Editorial Review
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.

Here is what people are saying about the Logitech mm50 Portable Speakers for iPod (White)
3 Star Rating  "Does not charge Nano Gen 4 and later, or Touch, or iPhone" 
- Reviewed By An Amazon User from MD, USA
I bought this unit many years ago. Sound quality is OK. The only thing that it does not charge my new iPod Nano and iPod Touch. It still plays the sound, though.
 
5 Star Rating  "Excellent" 
- Reviewed By An Amazon User
I used for a long time now. It's excellent for my needs. Obviously you can't use it for a party, but in small and not crowded places it sounds great.
 
5 Star Rating  "Best Portable iPod speaker system available!!" 
- Reviewed By An Amazon User from Kentucky
OMG - very nice in White. The sound with the surround option is amazing. So much music from a small space. It makes me love my iPod Touch even that much more. Portable - I have gotten upto 6 hours on high volume. Music on the go without a plug, it is truely amazing! Everyone should have one.
 
2 Star Rating  "Avoid these speakers! (Plus Logitech vs. Altec Lansing)" 
- Reviewed By An Amazon User from Tiburon, CA United States
First and foremost, I'm a real consumer not a paid reviewer who is going to gush about speakers. So here it is, straight-forward, short and sweet:

Logitech MM50
Pros: Amazing, amazing sound quality for such a little device. It even has a "surround sound" mode that really does make you feel like your listening to huge, high-end speakers.

Cons: The power button is easily depressed, meaning that when packed away and traveling, it can turn itself on (even their new models have this flaw). There is no switch or defined button to avoid this problem; it's definitely a design flaw. (Imagine the Ipod without the power lock on/off switch and you know what I mean.) Additionally, there is a built-in battery. That means you can't replace it (see google for all the people that have tried). The battery life is waaaay too short without being plugged in, so you can't take this to the beach, etc. to truly enjoy. Lastly, because of the power switch defect, the system runs it's battery out all the time, and without some juice in there the system doesn't work EVEN WHEN PLUGGED IN. You have to wait 15-30 mins, charge, and then use with the plug; not fun if you want music now.

The Logitech MM50 made me pull my hair for a year, but the only reprieve was the sweet sounds it made. Now, the battery is done for good, and I went out and upgraded to...


Altec Lansing inMotion IM 3
Pros: Very, very good sound. Not quite as good as the Logitech MM50, but barely noticeably different. It took me a while before I noticed some slight nuances in the sound quality, it's that close. Replaceable batteries!! That's right, you can buy your own batteries at the grocery store, even rechargable ones, put them in, hit the beach, park, whereever, and have great sound that lasts! Additionally, the system has TWO very defined on/off switches so the system can't accidently turn itself on. It's so simple yet genius compared to Logitech.

Cons: No "surround sound" feature. It hits base notes and others well, but you won't get overwhelmed with it's sound. It's still very impressive and slightly smaller than the Logitech MM50.

So there it is, good luck in you're buying!
 
2 Star Rating  "Sounds good, charging setup terrible" 
- Reviewed By An Amazon User
My mm50 sounds very good and I have absolutely no problem with its sound quality. What I do have a problem with is the way it's powered. Rechargeable batteries are okay if they last a fairly long time. The charges on my mm50 have lasted for as little as 4 1/2 hours--a very short time. Logitech says that the charge can be as long as 10 hours but mine never have been close to that length of time. The dock generally takes about 6 hours to recharge. In other words, the recharge time of the built-in battery is just about the same as the play time. I've been informed by Logitech that the battery is not replaceable. When it finally dies, my only recourse is to buy another dock.

If the mm50 is idle for a week or so and I then try to use it, the battery is often dead--even though it was fully charged previously. All in all, the disadvantages of using this iPod dock far outweigh its good sound. I just purchased an Altec Lansing iM310 dock and I'm very pleased with it. Not only does it sound as good as the Logitech mm50, but it's powered by either three AA batteries or an AC wall adapter. The batteries have lasted about 24 hours so far and I expect them to continue quite a bit longer. And when they eventually die, all I have to do is replace them with new ones or plug the dock into the wall. No more waiting long periods to power batteries that don't last very long. If I knew of the limitations of the mm50 sooner, I never would have bought it--or any other device with batteries that must be recharged often, take a long time to recharge, and can't be replaced once they're dead.
 
4 Star Rating  "Lovely Little Device!" 
- Reviewed By An Amazon User
I have really enjoyed this device. I keep it in my kitchen and crank it up when I am cooking. Even when I turn it up to it's highest setting the bass is not distorted. I often bring this system to the beach and it works really well. I would recommend this system.
