The CK811 can be quite loud for a room 20x20ft. For playing music, suits classical music but not rock music that have heavy bass.
With the latest competitive bluetooth speakers on the market, I would not pay more than $40 if I had to buy again. But for Skype conferencing or audio recording, the mic is quite choppy and you need to speak within 2 feet and directly facing the mic, which means it's not convenient for conference calls with people scattered in a room.
Once connected to the mp3 player, it remembers in future and automatically connects. I bought it for $50, which is ok for the bluetooth feature, but the audio quality is obviously very limited from its small size.
I bought this mainly to play music and lectures from my Samsung YP-T10 bluetooth mp3 player. Good for playing recorded lectures from my MP3.
The build is quite solid, though there is no Samsung name on the speaker or anywhere on the box or packaging.
Keep it on the ash tray most of the time,for music, but if I get or make a call I just pop it on the wheel and its so easy to hear and talk. I paid $66.50 for my first one, and got the bag with it, then got another for $49 for the house. When in the car at freeway speeds you need to mount it pretty close to the person using it, but love the strong magnet on the back of the speakers, I took a small piece of sheet metal and got some long tie straps and put it on my steering wheel. I love it, and for the price you can't go wrong.
The unit isn't bad sound wise. I was disappointed that when you plug in directly there is no volume control. I was looking for a compact bluetooth solution for traveling. I wasn't expecting much as I'm familiar with speakers this size.
Bluetooth always pairs readily with my laptop or cell phone (both Samsung). It's not for the audiophile, but the sound is certainly acceptable for the package. Lacks any bass, but sounds much better\louder than most speakers on portable devices. Nothing super special about them, but they work fine. Don't regret the purchase and would buy 'em again as long as it is inexpensive and you're not looking to wow your friends. It's cheap, too, so for the price it is a good deal.
Indicator lights are good (blue, orange, flicker status, etc). These speakers are OK. There is no Samsung label or anything that would identify it as Samsung. Convenient, no wires.
These speakers sound great but could have a little more base. The Blue-Tooth works great with my Samsung MP3 and the battery is long lasting.
