Soundcore Flare Mini Bluetooth Speaker, Outdoor Bluetooth Speaker, IPX7 Waterproof for Outdoor Parties, LED Light Show with 360° Sound and BassUp Technology

Overall, this is a great speaker. I use it almost every day while working out and/or while I’m in the shower. In the summer, I brought it to the pool without worry about it getting wet since it’s waterproof. I also bring it on trips to listen to music with friends since it is so compact. I have/had Sonos Roam and Bose SoundLink speakers and the sound on this is comparable, especially considering the price difference. The Bluetooth connectivity is very seamless with my iPhone 12.

I had the Anker soundcore mini and have enjoyed the great sound from the tiny speaker for a couple of years now. When I saw the Soundcore Flare on Amazon for a very reasonable price I decided to give it a try. I was surprised at how good it sounds. I liked it so much that I bought a second one so I could simultaneously pair them with my phone and listen to my tunes in stereo. Its a solidly built speaker that I take to the beach. Highly recommended.

I use this soundcore mini several times a week its durable its sturdy its waterproof its a great little device for the money.

Has really good sound in a smaller package.

Just got this speaker today. My old one was dying out and I needed something small and loud. The lights I feel are one reason this speaker is this expensive. However, they dont work. I get 2 options of solid blue, one of solid red, one of a blue and yellow, and one option just has nothing, but the light button is turned on on the top. The lights are nice with how dark it can get in my place. Old building and a lack of outlets. So knowing I paid the price I did for some cool lighting options and this is all there is, I feel a little duped. The sound quality is great. But it is only day one.

When this speaker succeeds in connecting it is very satisfactory. Some days it connects on the first try, but other days it takes several tries, or wont connect at all. The laptop, speaker and router are all in the same room, so distance is not the problem. It turns out the connection problem is with the Acer laptop and has been discussed a lot on the internet. The Flare mini connects instantly and flawlessly with both my Galaxy phone and tab. The sound is quite good and the speaker pairs easily with a second speaker My only quibble is that its not possible to know the charge level. Its not a major problem as long as its charged daily since its battery life seems extensive. I have yet to draw it down to shutoff.

I would have gone smaller on second thought but I’m sure great for party or pool crowd. My biggest complaint is buttons are hard to see on top and you have to pick up and hold close to switch up. I’d also have gone for a smaller unit for my purposes but happy with quality and value.

It holds a charge for a long time and sounds good. I do have some quirks with the Bluetooth every now and then. For instance, when I am connected and listening to music it will disconnect and go mute if my wife gets a call on her phone??? I wish the power button was more visible. The phone app was worthless and I dont use it.

Ive had this for about a couple weeks now and I gotta say, this little thing has surprised me in almost every way. First, the sound it produces is absolutely incredible for the size of this thing! The bass is good and the overall sound quality is almost on par with my logitech 2.1 speakers on my PC. Battery life is also good. I havent done any extensive testing but since Ive been using it 1 hour each night, it lasted for more than a week. Shutting off the RGB lights could extend the battery. I have some minor issues. I wish there was a brightness adjustment on the lights. A battery percentage indicator would be nice as well. The micro USB is very dated and needs to go away. Other than that, I highly recommend this. Ill update this review as time goes on and notice something new.

This is the best bluetooth speaker I have ever had. Dont think about anything else, buy this one and you will not regret.
