    Best Addition to Your iPad Environment

    I knew the Zooka was a winner when I first saw the Kickstarter Project page describing it. Kudo's to the developers -- it does just what they advertised it would do and then some by adding the "speakerphone" option. If you don't get any other accessory you need to get the Zooka!

    Unhappy customer

    Received my brand new speaker from Carbon Audio. Unfortunately I am very disappointed the speaker is producing a popping sound while connected to Bluetooth. I subsequently contacted Carbon Audio but the support has not been helpful.

    Nice for the price

    I picked this up at the Valley Fair Apple Store and it works great. Nice sound too. Great for a small room or office I found out that the Zooka's Bluetooth will only pair with one device at a time. I have both an iPhone and an iPad. I use home sharing to get my gigantic iTunes library playing through my iPad. So to pair my iPad with the Zooka, I turn off Bluetooth on my iPhone first before powering the Zooka on. Then my iPad finds it immediately. Streaming my iTunes library right now and I'm very happy.

    Nice, but not particularly loud enough

    This speaker is small and light weight making it super portable, however, the Zooka speaker is not particularly loud enough for me. I'd like to at least be able to hear it in the next room (on it's highest volume) if I choose. I owned a Logitech speaker a few years back that did the job more then this. I'm considering taking it back to the store in the morning.

    Surprisingly Good For Its Size

    • Written by from NORTHBROOK

    I bought my Zooka some months ago through Kickstarter and I recently took delivery from their first factory run. Excellent investment. The speaker feels solid (as does the detachable kickstand), it sounds surprisingly good even with classical music--making allowances for its size--and the Bluetooth pairing works without stutters or dropouts, even when I move the speaker from one room to another.

    Well made witht tinny sounding base

    Very well designed
    Fits solidly on Ipad
    Stand perfect angle for watching videos, typing and browsing
    Material quality exceptional
    Treble OK
    Bass sounds very tinny
    Bass worse than Ipad speaker
    Sound on the verge of unacceptable
    If bass were good, it would unequivicably rate 5 stars

    Poor product, worst customer service

    • Written by from Drummondville

    This speaker never actually connected with any iPad or iPhone for longer than 3 seconds, keeps disconnecting and often subsequently turning itself off. Customer service from Carbon Audio has horrible. I received a sorry it doesn't work, try turning it off and on again. No replacement or substitute offered...don't waste your money here.

    Awkward and heavy, sound quality and volume very poor. Difficult to attach to ipad and falls off easily. I bought this yesterday and am returning it today.
    A complete waste of money.

    Best for the money

    Have been playing with the Zooka for a few days now and I am very impressed. No, this is not going to make your whole house sound like a concert hall, but what are you expecting from something this size at this price point? It's very sturdy, I don't constantly worry about breaking the thing, the Bluetooth is seamless (someone mentioned that they could only connect one device, but I had my iPad and Andriod playing thru the Zooka at the same time today), and the grip on the iPad works perfectly and doubles as a great stand.

    The only complaint I have so far is that the volume, power and Bluetooth are on the bottom of the unit when using it as an upright stand, which can make things awkward.

    Great product and you can't go wrong for $100!

    Love this speaker. Easy to carry everywhere...Great Battery Life!!
    Took it to the beach last week-end, the sun came down and it was still running at full volume. Makes also a very cool looking stand for my iPad in my office.
    Great gift also, looks more expensive than it costs. Looking forward to more color ways or patterns.

    Great form factor - good for small groups

    • Written by from Darien

    There are several battery-powered Bluetooth speakers on the market now, but the Zooka is ideal when using an iPad with instructional videos for teaching one or two students. It's highly portable, easy to set up, unobtrusive and has good battery life. Plus you get clear stereo sound that you don't get from the iPad speaker. I use it with my iPhone as well for speakerphone calls.
