Speaker is phenomenal. Setup was not good via the Android phone, apparently there is a glitch. Used a computer with windows 10 and it was easy. Harmon kardon support was great but couldn't help. Microsoft help is non existent, in fact I still haven't heard back from them once after three attempts. If not for the computer setup, I would have an expensive paperweight on my hands. Product great. Help from Microsoft horrendous!!

The sound quality is pretty decent, so Harmon Kardon did well on their part, but Cortana is what prevents me from recommending this product. I have it set up in a room without AMAZING WiFi, and half of the time she disconnects. When I ask for her to skip, occasionally she’ll tell me about some ancient ship that sailed the seven seas. When it comes to music she doesn’t always choose the song I’m asking about, though that may be a problem on my part, though Alexa tends to do better with it. Overall, Cortana isn’t my top pick for a digital assistant. one thing I did notice though is that the microphones are amazing! She hears me when I’m almost at a whisper, as long as I’m within 5 feet of her and minimal backround noise, and when music is playing loudly and there is a fan in the backround, she tends to hear me very well. If you mainly want the Invoke for music, I would recommend it, if you would like it to do most other things digital assistants like Alexa and google assistant can do, I would recommend going with a different device.Read full review

Just too Cool! Love the sound quality and voice control. Make sure you have a Microsoft account and that it is open on your device that sets it up. Bluetooth also has to recognize the Invoke speaker before you get a successful setup. Don’t expect too much from the manufacturer tech. I could not get my smart phone to connect and tried getting direction from the Harman Kardon group but I guess they are too busy to help a brother out lol.. I love my Invoke but, In the beginning it was a challenge to get all the stars to align so I could enjoy the AAA Sound to fill the room. Maybe I should make a video on Invoke setup and post on YouTube?

This is an awesome speaker. Very good sound. Amazing build quality. Cortana is ok. Cortana can get few things done but my Google Home mini is just too good at tasks than Cortana. Fow a while, we thought we would just disable the mic and use this as a bluetooth speaker only. It is absolutely great hardware for sure. Cortana sometime even picks up when we haven't said "Hey, Cortana" and that is little annoying. Highly recommended as a bluetooth speaker. Cortana ahhh..not so much.

Great sound for the speaker size. I’m use to using Cortana, no real issues there. The only drawback is choppy internet connection at times. The router is only 10ft away if that. I just unplug it and then plug it back in. This helps but can’t complain too much on a discontinued product.
