Well.... i got this speaker on July, 2025. Its been a year and a few days now. I only used it here and there, I took care of it, never got wet. Now, the sound is great but im very disappointed. Its not holding charge anymore. I had it plugged in for hours. Now that i turned it on it says its got 20% of battery life left. I think for $300 you can look for something similar, like a jbl. Im sure those will last longer or the batteries are replaceable.

Best party speaker
Look I rarely write reviews and you see a lot of generic reviews but like bro tweak the EQ and put the bass and it’s fire I’ve been always so impressed by soundcore in general because they make such good quality items also took it to the beach and was water resistant as well and the battery was at 60% after 3-4 hours of use at 50 volume with bass up. Buy this you’ll like it

Well worth the money and excellent sound!!
I am so impressed with the sound quality of this speaker. I have bought JBL and UE speakers for listening to music by the pool when friends are over and for singing karaoke in the mancave I have to use my Fender speaker w/ a wired mic......... not anymore!! This thing has professional DJ sound, the bass blew me away and the mics stay connected even when I walk around several corners in my house. I bought it for the feature of taking the words out of songs on those karaoke nights and it works perfect. Soundcore, you nailed it.

Best Party Speaker for Music & Karaoke Nights!
The Soundcore Rave Party Speaker truly exceeded my expectations. From the moment I turned it on, I was blown away by the superior sound quality. The bass is deep and punchy, and the audio clarity is excellent even at higher volumes. Whether it’s pop, rock, or acoustic tracks, every genre sounds full and immersive.
One of the standout features is the AI karaoke technology. It works seamlessly and really enhances the karaoke experience. The speaker comes with two high-quality microphones, which makes duets and group singing so much fun. The microphones themselves deliver clear, crisp vocals, and they also include the karaoke feature to easily switch between regular audio and karaoke mode. This simple transition makes the whole experience smooth and enjoyable.
In terms of portability, the speaker is very convenient to move around. Despite its powerful sound output, it’s designed in a way that makes transporting it simple perfect for both indoor and outdoor use.
The battery life is impressive as well. A single charge lasts much longer than I anticipated, which means you can rely on it for an entire evening of music and fun without worrying about plugging it in.
Overall, the Soundcore Rave Party Speaker is a fantastic investment if you’re looking for a high-quality, versatile speaker. It combines exceptional audio performance, user-friendly karaoke features with dual microphones, portability, and long-lasting battery life into one device. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to elevate their parties, family gatherings, or even casual music sessions at home.

Súper excelente bocina
Si pudiera darle 10 estrellas o más lo haría. Calidad de sonido excelente. La conexión a bluetooth estable. La batería dura bastante. Viene con dos micrófonos que utilizan baterías. La bocina se carga mediante entrada C viene con su cable incluido. Puedes descargar la aplicación en tu móvil y controlar el volumen y las luces de los colores que más ocupes. Tiene la opción de que si tienes más bocinas de la misma marca las puedes enlazar todas. Me encanta es primera vez que tengo algo de esta marca y me encantó. Muy buena calidad los bajos suenan súper bien. Al darle todo el volumen suenan súper fuerte. Lo recomiendo mucho. Esta marca es súper buena después de tres meses de uso. Ninguna queja. Nada

Great speaker with bass!
As a preface, I have the JBL 310 speaker for my kids sports walk up and backyard pool and parties. That said this Soundcore speaker packs a punch and goes almost as hard! The addition of the "spatial audio when you turn the speaker on its side is a noticeable difference, and to me sounds better. As far as backyard in a neighborhood, it is easily loud enough to make the neighbors wanna come over and check out what's happening.
The speaker only weigh 20ish pounds so no need for wheels and it is easy to maneuver. The cabinet seems to be built to handle being moved around, and it is really nice that the microphones have a holder on the back of the cabinet so they won't get lost. I also stored the charging cord in the pull down panel cover where the charging port and other connectors are.
The Sundocre app is really easy to use and helps when connected to the speaker via Bluetooth. Connecting is as easy as any other BT device. Hit the pair button and find it on your device. Once connected there is an EQ, light command, AI voice % control, and other Soundcore options. Overall it feels like any other interface and is very intuitive.
Karaoke - so I used the speaker with Spotify and YouTube. It does a really good job fading out the voices and if you are not listening very carefully you would not know that the song ever had voices. The mics are easy to use and connected very easily by turning them on. Here is where my one star deduction comes in. The mic has a micro second lag when you first start to talk/sing. Once it gets going it is synched up timing wise. It is just that first part of the first word. I wonder if it is confusion with the AI track vocals elimination. Minor thing to have the fun wit hthe family singing w/o a subscription service or buying non-vocal version of the song. Side note: you can use the lyric on Spotify to sing karaoke!

