Amazon.com Product Description
The Logitech mm50 Portable Speakers for iPod utilize 3-inch pressure drivers to maximize bass and minimize distortion, creating the full experience of home audio for life on the go. The use of 3-D sound processing also widens the stereo effect, so that this system’s sound seems to come from an area about two feet wider than the speakers themselves. The speakers are powered by an AC adapter or rechargeable Li-ion batteries, come with a credit card-sized wireless remote, and are easily compatible with all docking iPods. If you don’t have an iPod with a dock connector, just use the auxiliary outlet.
You also get a protective case and 2-year limited warranty that give you both security and peace of mind. Should you find yourself overseas with these speakers, the AC adapter is international voltage capable, truly letting you enjoy your iPod’s music wherever you go. The Li-ion batteries last up to 10 hours, and you can charge both the speakers and your iPod simultaneously.

Customer reviews
Buyer beware: Great sound but very poor design leads to battery issues 
I bought these speakers in White on Black Friday from another retailer. I chose them because I thought that they had the best sound for the money (after testing several sets). I haven’t been disappointed in the sound. However, I have been quite disappointed in the product design relating to battery usage. This design flaw causes the battery to be drained even when the player is not in use. So after not using it for a week, you’ll find that the battery is fully drained. This is of concern because the battery is not replaceable and will not take a charge after it has been fully drained after a finite number of times. Logitech knows this and their only solution is to tell you to plug it in at least once a week. No wonder they are cutting the price on this item. I wouldn’t be surprised if it is discontinued soon.
Good sound and portability 
I have 3 in my household and we love them all. The rechargeable batteries which I thought was just a novelty at first became one of its features that we really liked. Built solid and designed well, this thing just plain works! One minor gripe, the rechargeable batteries are not replaceable. If it does die later on, you just have to power it with the AC adapter all the time. I’ve had my first one for more than two years now and it’s still gives me about a 5-6 hour play time on a full charge.
Great sound
I shopped around a lot before purchasing the Logitech mm50. So glad I did! It comes in a great carry case, has a rechargeable lithium battery and the sound is GREAT! I wanted something that could play a little bass if needed and this does. The remote is a nice feature but only works up to about 10 feet away. Definetely recommend it.

I was absolutely amazed at the sound of this compact unit when I heard it for the first time, and I still am.
Good for my needs 
I use these to put gentle music on to relax. My husband uses them to play rock when he’s away on business. Either way, the sound is good. You have to remember to go into the EQ setting in your iPod to set the sound for small speakers or the sound is a little tinny. Overall, they are great for us.
