I purchased this for my husband who is a guitar player, as a surprise holiday gift. I usually just buy him items from a wish list, but I wanted him to have a surprise for Christmas. He really enjoys using this fun tiny amp! He says that it is portable, easy to set up and has good quality sound, especially for the price!

Pretty good
This was the first amp I bought. It surprisingly loud for the size. I do like the way the overdrive sounds and I would also say I like the clean sound. I can't say if it's the best or the worst since I am no expert but I say it is pretty good
The video I put is how the overdrive sounds while My guitar was still kind of in tune

Holy Cow!!
I got this because it's cute, pink, small, inexpensive, and I needed something to kick around the house [finally, I can leave my main rig set up in the studio]. I would have been happy if it was "just ok", but it's surprisingly fantastic! I'm honestly impressed with how good it sounds for the tiny size. It doesn't have the massive low end of larger speakers, but it has enough bass that it still sounds good.
The built in overdrive sounds fine but your fav OD pedal might serve you better. Luckily this thing loves pedals! You'll want an EQ pedal if you prefer a mid-scooped tone, otherwise the tone knob works just fine. The battery seems good as far as I can tell. It has a nice little charging light that turns off when the battery is full. 10/10, would recommend to anyone who needs an affordable amp that likes pedals and doesn't need to compete with the volume of an acoustic drum kit.

Small but loud!
Please excuse my lack in able to play much, I'm a legit beginner but this thing is well worth the money for the value if you're just starting out like me. It can get pretty loud for being such a tiny amp, plus it can double as a wireless Bluetooth speaker as well as an aux port in case you want to practice without disturbing anyone. The compact design makes it so you can simply throw it in a backpack easily and take it on the go.
this is also perfect for any parents that have a kiddo that wants to learn bass or electric guitar and not break the bank on finding an amplifier to get them started.
Can't recommend it enough!

Great little box for practice!
Warning: I’m a poor performer lol. Video just there as an example for your assessment.
I love this thing so much. I use it with a Joyo wireless kit often. While I do wish it had effects, the distortion mode with gain control plus my instruments various pickups, tone, and gain, for practicing purposes it’s incredible. Not strong enough for any busking duties but also never claims to. I’d have several but it’s so light and portable I have zero need to.
Now, a critical review. It doesn’t “sound good” - it’s two alarm clock speakers in an alarm clock body. This isn’t a recording or modeling device. It’s basic, even primitive. I have no idea the battery life, I’ve never had it run out. I’ve also never used the Bluetooth functionality. Let’s be real, it won’t be particularly good at that. This is an electric guitar amplifier with modest gain/overdrive ability. Pushed to “distortion” causes just that, distortion. For the price, I’m so glad I didn’t buy one of the advertised products with too many features for me when all I’m doing is hammering strings to practice rhythms. When I want to actually cook, I’ve got a Katana 112 and a Marshall DCM for that.

A brilliant inexpensive option for practicing guitar or using just as bluetooth speaker
This mini Practice Guitar Combo Amp will surprise you with really good sound and plenty of volume. It also has Bluetooth and an aux input so you can practice with other music, or play along with an instructional video, etc. It also works brilliantly as just a Bluetooth speaker as we found out when our bedroom TV quit working and we used a laptop with this mini amp as a Bluetooth speaker. I have tried another brand's similar mini amp and the sound and volume levels are not even comparable. Rechargeable or plug-in so no batteries to worry about. Also sounds great when using the built in headphone jack for "quiet" practice. Bonus, the color matches one of my guitars.

Works With Harp Instrument
This is pink mini AMP works good for a Harpist at the beginner level. You have to purchase a music cord/instrument cable to fully utilize this as an amplifier equipment. This amplifier works good for what I need.
The Bluetooth connectivity connects immediately to another device. This feature helps the equipment operate as a radio. But, this is not my purpose for buying it. It is nice that this equipment has multi-purpose. When I no longer need this mini AMP. I can upgrade to an amplifier with more power and voltage. Then, I can keep this mini AMP, to use as a radio.

