Polaris V8 - 9W(4.5W X 2) Portable Bluetooth Speaker with FM-radio, Micro SD MP3 Player, NFC, LED Display and Removable 18650 Li-ion Battery (GREEN)

These are so KEWL! Yes it has Bluetooth, yes it has a line input, yes it has an FM radio, but what I LOVE about this is it also plays from a Micro SD card! I don't want to screw around enabling/pairing with Bluetooth and a phone. I want convenience and this is it! I load my CDs onto the card and I have my own personal Robot Radio! I turn it on and it plays from where I left off. It's interface is very basic. You can fast forward/rewind and skip or go back but that's it. I've got 50 CDs loaded on the card and it plays the first song from each CD, then the second from each CD and so forth. No more hearing the same crap over and over as you do with radio! One more thing...Customer Service is OUTSTANDING! I bought SIX of these, four for Christmas presents. The company notified me with each purchase about a possible issue. One of mine had the issue. I notified them and they sent a replacement, not even asking for the previous one! If you rely on itunes or have to ask how put music on a Micro SD card then maybe you should pass. Then again, you shouldn't be anywhere near a real computer anyway.

I have been looking for a decent portable speaker which I could easily carry along with while travelling.Recently, I purchased Polaris V8 Portable speaker. Overall, it has not disappointed me.The size is excellent, small and easily to pack on your rucksack bag when travelling.Speaker sound performance is quite good - of cause not surround..! may be Stereo.But you will love its clarity and bass unlike other speakers which vibrates under high bass levels.The radio signal reception is excellent, no need of external antenna. The body aesthetic is excellent, I think the rubber gives it good protection against falls. The battery performance is good, it easily gives you non-stop 7 hours of moderate play - volume level 10.My only question and may be suggestion is why not include digital clock on this gadget ? Already it has a digital display for FM channels and Song selection. Clock/Alarm would definitely complete its whole purpose as a portable entrainment device.Compared to its pears out there in market, Polaris V8 portable speaker is worthy the price tag. I strongly recommend it if you are looking for a portable entertainment gadget

bought 2 of this, one for each of my kid's room. Love, love love it. There're cheaper speakers but I wanted something that had more bass, not just all treble and this was absolutely great. I wish it had an auto-shut-off feature so as to save battery life but other than that.....really a good purchase.

Works fine, but I can only get three radio stations and it eats through the batteries. I live in a major metropolitan area so I should be able to get lots more stations, but it scans right past them all.

Nice sound. Easy to use once you read the instructions. It would be good if instructions weren't needed - that the buttons were more intuitive or labeled. The bluetooth connected easily to my Samsung Galaxy phone.

I wish it was waterproof. Other than that it's a great speaker and works well. The British voice is a bit hard to understand with the auto prompts.

Works great, for such a small size speaker it has a big sound! No complaints.Love the portability, and the posh accent it has when you switch between modes--Lol! :)

I was looking for an FM radio and speaker to play music from my iPod or phone and this completely fit the bill. I can leave it or take it with me from room to room. Good sound quality and the battery life meets expectations. I've been using it almost everyday for the past month since I bought it with no complaints. Yes, the voice is kinda weird but not bothersome.
