Xiaomi Sound Pocket is a bit amazing (for my scooter 🛴) Bose SoundLink Flex 2 also, for a small house 🏠 I'm happy with both, excellent sound 🙀🤗👍
Xiaomi "Sound Pocket"... around 2000 rupees on Temu... very good sound... clear but with bass... for the tiny size
Very happy with the UE Boom 2 for 10 years but replaced by the Bose SoundLink Flex 2 which delivers very pleasant sound (if you lower the bass a notch with the 3-band equalizer) and a small Xiaomi Sound Pocket 5w for less than €20, very satisfactory for my electric scooter 🛴
Even my little Xiaomi SoundPocket IP67 5w is cracking... Excellent clear and balanced sound in the mids/treble... Very decent bass for its size/weight/price... It's my smallest bluetooth speaker... Received around 15€ on Ali... Installed on my 🛴💨💯💥 to listen to US Rap... Great battery life... I'm crazy about it https://www.skroutz.gr/s/53059323/Xiaomi-Pocket-Adiavrocho-Icheio-Bluetooth-5W-me-Diarkeia-Mpatarias-eos-10-ores-Mayro.html
Yet another small budget speaker added to my collection, my first speaker from this brand 👍this little guys design always intrigued me, mainly because of the exposed passive radiator , I’ve never seen a speaker this small have an exposed radiator, pretty neat 👌 Besides that, I’m pleasantly surprised by this speaker! I only paid about 25 dollars for this, and at that price this speaker is great. I compared it to my JBL Go 4 and was surprised to hear how close it comes. They sounded almost indistinguishable at first, but as I listened closer I did notice a few differences. The Go 4 has a bit more detail than the Sound Pocket, but I feel like it doesn’t get as loud. The Go 4 is a 4.2 watt speaker while the Sound Pocket is 5 watts, but it’s such a small difference in volume and barely noticeable. However the Sound Pocket distorts very slightly at full volume while the Go 4 maintains a bit cleaner sound, but again, it’s a small difference. Although in terms of bass, I like the bass response on the Sound Pocket better. It’s surprisingly punchy and trebles are clear. In a way the sound reminds me of my Select 4 Go. And the battery life is pretty good too, about the same as my Go 4. As to be expected for a speaker this size. All in all this little speaker is a great value, sounds great for its price and has a pretty unique design 🙏
I have both and when comparing them they sound very close. In terms of overall detail in the music they sound pretty much the same, and bass sounds around the same too. Although the soundcore does have a slightly warmer sound to it, and the sound pocket has a brighter sound and hits higher in the trebles, which makes it sound a bit louder. Overall though they’re very similar in terms of sound quality and price. But the soundcore does have a longer battery life, 20 hours instead of 10 hours on the sound pocket. In my opinion both are great values
Get 2 Xiaomi sound pockets for less than the price of one of these.Great little speakers I managed to get 2 for about £30 off temu and for me it's a no brainer. The reviews aren't quite as good but it's one vs one with these you're obviously getting a stereo pair so something to think about maybe?
I have two to form a stereo pair, and I think they're great value for money.
Bought it. I like it ! The only thing that annoys me is the turn on and off sound. It is extremely loud. Have you figure out if there is any way to turn off the sound or decrease it ?
I must warn you, my mi sound pocket started stuttering after 11 months of use in the kitchen It's not a software issue but after looking it up on YouTube and seeing a reddit post, I believe that xiaomi has some issues with their build quality
I have 3×nokia MD-51W 1 Sony SRS-XB13 1 jbl harman kardon charge 5 And on the past I had the bose soundlink mini but sold it due to the fact it doesn't charge from battery pack while out and about. I like the xiaomi pocket. It's small and gives a punch.
I bought a Xiaomi ASM02a and I loved it so much that I bought another one for stereo sound, they were 68€ each on Amazon. Very pleasant sound even at low volumes.
