Ikarao Portable Karaoke Machine for Adults, Built-in Lyrics Display and Screen, 2 Self-Charging Wireless Microphones, Karaoke App, 140W Speaker, Connects to TV for Home Party Birthday Outdoor Camping

Love it! So much fun for the whole family!

Honestly, there is no major problem with the iKarao Shell S2. I am actually very amazed by it and I think it is a great product. My only concern is the microphone. When I sing, it feels a bit difficult to use because the echo is not strong enough. I was hoping it could have a higher echo level to make the singing experience more perfect. As a singer, it is not very suitable for me because the microphone does not sound that good when singing. However, the screen and the music sound quality are excellent and definitely worth it.

This machine has everything you need for a karaoke in a small package. As we Filipinos love singing, the Ikarao Shell S2 is perfect for any family gatherings such as Christmas and Birthdays. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a portable, all in one karaoke machine.

Ürün beklentinin çok üstünde performans veriyor. Başlangıçta çok para verdiğimi düşündüm ama fazlasıyla hak ediyor. Eğer bir profesyonel değilseniz fazlasıyla iyi bir cihaz. Kullanırken ailece çok eğlendik. Hoparlör ve mikrofon kalitesi yüksek. Malzeme kalitesi de çok güzel. Kapalı alan için %50 ses bile fazlasıyla yeterli ancak açık alanda da bence rahatlıkla kullanılır. Ayrıca desibela satıcısına da teşekkür ediyorum. Birkaç ufak sorunu kendilerine ulaştığımda hızlıca hallettiler. Garanti konusunda da görüşmelerimde ürünlerinin arkasında durdukları izlenimi edindim. Bundan sonra benim için güvenilir satıcıdır kendileri.

A premium priced product but very inferior quality with 2 days display is flickering

Had to return. This is a very sleek and compact portable karaoke machine. Its very convenient to carry around, a little bit on the heavier side but this can definitely be brought and used anywhere. Sadly, the sound isn’t as great. There’s an option to adjust the sound, echo and all that - but even with all the adjustments, the sound wasn’t that great. My vocals sounded separate from the music, and the echo wasn’t that evident. Great for just singing for fun but definitely not something that I would recommend for those who are expecting more. Update: seller was kind enough to reach out and recommend a better model that suits my needs. They recommended the Break X2 which was in fact sounding a whole lot better than Shell 2. Although it doesn’t have the echo adjustmwnt, i was able to connect it with a soundmixer so no worries about that anymore. Customer Service os also amazing! They called me from China to walk me through how to properly use the X2. They sent video tutorials as well. Updated my review to 5 stars due to the fact that the X2 is great.

✅ What this machine does well Sound & portability It’s specified at 140 W peak power via dual 2.7″ full-range drivers, which promises a reasonably loud, clear sound for home/party use. Reviewers for similar models (e.g., the Shell S1) noted “the speaker is powerful for its size … the bass boost is strong, and the quality of the music does not falter at high volumes.” Many users like that this is a more compact all-in-one machine rather than having to assemble a speaker + separate mics + screen. Built-in screen & mics The “built-in lyrics display and screen” means you don’t necessarily need to hook up a separate tablet/laptop for lyrics. That simplifies setup. The inclusion of 2 wireless microphones (self-charging) is a strong convenience feature: no mic cables, and the mics charge via the built-in unit. Ability to connect to a TV (via HDMI or other means) makes it versatile for larger viewing (for lyrics) or using the TV as the display for bigger groups. User sentiment On the company’s Trustpilot page many users praise the sound and features. For example: > “This machine is spectacular … The sound and mix delivers.” Many mention that it covers a lot of karaoke machine needs “out of the box”. --- ⚠️ Areas for improvement / what to watch Screen size & readability If the built-in screen is small (specs say 8″ for some models) it might be harder to read lyrics from across a large room or at an outdoor setting. For large groups or outdoor parties you may prefer a bigger display or TV hookup. Software / app limitations One review of the Shell S1 model (a predecessor) pointed out that while the system included a built-in “YouTube” link, it was just a browser link rather than a native YouTube app, making lyric search/navigation clunky. The karaoke library/app is good, but if you’re heavily reliant on browsing large karaoke catalogs or using YouTube frequently, you might hit some quirks. Battery / outdoor use If you’re planning outdoor camping use (as your description suggests), you’ll want to verify the battery life (if this model supports battery/portability) and how well its performance holds under outdoor conditions (wind/ambient noise, outdoor acoustics). The basic model info doesn’t always highlight outdoor-specific durability (weather, very loud open-space sound, etc). Price & value trade-off All-in-one machines with built-in screen + mics + speaker + TV-connect cost more than simpler setups. If you will only use it occasionally in a small room, the premium might be less justified. One review said “for around $300-350, this is a top-notch portable karaoke machine.” But if you’ll regularly host or use it for fun, the convenience is a big plus. --- 🎯 My verdict: Is this a good buy? Yes — I believe it is a very good option, especially if your usage fits the following scenario: You want a true “plug-and-play” karaoke machine: minimal setup, built-in features, wireless mics included. You’ll use it for home use, birthday parties, maybe patio/outdoor use (but maybe not massive open-field heavy-duty). You value portability and convenience (moving from living room → patio → maybe camping). You don’t mind paying a bit more for the convenience and quality. However, if you fall into these categories, you might want to evaluate carefully: Your group size is very large (10+ people) and you’ll be outdoors in a very open space — you might need more power, bigger screen/display, separate speakers. You have a tight budget and would be fine using a simpler Bluetooth speaker + separate mics + laptop/tablet for lyrics. You expect “perfect” software/integration or are very particular about YouTube catalog usability (there may be some UI quirks). --- 📝 Summary table Feature My takeaway Sound quality & loudness Strong for its size; good for home/small party use Portability Good: built-in screen + mics + speaker; simpler setup Built-in screen & mics Big plus for convenience Setup complexity Low: likely plug & play Battery / outdoor use Works but check runtime/conditions if outdoors often Screen size & group visibility Good for small/medium groups; large groups may want TV hookup Software/app integration Good but not flawless; YouTube browsing may have limitations Price/value Higher than budget setups, but justified given features Ideal use case Home parties, living room karaoke, moderate outdoor use Less ideal for Very large gatherings, open-field outdoor, ultra-tight budget
