Nothing
It lives up to the hype

This model is a bit pricier than the previous Orbit
Abstract: The portability of it suffers a bit from its height—the Orbit MP3 is too large to fit in anything other than coat pocket or bag—but it comes with a nice carrying case, and is very easy to break down and set up; unwind the cord, plug it in, turn it on, done. As far as..
Abstract: The Altec Lansing Orbit MP3 portable speaker system is compact, stylish, reasonably priced, and nicely designed. But none of that would matter if it didnt also sound good. But it does, and, in fact, it sounds really good for its size (see picture belo...
Abstract: The Orbit MP3 from Altec Lansing is one of the best sounding compact speakers you can buy for under $40. It’s much, much better than the previous Orbit design in both sound quality and ease of use. Anyone looking for an ultra-compact design that doesn...

While its inexpensive, this model is a bit pricier than the previous Orbit; overall thin sound; distorts at higher volumes.
We like the new and improved version of Altec Lansings portable single speaker, the Orbit MP3, better than the previous model--but it costs a bit more.

Honestly I’m not impressed with this product at all, being from Altec Lansing I expected a bit more really. Sure it’s lightweight, portable and has a long battery life, but all that doesn’t mean much if it doesn’t sound good, espec...
