🔊 Anker Soundcore Icon Mini: Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker, Explosive Sound, High IP67 Water Resistance (Black) Review

Having owned and used Anker's Soundcore Sport for several years I was delighted to receive and try my new Soundcore Icon Mini. Unfortunately, my enthusiasm was short-lived. Sound quality was the same, if not slightly worse, than my previous Soundcore Sport. The new Soundcore Icon Mini has a similarly sized main driver but with a passive cooler to add some bass. But the obvious downside that will make me want to come back to this is that it's nearly impossible to stand the speaker upright…

So originally bought to watch movies and when the phone sound is not enough. This is a first review. With the fine tuning turned on, everything went quickly and easily. Barring the flesh, the bass is definitely there, voice is clear, it crackles at high volumes, but that's to be expected for something of this size. So far so good and I'm glad I ordered this speaker. Anker has released another great product. A week later - the device works perfectly - charged three times from 0 - 100. still…

Hello. I think this little speaker is a good value at $30. When I received it I wasn't sure what to expect. It came out of the box with an 80% charge, which was very cool. Connected to iPhone 8 without any problems. The buttons were very easy to find and I knew which button was which within minutes. Having a bluetooth speaker with tactile buttons is very important to me as I am blind and the buttons on some speakers are not easy to find. I really like how loud this little speaker sounds. It's…

I sometimes have a hard time falling asleep and I've found listening to the Get Sleepy podcast helps me a lot. I tried a pair of Bluetooth headphones with a padded headband and found them to be annoying when moving around at night. Pillow speaker reviews were everywhere. Having had good experiences with other Anker products, I decided to give this one a try. I tucked it right into the edge of the pillowcase and it stayed in place well. It was small enough that I could keep it away from me but…

I bought this as a pillow speaker after reading a lot of bad reviews about 'real' pillow speakers. I was planning to use it via Bluetooth from a phone on SoundCore so there were no wires, but the audio delay between the phone and the radio tuned to the same stations wreaked havoc with our different sleeping habits. But the SoundCore accepts line-level audio in addition to Bluetooth, so I now connect it to the headphone jack with a 2-meter stereo cable. Put it under the pillow, the thickness is…

For what this product is, it's usually excellent quality from Anker! Surprisingly powerful bass, I don't recommend placing it on a hard surface while playing heavy bass music at full volume! Beautiful and loud enough to carry in your pocket with a wireless or extra cable connected to your music or audio electronics device. Plugs in and plays FM/AM pocket radios very well and loudly and for that reason it can be used to extend a pocket radio's battery life for hours if you are listening through…

I put off buying a Bluetooth speaker for years because I never understood why they can't be stereo paired. This seems like a missed opportunity (why replace the boombox with actually mono audio?). I carried wired computer speakers to picnics, outdoor events, etc. Eventually, someone suggested what I was looking for. pretty impressive. I was initially disappointed with what I heard until I switched to a higher quality audio file; For such a small speaker, I'm honestly surprised I could hear the…
