Fanny Pack with Bluetooth Speaker, Asyoren Portable Bluetooth Speakers, 10W Louder Volume, Crystal Clear Stereo Sound, Rich Bass, IPX7 Waterproof,...

I returned the first one thinking that I received a faulty speaker, but the second one was the same. I have to return them both. The speaker makes a constant terrible staticky sound. It reminds me of the sound of interference when someone ran the microwave while someone was talking on a wireless home phone. This will not work for audiobooks and podcasts. Then I tried it with music and the speaker crackles and pops pretty badly. The speaker does get nice and loud. The bag itself is really nice so I am disappointed.

There is something wrong with the manufacturing of the speaker. This is the third fanny pack that I know of, that the speaker doesn't work the way it should. There is small static sound, or clunky sound that comes from the speaker when you are playing anything. After three tries, each fanny pack has something different wrong with the sound of the speaker. However, the fanny pack itself is great. If it did not have the speaker, it would be a good fanny pack.

I bought this for my childs music teacher who wears a Fanny pack always. He loved it!

Design is interesting. Kind of right in your face with the speakers. Personally I might have down played the speakers visibility and just had a simple fabric covering. Luckily when I first turned it on it was in pairing mode. There is a rubber flap that covers the USB charging port which is great. However when I tried to find the Pairing to try and pair it to something else it was a matter of completely unzipping the speaker. This was problematic because the way the zipper is arranged around the speaker it was very hard to get the zipper realigned again to close it up. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to get it closed again. Luckily I got the zipper threaded and closed again. Fabric on the pouch is thick and ostensibly water resistant. I sprinkled some water on it and the water beaded up and did not absorb. The pouch is nice and large and there is also a small zippered inner pouch (keys, phone, etc.) The back of the pouch has a bit of padding to add a bit to the comfort of it resting on the front of your hips. Pouch strap is large enough and probably fit a man's 36-38. The sound is not bad for what it is. Gets loud enough for 2 people walking side by side. (Not sure you want to walk around with a concert blaring from your hips. Feedback from my partner was that this thing is situational when there aren't other people around because it would be pretty rude to be blaring music as you walked/hiked on a shared path.) Sound quality is just okay, not superlative, not scratchy and tinny. If you don't want to wear earphones/head phones or are wanting to share music with a friend then this might be your option. Only 4 stars because think they could have done a better job on making the pairing button more accessible without having to take the speakers completely out of the enclosure.

Bought for a friends bday, she loved it . Speaker sounded good. Good quality bag. Would buy again .
