Only way to get good portable laptop sound 
2008-07-10
Listening to movie downloads/DVDs on my Lenovo X61 was painful- until I got this little powerhouse. So small & light it really can fit in my laptop bag for carry-on. Flexible wand on this solidly built speaker lets me put it any position I need at the moment. Plenty loud enough w/o distortion for small group presentations. Sure, larger speakers have more bass, but they aren't portable enough for me and this is a pleasure to listen to when I am on the road and don't have to/want to use earphones. Also had a great customer service experience with JLab Audio that fixed a shipping glitch to my total satisfaction. Great product, great people.
A good buy! 2008-07-08
This product gives value for price. I can listen to music on my laptop now and really enjoy it.
It's Okay, Not Great 
2008-07-05
I give it 2 out of 5 stars. Read all the reviews. Ordered it anyway. Wish I had chosen something different.
Very Cumbersome 2008-06-18
I was hoping to get a sound that was a bit better on my laptop to listen to itunes. I plugged it in the the speaker was so top heavy it kept pulling out of the usb. After proping it up I started to play my itunes and the sound didn't come through. I checked all my settings and it wouldn't work. I have since returned the item.
I will say that the "ding" from my computer was pretty clear...
OSX 10.5.2 Leopard and JLAB - great! 
2008-06-01
I bought this unit despite some negative reviews, and.. I'm impressed! It's about 5x as loud as the internal speakers on the macbook (white). there were some audio/video sync issues with pre OSX 10.5.2 but its working great now! there was also some comments about 'preferred usb port' on the macbook - but after the OSX update both ports work perfectly.
its a small package, so don't expect the fidelity to be miraculous, but if you're traveling and watching movies in itunes, you won't have to strain to hear!

Good Stuff 2008-05-14
The stylish B-Flex is a compact stereo speaker with a USB flex cable. Easy to use, great for enjoying mp3's and DVD's, perfect for laptops and desktops!
Great until they broke! 
2008-05-03
I loved these little speakers. They're extremely easy & portable. I had been using them for about one year, up until yesterday when the USB connecter separated itself from the speakers. I guess the flexible wire was just a little too flexible and got worn out. Be careful!
Just what I needed 2008-02-15
These are just what I needed for my Thinkpad x60s. Now I can finally hear the movies and TV shows I download and watch with iTunes on my laptop while traveling! I recommend this item for anyone who needs a simple and inexpensive way to increase laptop sound when watching downloaded video.
Terrific Little Speaker with Clear, Strong Sound 2007-09-06
After reading several dozen consumer reviews describing laptop speakers I puchased this one. You simply plug it into your laptop, or USB hub, swivel the gooseneck to position the speaker where you want, and you've got an excellent speaker that fits in a small laptop utility bag.
The only complaint I have is that there is no quick volume control; once you've plugged it into your USB port, it overrides the laptop's volume control "knob". You have to open the volume icon in your Control Panel every time you want to adjust the speaker volume, which can be too slow when you're being blasted by a loud video.
This is not to say that there is anything wrong with the volume modulation in the speaker itself, just that there seems to be a wide volume range across items I view--YouTube, email messages with videos from friends, etc.
If this speaker had a volume control knob it would be perfect!
NOT RECOMMENDED FOR DELL LAPTOPS 
2007-09-02
After several weeks of light, mid-volume use, the speaker stopped working on my Dell Latitude D500 and I began receiving error messages noting a "device malfunction". After trading emails with J-Lab customer service, I was instructed to return the speaker by mail (at my expense) for a refund. The refund I received was 80% of the original purchase price because, according to J-Lab, the device was still "working" upon receipt. The representative handling the return acknowledged that there has, in fact, been a history of compatibility issues with Dell laptops-- in other words, a "working" speaker may not always operate correctly when connected to a Dell laptop. Is trying this speaker on your Dell worth the risk of paying two sets of shipping charges, losing 20% of the purchase price, and spending time emailing representatives and repacking/mailing the device? If not, maybe it's worth considering alternatives.
