So this is the Soundcore Motion 300, its a very portable, durable and loud 30 watt speaker that’s also very affordable. For today we’re going to see how it compares to the Bose Soundlink Flex. Now these two speakers looks very similar to one another… but they are very different from one another.

The thing about that bose that impresses me, is how clever the tuning is. Listening to it outdoors, makes it sound very big because of it's upper bass, which gives the illusion of having lots of bass outdoors where you usually can't hear deep bass from small speakers.
So for outdoors the flex is not only comfirtable to hold, but it has a perfect tuning for outdoors.
It's a very specific v shaped eq that gives a smooth listening experience, because it doesn't focus on upper mids, which is why the sound is so buttery.
Speakers like the charge 5 have a more "in your face" type of tuning, better for vocals and certain types of music.
The flex also is orientation aware and adjusts eq based on upright or flat.
Alan - we are waiting for your take on this new offering by Soundcore. I just bought this for $65 and arriving tomorrow.

@@alanrossreviewsI’ve been in touch since the (US only) early bird farce.
I’ve been told by the helpline that it’ll be available in the UK on the 17th. (Suppose that might slip, cos it has sold out on the US site. ). We’d better get an early bird!

I feel like having another comparison between the bass up on and off would've made more sense but other than that, nice short but detailed review that doesn't artificially drag out too long. I think I prefer the Bose but for the price the Motion 300 seems very good!
Indeed. Not sure if it is just the bass mode, or a motion signature sound, but the mids are too high and disrupting the other frequencies.
I listened with my eyes closed. when I liked the sound, it always turned out to be Bose Flex
you are wrong because what you are hearing is the speaker of your device. you need to listen them personally to make a verdict.
@@AkoToMarjon I'm right! Besides, I went shopping and listened to this portable speaker live with my ears. And it was exactly the same. Bose sounded better than many of Creative, Edifier, LG, Samsung, JBL and others. The only one that sounded about as good was Harman/Kardon. I've been looking for my wired Microlab for a very long time to have a good sound. Therefore, I understand perfectly well through them whether the sound will eventually be normal from the video or not. And even if I don't like the sound from the video through my speakers... then there's no shit at all...
@@codeforgames🤡
They say all sound is subjective to your ears. So nobody’s wrong and no arguing. Just hug it out lol.
I heard both, flex takes it😂@@AkoToMarjon
Awesome content bro 🔥
I love my motion 300 and it sounds much better without bass boost. Use that custom eq setting!
I have the Bose Soundlink Flex. One Ruby red and another one all black. And when you pair them together in stereo mode, they sound phenomenal for the size of the speaker. The sound signature on the Bose keeps the bass easily audible no matter the volume level, and the highs are not to bright to the point they drown out the rest of the instrumentation on the music track.
Throw in the tribit stoembox Flow
@jerzrich8725 the firmware update on the Tribit greatly updated the sound quality of the speaker
Does the EQ Animation shown on the Tab have anything to do with the played Music ? I think not, so why ?
The motion x600 can you dj with that? Like connect two phones at the same time
So... linking 2 x300 to get surround stereo for $10 more than a single mono bose.... and getting similar sound quality. Seems like a no brainer for my use case (garage shop speaker). Thanks for the comparison video, been searching for a cost effective noise solution for my shop for hours!
nice review sir!
Bose wins period, soundcore is ok for the price. But pair two of those little Bose speakers and they sound amazing
Soundcore being “ok” is false asf. Stop it
@@heyolorenns it’s OK for the price what you saying?
Actually nevermind you got a point, bose sounds way better for its price compared to soundcore
Yes, but don’t the best speakers come from Chinese companies and not North American companies?
@@joelf5565 At one point or another (often at every level of assembly) it's all Chinese labor, including materials.
Can this be connected to a Smart TV? Have you tried?
GYMCADDY , Thanks Much !.......
I don’t understand why you rate the sound based on having the base up feature turned off, but all the examples you gave us were with the base turned on. Did you do the test both ways and just not put it in video or are you making assumptions? Based on this alone, I would struggle make any decisions based on your review.
