Explore the new Soundcore Boom 3i, an ultra-durable, waterproof Bluetooth speaker with deep bass, floating design, smart tools, and up to 16 hours of playtime. Now available in the U.S.
If you're looking for the perfect outdoor speaker that can keep up with your adventures, from beach trips to backyard parties, the new Soundcore Boom 3i might just be your next go-to gadget. Launched by Soundcore, the premium audio brand of Anker Innovations, the Boom 3i brings together powerful sound, rugged durability, and clever smart features in one portable Bluetooth package.
One of the standout features of the Soundcore Boom 3i is its floatable design. Unlike typical speakers that sink or flip when placed in water, the Boom 3i stays upright while floating. This keeps the sound playing clearly even when you're chilling in the pool or rafting on the lake. Its IP68 water and dust resistance means it’s fully protected against splashes, spills, and even submersion for up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. Whether you're caught in the rain or covered in sand, this speaker is built to handle it.
What really sets the Boom 3i apart is its extreme durability. Coated with a protective layer, it’s been tested for up to 240 hours of salt spray, making it five times more resistant to saltwater corrosion compared to standard speakers. And if you accidentally drop it, no worries—it can survive drops from up to one meter onto concrete. This makes it perfect for those fun but chaotic outdoor moments.
In terms of sound, the Boom 3i does not disappoint. It's powered by a 40W woofer, a 10W tweeter, and dual bass radiators that work together to produce rich, immersive sound. The highs are crisp, and the bass is full-bodied—ideal for everything from energetic party playlists to chill acoustic sessions. Soundcore’s BassUp™ 2.0 technology boosts the bass by 3dB, delivering up to twice the bass compared to similar-sized competitors. Want even louder and more detailed sound? You can pair two Boom 3i speakers using True Wireless Stereo (TWS) for a true left-and-right channel experience.
To keep the party vibe alive, the Boom 3i also features customizable LED lighting that reacts to your music. Lights pulse and glow from both sides of the speaker, adding a visual element to your listening experience, especially fun when it gets dark.
Beyond sound and lights, the Boom 3i packs a few handy smart features accessible through the Soundcore app. You can tweak the EQ, control the lights, and even use tools like the Emergency Alarm, which emits a loud 96 dB alert if needed. There's also a Voice Amplifier to broadcast messages, and a Buzz Clean mode that shakes loose any dust or debris, ideal for sandy or dusty environments.
Battery life is solid too, with up to 16 hours of playtime on a single charge, enough for a full day out.
The Soundcore Boom 3i is now available in the U.S. for $139.99 via Amazon and Soundcore’s official website. At launch, it comes in Adventurer Black, but you can expect three more color options: Jungle Green, Desert Rose Brown, and Deep Ocean Blue by late June or early July. A special bundle with a carry handle and magnetic case will also launch later this summer for $149.99, available in select stores.
