With a standard 3.5mm jack it will plug in to most devices – including MP3 players and phones – quickly and easily, so there’s no need to stop the party.

It will take a good half-hour to set this up for the first time, but once connected it remembers your device and pairs almost instantly when you press the Wi-Fi button on top.
Airplay does only work with Apple products, though, so if you’re only buying it because you think wires are the work of the devil make sure you have an iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Mac.
But if you do have any other branded products don’t worry, because plugging it in really isn’t the end of the world.
It’s incredibly portable with a handy carry strap
– and with a solid eight hours’ play time there’s plenty of opportunity to get through the entire Westlife discography before it decides to pack in.
