Good speaker to add to my bluetooth speaker collection of JBL, Sony, and Bose. This one is now the big boy compared to the others. The App you can download lets you control the EQ and lights, etc. Sound quality is what I expect from Anker - really good, and the lights look cool so I'll leave them on. This won't break the bank so I may purchase more to pair them all together (up to 100) and have a party! It isn't very heavy either but the sound coming out makes it sound like a much bigger speaker. I especially like the BassUp feature and that it's waterproof which leads me to the pros below. Pros: USB-C charging Waterproof BassUp feature/customizable EQ Speaker Lights Not heavy Can charge your phone/accessories in the back Speakerphone Price App is intuitive Cons: can't think of any

Super happy with. Great bass and loud sound overall. Is waterproof, tested by my preteen. Love the color changing. Have had for a couple years now, still works perfectly.great deal. I think $99 at the time, back in 2022. There’s also a button to turn off the color changing lights if you want.

I love this speaker! The sound is amazing, it’s compact, easy to use and has cool features! It’s even water proof! I am so happy I decided to get this speaker. I use it often and I highly recommend it to others. It’s made for great times listening to music by the pool this summer.

I was excited to receive the Soundcore Select Pro speaker, mostly because I wanted to see how big or small it was as the picture and description were not clear. The suspense has ended, the speaker is 12 inches wide and about six inches tall at the handle. Pool and beach weather are soon upon us and if you’re like me, I already have too much to lug across the sand. The Select Pro’s small size and light weight make it the perfect addition and you don't have to worry about it getting wet since it's IPX7 waterproof and it floats! With a few exceptions, the Select Pro operates just like every other Bluetooth speaker -pair it, download the app to control it and enjoy. nothing new or exciting here. What is exciting though is everything else about this little speaker. As for the sound, the Select Pro sounds great for its size and has enough volume to fill a yard or pool area. The app has an equalizer with four presets and allows custom settings to adjust the sound to your liking. You can hear the bass but it's not wall shaking. I found the Soundcore Signature setting with Extra Bass to be the most pleasing to me. The custom setting on the app does not allow you to start with one of the presets and make adjustments, you always start with the settings in the middle at zero - not a deal breaker, just a minor inconvenience. The Select Pro also offers the ability to pair up to 100 speakers together for larger areas or parties. As this feature is becoming more prevalent with speakers, it would be nice if you were able to pair multiple brands as well. To add atmosphere to your gatherings, the speakers also light up. This is controlled both by the app as well as with a button on the top of the unit. There are four variations to choose from, Beach Party which dances to the music with white “strobes”, Camping trip which is the same as Beach Party but without the white strobes. Evening Breeze and Midnight Groove which just rotate between colors, one fades side to side and the other fades both sides together. My only negative about this is all the modes “flash”. I would like one of them to just fade between the colors smoothly rather than off on off on. Perhaps this can be added with a firmware update. Another thing with the lights, when you change the volume, the individual sides light up, right for volume up, left for volume down making it easy to see from a distance that the speaker is responding. Finally on lighting, four buttons on the top of the speaker also light up. Power, Lighting, Bluetooth and BassUp. There are also multi-function, volume up & down buttons which are not lit. LIke many bluetooth speakers, you can answer calls on the Select Pro. Calls sound clear and loud and the party on the other end is able to hear clearly and didn't hear background noise during the call. Battery life is rated at 16 hours. Charging is through USB C and there is a USB A jack that will provide backup power to your phone as well. Of course, your mileage will vary depending on loudness and lighting use. I really like the Select Pro. Are there better sounding speakers? Yes. But at this price point, the size, sound and feature set are JUST RIGHT. I would highly recommend this to a friend.

This is the best waterproof portable speaker in $60.
