I got the x600 and i'm very please with the sound quality, however it DOES need the "spatial" function ON to have a nice sound otherwise the music tends to be very flat.
Spacial audio does not give you anything extra. It blends the two front speakers with the top speaker using the stereo input, then phase shift in certain frequencies (likely 2khz) is added. This unit uses an analog devices dsp chipset. All that info is on their wiki.
What’s your thoughts on the x500 vs the x600 you reviewed 5 months ago, I bought the x600 and like it but like the portable of the x500 better, is there a big difference in sound between the two, I know the x600 has more drivers, just thought about getting the x500 instead, I guess trying to decide if the x500 sounds as good. Thanks
The echo studio actually has the proprietary official version of spatial audio from Dolby. It's not even possible to do that over Bluetooth it has to be done over Wi-Fi so whatever sound core is claiming here they're using a very liberal definition of spatial audio. It's basically just an upward firing speaker. Ecco studio is a much bigger and better speaker although obviously not portable.
20 Hz on lower frequency in that size ? that's a good joke , i was a user of motion x600 and i can confirm that the bass is distorting after 35% of volume witch is disappointing ,the sound stage is detailed but not warm sound . For those who's own 2 motion pluses not worth the change to one of these speakers . I personally owned 2 motinon pluses and i can confirm that was way better than one motion x600.
@@nrianvega9086the X600 has one and the X500 is pretty much half of the X600... just get the X600 because you're getting a lot more for not that much more money
"painfully honest"? I don't think anyone wants the truth. They can't handle the truth. They want you to lie to them, to tell them it is good, reassure them, so they click and spend money, and they come back and lie to everyone to justify their own purchases. There are some sites that actually do tests and prove things and no one wants to be bothered. They want the nice music, the effects, the charisma, the nice lighting and fancy editing. The baritone tones.
X500 for travel and X600 for the BBQ or me cooking Jerk Chicken on the grill. Both are HomePod & HomePod mini on the go!!!!!!! I need to acquire both of them in my life.
Man, if you got paid for doing a review by Soundcore, the least you could do is get your facts right!..... lol IPX7 means can be submerged in up to 1 meter of water for up to 30 minutes
Their *X300* is smaller and is quite a banger. No spacial audio feature, but it has serious sound IMO. I have one and am saving to get another so I can have them in stereo (pairing 2 together is a feature).
If this early bird is like the one for the 300, anyone outside the US can’t use it, even if they buy it, so would need to ask for a refund of the dollar … or just chalk it up to experience. The 300 comes out in the UK on November 1st - thankfully, they gave us an early bird too. Thanks for the video!
@@thejasontlewis the whole marketing paid nonsense, dont act innocent, you kbnow you simply went through the script guide they sent you. AlanRoss aklready outted you.
Outed me as doing what? I took the thing out of the box, ran through the specs and features, listened to it and told you what I thought. This is tiresome.
I was looking at the news articles and announcements on ankers website and those pictures need a better reference frame. I almost bought this based on the pictures thinking it looked similar in size to a jbl clip 4.... I wanted to hang it on my belt at work... That is NOT gonna happen lol.

Agreed. It is always my default.

Soundcore has seriously been bossing up with their tech lately. It just keeps getting better and better.

I think when they do paid advertisements they're not allowed to do direct comparisons
Huge sense of directionality lol, still at the nonsense soundcore videos i see. I guess when you label as paid promotion anything goes.
Is this light
It pretty light, yes.
Thank you such a prompt reply
Can you link the x600 and x500 together in tws or party mode?😮
I thought you'd compare the 600 to the 500, is the 5 just a smaller version. And Is the spatial audio better than the Amazon Echo studio?
Echo studio is a completely different animal go for the that over this

The Tribit Stormbox Blast is a way better speaker ! The soundcore is nice, but the Tribit a better value !

im just wondering how many people are disappointed with speakers not having a aux port ?
bluetooh spéaker dont care :v
The x600 has one I believe
Nobody really cares about a tethered connection ESPECIALLY with Bluetooth speakers

I don’t really care tbh
Have you tested it with something other than an iPhone? Something that supports LDAC and can reach the bitrate that you mentioned

Does it have BASS up feature ?
It's a shame about the aesthetic of the X600 and X500. I don't like the way they look at all.
I hope the x600 also has an rgb light on the spartial speaker like the x500
It doesn't
@@pixelreflectorpro Who can be a bass player on the x500 and x600?

you should try being honest in your paid reviews
What wasn't honest?

You should do a video side by side sound.
Did he say mostly speakers are rated between 20 Hz and 40 kHz?
This is incredible.
It won't play down to 20hz
Wish it had radio
You could use internet radio on your phone but, yeah, not usable on its own if that's what you were after.
I own and prefer the X600 because of the 5 speakers and wider placement of them. The X500 looks like a handbag to me... 😅
I hate that logo on the front grille