This thing is wild
This system is pretty amazing. It does a lot without being overly complicated. I love anything from Anker and this doesn't disappoint. The build quality is solid, it looks really cool, and it works great. It weighs in at 23lbs. It's loud and sounds great. It has a large battery. The mics automatically pair and also have a really solid professional feel to them.
You can control it with the buttons on top and/or from the app. The app allows for more fine tuning of certain settings, like the level of AI vocal removal, custom color schemes, EQ values, voice effects, and reverb type. However, once you dial those in, the buttons on top of the speaker are pretty much all you need to turn on/off AI voice removal, bass boost, EQ, etc.
The AI vocal removal is wild - press a button and the vocals disappear without any real noticeable effect to the music quality. The level of removable can be controlled in the app, so you can choose to leave some vocals in the song to help balance out your singing. There is also an 'auto' mode that will fade the original vocals in/out to fill in gaps if you stop singing.
The price is up there, but feels somewhat justified with the build quality, UI polish, and features. The only thing that could make it better would be to show the lyrics while songs are being played. Maybe the AI voice removal could do that in the future, or maybe it could recognize the song and use a web service to fetch the lyrics. Apps like Apple Music can already scroll lyrics in sync with a song, so it is not totally necessary.

Cool speaker with room for improvement..
The main attraction with this party speaker is the wireless microphones and vocal suppression mode. Other speakers have vocal suppression, but this speaker doesn't about as well as I've seen. The mics work fairly well, but they can cut out at times and the lowest volume level is pretty loud. Speaker battery life seems quite a bit less than advertised. The microphones themselves require two AA batteries each, bit rechargeable.
The sound quality is solid and bass comes through well enough, but the deeper bass is a bit lacking. Some bass tracks will also cause some rear port chuffing, which can be a bit annoying. The Soundcore app allows you to adjust EQ and light settings..
Overall, a good first effort by Sound ore at a karaoke style party speaker, but certainly room for improvement.

My new outdoor "boombox". (works inside also)
I am a Vine reviewer who actually opens the box, really tests, really evaluates, and writes really honest unbiased reviews of products.
In *just* the past five years alone, I have listened to, handled, tested, and evaluated hundreds of Bluetooth speakers as well as having written almost a hundred reviews. I bought a LOT of them, some costing over $500. But I would only ever *objectively* compare a speaker based on its price and size compared to similar speakers in its "class". Speakers costing more than a speaker in a review are not considered. And I don't mention competition.
Having written that, I note that there are a lot of reviews concerning this speaker, especially the karaoke aspect of it, so I will only mention what I objectively discovered while reviewing this speaker.
Since the release of this speaker there have been a LOT of reviews on the internet, most of them extremely favorable, which I agree with. I am very discerning when it comes to listening to music, I want it to sound like it did when it was made. Since Bluetooth speakers really can't reproduce music that faithfully, (few speakers can actually) I'm constantly looking for the "best" at reasonable price.
I like this speaker. I'm now willing to lug this thing outside as my go to speaker when in the yard doing whatever even though it's barely portable (for an old person anyway). I've been listening to this speaker for a couple of weeks now, and I'm very impressed. I've bought a lot of Soundcore products and for the most part they really deliver for the money. I'm always looking forward to Soundcore new speaker releases.
I've always been puzzled however why Soundcore releases products with a flat EQ. It seems to cause bad reviews from people who aren't willing to use the embedded ap to "fix" the speaker. Once the EQ is adjusted, this speaker is outstanding. The bass output from a small 6½" driver is phenomenal outside in the yard from at least a hundred feet away. I did not expect that. None of my other "big name" (and a few more expensive) speakers will do that. Inside my basement shop I hear stuff rattling all over the house that I never heard before. Very impressive.
I usually don't turn my speakers up very loud so I rarely find a speaker that will deliver good bass at low volume. That includes this speaker, (still better than most) but once you get around 40% or so this unit really begins to shine. I'm sure that most people will probably not use a speaker like this at those volume levels anyway.
The high frequencies, once the EQ is adjusted are also impressive. I almost always max out the treble on everything because that is what I personally prefer, and this speaker delivers, really crisp and sharp with awesome vocals. I acknowledge that everyone prefers something different, but for me, this speaker does a fine job across the sound spectrum.
As far as the lights, looks good in the dark with a few different sequences. Again, personally, I always turn lights off, which I'm glad is an option.
Other people, including the internet reviewers have commented on the remarkable ability of this unit to function as a karaoke machine. I'll let my kids deal with that, I mainly wanted a great speaker, which I got.
Very recommended machine.

