Motion X600 Portable Bluetooth Speaker, Hi-Res Spatial Audio with Wireless 50W Sound, IPX7 Waterproof, Pro EQ, AUX-in, Portable Speaker for Home, Office, Backyard and Bathroom Use

I needed these speakers to compensate for the classic conundrum clash, consumers have little choice to choose between the splendidly superb & spectacular 10-bit color as well as the crystal clear clarity (e.g.) the 32" class Samsung Q60A panel versus its anorexic sound due to contemporary esthetics in addition to the unprecedentedly bizarre clause in our apartment that bars bringing in items unless brought by the owner! which precludes me from having to pass up more appropriate $300-$400 soundbars! Nevertheless, I hope I solved the sound issue scourging modern tellies! Out Of Box Experience Upon delivery via one of my siblings On Wednesday 27th December 2023, I was impressed with the brawniness of the boxes as well as the Rubix cube-style, Matryoshka doll challenge exclusively to open it up which began with an outside sleeve which introduced its newly minted owner to the speaker's attributes in polyglot languages; then came the sleeve separating the two levels of cellophane wrap as well as the foam which looks to be a half-inch thick holding the 2.3' USB-C to C cable designed to be used with a wall charger, a Safety & 10 page Quick Start pamphlets, @ the top there's a UPC, the International Environmental & Radio regulationatory agencies this device has to conform to before being approved for sale on the global markets. Finally, at the bottom, a serial number UPC! Construction This Motion X600 consists of a three-part fabrication; a handle & grill forged from aluminum on the front with a color-coordinated plastic posterior available in "Polar Black", "Lunar Blue" and "Aurora Green" upon visual inspection is difficult to discern where the aluminum metal ends & the plastic begins! Meanwhile, the handle has respectively, "Spatial Harmony" & "High Fidelity Audio" in block font along the bottom left & right ends of the handle as well as "Soundcore" in stylized lettering on the top right. The ridges that aid grip-ability are located in the bottom middle part while the perimeter periphery is smooth. Staying in the back has a unique rubber stop flap which guarantees the X600 its Ingress Protection Level 7 status that enables the speaker can handle H2O from misting & condensation up to an accidential dunk up to a meter for 30 minutes. the rear also conceals a passive radiator, linked to the Midrange "Sky Driver" but helps the system sound better via Digital Sound Processing, a USB-C port as well as a 1/8" auxiliary jack. Driver Configuration The Anker Soundcore Motion X600 Speaker System is a 3-way, quintuple driver powered by 5 amplifiers producing 10-watt RMS for a total of 50 watts RMS configured as twin 2.06" woofers, duo 1.06" tweeters & a unique 1.92" passive radiator augmented midrange "Sky Driver" Spatial Driver is controlled by a 12 core Intel i7 12700K processor clocked from 3.6-5.0 GHz, ohm: N/A, Frequency Response: 48-40,000Hz+- 2.84dB, Horizontal Dispersion, 5.49dB, Signal to Noise Ratio: 72dB, Total Harmonic Distortion: <1%, Sensitivity, 92.1dB, Crossover: 54Hz, 2,500 Hz & 19,100Hz, Battery, SW-34MP2S2P; 6400mAh Dimensions: 6.25" High x 11.75" Wide x 3.88" deep, Weight: 5.17lbs. I charged my first Motion X600 with a 45watt Samsung wall charger connected to a 100watt Anker cable taking 4.5 hours to charge while the 2nd X600 was charged using an Anker 30watt wall charger with a second 100watt cable connected to two of the 8 electrical outlets which was done in 5 hours. When both speakers completed their compulsory charging session, on Thursday, December 28th, 2023, most of the scribes advised switching on both the Spatial Audio & Bass Buttons to mitigate its mettle as well as promote the prowess of the Motion X600 otherwise owners would likely feel the engineering savants were snookering them impacting future sales. Eargasmic Ecstasy! That began when I decided to play my 450-song Latino 🎄Carols playlist on YouTube Music designed to tide me over a 13-hour journey from Gastonia, North Carolina to Philadelphia! Once I activated, the 15-segment equalizer, the Spatial & Bass buttons It was 😱WOW!!!, WOW SQUARED!!!!!!, WOW CUBED!!!!!!!!!! 