Bluetooth speakers are wireless and convenient compared to traditional speakers, with no cable connection needed to listen to music with stunning acoustic effects. As for inputs, there’s a micro USB and aux-in at one end, covered by a little rubber plug to keep them waterproof. Coverage: 6 microphones arranged in a 360° array pick up voices from all directions to instantly transform any space at home or the office into a meeting room.

There’s no internet requirement for Bluetooth connection, all your devices need is built-in Bluetooth. If updating does not work, then it might be possible that your Bluetooth device is no longer compatible with your old operating system.I wanted to reset the Anker speaker because it is not responding and not evening pairing with my smartphone. Sound quality of the Anker SoundCore 2 is average, though miles better than playing music from your smartphone speaker. Note that some older smart TVs may not have Bluetooth connectivity, in which case you may need to use a wired connection or a separate Bluetooth adapter to connect your Anker Soundcore speaker.

Voice commands can be given to your smart playback device in the usual manner once you've established a Bluetooth connection, and I was able to select tracks and stream playback through third-party music apps like Spotify using Siri voice commands via my iPhone 12 Pro. Bass output is less impressive with classical music, and although I was initially impressed by the warmth and depth on display during the opening to Hans Zimmer's "Time" from the movie Inception, the louder the orchestra got the more the Soundcore struggled to produce the soundtrack without sounding confused and muddled.

This saves the trouble of carrying tangled cables all the time, such as the charging and connection cable.
