The Boom 2 Plus: A Versatile Speaker with Impressive Bass
In our latest review, we put the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus to the test and were impressed by its performance. One of the standout features of this speaker is its battery gauge, which can be turned on and off remotely through the application. This feature allows for easy monitoring of the speaker's battery life, making it perfect for outdoor events or long camping trips.
The Boom 2 Plus also comes with a custom equalizer that can be used to adjust the sound to your liking. The default preset is the Soundcore Signature, but users can also save their own presets and experiment with different settings. This feature is especially useful for those who want to customize the sound of their speaker without having to resort to third-party apps or complicated settings.
Another notable feature of the Boom 2 Plus is its ability to toggle on and off via the application. This feature allows users to control the speaker's functionality remotely, making it easy to switch between different modes or adjust the volume from a distance. The application also provides access to firmware updates, which can help keep the speaker running smoothly.
The Boom 2 Plus also features an impressive range of light presets, including eight different modes that can be controlled through the application. These modes include Rainbow Flash, Flame, Energy Scan, Cyclone, Lightning, and Bounce, each with its own unique lighting effect. The speaker's brightness can also be adjusted using the application, making it perfect for outdoor events or parties.
But what really sets the Boom 2 Plus apart is its bass response. The Bass Up 2.0 feature provides a super-punchy and impressive deep bass that is sure to turn heads. We were able to feel the bass vibrating through our table and even detect it with our secondary camera microphone, which was equipped with a directional microphone.
We put the Boom 2 Plus to the test using a sample track called "Superhero," which features vocals, treble, and punchy bass. The speaker's low end response was impressive, especially at lower volumes where many speakers tend to lack depth. Turning on the Bass Up 2.0 feature really brought out the sound of the track, making it feel like we were right there in the midst of the action.
One of the most useful features of the Boom 2 Plus is its ability to provide a good balance between bass and treble at lower volumes. This makes it perfect for those who want to enjoy music without feeling overwhelmed by the bass. The speaker's highs are also reasonably detailed, with no harsh or unpleasant overtones.
Overall, the Boom 2 Plus is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a versatile speaker that can deliver impressive sound quality. Its features make it perfect for outdoor events, parties, or camping trips, and its ability to provide good bass response at lower volumes makes it a great option for those who want to enjoy music without feeling overwhelmed.
In addition to its impressive sound quality, the Boom 2 Plus also boasts an IPX7 waterproof rating, making it perfect for use in wet conditions. We put the speaker through a series of tests, including submersion in water and exposure to various levels of rain. The speaker performed flawlessly, with no issues or damage reported.
The Boom 2 Plus is available from Soundcore's official website and Amazon, and is priced competitively with other speakers on the market. Whether you're looking for a reliable outdoor speaker or just want to enhance your music experience at home, the Boom 2 Plus is definitely worth considering.

the reverse side of it on the back of it here you'll see all of those key specs that I talked about in the intro but what do we get inside and just how well packaged up is it so I can see that there's a lot of padding each side for the speaker and a bit of a gap either side there that's good and this is our quick start guide we have a type c to type c cable and then here on the left this is our shoulder strap so you can sling it over your shoulder and carry it around that way then it's really powerful 140 WS with some groundbreaking base for the size of it the boom2 plus really does deliver

it's customizable these colors via the application and you can sync it with the music using sound cause algorithm along the tops our obvious controls there so the power Bluetooth we have the metor control here volume up and down this is for the LEDs and this here is our base Up 2.0 Buton button so very important this one and I'll demonstrate it later on the difference it does make then along the back you'll see the sound core logo there now the Plastics they have used very durable nice matte coating to it and it will handle drops no problems now there is a gasket right here that does State boom 2 plus now you do need to keep this gasket in place to retain that waterproof rating which is ipx7 behind that you'll find the 3.5 mm in we have a type-c port there for charging and it can charge up to 30 W runtime is up to 20 hours so that is ultra long for a portable Bluetooth speaker finally along the bottom of the boom 2 plus there are four solid rubber feet overall the build quality is excellent It's a strong solid sturdy finish to the whole thing and it is waterproof so let's put that to the test ipx7 is mentioned but it will also float so you don't have to worry about it too much if you accidentally drop it in a swimming pool but I'm going to throw it in let's see what happens all right here we go now of course I don't recommend doing this for fun but if it was an accident you accidentally did that and whoops no my speaker well there we go it floats and you can easily go and just recover that quickly now because of the pool chemicals and everything yeah I will definitely be rinsing that speaker down but fine let's see if it works though now so we just rinse it down a little here wash off any of that choring and then turn it on so push on on my other phone and working no problems at all and just briefly I'll show you the application it's not bad for a speaker all the options we do get so you can see the boom 2 plus here in the app battery gauge there can turn it on and off remotely volume control turn off and on your sound there while pause it B Up 2.0 toggle that on and off via the application now we have a custom equalizer that you can use even full band right here you can save your own presets if I get out of that I'll show you the presets we do get so the default one is this as always with sound core it is sound core signature there is voice treble boost balance and getting out of this I will just show you here with there's our menu for where you get the firmware updates I've had one already auto power office here the button brightness where you can toggle that on and off the speaker prompts too and here are the light presets so there are eight modes in total rainbow flash flame energy scan cyclone and then lightning and bounce you can control the brightness of that right here with the application so it's a great app there's quite a bit in there for a speaker so basically everything you can do on the speaker you can do here and a little bit more of course most important thing is how does it sound now with the bass Up 2.0 you get some super Punchy impressive deep bass coming out of this I mean it starts to even make my table here and a few things in the room vibrate a little bit it is that powerful now I have the volume set in this little sample I'm going to give you to 50% and I am using a lav mic of course that's optimized for voice but I do have a secondary camera with a directional microphone that is well it's going to be able to get and capture a lot more frequencies than just kind of voice ones so it should give you a general idea of what to expect but really you have to be here in person to not only hear that bass but feel it now it's impressive and you'll see so first up is the track that I'm going to play here it's no copyright sounds for obvious reasons and it's called superhero this track it is an old one it's got vocals to it some trible and some very Punchy Basse tracks on this the lows are quite good so first up the sample old make sure that the base Up 2.0 is off so I'll play a few seconds of the track and then I'll give a signal I'll turn it on and we are definitely going to hear the difference it makes on can I be your superer superer okay that's it off now and I'll do it one more put it on be super wow really brings it out super okay so that makes a big difference and where I think it's the most useful is at lower volumes not when you're you know pushing it out High volumes maybe at a party or at the beach or whatever where we can use this so next to the pole but maybe you just want to chill out at home and you want a little bit of base and other loudspeakers I found at lower volumes normally they're lacking a little bit until you really push that volume up then you start to hear that bass where it gets to you know nice levels for you but with this when you turn on the Bas Up 2.0 at the lower volume levels you really hear that and it does help and it's powerful base I mean you see those passive radiators getting a thorough workout either end of the boom 2 plus and as I showed you the Clips at the start there it really is working hard there and just fantastic base really can't say that enough how good it is so all up it's a very good versatile speaker for those of you that bass lovers obviously but the mids do sound very good there's the tweeters in there so highs they're reasonably detailed they're not overly harsh or anything either so they haven't gone overboard with that you've got with the application equalizer settings you have the light Dynamic light settings too as well there's eight different presets but you can also set your own colors with that then we have 30 W charging up to 20 hours of runtime ipx7 waterproof rating to it so no worries if you're at the beach with this and it gets a bit of water on it you're next to the pole someone splashes it and as I showed you in this video even if it fell in the pool or in the sea
