Although it may not be the newest portable speaker on the market, it may very well be the best. This, newer version of the HK GO+PLAY far exceeded my expectations in sound quality, build quality, volume and durability. It has a stainless steel handle with a quality fabric finish on the body. A battery life indicator on top with buttons that light up for better access at night time with little to no visibility, as this beast of a speaker will most likely last till night time and you'll need to see where the buttons are. The HK has a real room-filling sound, that is no exaggeration. With a deep bass that doesn't distort no matter what the volume you'll be the life of the party, or the savior if the power goes out.
I see this particular speaker as the iPhone of portable speakers. Best in class, minimalistic, looks expensive, as it should for $400 and does exactly what is advertised, give you the best sound imaginable from a handheld speaker. It might be expensive, but It is worth every last penny, no doubt that it will bring you great joy for years to come.
Another great feature is the ability to connect two GO+PLAY speakers to each other, subsequently doubling the power you have at your disposal. Now I doubt anyone would buy 2 of these, but maybe a friend has one of these as well and if that is the case, you guys (or girls) can start a streetside party as you can connect up to 3 devices to the speakers at once, making taking turns playing music much easier.
I cannot recommend this speaker enough. It is in a class of its own and has near perfect reviews everywhere I look. If you're addicted to music this is a must for you. Don't miss out on this amazing product, go to your nearest electronics store and test one out, you have nothing to lose.
Thank you for reading this review of one hell of a speaker, if you disagree with any points or think there's a better speaker feel free to let me know in the comments, and as always
Have a wonderful day!