Compact Bluetooth speaker/mini guitar amp
This is really handy to have if you are a guitar player. It's a great little practice amp that can also be used as a Bluetooth speaker. It even has a clean/overdrive button. Now, is this a fantastic sounding amp that audiophiles and sound engineers will rave about? No. It's a very reasonably priced compact solution for people that want to practice but don't want to lug around a full sized amp. Again, it has the Bluetooth capability, it also has a 3.5mm audio in jack and has a second 3.5mm headphone jack. The best thing about this in my opinion is that it's all battery operated and can be charged via a USB C port. I really wish I had one of these 20 years ago. If I wanted to bring my guitar with me traveling, I either had to bring the acoustic, which I didn't enjoy playing as much, or I had to bring my electric but play it without an amp

Perfect for practice
On the quiet side, but that’s not a bad thing. Sound quality good enough for the price. Very lightweight and portable. Perfect for on the go or a small room. Made of plastic.

Good sound for a small unit
I was surprised by the sound quality for this little amp. It’s easy to use, and hooks up via Bluetooth to your phone. This way you can play music and play the bass or guitar at the same time. Two volume buttons work independently, so you could turn up the volume on the bass only, and not the music. This is chargeable so you can take it anywhere. This is good for a beginner musician, or even as a secondary amp for practicing at home.

Two channels with volume control is great
I make noise out and about. I used to have the Katana Mini but sold it to a friend when I upgraded to the Cube Street 2. Both of those anmps are great, but one I no longer have, and the other is too large for some casual lightweight noise on the go. I’ve been using an ancient Logitech bluetooth speaker, plugging into the 1/8 inch auxiliary jack, but it’s more than a decade old and the battery is barely hanging on. This Joyo mini amp is just about everything I could’ve hoped for and at $24 the price is right. With two separate volume control channels I can plug in more than one noisemaking toy and mix them appropriately. Only one of the channels has additional tone/gain/drive controls but I don’t use those much. From my limited testing I am not in love with what those extra controls do anyhow. But then again my use case is almost certainly different than most. I haven’t tested the Bluetooth on it but I assume it works fine. Made a quick video. Super high production value

Quality sound in a cute package
Absolutely love this little practice amp. It has a retro vintage look great value for the price and actually puts out quite a bit of sound plug this into my electric guitar to play in my office wasn’t overwhelming, but it definitely put out enough for me to jam out the retro of it, super cute. I have it set up on a bookshelf as a display because it’s so adorable but it’s also very practical I can take along anywhere. It’s portable and lightweight.

Cute yet powerful little portable amp!
I tried to capture how small it was with the photos and how it sounds with the video!
It definitely gets loud but the poor speakers can only handle so much before it starts to rattle the frame but hey that jusreans they have power! The sound is very dry and basic but it is crisp and the little speaker takes pedals well too!
It is portable with a USB-C rechargeable battery that lasted for my whole jam session so I can't ask for much more!

Very fun amp for portable usage and just around the house
This little blue JOYO is an amazing little device. It was so much fun to tinker with and get some great jangly clean and growling overdrive sounds with. It puts out some serious sound too. I could take it to my couch and put on a mini-concert for the family. I also have an Orange branded mini amp as well, but this thing is even smaller than that (see photo). If there was just one con to this amp is it looks like it was made by Fisher Price for toddlers. That's all I got. It's looks like a child's toy and when people see it, they are surprised what it can actually do. Hardly a con, but its up to you to decide! Its great and a load of fun!

Nice little battery powered amp!!
I love this thing! It's so light and portable. Super cute! No need to put in a 9v or AA batteries. Just plug in a USB charging cord. It fits in my purse and weight next to nothing.
Love the Bluetooth function. I can jam with backing track easily or try to play along with a song.
Great clean and distortion tone. Good battery life. Get one and bring it everywhere!
