[@thefattmatt]

Excellent review, Alan. I tell you, my jaw dropped when I saw how flat the default sound mode is on the Boom, i’ve never known soundcore to be good at tuning the default mode. That bass sounds pretty sweet on the Boom as well, looks like my type of speaker more than the Motion+ is. I’m buying two of them for sure.

[@alanrossreviews]

it measures flat but doesnt sound quite like that, really sounds a bit muddy without some eq but still fun and full and yes deep.

[@adava8510]

I love your 'no nonsense just hard data' attitude :-) Anyway, soundcore is beginning to give us products that are kinda hard to beat in terms of shear value for money - same with the latest Soundcore Life Q30 headphones, just amazed by what you get for 80 euros...

Hey Alan. New subscriber. Awesome channel. Thanks! I've been using a Charge 4 for outdoor listening on my patio at about 40% volume for two years now. I'm looking to get a different speaker for a fuller more detailed sound. Both of these Soundcore options look great. I listen mostly to Progressive music but also mix in older Rock and R&B. Based on my usage, which would you recommend more? Thanks!

[@alanrossreviews]

motion boom can do it all, its just not very detailed or sparkly and dispersion is poor. but its bass will kill the charge 4 and you can eq clarity in to it with the Soundcore app.

Awesome review as every single one I've seen you've done! Do you have any recommendations for my first bt speaker? Some clear (and hefty if possible) low end would be nice, ipx5 or better, all-around as balanced as my budget can do (50-60eur). Would mostly be used low to mid volume for fishing trips, camping, and sitting out at cottage. Currently I'm thinking about the Earfun UBOOM, Soundcore 2/boost, and JBL Flip Essential seems to be on sale for 49€ at a local store. Any thoughts? AliExpress, Amazon UK/DE, or any other European seller would be nice :)

[@alanrossreviews]

Nope 🤣

[@richardgregorowski7848]

Great review as always, thanks! Having had the Motion Plus for a few months I'm super happy with it! After this review I would still choose it... For 3 main reasons: 1: the clarity in mid and upper range is fantastic. Tweeters for the win! Especially as they angle outwards to increase the sound field. 2: the aux-in for non-BT devices. 3: the aptX BT codec. Why take them away for the Boom? Feels like 3 steps backwards for the 2 steps forwards of more pronounced bass in the Boom, and a bigger battery. It's also therefore a lot bulkier. Considering it's it's size, the Motion Plus has decent bass, especially with EDM.

[@alanrossreviews]

Its the new way, nothing wired

[@geebee3974]

I got this on a "lease" until my Sony XB43 arrives. Honestly, as a basshead, I'm pretty impressed. Ive played an hour straight of EDM, a trebly Latin Music and some Pop Music. Ive tried the Bugani M90 and the Monster Adventurer Force the past 2 weeks and it had weak bass. They were more for Rock/Country music. At 60GBP/75USD/100CAD price point this would be an excellent buy for those who love high bpm music. It's 139CAD at the moment and hmm, just wait a little bit more when it goes on sale.

Thanks a lot Alan. Concerning the lack of details on the mids, I think by decreasing the bass and changing the eq to favor the mids and highs, would make a difference. I’m really surprised by this speaker, I think it can compete well against the Xtreme 2.

[@alanrossreviews]

it starts out quite flat and didnt want to mess to much. default anker tuning tends to be a bit dull so i just look to add a little sparkle back. for sure theres headroom there for the bass but it can get a bit boomy. next stop vs xtreme 3. 👍👍

[@erlanpatrickmendoza7614]

Hello Alan. I've had the Anker Soundcore Boost for three years and I've loved it for the first two years. However, the sound quality and battery life deteriorated the last year. I've used it only indoors and rarely used it while travelling. In spite of this, I'm still planning on purchasing the Motion+ simply because the sound quality is so good based on my Anker experience. With this, may I know if you've had any issues with the Motion+ so far? And what Anker bluetooth speaker could you recommend for longevity? Thanks a lot.

[@alanrossreviews]

ive not had any issues but for sure lots of people have. its a bit hit and miss. just watch the firmware versions as they sound different.

[@thomasalexand]

Some of my portable speaker's instructions state that you must charge the speaker every two months to maintain the battery. I found out to my cost with the Cambridge Audio Go V2 that I'd left for months without using as I didn't travel and that's when I used it. From 20 hours battery life to now just under 6 hours. I haven't used it that much so it's a hard lesson.

[@kriskeilman2087]

Have you ever tried the Doss Soundbox XL? I have yet to find a bluetooth speaker that can put out the bass like the XL. New speakers do not seem to use real subwoofers.

