Jongo S3, is an affordable portable wireless speaker with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and is the first product to be announced as part of the Jongo wireless family - the world's first mainstream multiroom audio range. Jongo S3 canbe used on its own or combined in groups to deliver the most affordable multiroom audio available. Thanks to built-in Wi-Fi, synchronized audio content can be played simultaneously across multiple Jongo speakers in a single ormultiroom environment.
Bluetooth is included for more informal, one-to-one streaming which is ideal for use in the garden or sharing the fun with friends. Jongo offersrich, detailed and vibrant sound despite its size and comes with four tweeters for Degree sound, and an upward-firing subwoofer for powerful bass.

You can also stream music from your device using the Bluetooth connection. The S3 lasts for about 10 hours per charge if you use it as a portable speaker. But the S3's sound quality is not going to make you ditch your Sonos — and I certainly would not recommend you choose the Pure system over the Sonos in a head-to-head battle.
The Jongo S3 has good bass response, thanks to an extra 3. There are four 2. Music by the dance-pop band Heaven sounded rich and smooth thanks to the extra subwoofer. Jimmy Eats World's version of power-pop with a hint of emo had a lush quality our outdoor party guests enjoyed.
