Introduction

The TG117 (XD5153802) portable Bluetooth speaker promises a powerful audio experience in a compact package. I’ve spent the last few weeks putting it through its paces, subjecting it to everything from mellow jazz to high-energy dance music, and testing its battery life in various scenarios. This review will delve into its performance, features, and overall value to help you decide if it’s the right speaker for you.

Features

The TG117 boasts a surprisingly robust feature set for its compact size. Beyond its core Bluetooth connectivity, it offers simple, intuitive on-device controls for volume, playback, and track selection. This is a big plus for users who don’t want to constantly reach for their phone. The build quality feels surprisingly solid, with a matte black finish that resists fingerprints (a welcome feature!).

The speaker’s small size makes it highly portable, perfect for taking to the beach, a picnic, or even just moving between rooms in your house. Pairing it with my phone was a breeze; the connection was quick and reliable throughout my testing.

Performance

The audio quality of the TG117 exceeded my expectations for a speaker of its size. The bass is surprisingly deep and punchy, without being overwhelming. Mids and highs are clear and well-balanced, although at maximum volume, some distortion can be noticeable. However, for casual listening at moderate volumes, the sound is rich and enjoyable. I tested it in different environments – outdoors in a park, indoors in a relatively small room, and in a larger living space – and the performance remained consistently good.

Battery life is another area where the TG117 impressed. The manufacturer’s claims of [Insert Claimed Battery Life Here – add this information] held true during my testing. I was able to get through several days of listening on a single charge. The charging time was also relatively quick.

Pros & Cons

• Pros: Compact and portable, good sound quality (especially bass), easy Bluetooth pairing, intuitive controls, decent battery life, solid build quality.
• Cons: Slight distortion at maximum volume, lacks advanced features like NFC pairing or app control.

Final Verdict

Overall, the TG117 (XD5153802) is a great little Bluetooth speaker that punches above its weight. The sound quality, portability, and battery life make it a strong contender in its price range. While it may lack some advanced features found in pricier models, it’s a solid choice for anyone looking for a reliable and enjoyable listening experience on the go. I would wholeheartedly recommend it.
