Rated 4 out of 5 by from Going back ? I think there is a "going back" here. By looking also the prices on the Charge 4 going down,the only thing that i can think of is that the one driver on Charge 4,yes giving 30watts but,doesn't giving too much more bass than the Charge 3. I think this model is a going back to 2 drivers again,same futures,same size same battery,except microphone as the Charge 3. I just got it on my hands and i cant tell its a nice option for this price,the only thing that bother me is what i told in the first place. PS Sorry for my english.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Stupid on / off sound that can’t be disabled I got this a couple weeks ago and it’s Intolerable that it’s not possible to turn off the on/ off sound. So loud! Utterly ridiculous. Wish I’d kept the receipt to return it.