😲 It was as if I heard the music for the first time! for it sent chills through my body to not just the 🦴s but the bone marrow! Which is exactly how good the X600s are! Sibling #6 was as duly impressed with the speakers as he was with my Q60A panel when was deployed 21 months ago! for he considers them Home Theater caliber! This was confirmed on Three Kings Day/Epiphany; January 6, 2024, when after still trying to use the Soundcore app to no avail, it was not only severing The True Wireless Stereo bond but replaced the X600 pairing with the generic LG driver on the TV which necessitated a speaker reset so in despair, I watched "Terminator; Judgment Day" & realized how good the X600 sounded as normal solitary speakers when I could readily discern where the various soundtrack aspects occurred via the individual speaker drivers! Once I reset the speaker it started at maximum volume which almost got us reported by the next-door neighbors for bringing the noise! After a successful reset, and recharge (for 7 & 8 hours) which for an idiosyncratic orientation, included playing the YouTube playlist, I watched & thoroughly enjoyed the lush, vigorously robust soundtrack of "Wonder Woman 1984" & Quite honestly, What I heard through my 👂holes brought me back to when I had my last CRT, The NEC 2030S & my first LCD panel, the Samsung LN-T1954 when TVs had enough space to include decent stereo sound to match their displays! The Soundcore App It's an authentic atrocity that this program is oriented toward audio music when the Motion X600 itself can adapt itself to Audio/Video Home Theater & worse yet when I called Anker Innovations Tech Support on January 2nd, they confirmed its bias toward record collections because every time I endeavor to utilize its features, it shut down the TRUE WIRELESS STEREO facet which is the reason why I strived to save the >$200 more to score the second speaker! which rendered the other speaker as mute as a mime, furthermore, the app caused more agita by making it more problematic to pair with my Samsung Q60A panel! I sincerely wish and desire that this Cucaracha is finally fumigated from future updates ASAP! STAT! In addition from December 28th, 2023, when I first tried to establish a legitimate Soundcore Account it wouldn't recognize it even though I followed the procedure precisely to the letter! Conclusion I'm happy that the operation of these Anker Soundcore Motion X600 speaker systems isn't dependent upon this program because they sound incredibly amazing, augmented by its uniquely innovative design & technologies both external & internal, its configuration and price. And the President Grant-sized discount on top makes it even more of a steal of a deal! Addendum: Monday 12 February, 2024 One of my pet peeves with my pair is that I had to sync it with the YouTube Music account before working successfully with my panel; for the past month after subsequent charging sessions, that weirdness has vanished. Both speakers hook up normally, provided that the owner/operator powers them in the proper sequence Also, I acquired the 45-watt Anker 313 wall charger for the 2nd speaker to have them fully charged & ready at the same time enhancing my satisfaction with these speakers.

I had bought Anker ear buds last year which were excellent for the money so when I was looking and saw this speaker with a $50 coupon and high ratings, I pulled the trigger and ordered it without much thought. Being a musician who usually takes about 3+ months of research to buy any piece of audio equipment, this was a big step for me LOL. All I can say is that this speaker has been great so far. It's a very cool, clean, modern looking speaker. The construction feels solid and durable and having the handle to carry it around from place to place is more of a plus than I thought it would be. The sound quality is excellent, bass is very good at low to medium volumes but gets lost a bit when you really turn it up (or that could just be my aging ears), and it is loud! I didn't notice any significant distortion at high volumes and the overall clarity and presence of the individual instruments was very good. I tested a variety of musical genres (jazz, rock, pop, punk, ska, hip hop, rap, classical) and all sounded good to great. The Anker app is great and gives you more flexibility with the EQ settings as well as showing the battery level of the speaker. The voice prompt when you power on/off isn't obnoxious like some other speakers I've heard, it's just a tone but you can also turn it on and off in the Anker app. Since I already had the app for my earbuds, I just needed to add the speaker to my devices in the app (click of a button) and I was good to go. The battery life seems solid. It does take a while to charge fully (about 6 hours) but from what I read you can charge while using it in a pinch, but you shouldn't do that all the time or it can cause damage to the battery. I tend to listen at a fairly loud volume most of the time and after listening to music for about 4 hours using the BassUp and Spatial features on, the battery level is still showing as about 60%-65% so I'd expect to get about another 6-8 hours before I have to recharge. In short, I am very happy with the speaker and would definitely recommend it. I am definitely considering getting a second to have stereo pairing.

