Good Sound Quality Perfect Bass Note Loud & Clear🥳Still I Preferred Anker🫰🏻🫶🏻

Price point and battery life is the key to a good product. ipx7, portability, weight to size ratio is perfect for home- shower or travel, it has a nice app to manage add on valuable features for customization

I love the sound . The bass is soo good

It sounds so good I love it a lot.

I am a long term owner of this device,I owned this since 2021 but it still works perfectly well. Now I am an avid fan of this brand. It has a decent price but crisp audio. The battery is still great, 24 hours of continuous music. The app is intuitively programed for ease of use.

Not enough treble... Sound distortion at full volume

Best sound quality for the price..

Very good quality just like I expected

Too good. Sound is decent and enough for daily listening

Excelente opción, muy buena bocina, muy buena calidad de sonido

Produto chegou bem embalado e lacrado, sendo exatamente o esperado, Quem for comprar deve ter paciência, pois demora cerca de 1 mês para entrega, mas vale a pena, o produto é bom, tendo boa qualidade sonora e durabilidade da bateria de cerca de 12hrs com o volume quase no nível máximo.

Considering the price this is very good quality for the money and for the size it also has an impressive sound output which is more than capable of filling a large room at higher volumes. It's also quite weighty which only adds to the feel of its quality and I like the rubberised build which helps a lot when handling. I was impressed with just how easy it is to connect to bluetooth using my Google Pixel 6a phone as well as another bluetooth phone (Sony Z5) - and once the connection has been set up the unit and phone quickly connects the next time as soon as it recognizes that I have bluetooth turned on my phone. There is also an App which can be downloaded which allows for customisation of the equalizer and this is important because not everybody will want the extra bass boom (which this thing is more than capable of delivering!) that comes as 'factory' settings out of the box. In regards to the sound quality one must remember that these are small speakers in a small cabinet and therefore there is obviously some sort of trickery to make the audio output sound 'loud' and 'bassy' when required. Nevertheless, all in all, I have been happy with the audio tests that I've conducted using several different genres and, as long as one remembers that this is not 'hi-fi' equipment I can honestly say that I think most purchasers of this product will be more than happy with the sound it produces, especially as I think it is designed and marketed for a younger crowd who want 'beats' wherever it my be transported to. Also impressive is the battery life - I've had this playing at work over several days at a low to medium setting with a completely flat EQ setting (still more than bassy and loud enough in my office setting) and it has lasted for over 24 hours without needing a recharge. The App gives a more detailed battery life reading than just the white light on the unit changing to indicate when it needs a recharge. I can recommend this item wholeheartedly and would purchase again if ever I wanted a second one or replacement (but presuming that the build quality is a good indication that this is built to last at least a few years yet!).

------------------------------- START OF NEW REVIEW ----------------------------- The day my original review (below) got published (July 29, 2022), Marvin from Anker Customer Support contacted me regarding my issue. He was professional, understandable, and offered me a solution - receive a new speaker to remedy my faulty one, without the need to return the one I purchased! I took him up on this offer as I believed my original unit was faulty. On Aug 2, 2022, Marvin notified me that the new speaker was ordered, and the next day (wow) it was delivered to my door. Lo and behold it arrived at 60% (again), and after ~2 hours of high-volume playback it had only dropped 10%. I continued to use it for the rest of the day and am happy to say this device has 24h battery life as advertised. The sound quality is just as good as the first one, so it really was just a battery issue. Thank you Anker for the wonderful customer support and quick resolution to my problem. ------------------------------- END OF NEW REVIEW ------------------------------- --------------------------- START OF ORIGINAL REVIEW --------------------------- I own the original Anker Soundcore (1st gen) and wanted to upgrade to the 3rd generation while it was on sale for $70 CAD. Item arrived on time and in typical high-quality Anker packaging. Removed device from box and bag to find a few smudges around the speaker but I didn't think much of it. Connected seamlessly to my phone (the speaker was at 60% when it arrived), downloaded the Soundcore app to play with the EQ settings, and listened to music for around an hour and a half. Before I knew it the music stopped and Bluetooth disconnected, I thought something was up with my phone but I realized the speaker had turned off (it was dead!). The battery drained from 60 to 0 in ~ 90minutes of mid-volume listening. My Soundcore 1 would last significantly longer than this despite its age. Although both devices are rated for 24 hours of playback, clearly that is not the case with the product in my hands. The next day (today) I charged it to 100% and played music at a low volume in the background while I worked. Battery duration was around 5 hours. ------- TLDR ------- PROS: Speaker build and sound quality blow the original Soundcore out of the water. Having the app to customize your EQ profile is a great plus as well. Comes with USB-C charging cable and heavy-duty nylon strap to loop into the built-in holes. CONS: Unacceptable battery life, my suspicions are either from a used unit (hence the smudges/fingerprints when opening), or just a faulty battery. @Anker, please let me know what's going on! --------------------------- END OF ORIGINAL REVIEW ---------------------------
