Hey Alan, great reviews! I decided to buy the boost v2 because of your reviews. I was really happy with it until now... I just have the boost one day now and there is a distortion when I open bass heavy music (techno etc.). I think that's not normal? What do you think? Am I able to blow the speaker with 80-100% (+ opened bassup) volume with their own preamps in it? Is that even possible? If that's the case, I'm afraid to buy the same model again. Or is it more like production defects? I'm really sad because of the distortion, otherwise superb deep sound! I would be really happy if you can answer me.
have you pushed eq in custom? if you back off the bass eq do you still get that? a small amount of distortion is fine but if it bothers you thats not fine. there is protection in these speakers but still sustained bass distortion over time will take its toll. mine doesnt have heavy distortion but yeah its there if really pushed.
@@alanrossreviews thanks. nah I didn't push the bass on eq. I listen at 50 % now and there is still a bit of distortion.. I think that's not normal. I don't know, maybe I change it with a new one.
@@alanrossreviews yes I'm 100% sure it's v2. And it's not cover rattling, I checked it again. I'm still afraid the next one will get blown again. Maybe I will be careful and don't push it 100%. It's bad to know that you can't push the volume to max. without concerns.. Because sometimes you are with friends and drunk and so and you don't know where the volume level is lol. I will get the same again I guess, really liked it. Maybe it helpes to warm it up a couple of hours on 60% or so? I don't know.
I actually bought a Soundcore Boost - Hearing the speaker myself I was surprised by how much fuller it sounded. I've opted for default over your custom settings, I know I'm losing some clarity but its easier on my ears - for some reasons those higher frequencies after awhile of listening tend to hurt my ears. Not sure why that is.
I have both and here's my opinion: the Boost definitely sounds better, but that's it. The Soundcore 3 is more compact, has better battery life, has subjectively better treble, and a better design than the Boost. The fabric grill on the Boost will get dirty quick and it's harder to clean. **To answer your question below: Yes Sound is important, but so are Battery Life and Form Factor. If you only focus on the Sound but ignore others, what's the point of getting bluetooth speakers anyway?
Wow, a straight to the point informative video. No messing around. You helped me decide to go for the Soundcore 3. I mostly want it for audiobooks and the clarity demonstrated is gold for that purpose. Thank you!

@@alanrossreviews I don't know. For those who had a Soundcore 1 or 2 and like the design of these ? Because there is literally no other reason why you would choose a Soundcore 3 instead of a Maxsound Plus / Boost... 🙃
Actually there are plenty of reasons. The soundcore 3 smaller, lighter, yet it has double battery life. Also its design allows easier cleaning than the Boost. I'm not a fan of that fabric grill on the Boost.
Boost stands alone above the rest of the lightweight division, wonder if Tribit plans to wake up and update Maxsound plus soon. Might be a fun video in the future if you put up your champions against some higher division contenders and see how they fare, David vs Goliath type thing - 2xBoosts vs Boom was great! Keep it up mate, I'm loving it :)
HI Alan , I just removed the cloth cover on my soundcore boost v2 and it sounded much clearer, no need to remove the plastic grill , because when I compared the sound quality with the plastic grill sans the cloth cover vs grill less , the sound difference is minimal / neglegible . Thanks for this video . keep it coming.
@@alanrossreviews Hi Alan , I think you can remove it without disassembling , The cloth is lightly glued on the inside edge of the grill and there is light adhesive behind the cloth , Maybe you can use a needle to catch the cloth at the center area so that you can use a pair of scissors to cut horizontally around the speaker . Then carefully pull the remaining cloth at the edge of the cut apart, Then carefully pull the cloth at 45 degree angle from the edge around the speaker while holding down the grill with your thumb to make sure only the cloth gets removed, The logo in front is aluminum that was stapled to the plastic grill, At the back of the logo there are 2 prongs that was bent , You can work around it by pulling the cloth to stretch it at the edge of the logo then cutting it .And when all this is done . You'll gonna have to wash the speaker with a hand soap , not a strong detergent , To clean the remaining sticky adhesive in the grill . The process is easy , I hope I made it clear enough , Thanks
@@MarsChan07Ik this is from 2 years ago but I'd appreciate if you could reply: Does the removal of the fabric affect water resistance/proofing in any way? Thanks for the instructions by the way
This is POINTLESS . If youre not using ONE of the same factory default factory settings - OF COURSE they will sound different from each other when WE listen to it at home over a device. . the point of this should have been to show how both speakers react to the same settings - so theres a baseline comparison. That should have been included in at least half the comparisons.. THEN - if youre going to tune it to your ear do so to demonstrate what they “can” do.. i can make my Anker earbuds sound like 40 different models with all the EQ settings.
