No, it’s just a 5V, 2.1A charging port.

can you play music from a usb drive or is the usb port only to charge a phone?

Thanks for your feedback. We really enjoy taking our own detailed photos and reviewing the tools. Sometimes, however, we may forget that some people want a simpler look at the entire product.

Ok here is another item where there is not a photo of what the item looks like from a straight one picture. Just like the bits, I’m showing that there is more then one time this happens.

There’s actually no Aux cable or input for the XRM11. We genuinely like the sound of both systems, but if you had just one, the Packout would deliver more output and overall sound quality in our opinion (it also has a radio). The Makita’s advantage is its size and the fact that you can network multiple speakers.

Of course, the Packout radio also costs over 2X as much.

Firstly thanks for the review!! Secondly how would you compare this radios sound 2 of these to the Milwaukee packout radio as far as quality of sound and volume? Btw I did just read your review of the pack out radio also (and thank you for that review also)!!
Tia for your further input. Also am I correct in saying you can physically connect my phone to this speaker to play also?
