1Mii Computer Speakers for Desktop Laptop Tablet USB Powered PC Speakers Small Speakers Wired with Volume Control for

This speaker was exactly what I needed to turn up the volume in place of my feeble Windows laptop speakers. It's nice looking and doesn't have lights blasting your eyes like many speakers do (and who wants to look at a speaker, anyway?). There's only one small green power indicator LED next to the volume knob -- don't be misled by the product illustrations that make it look as if it has blue lights around the volume knob and speakers. It has a subtle, discrete shape that looks good without making a fuss about itself. The speaker's sound does a fine job for both the spoken word and for acoustic music. I notice much more musical detail (when listening to a singer with an acoustical guitar) than with my laptop speakers. I'm not an audiophile, but I find the sound very pleasant and not at all tinny. The volume knob is handy, and I have enough volume when sitting near the speaker, even for movies. The bass is not maximized, though, so if you like to blast your ears and body with really loud, immersive sound or you are not sitting near the speaker, you might prefer larger speakers. On my laptop, the 3.5 mm speaker jack is right next to a USB-A port, so it is very convenient to plug in, but it would also be easy to pull the plugs apart, separating the cord into two strands to plug into opposite sides of a computer. The cord is almost five feet long (58 inches, 150 cm). It's great to have USB power so you don't have to plug it into an electrical outlet or charge it, and it's also great to have a 3.5 mm plug so you don't have to bother with connecting to Bluetooth. I really like the simplicity. If there were one thing I'd change, it would be to have the cord come out of one of the ends rather that the middle of the back of the speaker, since I would like to position the speaker on its back, but I'm sure the current configuration suits most people. Combine all that with the low price (on sale for $11), and I'm very happy with my purchase. Read more

The media could not be loaded. We have thoroughly enjoyed this amazing little speaker and its affordable price. The sound quality is very good for the price, a little lacking in the higher frequencies, but that's OK because we didn't want it to be our main speaker or anything. We just wanted some background Gospel music or scripture reading. A little Christmas music in the background as we spoke in the living room. We have had it running almost 24 hours a day for a few weeks now, and it has run perfectly. It's plugged into our old iPhone which still had a headphone port, so it was perfect for this application. We have it powered via a USB block on our lamp, and it has worked perfectly. The size is perfect and it fits on our lamp as you can see from the photo. We are very pleased with the speaker, but honestly the best part about it is the large dial for the volume. It allows us to switch it off or turn it up and down in a tactile way without using menus or push buttons. It's really nice as you get older to have simple dials like this, because they aid in dexterity. It also seems very durable, I think it'll last quite a while. Read more

Use it with a pc where speakers died but head phone still work. Inexpensive but give a great sound for the money and powered by the USB connection Read more

Plugged it in and it works. Sound is really good, for a small computer speaker, I was pleasantly surprised. It sits under the monitor so it is not taking up extra desk space. Read more

I added this speaker to a gaming monitor, and it works great! It was so simple to connect, and it sounds terrific! Definitely a great value for the money! Read more

If you're looking for a low cost audio solution where previously you either barely got sound or couldn't get sound from a device at all, then this can fit the mold of what you're looking for. I think it's worth noting that your standard iPhone or Samsung Galaxy Android is probably going to outperform the volume of this. With my home's heating or air conditioning on, it's pretty difficult to hear the speakers unless you're within a 12" or 30 cm radius of it. Turned up to max volume, the speakers sound like they're at 50% of most commercial cellphone volume's output levels on the market. Listening to spoken conversations in media like film or video can be a chore. Overall the volume on these is quiet, like very quiet. Read more
