Great sounding unit, cheap build quality.
THE GOOD: Over all this unit sounds great. I have no complaints in that department.
THE BAD: The unit is not the most intuitive when it comes to navigating the device
THE UGLY: The quality of the build of this unit is questionable. Much of the unit's plastic components feel very cheap and prone to breaking.
If it was possible, I would rate this a 4.5/5
