Anker has expanded its Soundcore lineup with the introduction of the Select 3, a compact Bluetooth speaker now available in Germany through Amazon.de for €49.99. Designed for portability, the Select 3 weighs approximately 600 grams and measures 575 x 184 x 63 x 53 millimeters. A built-in carrying loop allows for easy attachment to backpacks, making it an ideal companion for outdoor activities.
The Soundcore Select 3 delivers a total output of 16 watts via two full-range 1.5-inch drivers, promising a balanced stereo sound experience. Incorporating BassUp technology, the speaker aims to enhance low-frequency performance, although some users perceive this feature as more of a marketing tactic rather than a substantial audio improvement. The IPX7 waterproof rating ensures that the speaker can withstand immersion in up to one meter of water for half an hour, making it suitable for use near water bodies like beaches or pools.
