An unusual design is what first strikes you with the newiClever BoostSound BTS09 bluetooth speaker, but it's the sound that's more impressive, with its surprisingly rich bass. Powered by a 4000mAh battery, this distinctive speaker can last 8-10 hours on a charge and even has a slot for a MicroSD card if you want to use it without a device in the room.
Tech expert Dave Taylor of http://www.askdavetaylor.com/ checks out the iClever BoostSound and finds a lot to like, including the distinctive blue illumination ring in the back of the unit for mood lighting.

a wireless Bluetooth speaker that
0:01
actually looks cool let me tell you all
0:03
about it hi Dave Taylor here and we're
0:17
listening to the I clever Boost sound
0:20
bluetooth speaker let me pause it for a
0:22
second it's a pretty cool speaker now I
0:26
clever I know the more for making little
0:28
power adapters and chargers and that
0:30
kind of stuff so this is the first
0:31
speaker I'm aware of that they make but
0:33
it's really nice it's a heck of a nice
0:35
Bluetooth speaker actually it's running
0:38
Bluetooth 4.2 it has 20 watts of output
0:41
so it gets pretty loud it can fill a
0:43
room and there's a lot of bass going on
0:46
I know you probably can't hear with the
0:47
mic that I have connected and everything
0:49
but I can feel on the table the
0:51
vibrations of the bass from this music
0:53
and it's small it's portable it's about
0:56
2 pounds about 8 and a half inches
0:58
across and one of the cool things about
1:01
it is see the back the little blue you
1:05
can change it so you can actually decide
1:09
if you want and this of course is more
1:11
at nighttime if you want to have this as
1:13
your speaker in your bedroom
1:14
you can have a nice little blue little
1:17
mood lighting thing going on really nice
1:19
the front is aluminum and it's actually
1:23
all the dots if you were to look super
1:25
closely it's a spiral if you look really
1:28
closely you will become hypnotized and
1:31
while you're hypnotized go ahead and I
1:33
know you want to click on the subscribe
1:36
button you want to subscribe to my
1:40
youtube channel so that you can see all
1:42
my videos ok we're back
1:45
good so eight and a half inches across
1:47
and there's its white plastic on the
1:51
back but it's it's sort of a rubberized
1:53
plastic it has a nice feel to it and it
1:55
seems like it's gonna be easy to clean
1:57
if it gets dirty and let's see what else
1:59
can I tell you along the top there are
2:03
multifunction buttons so you don't know
2:05
it from looking at them there's power
2:07
mode I'll tell you why in a second
2:09
there's play pause and then there's
2:12
previous track
2:14
extract that also control volume and
2:16
what I mean by multimode is that for
2:19
example to turn the backlight off I
2:22
simply do short presses of the power
2:25
button to make the music louder I do a
2:29
long press of the forward or next track
2:33
button to go to the next track I do a
2:35
short putt push on it and that takes a
2:38
tiny bit of getting used to I think
2:39
there are probably some people who get
2:41
this and say there's no volume control
2:44
what the heck man but you just need to
2:46
learn how to use the buttons along the
2:48
top and once you get the hang of it it's
2:50
pretty darn easy and we turn the little
2:52
backlight back on because I like it and
2:54
on the bottom it's also worth noting is
2:56
that there are three little holes in the
2:59
bottom of this device one of which is a
3:01
microUSB for charging it is a
3:04
rechargeable battery of course the left
3:07
side has the aux port or connector and
3:11
in the middle is a micro SD card and so
3:15
on the top we have the M or mode button
3:18
and the reason for that is because
3:19
there's three different ways you can get
3:21
music Bluetooth aux or the micro SD card
3:25
so depending on how you have music or
3:27
audio or audio book or whatever other
3:30
content you have depending on how you
3:31
have it coming into the device you can
3:33
use the mode button to step between them
3:36
and make sure you have the right one
3:37
selected now it has a pretty decent
3:40
battery it's a four thousand milliamp
3:42
hour battery which is bigger than you'd
3:44
get on like a samsung note 7 or the LG v
3:48
20 or even the iPhone 7 plus and four
3:51
thousand milliamp hours with this it's a
3:53
pretty big speaker and it's pushing a
3:55
lot of sound so that gives you about
3:57
eight hours of playtime and it takes
3:59
about two hours to recharge it now if
4:02
you're listening in the background
4:03
you're hearing my cat my cat is saying
4:06
hey how come you don't get speakers for
4:08
me man so we'll just have to tolerate
4:11
that so it's just under two pounds it's
4:14
about nine inches across you can either
4:17
think of it as a flying saucer maybe or
4:22
really I think it just looks like a
4:24
little table fan but the sound is really
4:27
what it's all
4:27
about and this thing sounds terrific and
4:30
my kids especially they're really
4:33
enjoying having it with Bluetooth and
4:35
being able to like put it on the counter
4:37
in the bathroom while they're showering
4:39
apparently listening to music while you
4:41
shower is the thing don't do it myself
4:44
but they must be right and it's also
4:46
pretty reasonably priced so this I
4:49
clever boosts sound Bluetooth speaker
4:52
will set you back
4:53
normally 99 bucks but right now it's on
4:56
sale at Amazon for $79.99 at amazon.com
5:00
now I don't know by the time you see
5:02
this video whether that'll still be true
5:04
but I would definitely check it out and
5:06
