Very good for its price-point
First, a couple of qualifiers: My five-star review is heavily influenced by how much this costs and how impressed I am with it as a stand-alone unit. This is not necessarily a five-star product compared to other products that cost hundreds of dollars more than this, or are competing in otherwise entirely separate classes or categories. This is a five-star review of a $170 (at the time of purchase) boombox. You may be cross-shopping this with other products that cost more, or are otherwise higher-end or competing in different spaces, and I'm not attempting to suggest this is as good as, better, or worse than those. If I'm comparing to anything else, I'll note that in my review. Some background: I exist almost entirely in the JBL ecosystem. I have a JBL Xtreme, and a couple of JBL Charge speakers of differing generations. I've never not been happy with my JBL products, but I just spent a long weekend at a cabin with friends and took my JBL Xtreme speaker as portable sound. Not a complaint, necessarily, about the Xtreme, but when we got home and I was moving things around, it slipped out of my hand and landed on the tile floor, breaking some of the trim. Entirely cosmetic, but I decided I needed something more purpose designed for moving around, i.e. something with a handle. My immediate instinct was to look at the JBL Boombox. But wow is it expensive. I've dabbled in Anker/Soundcloud products before, and as much as I've wanted to love them, I just haven't. Most of them have been returned, because of audio issues, connectivity issues, or just general quality of construction problems. But this kept popping up in my searches, and people seemed to be happy with it. I figured maybe they've finally hit the mark. And at $80 less than listing price, I figured it was a pretty low risk gamble. I've been pretty happy so far with it. It's solid and feels sturdy. The sound quality, especially after you give it some time to break in, feels like it punches well above its weight. With the Bass-up feature turned on, it's very bassy, but not like Beats by Dre bass. It doesn't make the sound muddy. Just punchy. Compared to the JBL Xtreme, it definitely doesn't feel as high-end of construction. But it feels well put together. Some more premium materials-- like rubberized instead of hard plastics-- would be nice, but they probably don't affect the overall experience. One thing I will note is that the JBL sounds better inside, but the Soundcore sounds better outside. The JBL needs walls for its optimal sound. The Soundcore doesn't seem to rely as heavily on them. I can't compare it to the JBL Boombox, but that's also a lot more expensive, so I don't feel like that's a fair comparison. The custom EQ settings are fine, but I think it's fine using Soundcore's "signature" EQ setting for most music. The lights are fun, but I ultimately turned them off for battery longevity. I've not tested the water resistance, and don't plan to, but I'll trust them on their rating. I can't comment on the Auracast, as of now, but the party-mode from JBL has been pretty disappointing, so if it's at least as good as that, it's fine. Overall, this is exactly what I want for exactly what I need: a portable speaker for picnics, beach, cabin, etc. It's much louder than it deserves to be. At home, I've kept the outdoor volume around 40% to not annoy the neighbors. It's not the nicest, or most impressive, or sexiest rig out there. But I can confidently say it's a solid entry in the relatively inexpensive portable boombox market.

