Bro has never had a Tribit speaker
Soundcore Boom 2 has 24 hours of water resistance?! I think you mean battery life. 😂
In this category only speaker that interests me is the ult field 7
I am a fan of Sony speakers, should i get the Linkbud speaker or maybe a sonos roam 2?
Dont buy bose soundlink flex. It sure has great sound to it but mine got damaged due to exposure to sun. When i went to store for repair, they said its not possible. So, now that speaker is sitting idle in my room with no use.
I was so impressed with the comparison at [7:45]! It really sets your review apart.

Forgot it’s going in a shop, so dust proof would be good also.
Where is soundcore select 4 go?
What do you think of LG XG8T XBOOM GO or the LG PL7. I have the pl 7 and love it. Looking for a new speaker. Are they not as good anymore? Also not a fan of huge bass. Thanks for the help.
What about the soundlink Max from bose?
What about anker soundcore motion+? And where is sound samples for viewing apeakers? Often sounding even recorded for youtube videos can tell more then trying to describe whats it sounds like..
Bose sound link flex or the beats speaker? Which has the best sound?
Major review-sickness, also repeating video and very light touch on every device, nothing you cannot see on product pages in a webshop.
No Doss soundbox xl …
Which one do you think is sounds better Soundcore X600 or Soundcore Boom 2 ?
I hate how any bose product sounds. Way overpriced and I don’t know why it has such a good rep. Their sound is always muffled and flat to me.
Can you mention how many OHMS and RMS next time or at least make them sound.
Versa-tull, not versa-tyle.
I bought the soundcore boom 2 plus for 150 bucks really a no brainer, tweaked the EQ and the sound is massive!
Make video in hindi language also like earbuds video
Ok, Now I find your selection suspect the JBL small speakers blow away the Bose IMHO!
No way! You’re Nate’s brother. Love to you guys❤️
Not a single jobsite speaker why?
Can I use Pandora on the Samsung Music Frame?
not mentioned UE in this video is straight up criminal
What about Tribit?
I wanna buy the sony ult field 7 for parties (or just blasting music in my bedroom) and i want your opinion, is it really worth it? Btw i already have the srs xg300
Sony linkbud speaker for me, since I own a lot of sony products. Not sure if you can connect 2 at the same time. If you can is a buy from me.
Mike, have you done any comparison reviews of the tiki torch-style speakers??
Can we connect Flex Gen 1 with Flex Gen 2 ? I have Flex Gen 1.
You look like Matpat and Graham Stephen combined into one person
I wanted to see the chargeports on all the speakers not just the soundcore.
Missed opportunity to make it a digital photo frame (I was kind of baffled it was not)
Sonos Roam 2 you forgot
I have the marshall middleton and bose soundlink flex very good sound from both
Another bad review where this guy talks through the whole video instead of playing the actual speaker
Sound core rave party 2
I hated the Boom 2 when I first copped it. After 2 weeks I decided to fiddle with the eq. After an hour of fiddling (which was kinda tedious because I have mad adhd lol) I’ve come to see the light with the Boom 2. This speaker sounds dope. It’s my go to speaker when I want volume outdoors. It’s not a chore to carry around because it’s light and compact. Its get super loud for its size, and the bass is impressive. I was able to get the Boom 2 for $99 but even if you’d paid retail (which you shouldn’t) it’s still a great value. My only small quibble with the speaker is it didn’t come with a shoulder strap
Btw, I also co-sign on the Bose Soundlink Flex
Cheers
@mike what would you purchase that has the same qualities as the Bose SLink Flex II but includes a MIC 🎤 pickup, say – to use during video calls at work?
Marshall middleton. Has the best clear surround sound👍
Shame with the beats are they’ve been proven to add weights to make it feel more expensive and well built than it is.
Very nice speakers, i jumped the gun and got myself a Sonus speaker but I’m deffo not disappointed, best sounding speaker I’ve ever heard
Bears has distortion after 50%
Anker soundcore motion plus, what’s better in that size?😢
Mike O’ Brien, can you do a review on the Sony ULT Field 1, or at least tell me your opinion on the speaker? I deciding between the beats pill and the Sony ULT Field 1, but i think I’m leaning more to the Sony just because of the extra bass. Thanks a lot, I love your videos.
Big miss in the W-King Kind X20. Just as good as the JBL boombox at half the price. Should have been near the top of your list.
Ive had a ny=umber of speakers but the one im with right now is the JBL Clip 5. I love this little guy. It’s relatively inexpensive but it does not sound like it. and if it is as tough as my old Flip 4 then I expect it is basically indestructible. And the clip/carabiner on it is fantastic. I know, it’s just a clip but I love to clip it on my belt loop or shower head or on my backpack and I have never had another speaker that could do that. If youre on the edge, I recommend giving the Clip 5 a try.
Beats Pill is just an expensive Soundcore Motion +?
