Electric Purple Bumpboxx Retro Pager<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I ordered my Bumpboxx Retro Pager Bluetooth\u00ae Speaker<\/strong> from Amazon<\/a> last week. I feel that the $89.00 USD price was a bit high, but I got it on credit, so it doesn’t hurt so bad. Also, paying that price is partially my fault. Had I bought it in black, it would have been $10 cheaper. Overall, I’m happy with it and its features. There are a few things I would have preferred, but that’s OK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pros<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Micro USB Power Port<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • TF Card (Micro SD) Card for mp3 Files<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Variety of color options<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Belt Clip<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Decent Sound<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Flashlight<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Cons<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Pager Sound Effect when powering on (It’s maddening and cannot be disabled)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • No Skip Button for mp3 Files (as far as I can tell)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • No Random\/Shuffle functionality for mp3 Files<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • FM Channel Scan is too fast (It would be near impossible to have enough time to recognize a song and stop the scan in enough time to actually stop on that channel)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Poor FM Reception<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Button Placement (It’s relatively difficult to press the clip to insert into your pocket without pressing random buttons)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      The likelihood that a user would actually utilize the card or the radio is low, I get it, but their low quality makes them near pointless. If you plan to use Bluetooth\u00ae only, you’re good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
