Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Altec Lansing inMotion iM3C Portable Audio System for iPod (White)
Customer Review: InMotion... Think about it...
Summary: 2 Stars
Today I have finally found a shop that sells both, JBL OnStage 2 as well as the Altec Lansing InMotion. I actually wanted to compare the Logitec mm50 to the IM3C but the mm50 is not available here in China. Anyhow I was looking for a portable Speaker System that I could always have with me while traveling as well as use it on the Beach or wherever. So the JBL OnStage was not the product I was looking for. (It is always to be used with the power plug).
Well I told them I first wanted to listen to the InMotion in comparison to the JBL On Stage... Well there the trouble started. I wanted to buy a Portable system with Batteries. But comparing those two, there was just no way I could have bought the InMotion. The Sound was especially using higher Volume inacceptable!! No actually that is not true - had I not had the direct comparison I would have probably taken the InMotion and I might have been happy with it.
Well I bought the JBL On Stage.
1. The Batteries are a nice feature, but i guess next time on the Beach I will leave my Ipod at home...
2. Every Hotel room has a Plug in the wall...
3. The Remote of the InMotion is another decisive point: Yes it can be used, but the problem about it is that it has the same reach as my arm has. No more than 1 Meter is possible, seriously. I even let them give me a new set of batteries for the Remote, still no change. Maybe my aim is just 2 bad and I just could not manage to point directly at the Infra Red spot...
I think if a product offers a remote control this control should be able to control a device without actually e.g. having to get up out of bed.
Well I tell you one thought that went through my mind: What would annoy me more. To get up and turn something off or to try to turn it off while being half asleep until I realize it simply does not work and then get up to turn it off...
One last sentence: I Hope it does not seem like the InMotion is crap, it is definately not, but it just falls short if you compare it to the JBL OnStage which is not really more expensive if I am informed correctly.
Trust me JBL is the better buy - No I do not work for JBL!
