" ...  Without charging it, I was able to use the external speakers for GPS directions on my way to work (1 hour), stream music from my phone through the earbuds at a low enough volume where only I could hear it throughout my shift (10 hours), GPS directions back home over the speakers (1 hour) and went to the gym and watched a full length movie while running on the treadmill (1.5 hours). ... All straight out of the box, without a charge.  ...  "
