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

Excellent sound and bass response in a very small package. Anker is an excellent brand.

I have 3 its my favorite. Great for the kayak it fits right in the cup holder and is water resistant

The only thing I dont like is the smallish function buttons on the top are black, the same color as their base so it makes it very hard to see them easily. The app does allow for customized equalizer settings (how many isnt specified) along with some presets. The app also allows the user to customize the colors and to turn the device off, NOT ON (of course), with a battery life scale included. Not bad for the $30.00 I spent, imho.

I should start by saying that I also have a UE Wonderboom, which has a good sound; no complaints with it really. That being said, the Anker Soundcore Flare Mini produces a much more natural sound, but can keep up in the bass department as well. The Wonderboom is 17 watts, while the Soundcore Flare Mini is rated at 10 watts. I havent experienced any difference in power and volume though. This is a truly fantastic sounding speaker. I have paired it with my Nvidia Shield TV, and can report no audio sync issues. The speaker is also equipped with an entertaining light show. There are various modes, and it can be easily disabled if desired. The fabric covering gives the Soundcore Flare Mini a premium feel, with soft-touch buttons in top of the device for standard controls. The bottom is rubberized, so it doesnt shake itself off of a table while playing loudly. Honestly, I have no reason to buy a 2nd one of these, but likely will. I like it that much. You will too!

I like that I can take around the house and never loose connection,also used at night to watch TV .

Edit 4/2022 The speaker has been going down hill for a while now. Only going on 2 years of owning it. I have used it 3x a week while Im at work since I bought it. The charging went down hill first. It started not really holding a charge well or it could be that it isnt charging up like it is supposed to because I noticed that the charging light will shut off. Ive tried multiple cords, so I know it is the speaker. The other issue is that it will randomly shut off while you are listening to it and it has recently gotten pretty bad. Like, 1 or 2 songs will play and then it will shut off. At this point, Im so annoyed about having to restart it so often that I have stopped using it and I am currently shopping for a new speaker. Very disappointing. Overall, it is a good speaker if you just need a temporary one to get you through a little while but it definitely wont be a long term speaker. Original I have had this speaker for a couple of weeks now and I love it. I was iffy about getting it because there was a review about it not not having a play/pause button or a button to skip/backtrack songs, but there actually is. This speaker comes with instructions and they explain these features. There is a d like symbol that does all of those. You click once to play/pause, you click twice to skip, and you click 3x to back track. This speaker gets way louder than I was expecting and it has great base. It pairs easily to the Bluetooth on my phone. It is really simple to use and the battery easily lasts my whole 12hr shift at work. I dont think I could have found a better speaker!

This unit sounds good and is easy move around the house and to use with blue tooth. Id tell you more but my daughter stole it. She kicks me off my own blue tooth.

The sound quality, light display and fast shipping are amazing! Easy to sync and enjoy right out of the box.

Very pleased with the sound core flare mini

I had an Anker Soundcore 2 for years and years, and its battery is still multiple days long. This Flare Mini is terrible in the sense that Im charging it twice a week, so lets say 4-8 hours of music playing (no flashing lights). When its positioned correctly, music sounds nice. However, if Im trying to listen to podcasts or audiobooks, it sounds garbled. I think the roundness is problematic for those particular tones, but Im not an audiophile and have no idea... Honestly, I like the bass and volume for music, but the battery life is a no-go. Will be buying something else soon.