I’m off my painkillers as of today so hoping I can resume soon! I love my Boosts so nice for something portable. I actually prefer to even the Soundcore Icon + . 😁
Just got the Soundcore 3 as a Christmas gift. Main issue was the battery life, I liked the sound of teh Soudncore boost, and it was on sale, but half the battery life is a bummer. AS someone with one of the 24 hour battery life bluetooth speakers, never having to worry about it dying on me, is just too important now.
Wow very good review they both sound decent for a small, light, portable Bluetooth speaker but for 40 (on offer) of those hard earned Great British pounds that don't seem to go very far at the moment i don't think you can get a better speaker for the money than the Anker soundcore boost update ! As long as you dont use the Boost button and set your EQ right with a bit of extra bass and treble youll have the perfect speaker to throw in the glovebox of your car if like me you forget to take it with you places !
@@alanrossreviews Please do it, would love to see it. And maybe throw in old vintage Charge 3 in the mix, cause I have this feeling Boost might beat it in some areas at least.
I have looked everywhere and nobody has a video of 3 Soundcore 3 in party cast. Very curious to hear that. I did get the 2 sc boosts and I love it and now I want to do Ore speakers all over the house. I really wish SC offered party cast for the older models. Anyway thank you for the amazing videos.
Hello Alan Same story as with mini 3🤨. How many Soundcore 3's you think would be needed to be on par with motion boom? Or even motion boom plus as they are all party cast enabled. By no means I ask for a review, just a simple estimation from your huge experience ! Also tell me. Is this even a good idea ? Great greetings for great reviews
Hey mate, i absolutely love your videos. It's the only place i go to check out speaker reviews now. Is there any chance you could do wonderboom 2 vs ue boom 3 and megaboom 3?
@@alanrossreviews Ok. I have a question btw. I recently saw you talking about how sony speakers gradually reduce power and i really really hate that. In your experience is that only a sony thing? Will other speakers have the exact same volume whether they're at 100% or at 5% for example? Particularly the wonderboom 2
I have the original little Guy anker /soundcore. Still The best selling on Amazon. I wonder what mini speaker Sounds better for 20-24$. ? Called Upgraded just for rubber addition. Micro usb
I remember back then before phones became smart the tiniest devices were the ones much desired. It was quite often that you would hear someone proudly say “mine is smaller than yours”.
I would like your assistance kind sir, what is your recommendation for a speaker around this size but has aux in and sounds good too. Id love if my boss soundflex had aux in. I want to use it as a practise speaker for guitar. Currently I use a soundcore boom plus which works great however something smaller would be great
I was going to cop the SoundCore Boost but then I heard through the grapevine that Tribit will be upgrading the MaxSound Plus later this year. So, with that said, I’m going to save what little pennies I have for that speaker 🙂
Thank you, this was extremely helpful! I was having a very difficult time deciding between the two. With the sales going on today I was having a hard time figuring out if the Boost was really worth $14 more than the Soundcore 3. After watching your video I'm going to go with the 3. I only wish I'd found your video sooner! It really saved me a lot of time and helped make the decision very easy.
I love the clarity on the SC3. I even pick it over the Motion+ if I want clarity. I find it sounds best if the 80hz band isn't pushed in the Custom EQ, and just focus on upper bass instead.
