Anker Upgraded Soundcore Boost Bluetooth Speaker, Balanced Sound, BassUp, 12H Play, USB-C, IPX7 Waterproof, Custom EQ via APP, Wireless Stereo Pairing

Genuinely one of the most impressive small speakers I’ve ever had, bought this in 2021, so I’ve had it for a number of years and I still use it every day. Not only does the battery never seem to run out, the sound quality is very impressive, I own a few other small speakers and nothing is as good sounding as this. Even some larger speakers I’ve had, haven’t compared to the sound quality of the anker one. The bass boosted sound makes a lovely difference aswell. I use this speaker in the shower and it gets soaked and never had an issue, it can handle a lot of water. I haven’t been told to write a review or anything, I just think it’s such great value for what it offers.

Fantastic sound quality easy pairing well worth the money very satisfied.

I bought this product after a friend of mines let me borrow his Soundcore (the model below this one, without the bass option), and was quite pleased with how loud it was and how clear the audio was. So I had a look for something similar, but better, as the build quality of the soundcore wasn't to my standard. Behold: Soundcore Boost. It's a little pricier than the soundcore, but it's so worth the extra bit of cash. In return you will recieve extremely clear audio (imagine what holy water would sound like), pretty good build quality, AND an extra button that allows you turn on and off bass. You can also connect to an app to adjust presets with an equalizer. I bought this at £40 on sale, but after using it, I can say I'd pay the original £60 they were asking for. Very pleased with this speaker and I highly recommend it. Budget-friendly and excellent quality.

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.EditAnker 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 featureOne 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.

An amazing little speaker! Small and mighty with perfect sound! I bought it to use in the garden and when we go away. The sound is just as good as Bose and for the price it won’t break the bank! It’s light and portable, made well and waterproof!

Great little speaker, sounds great and battery seems to last for such a long time.
