Pros:
1. 5W (watts per each speaker) are about the middle range in sound output for speakers like these. They can get a little bit loud but not too much, depending on the audio source. Definitely better than my laptop's built-in speaker(s), and they don't become crackly or static filled when at full volume.
2. Variable RGB/LED lighting, and can switch between rainbow scrolling, sound reacting (which also slowly switches between colors when no sound is heard), static colors like blue, red, green, pink/purple, cyan, and off (while still powered and putting out sound or muted).
3. Buttons are included on the right speaker that allow manual powering on or off, enable manual control of volume, lighting, track selection (if supported by the device), and a play/pause button.
4. Relatively cheap in comparison with other speakers of the same class, and some of them don't even put out 5W of volume and cost even more.
5. Power AND sound are provided by a SINGLE USB type B plug-in (see pictures), eliminating the need for both a 3.5 mm headphone jack and USB port at the same time, unlike others in its class.
6. Made of Plastic (or something similar) but feel sturdy and well built.
7. Plug n' Play, so no messing around with software and updates and such when using with a PC/laptop.
Cons:
1. My biggest issue personally with this product is that when no sound is being played, they sometimes emit a faint "white noise" static sound that can be heard when close by and in a quiet room, place, etc. Not a fan of this power feedback.
2. As other reviews are saying, the cord between the left and right speakers is quite short, about 2-3 feet (see pictures). This isn't hasn't been problem for me really yet, but I can see how someone could easily have an issue with this if trying to place them between a monitor or large desk setup.
That's it. Nothing more is wrong that I can find with this product. I would give a 4.5 rating if I could for these issues, but since they are really great otherwise, and I can only select whole stars as a rating, I'm providing the full 5 stars. If you can get past the short adjoining speaker cord and feedback loop that causes very faint static sound (at least for me), then I highly recommend these speakers! Buy them and I doubt you'll be disappointed!
