The issue is the volume jumps up massively at around 14. They are made it Taiwan. 0 vs their other versions like the U-GO which has BT 4. On one side of the packaging it says size 7. I had a problem with a previous pair of Bluetooth head phones where the signal would be lost when putting my phone in my pocket. Can easily fit 3 pair of shoes on the bottom shelf. The wife wanted to watch her DVD movies on a spare tv so I bought this compact player. a side-by-side comparison with the Bose really brings home the fact that UE hit a home run with these. Absolute waste of money. Arrived in timely manner.
