> 3 dayI 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!

> 3 dayI got a $100+ Jambox about 8 years ago and the technological advances since then are just incredible. Now for less than $40 I have a huge upgrade in sound and functionality. I love that this is so flexible - they can be brought into the shower/bath, play outside while gardening or hanging out, and we also set up two in the living room for a formidable surround sound that put much more expensive and huge bulky speakers to shame. No it wont blow out a $500-$1000 set up, but for $80 (for two flares), that is expecting a bit much. This is more than sufficient for all but the snobbiest of audiophiles for 80% of your musical needs. I bought one, and immediate bought another to sync up. Very happy. Thanks to the other reviewers here for the instructions on syncing and navigating playlists. You are the real MVPs in the absence of decent instructions coming with the product.

Greater than one weekI like this speaking and use it for my workouts however, its not as loud as I was hoping, BUT I really like it turned up when Im working out. For some reason its dying on me a lot however, it could be related to a charging issue, maybe the charger is the problem. Im still trying to figure it out. Ive had the speaker for a while.

Greater than one weekI researched/read an awful lot about getting a pair of the Mini Flare versus the Flare+. I thought Id start small and, if it was inadequate, I could return them and splurge for the Flare+. (I briefly considered the Flare 2, but stereo was a priority since I want to put one on either side of our hottub...and the Flare 2 is mono.) With the Mini Flare, Ive been very, very satisfied. It has a nice rich bass, sounds good from all angles, and the lights look pretty sweet. The unit itself looks sharp and looks way more expensive than it is. I especially like the stereo sound and couldnt ask for anything more (except maybe a circle of lights on the top like the Flare 2 has...which would look even greater). Im 100% satisfied with my pair of Mini Flares.

Greater than one weekUpdated! Anker saw my original review and reached out to me. I was sent a replacement speaker, and it works phenomenally! Excellent customer service! [ORIGINAL REVIEW] This speaker has amazing sound, an excellent look, and great battery life! I love having this thing along with me, be it at home, work, or just anywhere on the go. My only problem is that when I really want to blast it, it plays at full volume for a little bit (maybe 10 mins) and then there are very noticeable drops in volume. I check my device to see if I accidentally turned down the volume but it is not the case. The only way to re-gain the volume is to restart the speaker. Then it happens again 10 mins later. This is the only problem I have with this product.

> 3 dayThe speaker works as advertised, and it seems to be built well, but the sound is noticeably worse than the JBL I have, so Ive mostly stopped using the Soundcore speaker. Music sounds hollow and spoken voices in podcasts are noisier than they should be.
