For its size, it's really a marvel that the Mini Boombox sounds as good as it does. At $100 you get wireless audio, a speaker for mobile phone calls, and a portable sound system for travel, and it does all of these things quite well.

The Logitech Mini Boombox doesn't offer sound quality — or style — on par with our recommended Bluetooth speaker, the Jawbone JAMBOX. However, at half the JAMBOX's price, it may be adequate if you're looking to free your music from your smartphone and don't want to deal with cables or spend more than you did on the phone. For under $100, the mono-only Mini Boombox provides decent sound quality, a usable speakerphone, and can run for up to 10 hours on its rechargeable battery.

The design of the door to our stand-up shower allows me to balance the unit on top of the door frame aiming into the shower (but above the shower head so it won't get wet). I...

Touch controls are nice for remote control of things like spotify (forward/back tracks without having to unlock my phone. It holds a long charge, volume is good (I've had several noise...
