Anker Soundcore Flare Portable Bluetooth 360° Speaker

Anker Soundcore Flare bluetooth speaker comes in the usual Anker's blue and white paper packaging but with a really nice image detailing whats inside, with the speaker itself dropped in water motion.

Opening the packaging, there is a nicely wrapped Soundcore Flare in it along with cable for charing and a manual. I really like the cylinder shape it gives a nice round sound to any direction while its still easy to hold with one hand. There are control buttons on top, compared to my older Soundcore speakers this has a light control button and a bass up button. What sets the Flare aside from others is the bottom bit, it has a ring of lights built in. on the backside of the speaker, there are two indicators for bluetooth connection and power, below them, there is a micro usb charging port and an AUX in port.

After turning it on and paired with my phone, I can instantly play music through it, the sound is great! and the bass is unbelievable for a speaker this size, especially after pressed the bass-up button! The treble is good too, very clear to hear voices and lyrics. I use this to pair with my Amazon Echo Dot, it is a good expansion for it, as the Dot's builtin speaker is really small and weak. I could easily ask the Dot to play any music and this thing illuminates up! The base ring is great it beats with the rhythm.

There is another nice surprise: App support. For both iOS and Android devices you can download the Soundcore app, after bluetooth connection, it is possible to change the light pattern, update firmware and etc, this is the first Soundcore speaker supports this, I really do hope to see more speaker supported, or even the older versions supported :)

I gave this speaker 5 out of 5 stars! I would recommend to any one needs a indoor/outdoor speaker, or a companion to Amazon Echo Dot. You can easily get it from Amazon here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07BHP4W36

Anker Waterproof Case, IPX8-Rated Dry Bag

With summer is coming fast, literally just around the corner, most people would go to somewhere beside water - swimming pool, seaside or riverside. While most people would enjoy the water related activities, there is one thing always kept people worried: their mobile phone, as most phones are not water proof and can be easily damaged by water. That is where the Anker Dry Bag comes in! Anker included two dry bags in the package with straps on them. that is really nice as most people going out with their loved ones. The case is IPX8 waterproof, which means it can go as deep as 100 feet, that is around 33 meters! It fits and phones up to 6 inches, that is like 99% of phones. To use the bag it couldn't be simpler: just open the two switch on each side of the bag and then place the phone inside, and close the switch, thats it the bag is water sealed. the bag is completely transparent, when the phone is inside you can use it to take photos or do other things you usually do on your ph...

Anker PowerPort Wireless 5 Pad, Ultra-Slim Wireless Charger

With the iPhone X and iPhone 8 coming out, wireless charging has become more and more popular, there are so many options and with the wireless charger from Anker I have great confidence and also it won't hurt my wallet. Opening the traditional Anker's white and blue package you can find the round disk charger as well as a micro USB cable included. To get started it couldn't be more easier, just plug the USB end to a wall charger or a computer's USB port and the other end to the round disc wireless charger, thats it! I have not yet purchased an iPhone X yet but I have a wireless charging adaptor which I use for my Kindle Paperwhite, I found with the wireless charger it is really convenient I usually read at night before going to sleep, and after I have done my reading I put the kindle on the charger and thats it, no need to worry it will run out of battery and no need to connect the charger in the dark. There is a small light on the disk to show its operational when ...

Anker PowerCore Speed 20000 PD

Anker has just released another new power bank called: PowerCore 20000 PD, from the name you would know it has over 20000mah and the PD is the interesting bit - power delivery. Opening the traditional Anker's white and blue package you can find the PowerCore itself and also a travel pouch, USB-C to USB-C cable and USB-A to Micro USB cable. It is long but not too big to fit in a winter coat, or my backpack, with this size but it has 21000mah capacity which is amazing!  I use it with my Macbook Pro 2016 touchbar version, interestingly it can charge the Macbook Pro. Also it has a normal USB port which can let me charge my phone and watch using my own cables.  I only have one suggestion, as this is the UK version, unlike the US version which has a wall adaptor, I would think a USB-A to USB-C cable would be nice to include in the package too, for people who doesn't have a USB C wall charger. I give this product 5 out of 5 ! I would recommend to anyone needs a power bank with...