Great portable sound system
Wow is this booming. Shocked at how much bass this has. Quality sounds great and the mc funtion is awesome. Coming with 2 mics is a nice touch and they work great. Lighting is cool and the volume indicator, although id prefer a volume indicator on the top control.

A true party in a box with a small annoying flaw
This karaoke speaker is top notch. It is very versatile and can be used as just a Bluetooth speaker for a party setup or for a fun karaoke session.
Sound quality is probably the best of any of the portable sound systems I've ever owned. There are tons of options to increase base, remove vocals, and change lights to your liking. At full volume this may raise the ire of your neighbors as it can get really loud and definitely fill a small auditorium, patio area, or other large gathering spaces. But even at full volume it does not have distortion.
The app is highly functional and I had no issues changing all of the settings from the app as I would be able to on the main control panel. Battery life appears to be very sufficient and I was not able to discharge the entire unit in a long listening session over 6 hours.
The range of the karaoke mics seems to be more than enough and I was able to use the microphones up to 50 ft away from the unit with no issue.
If there was one thing I could add it would be to have some way of charging the microphones while on the speaker instead of having to use batteries. It seems like such a waste to have to buy AA batteries these days when rechargeable devices are the norm. If it was able to charge the microphones while docked that would be an added benefit and it is sorely missed here. Unfortunately have to only give this 4 out of 5 stars for such an obvious design miss.
That doesn't mean the unit is a showstopper due to the microphone batteries, but I would consider a unit that does offer that as a selling point over this one.

Soundcore customer support and Rave 3S microphone hissing.
Update:
I am happy to report that Soundcore promptly and professionally replied to my concern. I was notified that they were working on a firmware update that should address my issue; I received an update the following day and it resolved my mic cutoff problem, which was a deal breaker. I am upgrading my rating to "4" in acknowledgement of Soundcore's timely and professional communication and the resolution of my biggest issue with the product.
Unfortunately I am still experiencing problems with hissing/distortion in connection with using the provided wireless mics. I do not experience such distortion when using a wired mic plugged into the back of the speaker (please see video). While disappointing, I find the wireless mics "good enough", and will keep the system as I am satisfied with the overall sound quality and volume of the speaker, and love the voice volume reduction feature.
As a satisfied owner of the Soundcore X600 speaker, a pair of the Select 4 Go speakers and many Anker power banks, chargers and cables, I have found Anker/Soundcore products to be well made and a good value. I am hopeful that Soundcore will eventually address the humming/distortion in a future firmware update. If so I will update this review.
Original review:
The provided wireless microphones that came with my unit (Purchased 3/19/25) cutoff intermittently, making the unit unusable for karaoke. While I am also experiencing the mic hissing/distortion issue mentioned in various YouTube reviews, this cutoff problem is a deal breaker. This video compares the Rave 3S mics with a JBL wireless mic and an inexpensive Samson wired mic. I hope Soundcore can resolve this issue before my 30 day return window closes. If so I will update this review.

Worth every penny!
I am so over impressed by the speaker! the base shakes the room almost as much as my surround sound home theater lol like I bought the first soundcore rave in 2020, and I’ve been waiting for a stronger upgraded model since 2023 and I am completely satisfied. The sound quality is clean and crisp. The LED lights are amazing. I do hope they add more customization to your own light effects though in future updates, the EQ is out of this world I’ve never seen one with so much customization, I pre-ordered mine with the bundle with the lights Eufy lights off soundcore’s website, so this was definitely a steal! $50 off the speaker and $129 lights! But if I have to pay full price for this speaker I would regardless, such an amazing product! The speaker is awesome and I’m very satisfied thank you soundcore for yet another great product. Look forward to more.
