As good as I expected

I bought this like 2 ish months ago and I'm very happy with it. It sounds good, it can get loud when I want it to but I mostly keep it pretty quiet. Best part is the battery seems to last forever. Only complaint is about the charger it that comes with it.
The charging port is USBC, so it comes with a USB to USBC charging cable, but the USB part is different from anything I've seen and it's not compatible with anything I have. (A pic is included.) This isn't an issue if you already have devices that need USBC to charge (which doesn't everyone nowadays?) but on the off chance you don't you might need to buy a charger for it.
I bought this for my wife since she kept taking my JBL Charge 4 because her cheap blue tooth speaker sounded horrible and wouldn't last long on a charge.
If you are wanting to personalize this speaker, just don’t. Save your money and get the plain one. I ordered this speaker for me to have while at work and the first day I had it, within an hour I noticed the print scratched off somehow in an area. Throughout the day, being VERY careful with it, somehow more print scratched off of it. If literally anything touched this speaker the print comes off and just looks white underneath while showing the threads the outside of the speaker is made of. I complained and they had me send my speaker back for a re-print on it. Got it back, same issue. Print literally peeled off on a few areas on this one and again, some scratched off somehow. Eventually it will probably just be an ugly white speaker once the images come completely off. I regret personalizing this speaker for sure. The speaker itself is good quality and is nice and loud.

After about 4 months of using this speaker with my computer only a handful of times, it stopped connecting to the bluetooth on my computer. It works on all other devices, so I thought maybe the computer was the problem. But after hours with tech support on both ends, everything points to the speaker. I would have disconnect and reconnect every time I wanted to use it with the computer. Now it's not working at all with the computer. I've never damaged it, no water spills and it's just way too expensive to be doing this. I would really recommend looking elsewhere if you want one that actually works the way it should. Very disappointed.
