Anker Soundcore 2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker with Stereo Sound, Bluetooth 5, Bassup, IPX7 Waterproof, 24-Hour Playtime, Wireless Stereo Pairing, Speaker for Home, Outdoors, TravelClimatePartner certified

Very good product for the money. The sound is excellent for the size and hold a charge. The only issue I have is the Soundwave app will not recognize this device. It paired easily and works well with streamed music of all styles

Works as advertised. It’s easily portable, has great sound, easy to pair and has good volume. Highly recommended. Holds charge for a long time.

Back in 2017, I had the original anker soundcore. I loved that thing so much- it finally died last year. So I took the plunge on the soundcore 2- wow! It's like the same speaker, but modernized. Waterproof, great battery life, a USB-C charging port (instead of micro-usb), GREAT clear sound. Loud. I just love it so much. My only caveat is it takes quite a while to charge- mine seems to often be stuck at 30% for a while. Not sure if this is a battery-reading defect, or just how it is. Regardless, it works fantastically, and once fully charged, it lasts for many, many hours. Definitely my favorite small speaker, and HIGHLY recommend. Such a value!

The sound quality is good for the price. I haven't tested it at full volume; I basically use it just for myself. The battery lasts a long time; I've used it for over 24 hours, and it's still working perfectly. I bought it thinking I'd be able to hear the stereo effect, but I think that was asking too much from such a small speaker. Perhaps pairing it with another speaker could achieve that effect. Overall, I'm satisfied with the build quality and sound, except for the fact that it's not stereo; that's why I only gave it 4 stars.

I use this for my desktop and quality is great for it's small size. I love Anker products, they have not failed me so far and I've had some of their products for almost ten years! It's very easy to use and can easily transition via Bluetooth from desktop to my phone or vice versa. I'll blast music on this while I'm cooking and it's fantastic, filing the whole house with music. You can also use the speaker while charging. I've never had to time how long I can use it for without charging but I think about 6-8 hours at least. I also don't generally use it constantly at maximum volume either so it's hard to tell how long a full charge really lasts. The texture on this is like that of silicone so there's enough grip where it shouldn't slip from your fingers while moving it around, which I really like. All in all, a good, small, portable speaker for my use.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I bought this wireless Bluetooth speaker for audio output on my new mini-PC. I was not looking for great audio quality, but a decent speaker that I could use for computer gaming and YouTube videos. At $30, this was a great price point with decent sound quality for what I needed. Bluetooth connection works great, the rubberized-plastic housing is durable and water-proof, and the size is small fitting underneath my 27-inch monitor. Overall, happy with the purchase and the sound quality. I have not tested the advertised built-in microphone, so I do not know how well it might work for improved audio on cell phone calls.

Needed a small unit that had a long battery life and provided good sound. I got what was desired, and then some. Sound is better than expected for speakers of this size and cost. Not concert quality but certainly acceptable after all is considered. With using the Sirius library on my phone, I can listen to exactly what I want throughout the house and even when doing outside work, which is why I bought this unit. All squares are filled and I recommend it.

My 10yr old likes to listen to music when he showers so he's always had to just use his ipad, which isn't a great sound and high volume, sounds tinny and not loud enough when the shower water is running. So I figured I'd get him a portable sound bar he could use instead, or when he's around the house, etc.I streamed YTube and there was no lag in the vocals/sound.The sound on this is actually really good for it's size and price, it connected right up to my iphone and his ipad, he tested it out and it was easy to hear while he was in the shower, we didn't need to go anywhere near max volumn.It has a rubbery coating and feels nice and solid, large buttons on top to control connection, volume, play/pause. Comes with a USB-C charging cable (but no power brick, you'll need that on your own, we just use the many we already have).Would definitely recommend if you need an upgrade from just your device sound and want something small, portable, and good sound quality.
