WOWee One Power Bass Portable Speaker for iPad, iPhone, MP3 Players, Laptops, Mobile Phones, and Personal Game Systems (Black)

 (101 customer reviews)

I've had the Wowee One for a little while now, and I've used it in every possible situation I can come up with. This is a great little product that gives some heavy duty sound.

I bought the Wowee One after seeing it reviewed on Engadget. I leave all my music/podcasts on my phone, and I'm constantly streaming music from Pandora, so I wanted something extremely portable that would give clear, audiophile quality sound. The Wowee One looked like the perfect solution.

First of all, let me say I couldn't be happier with my purchase. This is one of those products that you can't really appreciate until you see it in person. Every one of my friends has asked to borrow it just to try it out, and every one of them has ordered their own.

When I first opened the Wowee One and connected it to my Palm Pre with Pandora streaming, it sounded very muffled. I was really disappointed, until I realized I hadn't taken off the plastic cover (duh!). Once I took that...Read more

Very nice to find a product that is "as-advertised". Quality build, professionally presented in very nice, well-designed case with holders for everything (nothing falls out when you open it.) Definitely created by guys who use cool toys like this. But its more than a toy. It's a tool.

Read other reviews and you'll get some cool ideas of how to maximize it: put it on an inner tube at the beach, or a closed toilet seat lid in a hotel room (!), or a bedside table, or use the Wowee Pad to attach it to a window or sliding door (with AMAZING results.) Or do like one person and carry a small Tupperware container and set it on that. (I tried that on a small one and it resonated very well-- Led Zeppelin sounded excellent!)

I've tried and owned several smaller, portable speaker systems and none compare to the Wowee One. They just don't have the capacity for bass so you never get the full-throated range of the music that the artist intended you to have. Wowee One delivers...Read more

Unlike the other reviews, I've bought this on Amazon and actually use it for a while. The built quality is pretty decent - feels solid, plastic surrounding with gel like surface at the bottom. The device is automatically powered on as soon as you plug in the 3.5mm plug and turns off when you unplug it. The sound quality is mediocre at best, the power bass as advertised is near non-existence. It's supposed to vibrate the surface to give you the feeling of a subwoofer but you can't really hear it. If you place it on a hollow or thin surface such as a glass tabletop, you'll feel the vibration, but if you use it rock solid office desk like myself, you won't feel a thing. Obviously it sounded better than the built-in computer speaker but the retail price tag is unjustifiable for its sound quality. I would say the device is probably worth less than half of its retail price.

I forgot to mention that there is a fairly loud hissing noise as soon as you plug in the 3.5mm jack so...Read more