I own MANY bluetooth speakers. Bose, Harman Kardon, Alexa Echo, other SoundCore and Apple to name just a few. This is the best sounding speaker at this price point! Great full sound and lots of bass. Very high quality material. Also it looks as good as it sounds. Even at half power, it louder and (and sounds better) than the other speakers I have at full power. It really fills the room with a huge sound stage giving you rich full sound. The spatial audio feature on Apple Music sounds amazing, you will hear instruments in a song you maybe have heard a hundred times for the first time in Spatial Audio. The built in handle makes it very easy to carry around with you and it is still small enough to toss in your weekend bag or your beach bag to take the music with you on the go. I just wish the handle was foldable to make even more compact in your bag. Pros: Lots of bang for your buck Built in spatial audio Bass boost Amazing sound stage Customizable EQ Great looking design Cons: Non foldable handle Battery is 12 hour battery but can take up to 6 hours to recharge a tad on the heavy side compared to other same sized speakers The cons are not big and I do not think they would be enough to keep anyone from buying one

Es difícil que un dispositivo de música, ya sea auriculares, altavoces o equipos de sonido tipo DAC me sorprenda a día de hoy. Llevo décadas escuchando música y he sido usuario de dispositivos en todos los rangos de precio del mercado. Soy de esos audiófilos que busca una experiencia inmersiva, definida y con una firma de sonido tirando a neutral, donde todo sea medianamente apreciable. No me gusta la exageración en los bajos de la música moderna ni el sonido que la mayoría de altavoces integran hoy en día. Cuando oí hablar del diseño y la idea detrás de este Soundcore X600 me sentí intrigado, aunque no esperaba nada especial porque ya me he llevado muchas decepciones o sensaciones de indiferencia a lo largo de los años. Buscaba un altavoz para uso en interiores que lograra llenar el espacio, con musicalidad, equilibrio, y que me permitiese disfrutar de todos los matices de la música que más escucho (metal, jazz, clásica, rock y algo de electrónica principalmente). El Soundcore X600 prometía un sonido espacial inédito hasta la fecha mediante el uso de dos botones especiales llamados 'Sonido Espacial' y 'Bajos Profundos'. Hasta que ha llegado este Soundcore X600, todos los altavoces que había probado en rangos de precio medios o bajos me daban la sensación de congestión o de intromisión de los bajos en las frecuencias medias, por lo que nunca pude disfrutar de estos géneros de verdad sin auriculares. El Soundcore X600, sin el 'Sonido Espacial' ni los 'Bajos profundos' activados, es un altavoz más del montón tirando a flojo (considerando su precio). Cuando lo probé sin sus dos extras estrella me dejó una sensación más bien pobre y sosa. Sin embargo, fue presionar los dos botones y me quedé mudo. Nunca un altavoz había conseguido una separación y espacialidad como esta. La integración del altavoz en la parte superior y el reparto de frecuencias está tan bien conseguido que no exagero cuando digo que en una habitación de tamaño medio-pequeño el Soundcore X600 te hace sentir la música en un directo íntimo pero amplio. La diferencia cuando aprietas el botón de 'Sonido Espacial' es abismal. Sin este botón este altavoz es un 5/10, cuando lo activas es un 10/10. Una auténtica pasada. Hay que experimentarlo para entenderlo. Con el botón de "Bajos Profundos" la música gana todavía más feeling y empuje, aunque a veces puede resultar necesario el uso de EQ para que los bajos no se coman demasiado el resto de frecuencias. En líneas generales la implementación de esta idea es sublime, en Soundcore pueden estar orgullosos. Cuanta además con una aplicación muy fácil de utilizar en Android con la