      Yes, but it wont be on that price level if they will add tweeters. Tweeters are good, it really adds more details. But i guess soundcore targeted Budget-Bass head buyers for this Motion Boom. For it has decent highs! for these titanium speakers are very good Full range speakers which produce Mids and highs as well as Bass. Same technology that Charge 3&4& Flip 5 has ( No tweeters).

    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.

    @richardgregorowski7848 3 года назад +18

    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.

    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.

    hello soundcore,
    i`m fan of your products so writing this letter to show my needs. i`m a nomad traveler on the foot and often i like to make a little rave (party) mostly outside. at the moment i`m using motion + because it`s compact enough and not too heavy to be carried in my backpack and also because the quality of sound. but i wish a little bit louder speaker, maybe 50 w and also more bass. i know there is motion boom but it`s the same loudness as the motion + (30 w) and there are no tweeters, no 3,5 mm audio output (i need that), no 15° angle dispersion of the sound (which is really useful feature) and also there is no aptx support. so yeah...i`m really not satisfied with all this features being cut and not being implemented into the motion boom. please make a speaker up to 2 kg (still comfortable to carry in backpack for a long walk) with all that features motion + had but just a bit louder and with deeper bass. thank you

As far as sound goes, Motion+ I have to agree, it has clarity and detail but lower bass. I already have 2 Motion+ and I was thinking to upgrade to 2 Booms but I will decide against them as it seems.

    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.

    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.

      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. 👍👍

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.

      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. :)

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

    Nice Video! I`m choosing between the Soundcore Motion Boom vs JBL Charge 4? What is your sugestion soundwise between these two? Thanks!
