I purchased this and four other brands/models because I wanted to hear with my own ears which ones were the best in this micro portable speaker category.
The ones I tried were:
X-Mini Max II Capsule Speakers (White)
X-Mini II Capsule Speaker (Red)
Satechi SD Mini Portable Pocket Speaker
iHome iHM60LT Rechargeable Mini Speaker (Blue Translucent)
iTour-POP Ultra Portable Rechargeable Speaker
I did not include the Altec Lansing iM-237 Orbit Speaker since it is not rechargeable.
Sound quality, on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the best of the group, and 1 being the built-in speaker in an iPhone or iPod Touch:
iTour: 10/10
iHome: 8.5/10
Satechi: 7
X-Mini II: 7
X-Mini Max II: 4
The iTour-POP wins it, no contest really. Amazing full sound and low distortion from a speaker this size. It's a little bigger in diameter than the others, but not as tall. Stays put, even at high volume. The next three all sound...Read more

Overall, it's a great product. Having owned another one of these speakers, we noticed these didn't open/expand as much as the others. We took a blow dryer to it & it expanded fully, but it didn't last. Regardless, it still works great!

Speakers looked very slick. When I tried to use them while they charged, the electronic noise was very loud. I tried them on a couple of PC's. When they finished charging, I tried them with my MP3 player and they sounded pretty good four about 30 minutes. Then one of the speakers quit and would not work anymore. Fourtunately the seller provided free shipping for the return and the refund was prompt.
Bad product. Good seller service.