How are you measuring latency? I’ve got 2x motion boost V2 A motion boom and I had (but sent back) a motion+. The boost has the best latency of all of them for me using a fireTV, chromecast , iPhone or an anker nebula capsule2 projector. For the others I have to manually adjust A/V sync. But not with the boosts
Between these two I'd choose the boost but I do wonder what you think between 2 boosts or 1 denon envaya. I'm sure the denon is more accurate even after using the eq in the boosts but I'm wondering about how the bass compares.
I _think_ the Boost has micro-USB not USB c and it _does_ have a Aux socket? Perhaps they have changed that since I last saw one? It would make sense for a new model to ditch the Aux and change from micro-USB to USB c.
It has USB C now. I'm not sure if it used to have micro USB, but that's very possible. From what I read on Amazon it used to have AUX, but they removed it in 2020 unfortunately. They put a TWS button where it used to be. So you're probably right that they updated it since you last saw it.
So, they both go for the same price in the states. Who is the targeted audience? "Let's design a new speaker that costs less to make, use marketing words, charge the same price, but make it sound worse."
Today i got again a soundcore boost, at first i wanted the soundcore 3 for my flare 2 with partycast but at primeday the boost costs 42€. And with my galaxy phone i still can use stereo audio and it's works perfect.
Hey Alan. I want a bluetooth speaker primarily for podcast and audio books. So I need good sound clarity more than bass. Should I go for the boost or the soundcore 3?
What's the difference between soundcore motion boom and motion pro the reason I'm asking is in my local store they only sell motion pro looks the same as the motion boom
Alan, I really love your videos, informed, technical and of course fun.! Question : as a travel speaker for those late nights on the balcony on the Costa Del Sol (where neighbours are to be considered) would you choose the SC3 over the Boost for convenience of size and more controlled bass? Many thanks 🍸
well? another speaker sale alan!! i just orderd a soundcore boost! to replace my flip5, wish i had seen or knew about your chanel 1 yr ago. i could of bought 2 soundcores for 1 jbl.. my stupidity. as usual? exellent funny awesome review! good day from the yankee across the large pond!lol!

I bought the Soundcore Boost when it first came out on the market originally and it was worth every penny for $50 including the case. I've thrown everything I could at it and I haven't been able to hurt the speaker yet or get the base in the audio to distort the audio. Really good build quality.
Sights firmly set on the Boost. Was also looking at a motion+ for nearly double the price but then I imagined two boosts baby..:D Is there anyway to check if the boost is the updated version?

Between these two I'd choose the boost but I do wonder what you think between 2 boosts or 1 denon envaya. I'm sure the denon is more accurate even after using the eq in the boosts but I'm wondering about how the bass compares.
Thanks for the comparison BTW! 👍
i think two boosts take it for decent volume levels where they sound much fuller. but they will be muddy at lower volumes.
What is a different anker soundcore boots and soundcore boots upgraded
upgraded just sounds better
@@alanrossreviews so in you Opinion the new Boost gen 2 is better in base and maybe sound than the Soundcore 3?
@@abdullahnaquib9649 if you like your music bass heavy rather than clearer
Did you ever drive a Capri in black.

Wonderboom2 vs. Boost? Which one...?
I _think_ the Boost has micro-USB not USB c and it _does_ have a Aux socket?
Perhaps they have changed that since I last saw one? It would make sense for a new model to ditch the Aux and change from micro-USB to USB c.
It has USB C now. I'm not sure if it used to have micro USB, but that's very possible. From what I read on Amazon it used to have AUX, but they removed it in 2020 unfortunately. They put a TWS button where it used to be. So you're probably right that they updated it since you last saw it.
Boost is really fun to listen to...Big sound in small package...
Doesn't get the love it deserves 🤗
@@alanrossreviews you're right...
So, they both go for the same price in the states. Who is the targeted audience? "Let's design a new speaker that costs less to make, use marketing words, charge the same price, but make it sound worse."
but slightly smaller 🤪
Hello badi, I think i need more in clarity and up volume i think. What should i pick?
marshall emberton?
Soundcore boost 🥺🥺🥺
Soundcore 3 good bass?
it has some bass, not like the boost though
@@alanrossreviewsthanks

Hi! What is the autonomy of Soundcore Boost?
huh?
Which is the best?