Una Bestia da 140W: Bassi Sismici e Audio Cristallino per Feste Ovunque! 🔊🌊
Se cercate una cassa Bluetooth che non scenda a compromessi tra potenza bruta e qualità audio, la Soundcore Boom 2 Plus è, senza ombra di dubbio, la regina della categoria sotto i 200 euro. Anker ha superato se stessa con questo modello, e dopo averla testata a fondo, ecco perché merita 5 stelle piene. 🔊 Qualità Audio e Potenza (140W di pura energia) La caratteristica principale è la tecnologia BassUp™ 2.0. Quando attiva, la potenza sale da 100W a 140W di picco. I due woofer da 50W spingono frequenze basse (fino a 40Hz) che fanno tremare il pavimento, mentre i due tweeter da 20W garantiscono che voci e alti rimangano nitidi e non vengano "mangiati" dai bassi. L'audio è bilanciato, potente e riempie tranquillamente spazi aperti o stanze grandi. ⚙️ Specifiche Tecniche da Pro * Driver: Configurazione stereo 2.1 con subwoofer attivi e radiatori passivi laterali che vibrano visibilmente. * Batteria: L'autonomia dichiarata di 20 ore è reale a volumi medi. Inoltre, la ricarica rapida a 30W è una salvezza (si ricarica completamente in circa 3 ore). * Powerbank Integrato: Utilissima la funzione per caricare lo smartphone tramite la porta USB-C mentre si ascolta musica. * Bluetooth 5.3: Connessione stabilissima e raggio d'azione ampio. Supporta anche il codec di alta qualità. * PartyCast 2.0: Se avete altre casse Soundcore compatibili, potete collegarle insieme (fino a 100+) per un effetto surround assurdo. 🛡️ Costruzione e Design È costruita come un carro armato. La certificazione IPX7 non significa solo che resiste alla pioggia, ma è completamente impermeabile e, cosa fantastica, galleggia! Perfetta per feste in piscina o al mare senza l'ansia che affondi. Le luci LED RGB sui lati si sincronizzano con la musica e sono personalizzabili tramite l'app, aggiungendo un tocco scenico molto piacevole. 📱 App Soundcore Menzione d'onore per l'applicazione dedicata. L'equalizzatore grafico personalizzabile (Pro EQ) permette di scolpire il suono esattamente come piace a voi, cosa che molte casse concorrenti non permettono di fare con questa precisione. Conclusione La Soundcore Boom 2 Plus è un "must-have" per chi ama i bassi potenti e vuole una cassa indistruttibile da portare ovunque. Al prezzo a cui è proposta, batte concorrenti molto più blasonati e costosi (come JBL o Sony) in termini di rapporto potenza/prezzo. Assolutamente consigliata!

A Speaker to Surpass the Stormbox Blast
They did it. The first Motion Boom Plus was thier best overall sounding speaker with the most bass, but it couldn't quite match the Tribit Stormbox Blast. I can say now that thanks to its larger size and bigger power output, this speaker is the new favorite in town. It's got deeper, bigger bass and can get a lot louder than the Blast. Highs and mids can both be adjusted to your preference so those are pretty much the same. Slightly fuller sound thanks to bigger woofers with a higher power output. 140w vs 90w peak. It weighs less than the Blast and I think looks a little better too. Never cared for the led lights on the front of the Blast. There are about 8 different lighting options each with the ability to choose a custom color pallette and you can dim or turn them off completely. Compared to Soundcore's other offerings, it is of course the king of litter this size or below. I was a little surprised how much bigger and little heavier it is than the original Boom Plus, so might be something to consider. If you are looking for a more portable speaker the new Boom 2 is an impressive alternative. Nothing else will rumble your surroundings as much as the Boom 2 Plus though. The only speaker that does something better in my opinion would be the X600. Because of the way the speakers are angled it really does an amazing job of giving an open soundstage I haven't found in any other single bluetooth speaker. The price of $250 for this speaker does feel maybe a tad high considering I can get the Stormbox Blast for $200 or less (I got mine for $150 on sale), but it is still less than say the JBl Boombox or Sony Ult Field 7 for roughly the same performance. It also looks and feels quite a bit more premium than first Boom Plus. Overall while the price might be a tad higher than what I'm used to from Soundcore, it's bigger more premium all around speaker than the original with sound quality a bass output that beats the Blast. I highly recommend.

Amazing sound — exceeded my expectations!
I purchased the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus Portable Speaker by Anker, and I can honestly say these speakers are incredible. The sound quality absolutely blew me away. The bass hits hard without overpowering the mids and highs, and the clarity stays impressive even at high volume. Whether I’m indoors or outside, it fills the entire area with rich, powerful sound. The battery life has been excellent, setup was quick and easy, and the build quality feels solid and premium. It’s portable enough to take anywhere, but don’t let the size fool you — this thing gets LOUD. The sound remains clean and crisp even when pushed. I’ve owned and used a lot of speakers over the years, and for the price, this may be one of the best audio purchases I’ve made. Anker really knocked it out of the park with the Boom 2 Plus. If you’re on the fence, stop thinking about it and buy it — you will not be disappointed. So far, I’ve purchase 2 of the Boom 2’s and 2 of the Boom 2 Plus’s. I told my family today I wish I had 10 more of each because WHY NOT?!?!?!? The video doesn’t come close to capturing the experience, but I’m sharing it anyway!
