It’s a Party Everytime with the Belkin Thunderstorm Speaker

Great sound reigns supreme with the Belkin Thunderstorm, which I recently received.

So often, I find myself with only my iPad for music. For instance, at home. In order to hear my music in rooms other than just the one I’m in, and other than just when I’m right in front of my iPad, I need the Belkin Thunderstorm. Moving my iPad from room to room, in order to listen to music or watch movies and TV shows, I don’t want to have to balance carrying a portable speaker that’s plugged in, as well. I’m sure you can imagine how inconvenient that would be! As someone who is a little bit clumsy, I was always sure to drop one or the other—which is why my iPad is always covered or in a case. A case plus a speaker system in one? Amazing!

“The first and only truly portable, full-range stereo iPad speaker system.”

This speaker system really allows music and sounds from movies and games to be projected throughout the room. This room-filling sound comes courtesy of the Audi-fi sound processor. To take sound to the next level, I recommend downloading the free app for your iPad. The Thunderstorm app allows you to select Movie, Game or Music and get just the right level of sound that works best for each. I haven’t checked out the sound for playing games on my iPad, yet—but music, and movies? Yes—tested daily.

The cover can be triangle-folded, as shown above. This allows you to have the iPad in movie-watching mode. 

Here’s the iPad with the cover down—all cozy and protected.

 You can get one of these Belkin Thunderstorm cases for your 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation iPads. The case/speaker system is heavy-duty, so I know my iPad is protected, yet isn’t too heavy to carry around with me.

One of my favourite, and sort of surprising features, is the fact that my iPad is charged at the same time as the Thunderstorm charges. Brilliant.

I received the Belkin Thunderstorm for my iPad to be able to enhance his sound. I like getting him gifts like this—keeps him happy.
