soundcore Boost

Honestly, I didn’t expect much when I bought this speaker — I thought it would be just another small, budget Bluetooth speaker. I was wrong. For its size, the sound is surprisingly powerful and full-bodied. The bass is deep and punchy without being muddy or overwhelming, and the mids are clean and clear, making vocals easy to hear. High frequencies are smooth and not harsh. It sounds much bigger than it looks. Build quality is also very impressive. The speaker feels solid and well-made, with quality materials and responsive buttons. It definitely doesn’t feel cheap. I mainly use it with my TV, and the difference compared to the built-in TV speakers is huge. Dialogue is much clearer, the sound feels more immersive, and once you get used to it, it’s hard to go back to TV speakers. Overall, this is an excellent value for money. Great sound, solid build, and very versatile — perfect for music, movies, and everyday use at home. Highly recommended if you want big sound from a compact speaker without paying premium brand prices.

First off, this looks and feels like a quality little device. Nice rubbery texture on the top and bottom (though I hope it doesn't go all sticky and nasty after a few years...) and fabric across the front and back. Nice sold rubber cover over the power connectors too. Bluetooth 5 connectivity seems to work fine, pairing was easy. Sound quality is pretty good considering the size. If you're playing stuff with lots of low frequency rhythmic components, e.g. drum & bass, you'll find the speaker gives up for the lower stuff, but for most pop and definitely voice and classical music I've put through it this device does an amazing job. I like the size and shape, it's easier to fit into places (including bags if you're moving around) than a rounded design. I was also interested (thought have yet to try) the hands free speakerphone capability of this device. Likewise, being able to use it as a power bank is good idea - there's no point in it having good battery life if the phone you're playing the music from dies! I've used the Soundcore app to adjust the audio equaliser and that works pretty well. It will let you boost the bass to a point where the audio starts to distort, but that's fair enough and that point will be different depending on the type of music and volume level. Overall, nice little unit.

I love this Anker Upgraded Soundcore Boost Bluetooth speaker. Let me tell you why. It has a good battery life when charged up. It has good bluetooth connectivity to the devices it was connected to. The sound quality is a lot better than you would expect from something so small. There is 20W of sound pumped out with a punchy base level. It is easy to use and easy to set up. Being portable is a plus as is its durablity as it is well made and seems solid. It's also waterproof and can be used to charge your phone! You will not be disappointed with this purchase.

This is my 11th Anker product & as such I had high expectations. I specifically wanted a Bluetooth speaker as my tv is against a connecting wall with my housemate & I wanted to be able to listen to the sound over the opposite side of the room so it doesn’t disturb her. My tv is not Bluetooth enabled but I have a Jetech Bluetooth transmitter which works well with my wireless headphones. The main reason I have scored this product low on Bluetooth connectivity is because everytime I try to connect it (almost without fail) it takes 4+ attempts for it to connect, this is when the devices are next to each other. The speaker claims to be connected successfully each time but no sound comes out - this happens numerous times so I have to unpair & re-pair until it finally manages to connect successfully & actually plays the sound. Also it occasionally disconnects randomly whilst I’m watching something. Given that my main use for this is as a Bluetooth enabled speaker this is infuriating & not what I’d expect from Anker. The reason I went for this particular Anker speaker over cheaper Anker ones is the boost up function, however looking at the instruction book this appears only to work if the distance is under one metre which I don’t recall being mentioned in the speaker specifics & is disappointing as I am using it at a distance of approximately 5m & notice absolutely no difference when boost up is switched on or off. That said if your primary interests in purchasing a speaker is sound quality & aesthetics & Bluetooth connectivity is not a factor then I would recommend this speaker as the sound is genuinely impressive for such a small device, battery life seems good also. Edit Anker contacted me in response to my original review & sent me a replacement. Although it connected slightly better I was still having problems to the extent that I ended up having to purchase a new Bluetooth transmitter. I am now using the avantree priva III transmitter which works seamlessly. The boost function still makes no difference a few meters from the Bluetooth source hence marking down a star. The sound quality however is excellent. The charge lasts about a day if used continuously. Takes a few hours to charge back to full but will charge whilst in use. The ability to use it to charge your phone is great as I sometimes forget to charge my power-bank The power on and off sound is unobtrusive and it’s very straightforward to connect to Bluetooth just hold down the on button to set in to pairing mode The plastic flap covering the charging ports is a snug fit so takes a bit of effort to pull out but it keeps them dust free I suppose which is probably a good feature One thing I have noticed is that shortly after I purchased this for £39.99 the price increased to £49.99. A couple of weeks after this Anker then put this on ‘sale’ for £39.99 which I felt was a bit misleading.

Great value very good portable speaker. Well made and excellent quality. Very nice sound for the size.

Lovely portable speaker so much better than my old anker . Battery seems to last forever and has a lot of base. Not the smallest or lightest mainly because of the speakers quality very portable and a big improvement

Super Lautsprecher, der einwandfreien Sound hat. Der Lautsprecher begleitet uns jeden Tag und hat dabei auch eine super Akkuleistung. Die Bluetoothverbindung ist stabil und zuverlässig. Würde ich jederzeit wieder kaufen, da der Preis auch super angemessen ist. Klare Empfehlung!

Deze bluetooth speaker van Anker is zeer krachtig. Ondanks zijn vermogen van maar 20 watt klinkt hij beter dan mijn andere bluetooth speaker van 60 watt. Druk op de extra bass ondersteuning en het feest kan beginnen. Het is een kleine speaker maar met een groots geluid. Zeker een aanrader!

Relación calidad precio muy aceptable no es la mejor bocina que he tenido pero le pongo 5 estrellas por qué es la que uso en mis tareas diarias y no me ha fallado y el Audio es muy bueno considerando el precio

Franchement, rapport qualité prix 10/10 Produit super beau et le son au TOP Je recommande !

Exactly what I expected. Very good sound. Delivery was super fast! Just over a day. (From Amazon.se)