que podremos actualizar el firmware del altavoz y utilizar diferentes EQs que podemos customizar o descargar de internet. También cuenta con la tecnología LDAC, por lo que el sonido transmitido por Bluetooth suena espectacularmente bien. Emparejado con dispositivos Sony como el WM1A se alcanza un sonido difícil de superar en dispositivos con este tamaño. Para un uso más allá de la música el altavoz pierde un poco desde mi punto de vista, aunque tirando de EQ creo que se pueden conseguir parámetros decentes. Por ejemplo, en películas el altavoz resuelve la espacialidad del sonido de una manera rara, que no me convence, generando un sonido un tanto desequilibrado, provocando un desfase entre los sonidos lejanos y los cercanos que a mí personalmente no me gusta. Cuando se activa el botón de 'Bajos Profundos' para darle algo más de chicha los bajos desfasan el sonido y se pierde claridad y transparencia, siendo bastante difícil encontrar el equilibrio con un EQ. No es imposible, pero los resultados no están a la altura de los que se consiguen con la música ni mucho menos. RESUMEN + Espectacular sonido espacial, nítido y potente en un altavoz portátil + Portabilidad bastante decente, con un diseño muy bonito + Batería bastante decente con entre 8 y 10 horas de música con los botones 'SE' y 'BP' activados + Tecnología LDAC, idónea para música de calidad con Bluetooth. - Sin los botones 'SE' y 'BP' activados el altavoz es muy normalito, aunque la batería dura más. - En exteriores se pierde parte de su magia, aunque sigue siendo muy decente. - El efecto en películas o videojuegos no se implementa tan bien como con la música.

Simply love it!

I have this speaker for over a year now. It's my daily driver for when I work and when I go on a trip I take it with me. It's simply sublime with the extra speaker and bass boost. It simply sounds like a speaker 5 times the size with clear sound.

Comincio subito col parlare del suo peggior difetto: l'ascolto con i controlli "extra bass" e "audio spaziale" disattivati, comporta un suono riprodotto del tutto deludente, in quanto spento, noioso, insignificante. Ciò, al contrario della maggior parte degli apparecchi concorrenti, che sono già in grado di riprodurre da subito, una qualità audio al 90 per cento delle loro capacità senza dover agire su specifiche regolazioni. Quindi, prima cosa da fare: attivare entrambi i due controlli, anche se a mio giudizio, l'"audio spaziale" si può lasciare disattivo, con risultati obbiettivamente migliori. Successivamente, occorre perdere parecchio tempo con l'equalizzatore, questo sì ben progettato, che permette di agire su ben nove frequenze. Alla fine, quello che si ottiene è una qualità audio notevole, se si considera anche il prezzo a cui viene spesso proposto, ben al di sotto dei 200 Euro di listino. Adesso passo ad elencare gli ulteriori pregi e difetti. Pregi: - costruzione estremamente robusta, struttura quasi interamente metallica, con materiali di pregio ed ottime rifiniture. Per dare un'idea della sua robustezza basti sapere che mi è caduto sul pavimento, da un altezza di 80 cm e l'ho raccolto pensando che si fosse rotta la maniglia o ammaccato da qualche parte e invece niente! Neppure un graffio. - App veramente ben fatta, con utilissimo equalizzatore. Diverse regolazioni predefinite di fabbrica e possibilità di poterne creare nuove. - Presenza del Codec bluetooth LDAC, che consente la trasmissione di contenuti audio ad alta risoluzione (Hi-Res). - Volume di riproduzione notevole, anche se i 50 Watt di targa mi sembrano abbastanza ottimistici. - Ben 5 altoparlanti, di cui quattro in configurazione stereo, due per i medio bassi e due per gli acuti e uno specifico per l'effetto 3D , cosa non comune tra i concorrenti, anche se la loro reciproca vicinanza non permette un effetto stereo apprezzabile, ma ne guadagna