Great review. I have been thinking about getting at least one of these for awhile. Just bought two, and believe it to be a very good purchase. Thank you very much!
I’m currently watching this video with this speaker and the light issue was fixed with an update I did on the app. Now if it’s off it’ll be off when I put it on again and any other light settings are remembered
Sorry for the late reply but what volume was it at in your house and outside? People say its really loud! I get mine tommorow. I never had a Ankor speaker but hear good things. Let me know!
It's the bass up button above the charging port on my speaker. It flashes when charging, goes solid when charged. I just went and looked to double check
When its charged the white led near the charging port will turn off. It gives audible warning with the power is low or look on your device or in the SoundCore app
I love this powerful speaker and the lights are beautiful. If the lights are distracting you, why don't you just switch it off? This speaker is worth every penny!
@@abriadams2928 will do...but it will be in February. Its a gift for the wife. But ill save this video. I saw reviews if you update the firmware it fixes the audio sync issues when streaming videos. I have a feeling ill buy more. The pairing capabilities up to 100 units is pretty cool
I don't have a way to quantifiably measure that and give you a number. I didn't find it bothersome. I use it with RUclips all the time. Anker has a pretty good warranty and return policy if you buy from Amazon and have a problem.
How do I dry off my Flare 2 after complete submersion? My one fell in the pool and i picked it right back up. Now if i shake it i can hear water inside it.
@@LiquidRetro ok I was thinking about trying to use type c dac for these bluetooth speakers while using Bluetooth on my phone maybe it's should work but I will try when I get two of them
@@LiquidRetro Hey I lost mind at a party somebody took mines for there’s do u know where I can just purchase one out the blue at or u can only get it from the company ?

bruh that speaker has more rgb options than my keyboard...
Very thorough review. Thank you. Just bought two of them. Love it so far. I got these for the garage. Perfect.
Glad it helped you out! Have a great day

Sams club has them on sale $20 off a twin pack
That's a good deal
I already have one just was curious what other people think
I just got mine tonight it’s awesome

Good tip, I'll check for a firmware update

Funny how I am listening to a review of flare 2 using a flare 2. 🤣
Same I just want to know how to change the center Button. To rewind
08:30, delay for Netflix & RUclips. Thanks for a great review. Manufacturers and retailers seem to disregard critical evaluation.
6:08 what song?
I wonder if it can withstand any drops from heights
I just picked up one of these used. Sound quality is great but would love to know if there is any indication that the speaker is fully charged.
The light by the charging port goes off when it's full.
@@LiquidRetro thank you for that
@@LiquidRetro there is no light by the charging port that i can find
It's the bass up button above the charging port on my speaker. It flashes when charging, goes solid when charged. I just went and looked to double check
@@LiquidRetro right...gotcha!
Great video. Can you turn off the lights on the speaker. And then which one is better between UE wonderboom 2 and flare 2?
You can turn off the lights but, can't make it default as explained. Sorry I haven't tried the UE speaker to compare it to.
Anker soundcore flare2 vs jbl flip 5, which is better?
I have only tried the Anker myself and I like it. It's my main speaker still.
JBL Flip5 sounds more better with clean sound & deep base...
I will definitely chose JBL Flip5 over the soundcore flare2
@@Slyzigijbl is overpriced
how can you tell what the battery level is, without the app?
Light on the back
Does it work in the shower or will it short out in the shower?
That's not something I have tried but it is IPX7 rated. Most speakers sound bad if wet unless they are specifically designed for it.
@@LiquidRetro my dad got me this speaker and i was worried if i ruined it if it was in the shower
I would put it just outside for better sound quality.
@@LiquidRetro that's what i did
Did you test it while playing any video??
Is there any lag between audio and video?
No noticeable lag one playing on my devices
flare+ does have a lag....
How can I tell when the battery is getting low? How can I tell when it’s fully charged?
When its charged the white led near the charging port will turn off. It gives audible warning with the power is low or look on your device or in the SoundCore app
I love this powerful speaker and the lights are beautiful. If the lights are distracting you, why don't you just switch it off? This speaker is worth every penny!
just bought one for 45 bucks. Got the blue one...waiting for delivery. Looks to be a good bluetooth speaker
That sounds like a deal, enjoy.
@@retroman-- You won't regret it... Let us know your thoughts once it's delivered

