Portable Tunes with Earjax Echo
I believe I’ve mentioned before I have a problem with earbuds. I can never seem to find a pair that fit the way I like them, stay in while exercising and produce good sound. At least not in my price range. On the rare occasion that I do find a decent pair, they inevitably break and the search begins again. I may have found a solution with my new Earjax Echo Bluetooth Speaker.
It looks a bit like a pepper or salt shaker, but don’t let that fool you. Its unique design is what contributes to it’s portability. Only one button to deal with: the power button. Next to it is a status LED and microphone for when the phone rings while you’re rocking out (although I’d look a little silly talking into a table accessory). You connect to the speaker by one of two methods, either by auxiliary input or via Bluetooth.
Connecting was a breeze with the iPhone discovering it in just a few seconds. Connection is confirmed on both the iPhone and by the blue LED on the speaker. Volume is controlled by turning the top in either direction, much like a pepper mill (there’s that comparison again!).
How portable is it? It’ll go just about anywhere and with the soft surface it isn’t likely to slip out and drop. Take a look at this video to see just how versatile it can be.
Another nice design touch is the ‘one wire’ concept. The same included cable charges/powers your speaker and doubles as the aux in cable. The downside is you can’t charge and play via auxiliary at the same time.
The sound quality is much better than your phone speaker, which should be expected. It is missing the lows you get from good headphones but that isn’t the purpose of this unit. Portability is the focused feature and that’s where it really shines. As a nice touch Earjax also includes a silk carrying bag to protect it on the go.
Check out everything Bodyguardz has to offer (much more than just speakers) or follow them on Facebook and Twitter. I forgot to mention…the Earjax Echo is not very comfortable in my ears either… 😉
I think these would be so neat and handy.
This sounds like something I could use when I clean the house. It’s small so I would be able to bring it from room to room with me.
This looks great! We are always having dance parties at our house!
I have trouble with earbuds, too. They hurt me and give me an earache. I’ll have to consider a speaker like one of these.
I love this little speaker! It’s been used every single day since I received mine. I like using to watch movies, or play music while cleaning. I haven’t used it to answer a call yet.
I seriously need to get one of these! Thanks for the update.
I could use one of these!
we absolutely need something like this. my kids won’t give me my phone at home and I miss it. but frozen’s soundtrack is on my phone and nowhere else….
My husband would love one of these for his music!
This looks amazing. And useful, too. And small. Gee, 3 good things in one package!
My kids would be all over this. They are always trying to find ways to make their tunes louder. 🙂
I’m not a fan of earbuds either. It’s really uncomfortable and they don’t stay in well. I think this would be a good fix!
I like the size of these – not too big not too small!
I need a couple of these! One for me and one for my daughter.
That looks nice – we use bluetooth speakers all the time around here. I can’t use earbuds either, none of them fit in my ears!
PS: I like the way these are designed, the look is sleek!
Awesome! I have been looking for something exactly like this, and my husband brings it up constantly. Now I know just what to tell him!
I really love compact size of this. It makes it so much easier to take with you.
My husband loves stuff like this. He is all about the latest tech items.
My teenagers would love one of these! I’m always telling them to turn their speakers down before it blows!
I need this- what an awesome product!
Oh my kids would LOVE this!! I wonder if they’ve seen it… I’ll have to show them this.
This looks like a great product. I’d love it for when I travel or even at work! Thanks for sharing!
This is great! I need something portable, don’t want the kids to miss out on their Kidz Bop.
This Is AWESOME I Need To Get For My Son Great Features!!
We have been looking for a new speaker. Our last one just broke.
I’ve been hearing about Eajax for quite some time, but now I just might buy it one.
This would be perfect for me and i have never heard of them until now. Thank-You