sicuramente l'ampiezza della scena sonora. - Suoni bassi abbastanza sostenuti e alte ben estese. Per cui l'ascolto è abbastanza appagante (sempre dopo aver effettuato le indispensabili regolazioni). - La maniglia ne permette una facile trasportabilità, nonostante il peso. - Presenza di un ingresso aux. - Possibilità di usare un qualsiasi caricabatterie USB-C per la sua ricarica. _ Autonomia della ricarica, intorno alle 10 ore. Dipende anche dal volume di ascolto e dal Codec utilizzato, nel senso che l'LDAC abbrevia le ore. - Impermeabilità IPX7, quindi lo si può tranquillamente esporre (eventualmente) anche alla pioggia. Difetti: - non un vero e proprio difetto, ma l'audio spaziale a mio giudizio è poco "spaziale". Per averne una sufficiente percezione, bisogna ascoltare a non più di un metro di distanza e soprattutto, peggiora la qualità delle frequenze medio alte, accentuando le sibilanti sulle voci, soprattutto le femminili. Io lo lascio sempre disattivato. - Altro difetto: l'ho già detto prima, dover intervenire sull'equalizzatore o sulle preimpostazioni, per avere una riproduzione soddisfacente. E qui mi fermo, perché non riesco ad individuare altri difetti. In definitiva penso che questo apparecchio abbia ben pochi concorrenti, soprattutto considerandone il rapporto qualità/prezzo.

Maybe it's just me but I think there is too much hype over this x600. Oh it sounds amazing for it's size and the app is one of the best I've worked with. Build quality is superb. With spatial audio off it's just another boombox and an overpriced one at that. I've heard better for less Tribit makes excellent products. Spatial makes it beats all others. Not a gimmick...it actually creates a room filling hifi sound. Play hi res audio thru it and it's mind blowing. This can get real loud and I mean loud. Better than the Bose i've owned in all regards. The app allows custom audio settings so even the most fussiest people will find the sound they like. Instant bluetooth connect. Seriously this is a game changer in small BT speakers. The bass boost can be a little too much on certain music so I found myself keeping it off in the house in smaller rooms. Outside probably fine. The retail packaging alone is premium. You'd think it was a $1000 the way they packed it. Anker is good in that way. Make sure you charge to 100% before using it when it arrives. It took 3hrs for mine so it must come with a 50% charge. That is the one negative. Slow charge only. 5v 3amps is a joke. Fast charge is the new norm. I doubt 12hrs runtime is accurate unless you just leave it on with nothing connected to it. After a few hrs I decided to charge it and it took around 2hrs and I wasn't driving it hard. Of course there is no way of knowing the exact % of battery drain which is another negative. Even the app doesn't offer that info. Would have been nice to have a 100% to 0% gauge. Maybe next model will offer more features and better battery life. Slow charging is still ok planning use around that. I bought a padded case for it off of amazon. Got a refund and kept it because it was nothing like the ad stated. It's ok for storing it in to avoid dust etc but as far as other protection it offered minimal. Thin and cheap. So be careful which one you order. $29 is a joke dollarstore quality so was going to return it but told keep it and refunded. It's worth free. LOL Maybe there will be far better hardshell ones available or buy a case with removable foam inserts to custom fit it. Its worth protecting. 2 of these paired together would be amazing if you want mind blowing stereo. I might even invest in another if they go on sale again. It comes down do I recommend it. Oh yeah...no questions...it's that good. Don't expect too much from it and its great. They can only get so much from such a small speaker but it is stunning what Anker has done.
