Anker Sound Core 2

Anker Sound Core 2 is the next iteration of Anker's successful Bluetooth speaker line. The latest one offers a great balance of price, features, and build quality. The speaker is bright blue in color. The buttons to control the device are located at the top and are indented. On the side is a rubber gasket which when you open will reveal a USB power jack as well as a 3.5 mm auxiliary jack to connect to a larger speaker.

As for the features, the speaker has two 6W speakers and two 1.5 inch drivers which produce a nice stereo. It also has IPX5 protection that guards against the elements such as rain, dust, or snow, and is great for that outdoor party. Because of that, the build quality is absolutely great. Finally, the speaker's generous 5200 mAh Li-ion battery can last up to 24 hours.

The size of the speaker may be small but don't let it fool you as it  produces a nice rich sound with decent bass and treble

Despite all these features, the price is under $50 which is very palatable for the budget-conscious buyer. The Anker Sound Core 2 serves as an excellent entry-level Bluetooth speaker and I would definitely recommend it to just about anybody.
