And that is basically it as far as descriptions go!
Now onto the important bit, the sound!
I only have an iPhone 4, so that is all that ever gets used with it. I have found that you need to turn the volume on the phone up to about 80% to get a decent volume out of it.
Once I got the volume right, the sound on it was surprisingly good, not tinny and light like other speakers I have tried.
The sort of music I listen to is Counting Crows, Oasis, Coldplay, and Christian praise music, wh...more Altec Lansing Orbit Price Comparison

Let me introduce you to a little fellow with a big voice. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Altec Lansing Orbit! A 40mm diameter speaker that fits into the palm of your hand but can fill a room with a big sound thanks to a full bodied 360 degree sound with a nice rich bass tone, considering it's a portable speaker, this is a real bonus and makes it a far better choice than many in the same price range. I mostly use mine for my work pc but I do plug it into my mp3 player when I'm working alone, but hey... don't tell my boss! So equally fine for health & safety modules or The Ramones! It takes 3 x AAA batteries, I would ... Read the complete review

This is a review I originally wrote on Epinions.com I started travelling with work, so was looking for something to play my music through in the hotel rooms. Found this speaker in Tesco for £7 It is very basic in construction, but very well built from what I can see. It come with it's own neoprene case that you place it in and zip up. The bottom twists off and you add 3 AAA batteries. A single 3.5mm jack lead comes out from the bottom and there is a push button for power on the side.

The Altec Lansing Orbit is a speaker which can be used for a variety of different MP3 players and for iPod's. You plug the lead into where your headphones go and it provides sound out from the speaker which is placed on the top of the device. It has a flat base and overall is a very simple idea. The only control on it is the on and off switch which is used by turning the speaker round. For £25, it's a mid range portable speaker, but it's much easier to use and great for travel. Measuring up at just 400mm, it easily fits in your pocket making it a highly portable device. The volume is controlled by your iPod or MP3 player, which is unfortunate as ... Read the complete review

I recently bought this speaker on holiday, and to be honest they really suprised my at how loud they are!! however when the ipod is at full volume the speakers do crackle a fair bit but even at 3/4 vol they are sufficently loud for me. There is no volume control on the speakers them selvesso you need to be able to control them on the device. they also came in a case so they are protected and I believe them to be worth the money and i have told my friends to all buy them as they out strip some ipod speakers my dad and brother bought at fifty pounds. louder and better sound quality so I recomend them to every body. This single speaker i use with my iopd in the bathroom to . Read the complete review
