Verdict

The Anker Soundcore Motion Boom is a rugged, 30-watt portable Bluetooth 5.0 speaker equipped with pure titanium diaphragm drivers that extend high frequencies up to 40kHz, dual passive radiators, and proprietary BassUp technology for enhanced low-end performance. Its standout advantages include an exceptionally long-lasting 24-hour battery life powered by a 10,000mAh capacity, a buoyant IPX7 waterproof rating that allows it to float, app-based customizable graphic EQ presets, and a USB-A PowerIQ output port to double as a power bank. On the downside, the speaker lacks a 3.5mm auxiliary audio input jack, exhibits an old-school, bulky plastic design, and can experience recessed mid-range frequencies with noticeable audio compression at maximum volume levels.