[@thefattmatt]

Soundbox XL is a bit outdated at this point. It’s still good for the price but it’s not that loud and the bass doesn’t hold well in high volume. It was on par with competition 3 years ago, not so much anymore.

[@benjrgadgets7223]

Great review!! Did you do the Motion Boom vs. W KING D8 already? Because i am deciding which one to buy i am a Bass- Head so i always prefer the one who can produce deeper bass and decent highs.

Haven't tried them yet. There are a lot of budget boomboxes around now including w king d9, neocore wave a4.

The motion boom does actually what it says it booms. I'm not bothered about aesthetic looks, speakers are about performance. My only disappointment with the boom is no 3.5mm output.

Hi Allan, I bought a jbl extreme a few yrs ago, thought it was great, then I bought a motion plus, haven't turned the jbl on again, it's extremely impressive speaker, I am gonna try the boom on your advice..thanks for.your honest reviews Allan, I watch regularly

[@alanrossreviews]

Just keeo in mind, in terms of sound they are opposites

[@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.

25:28 So, how about pairing with a motion plus and a motion boom using a specialised app or Samsung's dual audio feature, thus getting a deep bass, full mids and vocals that pop. Isn't that the best way to go?

[@boranakin710]

Samsung dual audio is a great feature! Been pairing a motion+ with an xtreme 2 for a year now, getting quite a full sound with the xtreme 2's bass supporting the motion+.

[@jeffayson1539]

@@boranakin710 do you have tho boom? did you tried to pair them? btw hows the sync of the two different speaker i heard from someone there's kinda slight delay?

[@DoronD]

@@jeffayson1539 I recently tried to send audio from my samsung phone to an xtreme 2 and a motion plus and they synced just fine. So it should be fine with a boom too. However, you can't pair them in stereo this way. Then I tried sending audio to a motion plus and 2 xtremes and there was a noticeable delay between them and the plus. Probably because the signal has to bounce twice with 2 xtremes. Maybe a suitable app can solve this issue and the stereo issue, haven't tried one yet.

[@boranakin710]

@@jeffayson1539 Well, I have been pairing Xtreme2 and motion+ just like @DoronD, and they usually sync up just fine. A motion+ and a ue boom 2 also worked for me. It can sometimes be finicky; but reactivating and/or reconnecting them a few times solves that. HOWEVER, certain combinations of speakers won't sync up no matter what... We have tried 2 motion pluses in tws (true wireless stereo sync between 2 ankers, phone connects to one of them), paired with a single xtreme 2 through samsung dual audio with a friend and it would never sync properly due to delays. Same happens with 2 Xtreme 2's paired with a motion+ as @DoronD has said. So best to try it first before you buy two different speakers. The safest bet would be to just buy 2 identical speakers that can do native stereo with perfect syncing like a pair of motion+ or motion booms. I already had the xtreme 2 when I got the anker much later, so I do it that way. :)

[@boranakin710]

@@DoronD Wow man, great to hear that someone else has been doing the xtreme2 and motion+ combo as well! Even though it isn't stereo, they still sound great together, JBL fills in the bass, anker shines with the clarity of the highs and the mids :) We have tried the reverse of yours, where we connected a single Xtreme 2 with a pair of motion+'s in TWS through samsung dual audio, and the pair of ankers would always lag way behind the same way as your xtremes. I really do wonder how/if 2 pairs of xtreme 2's and motion+'s would work xD Cheers!

If it was possible to pair them together would have been perfect bass plus detail do a work around for us thanks

[@serenaedwards6484]

Hey, like a lot of others on here I really trust your opinion! Just been watching your old reviews on the tribits and although maxsound was clearly your favourite, you mention that the anker motion + is better in many of your comments but now watching this most recent review I'm so confused! Which is your favourite portable speaker at the moment please? Thank you!

[@alanrossreviews]

the motion plus still cant be beat for value and size. the motion boom is great for bass fans though. maxsound plus is a fav only if your budget is below those speakers.

[@serenaedwards6484]

@@alanrossreviews thank you, as lots of others have done I've also gone and got the motion plus :) thanks so much

[@thieu714]

hi Alan... i just got the motion boom from all of your reviews. I am using my own custom eq and i noticed when i hit the bass up button, its louder/more bass?? but on the app, it says bass up doesn't do anything on custom eq. I am confused?? do most people leave bass up on and adjust eq? Thanks

[@alanrossreviews]

when you git bassup it switches from custom eq to default bassup mode.

[@a.m.3118]

As far as I can hear it in your samples the Boom sounds more clear in trebble all the way from low to high volume

[@alanrossreviews]

theres a brilliance there, it has three specific peaks that help but still overall there is more going on with the m+ to my ears, i hear detail thats simply missing on the boom.

