Soundcore Motion+ | The Best High-Res Sound Under $100?

Anker’s audio division Soundcore has now fully established itself as one of the most popular brands for great sounding audio products. Their Motion+ is a bluetooth speaker aiming to deliver flagship features and high-res sound but for under $100. This is a great-sounding waterproof speaker offering support for aptX, stereo pairing, an extended frequency range and in terms of specs on paper…an excellent value option for a portable bluetooth speaker. So is this the best high-res sound under $100?

This portable speaker narrative is one of the better written ones out there. Your writer deserves a raise! Kudos! 👌🏻

[waynedexter]

This speaker deserve the love it’s been getting but with that said I have 2 grips. 1 is I have 2 of these and the connectivity between the 2 sucks. They connect perfectly if they’re side by side but if I separate them by more than 1 meter the slave speaker starts intermittently cutting out. Defeats the purpose of having 2 if you can’t put them on either side of a room. My 2nd grip has to do the EQ if you have 2 speakers. All the presets are synced between the 2 but not the custom. So if I press the bass up on the main speaker the slave will follow suit, that’s not the case with the custom setting. So, with all that said, if you’re planning on just getting 1 budget Bluetooth speaker then the Motion+ is a no brainer. If you love the one you’re thinking about doubling your pleasure then I would definitely take into consideration the issues I mention above and be weary.

Very detailed review. I've purchased this speaker off Amazon after thinking its pretty good value and I like balanced sound that has all frequencies not just a heap of bass that drowns everything else. That seems common in allot of speakers now. I'm looking forward to seeing how good this sounds.

[krijnijzerman]

This is the most useful review i have seen on YouTube yet.

[sethnicholls]

yes I believe it to absolutely be the best Bluetooth speaker for $100, especially if you use the Anker Motion Plus smart app to customize it's 7 band graphic EQ.
And don't forget to do the Motion Plus's firmware update that just came out to fixThe oddities that were happening when pairing two together and using the custom EQ settings from the app. check out some other reviewers custom EQ curves for absolutely hi-res performance that makes a huge difference when judging what the speaker can really do.
The soundcore app and it's customizable EQ are imperative to use guys! Super important!!!
Seriously guys this is an incredible speaker, honestly if it cost $200 it would still be a GREAT DEAL!

This review was amazing! It looks like a great gift for those going away to college this March :)

[piggnant]

the rubberized body - wonder if it'll turn into sticky surface over time (that's happened/ing to my other speakers)

First, I must congratulate you on a really excellent review.

I have recently purchased the Motion+ and agree with the majority of your comments. Regarding TWS pairing, according to SoundCore tech support, the two speakers may have to be much closer than the 5 meter stated limit. Also, considering the comments in your review, Bluetooth connectivity between two Motion+ speakers may not be very robust.

BTW, a (somewhat expensive) alternative to TWS pairing is to use external BT receivers connected to the speakers' 3.5 auxiliary inputs. When used with a dual channel BT transmitter, both speakers will reproduce the same signal (rather than left and right stereo channels). Depending on the application, it may be advantageous to be able to control the volume and equalization of each speaker independently (e.g. via the SoundCore app). In my case, I also wanted to be able to use the low latency version of the AptX codec (AptX-LL) which the Motion+ doesn't natively support. AptX-LL reduces the end-to-end latency to around 50ms which is less than AptX and is significantly less than AptX-HD. In addition, BT 5.1 (and later) allows for much greater separation between transmitter and receiver (which can be very helpful for speaker placement).

Overall, as you mentioned in your review, the Motion+ provides excellent sound quality and comes with many built-in features. It's very good value for this price-point.

I've got a motion plus and it is great. It is very easy to use and it is fun to play around with the sound settings in the app. I recently updated the speakers firmware, and that was a very easy process as well. I'd recommend getting one of these speakers. Anker makes some great products.

[FrancisTernero]

I have one since months ago and waiting for the delivery of my second, this speaker deserves a TWS :)

[shifty]

Great review. Great written voice overlay with good video too. Very well executed here.

Subbed to your channel and thumbs up.

The X2 TWS and this Motion+ are some of Ankers gems.

[Blockchaininshort]

Can I use this speaker plugging the power supply all time or when the battery is dead?

[metalingusx]

You just stole my heart with paramore right now... I'm subscribing

[ayoubchaouch]

Just came across your review. Amazing video, to-the-point and detailed enough to help you decide on your next purchase.
I have a question though.
This or the Flare Plus ? Bass and clarity are my only priority

[carlossilva]

Excellent review, really appreciated it. Do you think it's worth it to buy two motion+ and use them in stereo TWS or simply go for a high end Bluetooth speaker as JBL Extreme 2? Thanks!!!

[melvinreygonzales]

Hi. Planning on buying this tomorrow. Do I need to charge it before using or otherwise? Btw, nice review.

[jonamonette]

I own it, fantastic sound, it’s v e r y loud, fantastic base

[haridassaikhom]

Have you tried Calling through bluetooth connection ? I've checked through aux cable and it does do the job. I got 2 of them and there's no distortion at all. Twos sound is awesome where one sounds perfect for me though. Yes, Bass is balanced and i loved that it doesn't loses its bass quality even at high volumes where other high end speakers loses its bass quality.

[Boigeeneeus]

Which would you recommend from Bose revolve, the anker soundcore motion+, and the UE Megaboom 3?... with price not a factor. Thanks

[Melvorgazh]

Beautiful.
Which to choose?
This one or the Flare one?
