Product Review - Ancord Bluetooth Shower Speaker w/ FM Radio

Ancord

Bluetooth Shower Speaker w/ FM Radio



⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of 5 stars

Today I’m going to tell you about the Ancord brand Bluetooth shower speaker. It has many wonderful features including an FM radio option, pairing with your Bluetooth to play music but also to receive phone calls, long battery life, optional 3.5mm aux-cable, an awesome shock-absorbing exterior, super powerful speakers and certified IPX6 rating.

First let me explain the IPX-6 rating and what it means. This speaker claims to be waterproof however in my experience to be truly waterproof it must be able to be submerged in water with absolutely no entry points for water intrusion. Devices that have this capability are awarded and IPX7 rating. To receive the IPX6 rating, one of the many tests that the device must endure and pass is having a minimum of three minutes of powerful water jets spraying at least 100 liters of water per minute all over the outer casing of the product without water leaking/penetrating. There are other various tests performed including dust test to ensure the product is sealed and completely dust tight.

So while I will not agree that this is “waterproof” persay, it IS however extremely water resistant. Meaning, it can be rained on, taken into the shower, rinsed off and could probably withstand being dropped in water for a few minutes. I would not recommend taking it with you into a swimming pool or bathtub.



The instruction booklet is very easy to follow and understand. Most of the time I end up with instructions written in foreign languages, none of which I can understand. You press and hold the power button and you will hear a brief chime indicating it is turned on and it automatically is set to be in Bluetooth mode. If you momentarily press and release the power button it will change to FM mode, which is what I used for my video demonstration.










The sound is fantastic! No complaints whatsoever. The speaker is strong and gives wonderful play back. You do have 12 hours of playtime with a full charge if you are in Bluetooth mode or if you select FM mode you will have well over 30 hours! Wow!


I love that it is shockproof. The casing is extremely durable and the silicone around the speaker helps to keep it protected when dropped or bumped. I love the strap as well. You can hang it in a shower, a bicycle handle, pretty much everywhere or in my case on the handle of my wheelchair. I think it’s perfect for camping, fishing or maybe if you’re just on the go at work or on campus.






I received one or more of the products mentioned above for discount or for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
