TIBO Choros 4 |Wi-Fi & Bluetooth Speaker | Multi Room Hi-Fi Speaker with Internet Radio | Grey

As with anyone suddenly working from home, I needed to upgrade my home office and since my belosed Bose SoundLink battery gave up I decided to go on the hunt for a spare speaker.After quite a bit of time looking into it and because most of my music is located on a home server, I decided I wanted a WiFi speaker but since I did not want to invest the money in a Sonos type thing and went looking for the lesser known brands and stumbled upon Tibo speakers.I settled on the Chora because it was portable and on offer...So for the price I got a very portable speaker that does have WiFI, Bluetooth and line in connection.Observations:* Sound quality is ok, lacking bass a bit.* Portability is great* Connectivity is great* Battery life is good (barely used it for more than 2h though)* App is basic but using the HiFiCast app instead it fits my needs.* Range covered is good* I can pair a other Tibo speaker to it (I bought a refurbished one for the living room)* The voice when you power the speaker up is annoying.On top of that the seller is super responsive and did help me out.So very happy with my purchase.

The speaker gives reasonable quality sound compared with its low price. The (Android) app to control it however is limited beyond belief, slow and it is due to the limitations of the app that I think two stars is a fairly generous judgement of the kit.I wanted a wifi speaker for my dusty and often damp workshop. My music is streamed from a NAS unit and I listen to BBC national radio (4 & 3 mainly). The cheap Bluetooth speaker I had in my workshop didn’t give access to my music files and radio streamed over my phone was fine apart from the Bluetooth range restrictions.The Chloros Porta looked promising: wifi, internet radio and Bluetooth all headlined in the sales pitch and a price of just short of fifty pounds.Internet radio is delivered by TuneIn but although BBC local radio is supported none of the BBC national stations are accessible. So you can listen to BBC Radio Aberdeen down to BBC Radio Guernsey and all points in between butBBC Radios 1 – 6 ARE NOT AVAILABLE.Extremely disappointing for this would be listener.Music streaming across wifi from files on the NAS is possible and albums can be selected from the alphabetical list presented by the app on your phone. Albums cannot be searched for directly and there is a clunky pause between requesting the next alphabetically ordered screen from the previous one. When using this speaker I think I will be playing mainly Adele, Al Green and Alicia Keys but life is far too short to want to select any Wagner, Yolanda Brown or Zero 7.It truly is an awful and limited functionality app in my opinion and so bad that I would not recommend buying this otherwise adequate speaker.

I bought this speaker after reading other peoples reviews and watching Tutorials on Youtube and I am so glad I decided to go with a Tibo product as the sound and quality of these speakers is amazing and they are no light weight when it comes to producing crystal clear sound and offering you a simple and easy to use App to control and play music from your Music Share (NAS) or the music streaming services such as Spotify, Tidal, or Napster etc.I have also setup my local radio stations on the 5 presets which was so easy to do via the App.Overall I am very impressed with the speakers quality / build and the sound quality this speaker can produce.If anyone is looking for a great Wireless Speaker you don't have to look far as these Tibo Speakers are fantastic Hi-Fi Speakers and I am sure you won't be disappointed with the quality and sound from these speakers.

Update:Having had these for a few months I have to change my recommendation to avoid. They are prone to losing their setup data, requiring a time consuming reset. Stereo pairing is flaky in the extreme, again requiring reset and the app has needed a delete and reload on a number of occasions.Sad to say these need a lot more development to be worthwhile. If I could I would return them.-------------------------------------------------Arrived in a couple of days direct from Tibo. Easy to set up out of the box. Build quality seems pretty good, especially at the price.Works a treat with the NAS DLNA server and over the home wifi. App is a bit basic but does the job.Sound is good for the price but desperately needs an equaliser or a bass/treble control. Far too bass heavy and wooly. If you like a lot of bass from a small speaker and all that involves then this is for you. Tibo have seem to have been promising treble/bass for a couple of years now from the questions section. Time to deliver!

I like to listen to European radio but the European stations are no longer on TuneIn radio and you CAN'T set up a station using it's URL. I like listening to Spotify but you'll need a Premium account to play songs over the speaker. I had problems syncing my phone with the speaker and had to use an alternative method. I'm relatively happy with the speaker because I can connect my phone to it via either wifi or bluetooth but I cannot use it as a stand alone internet radio. For £29.99 it's good. I'd imagine all internet radios uses TuneIn Radio & Spotify wil have the same issues.

Sound quality is at best okay much to be expected for the price.The issues with the speakers though are connectivity. bluetooth is awful and crackly.Wifi connection drops out all the time and for no obvious reason. The biggest issue for me though is that having bought 2 for multiroom use the speakers decide at will to sync up into a group despite me unlinking them numerous times. the problem is when it does this it cuts out. product should be avoided at all costs
