Soundcore Motion Boom review inc sound test vs JBL Xtreme 3, Soundcore Motion+, W-King D8, Minirig 3

[@jonathanfegelein9361]

We had a 1st gen Echo in our master bathroom for listening to music in the morning kzbin.infoUgkxABghAEkaIDGZfHRBH3D3rBrlraNmnC71 and while in the shower. I didn't realize how tinny and awful the sound output on the original Echo was until we replaced it with the Studio. It was a sonic upgrade far beyond what I was expecting. Just wow. I love it because it's like having speakers IN the shower. My friend likes it because the music is so loud that she can no longer hear me singing. So that's a win-win.

[@TheTechnologyMan]

Great!

Thank you for your review. I'll stick for my twin all-black D8's that I bought for $65 each on Amazon here in the States for now. So far nothing has amazed me so much to spur me into upgrading at my $130 price point for a stereo pair.

This speaker comes in 2nd to the updated W-King D9. W-King has longer battery life (40 hrs!) and it has an aux port, a micro sd card slot and it's NFC abled. I had mine at the park. People were impressed with the sound.

[@Yt_ShadowBannedme]

Which speaker comes in 2nd to the updated W-King??? And which speaker did you take to the park. Sorry for so many questions, contemplating buying this motion boom or not.

[@Владимир-т6м8с]

I chose and ordered a motion boom, it is almost 3 times cheaper than the extreme 3, and the sound is not much worse. I don't really like the look, but the sound is soft and spacious, the boom is lighter, a comfortable handle for carrying. grab this music playback from a flash drive. And if there was still color music, then this column would be out of competition. I will wait for delivery to Russia for a month and a half, but it's worth it.

Excellent review, thank you. I found you whilst looking for portable bluetooth speaker reviews. I'm a musician and have an outdoor gig this w/e with a singer so need remote amplification (me on accordion, they singing on the back of a custom Chevy truck for a Day of the Dead Festival...!) . Many options the challenge. I finally settled on the W-King 50W as it has a cloth strap so less bulky and on a great deal at Amazon atm if you get the green version. I also bought an Ankuka Karaoke Mic which bluetooth to pair it with the W-King. We shall see....Bluetooth mics seem to be growing in popularity. Most out there look cheap and garish (the Ankuka no exception but at least I got in black as opposed to gold, pink etc). There's not many good reviews out there of these mics (hint hint). For musicians and singers in particular, being able to perform remotely unreliant on mains power a game-changer. Must-haves would need to include multiple bluetooth pairing or similar facility (so one can play music from phone etc AND sing/play along with bluetooth mic). Instruments with 1/4 inch jack outputs (most) can use a 1/4 inch to 3.5mm adapter. Apologies for rambling comment, possibly just thinking aloud on my part but perhaps of interest. (btw, your channel shows a geotag of Dartmoor National Park, One of my favourite places with friends in S Zeal, Oakie and Throwleigh!)

Thanks and good luck with your gig!

[@davidedvd4265]

Hello i ve a question. i ve different soundcore bluetooth speakers but onyl with the MOTION BOOM i ve suffered this problem: at the first steps of the volume (the volume is sync with my galaxy samsung phone) the quality is soo bad, sound muffled, no dynamic and something similar to “zero treble”. With up step of volume the speaker starts to play well and the sound quality is very good. With others speakers as BOOST UPGRADED, SOUNDCORE 2 the quality is good at already the first steps of the volume. I ve two motion boom tested and the problem is present in both. Do you experience something similar? Thanks you at all.

[@TheTechnologyMan]

Sorry no I've not noticed that I'd speak to Anker support.

Which one should I buy? / Which one is better? I will use it only in my room. For videos and classical music and other kind of music. Anker Soundcore 2 v Tronsmart T2+ v JBL Go 3? Or other if you say.

I just bought the Sony XB43 instead of the JBL Extreme 3. What a mistake. I'm so disappointed with the Sony XB43. For a big speaker, it doesn't have a very warm, bottom base. I have the JBL Extreme (original) and it sounds better than my new Sony XB43. I'm now looking at the Soundcore Motion Boom. And my new Sony was around $200. Feels bad.

[@TheTechnologyMan]

Not tried the Sony yet - the JBL is expensive and big but does sound pretty good.

Thank you for the video. Do you know if I can use a microphone with it or if the cellphone can be used as a mic(maybe via an app or the phone's mic itself). I'd appreciate the feedback/reply!

[@TheTechnologyMan]

No probs. There's a mic - but no mic input. You can still use your phone's mic - and any output will come via the speaker - although it really depends what you're trying to do.

[@prodigededelmas]

Ah ok. Thank you for the reply and info. You think it works for karaoke or small gatherings?

[@gheorghecatalinapolzan8711]

The soundcore boom has that deep low end which you can't find in most of the other speakers and also lots of clarity Motion boom is the best buy in my opinion If you put the motion boom in a corner it wil just blow your mind The sound and bass that comes out from this speaker it's similar to the large speakers You can even compare it to a powerful subwoofer for the low deep end that it produces The bass you can feel and hear Amazing speaker It has no competition so far

[@afistfulofpimples1745]

I hate the sound but I'm buying it for the great handle.

