Third-party reviews

What customers like about LG Music Flow P7

  • Sleek and premium design with strong build quality
  • Reliable battery life that accurately meets the manufacturer's claims
  • Multi-Point pairing supporting simultaneous connection to up to three devices
  • TV Sound Sync feature for easy pairing with compatible LG smart TVs
  • Crisp high frequencies and detailed reproduction of vocal-centric acoustic music
  • Convenient charging via standard micro-USB
  • Excellent value for money compared to pricier rivals like the Bose SoundLink Mini

What customers don't like about LG Music Flow P7

  • Average overall sound quality that can feel slightly flat or lackluster
  • Weak low-end bass that lacks deep thumping power for busy party tracks
  • Muddy mid-range when processing complex rock or electronic music
  • Occasional competition between vocals and instruments in dense tracks
  • Average Bluetooth connection range and occasional stability issues
  • Companion Music Flow mobile app can feel unrefined or unstable

Verdict

The LG Music Flow P7 (NP7550) is a 2.0-channel portable Bluetooth speaker featuring a 20W power output, dual passive radiators, and a 2600 mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery that provides up to 9 hours of playback. Main pros include a solid, premium build with a rubberized base, Multipoint connectivity to pair up to 3 smart devices simultaneously, and advanced software features like Dual Play for wireless stereo pairing and TV Sound Sync with compatible LG televisions. However, the speaker lacks a dedicated battery level indicator, does not feature a built-in microphone for hands-free speakerphone calls, and is relatively heavy at 1.49 pounds, which slightly impairs its overall portability.
