I love this new Soundcore Flare Mini, but first…this is not my first Soundcore (Anker) speaker…I’ve had a Soundcore since about 2015 or earlier. Then I bought my wife one, my Dad one and my wife’s aunt one. These little Bluetooth speakers are awesome sounding, have excellent battery life and are super easy to use. But back to the Flare…it sounds and looks awesome (my kids love the lights, so do I). I use it on our gazebo so I really like the 360* sound. I need to order a case for it but other than that I’m a happy camper. Can’t wait to take it to the beach this year.
