The$250 Soundcore Boom 2 Plus is powerful, waterproof, and rugged, making it the Bluetooth speaker to get for listening to care-free summer tunes.
Anker Soundcore Boom 2 Plus MSRP $250.00 Score Details “The Soundcore Boom 2 Plus is a loud, clear, and rugged summertime dream that punches well above its weight, all for $250.” Pros Cons A sure sign that summer is on its way is all the new Bluetooth speakers that have started popping up like daisies in a veritable garden of sound. A sound-garden, if you will.
Design Out of the box, the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus lives up to its name, with its substantial 8.4-pound weight and 17inch- by 9-inch by 6-inch body that dwarfs its sibling, but shares many of its rugged design elements. Both are made from the same rock-hard, semico-arse plastic and are available in the same black, green, and blue color options
I took the speaker to the beach for the day and not only does it float, but the powerful bass and volume churned up the water in front and from the sides when sitting in a few inches if water. Sure, it’s not great for the sound, but it’s nice to not have to worry about your speaker rolling into the pool or lake — just don’t let it float away.
Over several days of rigorous testing, I didn’t have to plug the speaker in once. My only complaint here is that there is no battery level indicator on the speaker itself; for that, you have to check the app. The only physical indication on the speaker that the battery is low is when the light on the power button flashes red.
The Soundcore app also gives you additional control and options over sound, offering a 9-band equalizer and a handful of standard presets. You can also activate the BassUp 2.0 feature here, control volume and play/pause/track functions, and turn off notification sounds from your device, which is a handy feature. All in all, the Soundcore app, while not frilly, is well designed and offers some additional dialing in of the speaker, if you so desire.
