'Truly waterproof': This popular wireless speaker is only $38 — a splashy 70% off

What is it?

Sure, the weather might be downright frightful right now, but you can camp in winter — and the kind of wireless speaker you use makes all the difference for those types of outings. You'll want something small that can pump out the bass, and something that can handle a splash or two. For that, there's no better choice than the Vanzon V40 speaker. Lightweight and portable, with a range of up to 66 feet from its connected source, it makes a great stocking stuffer (especially at this wild sale price).

Why is this a good deal?

At over 70% off, this speaker is marked down to just $38 — from $130! That's on par with the lowest price ever, and combined with all the features it packs in? It's a definite steal.

Why do I need this?

An upgraded model of a speaker we've covered previously, it comes with bigger, better sound, extended playtime and more.

Thanks to an IPX7 waterproof rating, feel free to take it on that tropical vacay or use it in the pool come summer. If it falls in, no big deal — although you shouldn't leave it in the rain or shower with it.

It's lightweight at just 1.3 pounds, so it's great on the go (but it's also awesome at home to boost your TV's audio). The 3,600mAh battery provides up to 24 hours of total playback time on a single charge. You can connect to it through a 3.5mm AUX port, USB-C, Bluetooth and more.

We love that you can pair up to two of these speakers together for impressive, cinema-like stereo sound.

What reviewers say

More than 8,600 shoppers give this speaker a perfect five-star rating. 

"All I can say is WOW! This little speaker is packed with power for its size! Paired instantly with my iPhone 11. The setup was very easy. I had it up and going right out of the box; it came with a full charge as well. It also charges pretty quickly, usually only about 2 hours," cheered one user. "The sound quality is extraordinary, with some good bass to it as well. Truly waterproof! Left it outside accidentally and it rained! Still works like new — had it for about two months now."

"I needed a Bluetooth speaker for the garage because that's where I do my exercises ... I ordered it because of its 'cuteness.' But underneath the cuteness is a speaker that's easy to connect to and stylish, with great sound quality. Of course, after my teenage daughter heard the music coming from it, I knew it was no longer mine or for just the garage!! It's small and MIGHTY!" said this fan.

"OVERALL, I LOVE THESE SPEAKERS," reported another. One issue: "I wish that I could use these both vertically or horizontally. There is a clip on one end (for people to attach to a bike, backpack, etc., and the charging port is on the other end. These speakers are specifically designed for horizontal use, but sometimes I want to place them vertically. So I just do it anyway, but they aren't as stable."

"I use this speaker to watch movies during camping trips," wrote a rave reviewer. "We will watch movies outdoors with the fire pit going. The speaker is loud enough even if you are sitting 20 feet away with all background noise. It sounds great!!! Battery lasted through two movies without any issues. It never loses connection either. Can't ask for more from the wireless Bluetooth speaker. It charges quickly as well."
