I bought the speaker today from a local retail and I've had good experience with all the features. Sound's good, controls are nice but i haven't tested how water proof it really is :P
Only issue I ran into was that when i plugged the device into my PC, there was a white noise always on and the noise only went up if I raised volume of the speaker, but PC settings didn't do anything to it. Turns out that the noise happened because I had both charge and aux cables come to the speaker from my PC. First i tried if it would detect the speaker just by the charge cable, but it didn't.
Fixed the issue by taking the charge cable from a different output and the aux in PC, then i didn't have the white noise anymore. I tried with a different charge cable, but it wasn't about it either. Haven't found a different way to fix it, but it works.
My daughter has a flip 3 and I was impressed. I bought the flip 4 and am just as impressed by the sound (vs. more expensive speakers). The battery seems to go a long time as well. Overall a very good speaker. I'd recommend getting two for better stereo sound outdoors.
I work in a loud environment, this speaker is very impressively loud I can hear my music through the loud machines that are running, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED GETTING ONE!!!
I bought this less than one year ago. It no longer works.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
