Monster DNA Max review: 360 degrees of fun

With a compelling combination of omnidirectional sound, wireless charging, and floating, pool-ready chassis, it's hard not to like the Monster DNA Max.

Robust, 360-degree sound Perfect for pools Good battery life Includes a wireless charger Speakerphone capability

No EQ customization No auxiliary input Annoying voice feedback

“The Monster DNA Max speaker offers party-ready sound in a pool-proof package.”

Monster DNA Max review: A portable Bluetooth speaker with wireless charging

In our Monster DNA Max review, we look at a portable Bluetooth speaker complete with wireless charging, ensuring you'll rarely be out of battery power.

Solid build, sleek design for indoors and out ; Loud, fairly balanced sound for the most part ; Easy to use ; All day battery life ; Wireless charging option ; No app required

No AUX or external source ports ; Occasionally a bit muddy depending on volume and music played ; Wireless charging base is magnetic but weak ; No EQ settings or app for finer tuning ; Bit pricey for the sound/quality due to wireless charging feature

The Monster DNA Max Wireless Speaker is a decent option in a crowded market, albeit (as mentioned above) a bit expensive for what you get. While there are similar-sounding speakers for cheaper, the wireless charging feature is definitely nice to have...

Monster DNA Fit in-ear earbuds review - The Gadgeteer

Overall, I felt that the Monster DNA Fit headphones were pretty good for a couple hours of daily use, but might make your ears a little sore if you plan several hours of wear. Sound wise, they are bass focused, with the bass sometimes drowning out the...

Good bass ; Full sound ; Stays securely around the ear

Ear got sore after a few hours ; Bass and mids almost too much for some rock songs

Monster DNA Fit Review

The Monster DNA Fit are built for workouts with an ear hook design to make sure even during the sweatiest sessions they're not going to budge

Lots of extra eartips ; Powerful sound ; Good battery life

Unbalanced sound profile ; The fit slips when sweat hits ; Big charging case

The Monster DNA Fit are sporty truly wireless earbuds that offer workout-friendly sound, but if you want the best sports earbuds with an ear hook design, we think there’s better options out there.

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Great Quality, Low Price

The packaging is really cool. Has a unique carrying bag that uses some sort of flexible metal as it's cinch, and has a ton of in ear plastic pieces.

I decided to get these after I lost my last pair of Skullcandy headphones as these seemed a few bucks cheaper. Normally, I stick with Skullcandy, but these made me change my mind, as these are far better. Love them.

None.
