SoundcoreAnker Motion Boom Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker with Titanium Drivers, BassUp Technology, IPX7, 24H Playtime, App, Built-in Handle, Outdoor Speaker for Camping, Pool, Beach, Backyard

I’ve had a long process trying to get this speaker but it was well worth the wait. I’ve had it in the past. I know it’s a killer speaker. I ordered it with one day delivery, and got it the next morning. I got the wrong model speaker first time around, and promptly they shipped a replacement. Next morning I get it, and it’s a used product instead of a new one. Now I wait for a refund and eventually this third time around get to order my new speaker and the Amazon box was perfect, but the speaker box took a blow before final packaging and I didn’t appreciate the mishandling that’s occurred but at the end of the day I got my awesome soundcore motion boom. If they have any other speakers with equal AND better audio output, I’d love to know! This speaker held up for YEARS and took many blows rolling off the roof of my car when I’ve forgotten it and falling off shelf’s at work. Finally one of the speakers blew and it was time to get a new one. Soundcore and the motion boom are forever memorable speakers for the impressive audio quality and the ability to charge your phone with the usb port in the back of the speaker. Speaker had minimal distortion and was very potent in sound. The ability to link multiple together adds for a wide coverage of sound.

Blown away buy this little beast. It's LOUD and the two sub woofers/passive radiators pack a huge punch. Just make sure you turn on the bass up button. Sinking is beyond simple and connects with my phone and Switch with ease. Audio quality will blow you away for such a medium sized speaker. It reminds me of the great boom boxes of the 90s. Small but powerful. The handle makes it easy to carry around the house or outside to do some chores. And it's water proof, so you can bring it in the shower or bath if you want. I'm beyond satisfied. Only draw backs are no FM tuner or AUX which is a bummer. Even the Soundcore 2 has an aux. No aux is, quite frankly inexcusable. Not a deal breaker, but inconvenient nonetheless. I'm gonna get a Bluetooth broadcaster and small radio and see if that will remedy the problem. But all in all, an easy 10/10. It's LOUD. It's bassy. It fills a room. It's perfect for my needs. Might even buy another one in the future. 😉EDIT: Highly recommend downloading the Soundcore app and tweaking the equalizer. The defaults are fine enough, but with a little tuning, this thing blows many other much larger speakers away. Get one! Get two! Anker, if you're feeling generous, I could use an extra for large room stereo sound. 😉 😉

This tiny speaker has been such a joy to listen to music with. For context, I am by no means an audiophile, but love listening to music loudly and with a lot of bass. I listen on Spotify, YouTube, and occasionally Apple Music. Here is a detailed review from an avid music listener:Sound quality:This speaker is so crisp and clear it is unbelievable. Even at max volume it doesn’t clip or distort unless the mix on the song is off. The bass is incredible, pretty much the main reason I bought it, for that BOOM. Since the speaker uses 2 passive radiators, to really feel the bass you need to place the speaker by a wall or in the corner of two walls so the sound can bounce off them. It is actually insane how powerful the bass gets when you do that. You can feel parts of your body as well as the floor vibrating. One thing to note, there is a “bass “ button on the speaker and it definitely improves the bass, but look on to the next paragraph to make the bass even better.Out of the box, the speaker doesn’t sound as good as it could. This is because the equalizer has not been adjusted, so the sound signature is pretty flat. If you’re into that then great, but if not you can download the soundcore app and tweak the sound to your liking. In the picture I posted you can find my EQ, and boy does it make the sound louder, the bass bigger, and the songs overall more vibrant and bouncy. I listen to a lot of hip hop, so the bass and low end sounds great with that genre. But I also listen to a lot of indie and folklore, and the highs sound equally nice. Also, for EDM, this speaker is spectacular. The synths are bright and poppy, the drums are commanding and hard hitting, and the singer’s voice sounds great, not muffled or overpowered by the other aspects of the song. (And if they are, you can change the EQ) You can also power off your speaker from your phone app, which is pretty cool.Portability:The speaker is relatively easy to carry around. It has a rubberized handle and is only a couple pounds. I like to put it in my backpack when walking around or hanging out outside. It is waterproof too I believe, so you could get it wet, but I wouldn’t recommend submerging it in the pool because you never really know how waterproof it is until that happens. It is pretty tough too, but it has a hard plastic exterior so it might crack if dropped multiple times. But from my experience with it it’s super tough but easy to carry.Other aspects:The price is completely justifiable, sitting at around $100. It is by far the loudest and clearest speaker you will find in that price range, and can probably compete with $200-300 speakers as well. Battery life is amazing. I can go a whole week, hours a day, at half-volume, listening to music without charging it. And because it’s USB C I can use my Mac or iPad charger to charge it. Bluetooth connectivity is pretty much flawless; I usually connect it to my iPhone, iPad or Mac, and rarely experience a pause or interruption unless I walk very far from the speaker. (Probably 50 feet no walls, or 30 feet with some walls if I had to guess). The only issue I see with this speaker is that it lacks a 3.5mm headphone jack. This could be problematic if your device doesn’t have Bluetooth, but thankfully everything I need to connect the speaker to has Bluetooth. ALSO, forgot to mention that I also watch a lot of YouTube vids with the speaker and there is almost no latency. This means the voices sync up great with characters in the shows you watch, and everything works perfectly for other means of media besides music.Final thoughts:As I said before, I love listening to music out loud, and with a lot of bass. Not just punchy artificial bass, but bass you can feel; deep booming bass. This speaker has that. I literally bought this speaker to replace a full sound system with dual tweeters and dedicated sub because this speaker is more convenient and sounds pretty comparable to the sound system with the right EQ. Obviously it won’t be able to replace the bass from a good subwoofer, but it is more than enough for me and the clarity is actually better than the sound system I replaced. (It is an old altec Lansing system for reference). If you are looking for a more enjoyable listening experience, for basically any genre of music, OR if you are looking to enhance your TV’s sound system (assuming it has Bluetooth), then this is absolutely the speaker for you. The soundcore motion boom makes listening to music more enjoyable and ultimately I’m so glad I bought it. Do yourself a favor and pull the trigger on this one, I really have no complaints about it besides no 3.5mm aux, but it is truly a gem.