[@CPha2er]

I also heard more brilliance from the 'Boom' than from the 'Plus'. I listened with headphones. The sound on the Boom is more detailed, at least what I hear in your video.

[@SSJfraz]

The plus sounds woolly. Much prefer the boom.

@@alanrossreviews Thats too bad, u can set the + to mids and treble and the Boom to handle the bass then stack the plus on top of the boom, would sound great I bet

[@jtcber]

Can you do a comparison between the motion plus and the mega? I am deciding between these.

[@pedroortega7959]

Hi alan, I like bass in my music (I listen to rap a lot, I also like to listen to some old Frank Sinatra songs and classics). After a while, I bought a small Sony speaker, the srs-xb10, because of the "extra bass" point of sale and it nice i guess, but after about 2 years of use, I want a new speaker. After a long online search and watching your vídeos i am between the soundcore motion + and the motion boom also i will not listen to the music at maximum volume, but high enough not to decrease the bass. I also have some expirence with this company, I have soundcore life Q10 and I really like the bass up in them and the bass-up feature. What do you think? Will I like it or do you suggest another speaker?

[@alanrossreviews]

you cant go wrong with either, just decide if you prefer dispersion and clarity over deep but balanced bass.

[@pedroortega7959]

Thank you very much !!!!

[@gl4675]

Hi Alan, is this all in my imagination, or does having the anker soundcore app set to flat without bass enhancement sound different than having it set to custom mode with all of the sliders at zero? It seems to have more bass as well as other slight dynamic changes I can’t pinpoint nonetheless describe.

[@alanrossreviews]

not sure what you are asking, all sliders at zero is signature mode.

[@gl4675]

@@alanrossreviews the custom mode with all sliders at zero (from what I can hear) does not sound identical to any of the custom presets, with or without bass enhancement turned on. At first I thought all sliders at zero should sound identical to the flat preset, with bass enhancement off. You claim that all sliders at zero should sound identical to the sound-core signature preset. My ears are telling me that the custom mode with sliders at zero still sounds different than the soundcore signature preset, which I tested with bass enhancement on, as well as off. This is worth bringing up in my opinion, as the sound I prefer the most, is the custom mode with all sliders set to zero, and it does NOT sound the same as any preset.

[@alanrossreviews]

actually measuring the presets (frequency response) and custom at 0 shows them identical in my testing. i can only report what i find.

[@gl4675]

@@alanrossreviews I don’t measure frequency response, but it can’t be all in my imagination that they do not sound the same on my end, as I’ve tested on many times on different days. I’m wondering why this is. Unless I’m really THAT bonkers 🤪

Thank you so much for your video, very useful! Can you help me choose based on my musical preferences? I love blues, classical music, irish folk, African drums. Motion+ or Boom?

boom for sure, motion plus will not do justice to classical or drums of any sort.

[@meio8507]

@@alanrossreviews Thank you so much for your reply! Really? I thought that for classical music the motion plus was better suited for its greater sound detail. Do you confirm that for watching a film the boom suffers from high latency and thus some sync problems?

[@gesselsiaw3004]

Hi,geat compare,motion + more details n more loud in custom EQ,do u think so?

[@alanrossreviews]

no boom goes louder no matter how you measure loudness except for the peak thanks to the bigger mids of the m+. you could say its a draw. also i havent pished the boom eq like i did with the m+ so there is more you can get out of it in terms of loudness.

@@alanrossreviews clarity sounded ok, think it was very good for the price. And bass is always fun 🙂

[@rocketrhys2676]

I think they missed a trick here, seems is if they were so set on keeping the price down. Why not spend a bit more on R and D add tweeter ect and market it as a higher end speaker. All they appear to have done is to have released bigger less refined version of the plus. I would mind splashing out more on a high end Motion plus knowing how good my two standard ones are, as it stands i won't be investing in a bulky side step version of an already brilliant speaker.

[@alanrossreviews]

well its not much like the m+ at all really, the bass is impressive for its price, the m+ simply cant get near that low bass.

[@rocketrhys2676]

@@alanrossreviews That's exactly my point, Anker had the perfect opportunity to move the Boom to the next level. Instead it's basically a bass heavy giant muffled boom box with the Motion price tag. Anker could've made the Boom the Tronsmart T6 Max to the Motion plus's Tronsmart Mega.

[@bryanbryant9962]

"Why not spend a bit more on R and D add tweeter etc and market it as a higher end speaker." Given the runaway success of Motion Boom, I think many customers (including me) would be interested in this. I hope in a top-secret laboratory Anker is already developing it!

There appears to be differences in the models. Most people got 3 hrs but i can get 7hrs.
