I have 3 SondBoks speakers….x2 v3’s. x1 GO.They would disconnect reguarly. Pairing worked like 70% of the time. During a party, the music ALWAYS stopped. And I had to re-pair them. And it was embarrassing. I upgraded firmware. Which, I might add, needs to be done like ALL the time. And it takes forever.With the new APP. I have not ran into the issues I did previously. Looks like they got their act together. Even if it took 2 years lol

I have two of the New SOUNDBOKS speakers, themselves huge improvements in accurate frequency response over previous models. Since the original release of the speakers, the improvements wrought through firmware and app updates have proven the developers are serious about the potential of the more powerful electronics in the speaker.My favorite improvement in 1.3.2 was a tweaking of the bass reproduction to minimize boominess evident in the original firmware. Together with the Indoor sound mode, this renders the New SOUNDBOKS useable in small rooms without overwhelming bass response.The biggest surprise was acceptable (20-40 ms) combined latency when played as a stereo pair over Bluetooth. This makes it possible to use a wireless audio pair for movie playback without excessive audio latency.Finally, being able to use a Bluetooth audio source while remotely controlling the volume of a New SOUNDBOKS with a second device allowed me to adjust volumes from the back of a large auditorium during a school movie night, as if I were at a remote soundboard. This is truly the wireless future, today!

App works great, especially with the speaker. Really great design, has always worked flawlessly. Same with the speaker, but thats not the review per say. One hitch though, this app should not under any circumstance require an internet connection to use. If i get logged out with no service i can’t use the app or like today when it updated i needed to create an account. Which would not have worked without service, ie no use of app. Big flaw in implementation for a speaker that goes everywhere fyi.

I love the speaker that’s 5 stars all the way. My favorite feature would be removable rechargeable batteries. On most brands speakers the batteries are built in and after a couple years of use they basically have to remain plugged in to be used. With the removable rechargeable batteries it eliminates that issue. The only issue I’m having is with the app it won’t find my speaker to the app. I can connect Bluetooth in settings of devices, just not to the app.
