soundcore by Anker Select 2S Bluetooth Speaker with 20W Stereo Sound, BassUp, Custom EQ, Wireless Stereo Pairing, IPX7 Waterproof and 16H Playtime, Portable Speaker for Home, Hiking and Outdoors

Lovely bit of kit, sound is very good and the extra bass can certainly be felt when pressed. Connects to two BTs at a time which is handy. Operating time is good too and has let me down, charging is also quite quick and supplied lead is solid but quite short. Solid build, easy button operation and aesthetics as usual from Anker. Excellent purchase.

I've been on the hunt for a new speaker for a while, looking to replace an older (and overly flashy) RGB Sony speaker without breaking the bank. My needs were simple: I wanted something compact for my desk that had good bass, clear sound for calls, and was just simple to use. This Soundcore Select 2S has turned out to be the perfect solution. My main use for this is as a permanent speaker for my secondary computer, which I use for work. This means it's handling everything from listening to music on Spotify, watching YouTube videos, and being the main audio output for my Zoom and Google Meet calls. For this, it is flawless. The 20W stereo sound is surprisingly rich and clear. The clarity is excellent for voice calls and YouTube videos, with no tinniness at all. When I switch to music, the "BassUp" technology really does its job, providing a punchy, satisfying bass that I was missing from my old speaker. It's a great all-rounder. It's also incredibly simple. It's compact and sits discreetly on my desk, it connected via Bluetooth instantly, and the 16-hour playtime is a huge bonus, as I don't need to have another wire permanently plugged in, which keeps my desk setup clean. The IPX7 waterproofing is just a nice bit of peace of mind against accidental coffee spills. My only "nice to have" would have been a 3.5mm aux port, just for a wired connection to the PC, but the Bluetooth is so stable that it's not an issue, and for this price, I am absolutely not dropping a star for it. I know there's another popular model (the Soundcore 2, I think), but this Select 2S is everything I was looking for. If you need a simple, compact, great-sounding, and affordable speaker for your home office, desk setup, or just for general listening, I can't recommend this enough. It's a 5-star product all day long.

First thing I noticed was how easy it was to set up paired with my Mac Mini M4 in seconds and hasn’t dropped the connection once. Sound?, it’s better than I expected for the price. Vocals come through really clearly, and it gets loud enough to fill a small room without sounding distorted. The bass isn’t super deep, but turning on BassUp definitely gives it a bit more punch, especially for casual listening. If I had to nitpick, I’d say it lacks that “wow” factor if you’re really into music and want booming bass or super crisp detail, you’ll probably want something more expensive, but for background music, Podcasts, Desktop Speaker or just something reliable to carry around, it does the job really well. Overall, I’d say it’s a great value speaker 9/10 and worth it if you’re on a budget and want something simple that works quite well.

It's a very good value for money bluetooth speaker with some good eq options via the app. Battery life seems pretty good with a run time so far of 10hrs and I've not recharged it yet so the estimated run time looks about right. Speaker is quite smart looking with good weight. The overall sound quality is very good. It doesn't have that low down "oomph" that others have mentioned and as speakers evolve over the years and cost invariably come down and tech gets better, that's my only disappointment, the low end response is average. However, if you can position this speaker near a corner or underneath a shelf a few inches away from the wall, then that helps a great deal. I can make a direct comparison with a Jam Heavy Metal speaker that I had for many many years and that had a lot less output wattage wise than this Select 2S but sounded far more punchy and because of that, it felt louder. Anyway, value for money this is a very very good speaker but don't expect disco thumping bottom end.

This thing is extremely durable, I was painting and I dropped it into the paint, knocked off the ladder somehow, and true to form it lands in the paint, took it out washed it and the sound was just as good, it’s portable enough to carry around and for its size it’s a good little speaker, it’s mainly in my shower as it’s waterproof and the battery life is great, setting it up is simple, I mean it’s just Bluetooth turn it on and your phone should see it, I stream from Spotify to it no issues and it has an extra bass setting which I turn off as my Spotify is set to quite a bass heavy sound, if you’re after a good value, hard wearing waterproof speaker highly recommended

I purchased this Soundcore Select 2S to solve a specific issue: upgrading the thin, tinny built-in speakers on a small TV in the kitchen. For this setup, it has proven to be an absolute game-changer. Sound Quality & Voice Clarity The jump in audio quality was immediate. The 20W dual drivers deliver clear, rich sound with plenty of weight behind it. Dialogue in news broadcasts, cooking shows, and movies comes through distinctly over background kitchen noise (like running water or exhaust fans). The BassUp feature adds decent depth without muddying mid-range vocal clarity. Connectivity & Convenience Pairing with the TV via Bluetooth was seamless, taking under a minute to configure. Once paired, it reconnects automatically and reliably every time the TV powers on without dropping connection or lagging behind the picture. The physical control buttons on top are tactile and easy to use even with wet or floury hands while cooking. Battery Life & Portability The battery performance is outstanding. After multiple days of daily use for meals and cooking sessions, it hasn't needed a single recharge yet. The compact footprint fits neatly on a kitchen counter or shelf without taking up valuable prep space, and the IPX7 waterproof rating offers total peace of mind near the sink. Final Verdict If you need an affordable, compact speaker to replace tinny built-in TV audio or simply want a reliable Bluetooth speaker for daily home listening, this delivers exceptional value and performance.

For the money I paid for this compact little stereo BT speaker I’m impressed. Sound quality is great too. Not as good as my mini rig bt speakers but they cost 6x more. The money I paid for this is well worth it. It pairs easy with my iphone for internet radio and my iPad for films and YouTube etc. The S2 speaker like any other speaker needs burn in time. Do not play it loud until you have done this if you want my advice. It will sound much better with punchier bass after burn in. Take it easy for the first few days. I’d say 100 hours is better. Most folk buy a speaker and expect it to sound sweet out of the box, they just don’t but give it time. This is why folk complain that some speakers sound tinny or bass-less. Burn it in and you’ll be surprised.. For the money this S2 is amazing. Spend more if you want better hi res. This is a budget mini speaker but sounds better than budget.

It's a bloody good speaker for the price you pay 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼. Nice and loud, great sound accuracy, stereo ✅, you can boost the bass and it has substantial battery life. Obviously not as amazing as a £100 JBL, but it's not far off and much more reasonably priced.

Belle sensation de qualité. Petite enceinte compacte (doublée pour un effet stéréo) idéale pour écouter les podcasts, et même écouter de la musique sans trop gêner les voisins. Excellent rendu sonore, seules les graves saturent un peu quand on monte le volume. Les médium et aiguës sont bien restituées et sans latence constatée. Ajustable via une appli simple et bien conçue. L'appairage bug parfois, rien de grave. A voir dans le temps tout comme la durabilité de la batterie. A ce prix et pour un usage précis (ne pas attendre de miracle concernant les basses) je conseille ce produit et cette marque qui rivalise avec les meilleures beaucoup plus chères.

Comment le recharge pas de pris avec?! Misanthrope