[@fbelard]

Going for a dip in the sea with the motion boom like a weird techie Mitch Buchannon was totally worth the 80€ as far as I'm concerned. Plus the speaker survived and kept playing all day. It is *not* sandproof, but if you're careful and give it a good shower afterwards it's good as new. (Also, I tried pushing all the eq bands to their maximum expecting it to distort but... it just got louder. I would hesitate to leave it like that for more than a couple of songs, but damn.)

[@SangalDigital]

would it be safe if i charge this speaker with my 120w xioami charger?

[@TheTechnologyMan]

Yes that's fine - the speaker will only take what it needs.

[@sasdmdllal748]

هل معقول كل هذا الصوت ويكون ٣٠ واط غير معقول

[@TheTechnologyMan]

Not sure I fully understand your question (translated to English). But it has some decent volume - if you want more check out the Motion Boom Plus.

[@Stratman5150]

Thanks for the great detailed review. When I saw the Motion Boom was on sale for $69 this helped me decide to make the purchase. I simply love the speaker. Unreal value for this IMO. This was a replacement for an Bose speaker that I've had for many years. The key is to download the app and create a good EQ to really bring the speaker to life. Thanks again.

[@TheTechnologyMan]

Glad it helped - enjoy the speaker!

[@manuelmikewa388]

At the end of your video, all the alternatives you mentioned are either equal to, or higher in price compared to the boom. What if you want a cheaper option? I've been using the soundcore 2 for the last couple of years and it's been great but I want a better speaker in all respects; better, fuller sound with more bass but I'd prefer to remain under the $100 mark. Any great options you could share?

[@TheTechnologyMan]

I also reviewed the W-KING - which was pretty good. But the batteries in both units I had failed so hard to recommend if you need something that's going to last!

[@gawiandennis9512]

[@Masterpiece7Crystals]

Hey great video! I just bought the JBL Charge 4, I already have a Flip 5, and a Bose Soundlink Mini II which is pretty good but only for indoor use. I bought the Charge 4 bc with the Flip 5 i felt like i needed more volume. So do you think this one is better than the Charge 4? Edit im looking for bluetooth speakers for partys and to go with it to the beach etc.

[@TheTechnologyMan]

Thank you Masterpiece 7 Crystals! Personally if you've already got the Charge 4 I'd stick with that. But if you need another budget speaker to take to the beach etc - this is a decent option.

[@Masterpiece7Crystals]

@@TheTechnologyMan thank u! Also, which one is the best for you? The Motion Boom or Motion +. Just saw they are at 80€ in Amazon

[@TheTechnologyMan]

I choose the Motion+ between those two most of the time - I prefer the build quality and form factor.

[@jatigre1]

I would've bought this in a heart beat if it wasn't for the lack of 3.5 mm jack. What were they thinking? Why?

[@TheTechnologyMan]

Yes strange omission I know lots of people rely on the 3.5mm jack.

[@HeSavesMankind]

you didn't mention whether it has a microphone. I have heard it does and I have heard it does not. also, if it is connected to your cell phone and you are using it in a call, if there is no microphone on the speaker, does microphone default to your phone's microphone, or does it allow you to not use a microphone during a call whatsoever?

[@TheTechnologyMan]

I have a mic test in the video ...

[@jonijijavadze868]

2 motion boom paired will be enough 10-20 people party? Or 30 square meter room, will it be loud and feel the bass?

[@TheTechnologyMan]

That's a pretty big space - think it'd be ok but very hard to say!

[@simonsaysrewind]

Would be nice to get speakers back to the quality made one in the 80s like nice switches or chrome buttons. .. these days its all plastic which i think is a shame.

Need better sound recording 🎶 missing Bass 🤔 thanx

[@TheTechnologyMan]

Thanks for the feedback. I think my current setup gives a pretty good representation of how these speakers sound, and at least lets you hear how they compare. But I listen to hours and hours of various music tracks and so hopefully have a good feeling for how the speakers sound and can convey that in the review verbally. But I will always look to continuously improve the recordings.

is this better then motion plus ? which i own a motion plus , but it went dead on me , was using a samsung charger to charge it overnight , wonder its the cause of it going dead

[@TheTechnologyMan]

I personally still prefer the Motion Plus as an all round portable speaker. More compact, feels like it's better made and more rugged. But the Motion Boom is good if you like a bit more bass.

[@smiledrg]

what kind of speaker is more suitable for the street performance ( combine violin) ? Thanks

I have Motion Plus and Rave Neo, and I like both. It's hard to call one of them "better" than the other. They are for different purposes. Rave Neo is much larger, more powerful, has better bass, and cool LED light show. So for party situations, Rave Neo is better. Motion Plus has very detailed, accurate sound, decent bass, and is compact. So Motion Plus is better for close listening and portability. Both are great, but I find myself listening to my Rave Neo more often. It's more fun!

I agree, T9 is the best W King speaker. D9 comes in a very close second and has the advantage of being much more portable.

Thanks. The JBL blows the Soundcore outta the water.

The JBL is nice but the Soundcore is a lot cheaper!

Hi Gidon, Which one would you prefer the Motion Boom, the Motion +, wking D8 or D9? THanks

[@TheTechnologyMan]

I've replied on two other videos! But the Motion+ is generally the speaker I pick up out of those for general use.

@@TheTechnologyMan what about D8 or D9? which is better?

[@MrTubale]

@@davidbugatti2159 D8 sounds better…😉

@@davidbugatti2159 I have two D8s and two D9s, and I prefer D9. I think D9 has better high frequencies while still excelling in bass.
