Awesome utilitarian
It has a mic so I can use it to replace my MacBook's broken one, you can pair it with other one to achieve a stereo experience and has indeed an awesome bass response for its size, plus an aux input and a very useful hanging strap. These peculiar features placed it above from its price competitors.
