in CES 2024, Anker announced some new charging products, along with some smart home devices under the Eufy brand. The company has been quiet about its Soundcore audio product line, which includes headphones and speakers, but it has announced a new Bluetooth speaker, the Soundcore Boom 2. It is scheduled to ship in mid-February, with a list price of $130.
I liked the original sound core motion boommade ours best bluetooth speaker It’s on our list and was one of the best value boombox Bluetooth speakers of the past few years (selling for about $1). $80). Anker also released a step-up version, Motion Boom Plus, which won him a CNET Editors’ Choice Award in 2022.
I haven’t heard the new Boom 2 (Anker dropped “Motion” from its name), but it has twice the output rating as the original, so it plays louder and emphasizes more bass. and should probably provide clearer sound at higher volumes. It also has some built-in LED lights to help create a party atmosphere. As I said, the list price is $130 (which is $30 more than Motion Boom’s list price), but I think he could probably sell for closer to $100.
As soon as I receive the review sample, I would like to share my impressions after actually using it. In the meantime, here are the key specs for the Boom 2, according to Anker:
