That is interesting, my friend.
New speakers - Soundcore Boost and Select and Pro
Strangeā¦ no new logo on these new speakers.
Boost is now on Anker site and Amazon, though unavailable.
Boost and 2 are now in stock on Amazon. Pro isnāt though.
I came across the speakers today in my local Walmart. Itās not a big one, so I was surprised to see them. The Pro is still $100. Boost was $80 (out of stock). And Select (not 2) was even cheaper.
Wow! I was comparing the SoundCore Proās specs to some of JBLās wireless BT speakers and Iām pretty impressed! I only compared wattage, but am in the process of doing a more detailed comparison. These have been my results from the more simple analyzation.
SoundCore Pro quite a bit better than the $100 JBL Flip 4.
SouneCore Pro a little bit better than the $150 Charge 3.
SoundCore Pro not too far off from $180 Playlist.
Thatās pretty impressive for a $90 speaker from a brand thatās not known for its speakers. Of course thatās just based on specs and audio quality only, not any other features.
Stay tuned for my more detailed comparison.
Is the Sport XL better than the Charge 2?
If you do decide to pick up the Select, Iād be curious to hear how it sounds vs the Flip.
Do you have the Premium?
Well, well, well. It looks like Walmart my have contacted Anker and requested they list the SoundCore Pro for the full $99 price on Amazon. Check it there now.

In the comments section of the few videos out there on YouTube covering these products, it sounds like these new speakers arenāt impressing people as much as Anker may have hoped.
Yeah Im still happy with my Sport XL than this Pro.

Really?! Why?
The sound quality just doesnāt even seem to come close to the Sport XL. The Sport XL sounds so much more crisp and clean and the bass has better high and lows, it may just be my ears but there is a noticeable difference to me The style in my opinion is not all that great either. Sport XL is a great overall value.
So you had the Pro and compared it yourself?
Yes I HAVE the pro and have tested it out already. Any other questions detective?
Lol sorry just find it interesting / disappointing that the one I already have it better. Thanks for the info tho!
By all means it is my own opinion. You may like it better so just get it and test it out
Nah I trust you. That said, I was planning on itā¦ Glad I didnāt order on Amazon!
Regarding the Pro, I notice the FCC model was 5200mah and the final product was 8000mah.
Good idea, once we saw the price, good to squeeze in a bigger battery.
But the IP rating dropped. Wonder if it failed the spray test?
Yes, I noticed that too, ref battery capacity - but didnāt spot the IP rating thoughā¦
on my soundcore 2, In some songs thereās a strange pumping effect; low notes go to high notes really suddenly and its quite distracting. Im assuming this is due to an aggressive limiter or am I the only one with this problem?
