Pros
- Multiple wired and wireless input options support different desktop sources.
- Included stands provide a ready-made desktop placement option and a stated 10-degree listening angle.
- App control combines playback and sound adjustments with customisable lighting.
Cons
- No water resistance is listed, so the speakers are not suited to damp or outdoor placement.
- The listed 2.75-inch mid-low drivers may not satisfy buyers seeking strong low bass without adding a subwoofer.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing is inconsistent about power: the technical details say “Battery Powered”, while the product is presented as a desktop active speaker set, confirm the power arrangement before purchase. The stated “40 KHz” frequency response and 70W power details are listing claims, not independently clarified measurements, the listing also calls the 70W figure both maximum output and 70W RMS total. USB-A is specified as an input in the feature text, while a separate general connectivity field lists USB, confirm the exact ports and charging arrangement for the selected unit. The explicit contents list names a pair of stands, cables and other items, check the selected listing for the exact bundle.
