I don’t buy in to reviews like those. These kind of 1-star reviews are by technologically impaired folks who can’t figure out why a new battery-operated thingy doesn’t work.
I’ve had stereo speakers and ear buds that do the same thing they’re complaining about, UNTIL YOU FOLLOW THE FREAKIN’ DIRECTIONS! Then they work fine. None of them actually addressed the sound quality.
@ParadigmShyft@therealjrn Same to both of youse- I’m always looking for my next BT speaker to put on the pile of “I used to like this one bests”, and if you’re going to post a review at least be detailed on what you have to say- and DO try following the directions if you can’t get them to work any other way.

Great Bluetooth stereo speakers.
Could use more bass but you can place them in each side of the room to feel it with sound.
Open box selling for $9.99 + $8.13 shipping [to my zip].

just like everyone else…only one speaker will power up and link. returning tomorrow for hopefully a bluetooth speaker that actually works.
★1 out of 5 stars. Bill · 4 months ago
I saw a complaint that only one speaker paired. I had the same problem. I’m going to return it. What a waste of my time. Why sell something that just doesn’t work?
★1 out of 5 stars. Someone needing music · 7 months ago
Only 1 speakers connects, had to return. Looked for other reviews online or advice on how to connect the other to avoid returning but no luck…
✘ No, I do not recommend this product.
Especially hurtful a they’re selling them for $39.99

Like I said in another thread above, 1-star reviews like that tend to be techno-tards. They probably work fine if you read the pairing instructions.
The ebay review is actually promising to me, based on the implied range. That’s where I’ve seen speakers like this fail. And they usually take their base from the surface they’re on.
Typically one speaker (eg the Right one) pairs with the Left and then the Left pairs with th BT source ( e.g. Mobile phone). Left splits the BT packet stream, plays the.left channel and passes the.right stream to Right. I’m hoping some with more tech details will fill them in below
What happens to the ability to purchase yesterday’s item for VMP’s? Does this mean they sold out? I’m in a different time zone than normal and lost track of the cutoff while thinking about it.
Not a “techno-tard,” and I still read the directions and they STILL did not work. Neither had power to pair when I rec’d them, so I charged overnight and nothing. One of them also had a huge black smidge on it, that eventually rubbed off. Maybe they were originally at CVS, bought and returned twice, then sent back to manufacturer, and then sent to me. Hmmmm. No, probably just a crappy product.
The iJoy speakers do not sync with each other and the base is poor in the one speaker. I attempted several times to pair both but was unsuccessful. I plan to look for a solution but if anyone has a suggestion, please post.

Meh-Tastic! X2
Can I put these 6 ft apart so they meet the suggested distance requirement?
Also bonus points for mentioning the Volta too.
@vinuash Yeah, I was delighted to see that they’re real. Time to listen to some delousing.
See, now this write-up and product are classically mediocre fare. Not that shirt comic thing hyping goods over at mediocritee.
Btw, there are THREE shirt versions on sale at mediocritee now, but only for a few hours. Then we get brand new ones. At mediocritee.
I CAN’T WAIT. mediocritee
@stinks @vinuash why can’t i buy both for $21?
ಥ﹏ಥ
@stinks @vinuash NVM if i add both it drops the price

Some of the pictures look silver metallic, which is cool. But not available. NOT cool.
Specs on Groupon says “Made in United States”!
I don’t believe it
NoJoy for the iJoy at CVS

@therealjrn At least it’s unanimous
@therealjrn You must have just squeaked on in front of my post…
@PhysAssist A 5 minute squeak. But yours was more detailed. That hand crafting takes time

@ParadigmShyft HOW CAN YOU ACTUALLY ADDRESS THE SOUND QUALITY IF THEY WON’T WORK?
I’m just messing with you.
I already have enough BT speakers.
@therealjrn YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MANY TOOTHY SPEAKERS!!!
Eh, they all had sound out of 1 speaker. Good enough to get a sense of crispness, highs, lows, etc.

@PhysAssist Maybe the first reviewer bought it, returned it, CVS put it back out on the shelf. Then the second reviewer bought it, returned it…

In for 1 pair.
These look good. What’s the catch? Oh, only one speaker pairs.
At least we know the Meh buyer is still working to find the scraps others throw away.

@jmrobinett Sold out early.
@jmrobinett @Lighter I should say so! It was Sold out at 4:58pm ET. Only had 80 tho.
@Lighter @therealjrn I guess I didn’t need one after all!
Knives the other day and now Bluetooth speakers? I’m getting all nostalgic here.
@Fuzzalini maybe they still have some JBL speakerdocks floating around somewhere?
@Fuzzalini To me, knives only count here when you can break 'em down to fit in your pocket… [or if they come with there own [e.g., sheath]
Oh snap, you mentioned one of my favorite bands and albums. Almost was gonna buy it because of that. Until I saw the CVS reviews
Bought these last time. I always thought of myself as a manly man with big ear canals, but I couldn’t get these earbuds to stay in.
Look cool. Which I didn’t have a gazillion BT speakers.
My speakers arrived dead. Don’t light up when I turn them on or plug them into the charger. Hope I can get a refund
@patbarrett1 Same
@bjvangundy @patbarrett1 contact support
I received my speakers. Only 1will pair at a time. No stereo. Why sell something if it doesn’t work as advertised?
Garbage. They don’t work on three out of 4 of my things. phone ok, pc not, laptop not, tv not( almost).
Not a “techno-tard,” and I still read the directions and they STILL did not work. Neither had power to pair when I rec’d them, so I charged overnight and nothing.

One of the speakers does not work
