Any other languages available for the speaker? Only English for now?
I have it and thus far it is working slower than my previous V2. It is even more frustrating with it’s long lag.
I will take it back.
Its so sad it dosent have russian or Ukrainian language
A tiny speaker with a non-replaceable cable. At this price I will pass on this.
not worth! if your android phone is near , u cant ask to the speaker directly . 2 device react at the same time