@@retroman-- Yes the party casting is awesome!
i love this speaker and ive own just about ever brand and i like loud this is for u if u do to
How does it compete against the Soundcore Flare Plus??
I haven't tested that speaker unfortunately so I can't say
Okay; thnx for your swift reply
Are you Jordan Petersen?
So u charge it with the usb cord ?
Yes USB-C
Bro who is better flare 2 or anker icon
I haven't tried the icon. Sorry
I'm thinking about this one, the Anker Soundcore Flare 2 or the Tribit Stormbox Micro. 🤔
i didnt really liked that music sync with rgb light it looks weird how can i close that animation without closing light?
Is this speaker wireless chargeable
No
Please the Anker Flare 2 vs Zealot S67 which one has better sound quality and bass?
Sorry I haven't tried the Zealot so I don't know
Is it better than Tribit max sound plus?
I haven't heard or tried that one
@@LiquidRetro Ok. Thanks
👍
hi, would you be able to try it with RUclips and Netflix to see the audio delay? thank you
I covered delay in the review, please check again
@@LiquidRetro how minimal is the audio delay? thanks
I don't have a way to quantifiably measure that and give you a number. I didn't find it bothersome. I use it with RUclips all the time. Anker has a pretty good warranty and return policy if you buy from Amazon and have a problem.
@@LiquidRetro thank you so much. you have helped me decide to get one😊
$70. Can't they throw in the power block. However, i love that eq option because i'm kinda picky.
you can change the eq im pretty sure
Not in the SoundCore app, but you can in other audio apps same as you would for any speaker or headphones
@@LiquidRetro then what is that chart where you can change the frequencies
*Led rgb effects not smooth of ritme music* :v fixed firmware please
... can you not just turn the LED's off ?
Yes it's an option but they come back on the next time you turn the speaker back on
@@LiquidRetro oof, surely that would be addressed by firmware. Thanks!
Does the Anker soundcore flare 2 have to be synced with my iphone? I don't want to my phone ringing thru the speaker. Is there a way to turn that off?
You should be able to change that in your Bluetooth settings, or at least I can on Android
does it have a microphone ? or just Speaker ?
i mean if i connected it to a pc
can i speek and listen to my friend or speek ingame ?
It doesn't have a microphone unfortunately
@@LiquidRetro Are you sure about that? It should have a mic.
@@Holata6 it does have a mic
No aux?
No aux
@@LiquidRetro oh oke...I have motion plus...is Flare 2 better than motion plus?
Sorry I haven't tested that one
Motion plus better than flare, SQ n loudness :v vote motion+
can i use it while charging?
I think so
Hey bro which one is the best?plis plis answer
Best between?
@@LiquidRetro speaker in video
Hi. How’s the clarity of mid n High freq? Does it gives u a microphone quality ? Eg clear background and vocal throat sound. Pls advice.
@@iftahizul5887
There's only one speaker in the video.🤦
it doesnt come w a aux hole or spot how can u hook up w tv
Some TV have Bluetooth or there are adapters. Depends on your TV and receiver. I use it primarily with a tablet.
Can you please tell me if you can turn off that light from the application?
I believe so
How do I dry off my Flare 2 after complete submersion? My one fell in the pool and i picked it right back up. Now if i shake it i can hear water inside it.
Shake it and let it air dry
What i dont like with this speaker is that YOU CAN NOT PAIR IT IN STEREO...NO TWS!...also the buttons you can not see it in dark places...
Rs
does google assistant work with this speaker?
On its own no. It's not a smart speaker
Hi can I use the usb type c port for audio to or it just for charging let me know
Just for charging
@@LiquidRetro ok I was thinking about trying to use type c dac for these bluetooth speakers while using Bluetooth on my phone maybe it's should work but I will try when I get two of them
@@tyronecummins4206 I don't think that will work but it's not something I have the ability to test. Let me know how it goes.
@@LiquidRetro ok np creative g3 usb c dac should work but I will test it out
@@LiquidRetro Hey I lost mind at a party somebody took mines for there’s do u know where I can just purchase one out the blue at or u can only get it from the company ?
wait is this evantube because he sounds like that!
✨
BRUH just turn of the led lights -_-
No mic test
It's a speaker, not a bt headset or speaker phone. I don't think it has a mic