Today i got again a soundcore boost, at first i wanted the soundcore 3 for my flare 2 with partycast but at primeday the boost costs 42€.
And with my galaxy phone i still can use stereo audio and it's works perfect.
good job 👍
Any delay if you listen and watch movie with two paired Soundcore 3 speakers?
i only have one soundcore 3 🤷♂️
@@alanrossreviews Thanks anyway for fast response.
Hey Alan. I want a bluetooth speaker primarily for podcast and audio books. So I need good sound clarity more than bass. Should I go for the boost or the soundcore 3?
Soundcore 3
@@alanrossreviews thx!
I’m surprised you did a video comparing these 2 considering the Soundcore 3 got trounced by the MaxSound Plus.
im full of surprises 😜
Sound core 3 has more clear upper high end bass but sound core boost has more low ends bass.
yep! for me low end is a must!
how does the boost compared to the soundcore motion plus?
well it wont go as loud and isnt as detailed, smaller sound. but two boosts can challenge the m+
What's the difference between soundcore motion boom and motion pro the reason I'm asking is in my local store they only sell motion pro looks the same as the motion boom
it has lights and the drivers are cheaper
Also no TWS on Pro and a smaller battery
Can the SCB match the denon envaya dsb-250bt?
nope the 250bt remains the standard for its size but of course costs way more
@@alanrossreviews thank you sir! Because of your video review i bought 2 soundcore boost And i was not disappointed.
Alan,
I really love your videos, informed, technical and of course fun.!
Question : as a travel speaker for those late nights on the balcony on the Costa Del Sol (where neighbours are to be considered) would you choose the SC3 over the Boost for convenience of size and more controlled bass?
Many thanks 🍸
maybe id go with the tribit maxsound plus rather than the sc3.
@@alanrossreviews
Much obliged Alan, I’ll check it out 🥂
well? another speaker sale alan!! i just orderd a soundcore boost! to replace my flip5, wish i had seen or knew about your chanel 1 yr ago. i could of bought 2 soundcores for 1 jbl.. my stupidity. as usual? exellent funny awesome review! good day from the yankee across the large pond!lol!
blimey, how many videos you watched this week? 😝
@@alanrossreviews oh i dont know. i watch youtube and odysee everyday! i think you ought to get a comission from all the big dog like soundcore, jbl,ect for doing such a great review of speakers, your mentioned on all the other speaker reviews at lest one person. everybody knows you alan!! plus yours are funny and entertaining!
oh thats good to know! people are talking about me? woohoo, i kinda feel important now 😝😝
@@alanrossreviews oh yeah that's a good thing! There all compliments? On some other speaker reviewers channels!!! Lol!!!
Bout time cause i have had the oluv fanboys all over my channel for years 😭
Boost is a perfect travel speaker.
I just dont think its very throwable
the review was great indeed. i expected you would disassemble the devices then we will able to see the inside of the speakers. however thank you.
no im not a disassembly channel 🤪
@@alanrossreviewslool. im going to buy soundcore boost. i have soundcore select too. i got that sc boos is better than sc3 but u wanted to respect to people who have sc3 do u agree?😉😁
it has more bass, for me thats fundamental but s3 will be a gentler more detailed sound
@@alanrossreviews i have soundcore select. is there any different between sc3 and sc select,?
sure. sc3 has more bass and the quality is almost better.
I bought the Soundcore Boost when it first came out on the market originally and it was worth every penny for $50 including the case. I've thrown everything I could at it and I haven't been able to hurt the speaker yet or get the base in the audio to distort the audio. Really good build quality.
the newer version is better though
@@alanrossreviews In what way is the newer one better???
@@bryantfloyd7471 upgrade sofware
What's with all the cartoons I guess he thinks he's funny and cute but nobody else does
well your name says its all mr joke 👍
Anker Soundcore Boost base sounds booming and clear at maximum volume. The Soundcore 3 just isn't as good as the Soundcore 3.
Sights firmly set on the Boost. Was also looking at a motion+ for nearly double the price but then I imagined two boosts baby..:D
Is there anyway to check if the boost is the updated version?
upgraded does not have aux input.
