Bassboomz Portable Bluetooth Speaker

So I got the opportunity recently to review the Bassboomz portable bluetooth speaker and as much as I love new gadgets I was eager to proceed.

I received the unit earlier today while I was at work, thus the wife had already gotten hold of it before I managed to get home. She enjoys some of the gadgets almost as much as I do but I normally have to set them up first. As I said, my wife had already unboxed (half of the fun) the portable speaker and had it charging for me.

The Bassboomz speaker itself retails for around $130 US which while it seems a bit high to me is quite within the price realm of some of the other bluetooth speakers I’ve looked at, although a bit on the high side (more on that later).

The Bassboomz is compatible with your laptop, desktop, cell phone or tablet. Since you can hook up via line-in OR Bluetooth chances are you can use it with whatever you’ve got.

Inside the box is the bluetooth speaker itself, a standard microUSB cord for charging, a 3.5mm line and directions to get set up. It’s actually pretty easy to set up with or without them but it’s always nice to have easy to follow directions included.

Product Reviews

It’s been a while since I’ve done any type of product review here but I decided that it was time to throw the proverbial hat into the ring and start doing a few here and there. I don’t plan on doing many paid reviews anymore though and if I do you can be sure that it will be disclosed in the post.

Anyway, it’s not as if I post extensively any more. I would guess that about 90% of the content here is fed from my G+ feed as well as Twitter and Disqus.
