Why this deal matters
A lot of people go for mini Bluetooth speakers as they are generally cheaper, but they can be lacking in the audio clarity department definitely in the volume department due to the constraints of the size. If you can get something a lot more powerful for a similar cost, then it's worth considering a larger speaker, assuming you don't mind toting about something heavier. Plus, whenever anything is over half-off, assuming it's a good product from a reputable brand, we like to shout about it.