Two other things you left out.
1. The Bose speaker will also adapt its sound to its position.
2. The Bose speaker floats.
which set can disable auto off?
so having tried both speakers in my experience the soundcore is the clearer sounding speaker i.e has the clarity of highs and mids instead of just bass. i was disappointed with the bose having 2 previous soundlink mini's which were brilliant. also the soundcore has a custom eq feature which helps get the best out of the genre of music you're listening too
Bose reduced their quality in electronics to have cost effective incommings. Mono speaker with bass focus and downmixed frequencies. Their headphones are very good, but the bluetooth speakers are not that good for the price they ask, maybe on sale seasons.
@@rudolof8540 you already pay more for they product but they still using bluetooth 4.1 and all they batterys usual small compare to other brands. they make good sound but feels liek they cut corners for the value they give.
Thank you
Can't wait for the Bose Quietcomfort Ultra headphones review
How much $$ they charging ?
@@jerzrich8725 430
It would be nice to hear the soundcore with bass enhance turned off, cause with it on it didn’t sound nice…very muddy. The Bose sounded very good.
Bro, where is the Partybox Ultimate videos??
Bose is old but Gold 😮
Motion 300 is a bit muddied but louder and slightly more low end punch but Bose is more refined and open
Agreed.bose sound wider
but dosent have motion 300 have high latancy tho. couple review mention its on the high end.
The flex has a tendency of shooting up mids and highs when there's no bass at all and dropping bass slightly after a certain interval (about 5 - 10 seconds) when the lows get back in the track. The speaker resonates better when placed in front of something solid like a wall/corner of a closed room etc. I just don't like it playing in the open. Hot mention, it's nice if you can get two flex speakers and sync them with the app - way better sound. I'm waiting for my soundcore to arrive
Hi, can you tell me about your experience with the motion300 ?
Just bought the Flex and sounds so good, but I’m missing stereo when having it closer to me at lower volumes
@@V100X it's just okay, but not better than the flex
@@allanvanmuks1263 just okay? considering one or the other.
@@God-mb8wi I like warm sound (more bass) so in my opinion the flex is better but, I've found people not liking it at all. Everyone likes their sound different.
@@allanvanmuks1263 That´s what happened to me. Tested both but returned flex for their bassy profile and muddy midrange. Liked the soundcore 300 beacuse more detail in two drivers factor (by not downmixing tghe track in mono) and less bass focused than flex to enjoy the mid and high range. Well it´s a matter of taste like you mention.
I would go with motion 300 probpaly because its lot cheaper for little speaker and lot more portable
I want the soundcore, i have the bose flex and after about 80% vol the bass just disappear.
The soundcore has less bass, so good luck😂
@megakebab1702 luck and prayers is all we got 🤣
@@kNiV3Z if i were you i wouldn't get the soundcore.
I got the flex not too long ago and i really enjoy the way it sounds, the sound signature of the upper bass is what makes it sound so large outdoors. And i also have the charge 5
@megakebab1702 I've been using my soundcore motion boom since the usb c port fell out my flex. I like the size of the flex but i hate the battery since i is it for work. I might just get the soundcore motion plus again for its size and battery. That's a great speaker
Im gonna get my Motion 300 soon and will see whether i like it or not, but this video gives me a good idea, kinda wished you went bass off for the motion so i can get a clearer sound from it but for the most part i do like the bosw just slightly better but price wise the mostion sounds like a steal cause it is only slightly worse.
Any update?
@@rudianwar1569 Yes, I was able to do a live comparison between the Bose Flex Motion 300 and the W-King D320. And they are all great speakers. The Bose Flex of course was the clearest with good bass, but for the price the Motion 300 isn't far behind, the basic EQ settings are ok but when you get to customize them to your liking it sounds way better of course. Bass up mode is ok but is nothing compared to a custom EQ. I would recommend if you don't have the money for the Bose.
@aaronroybal5799 how is the wking ?? Did ya get app downloaded?? Curious how it stacks up soundwise vs 300
@@wadec6799 I do have the app for the W-King. It's a bit complicated to set up because of the manual update you have to do but it does make the speaker better. It's a good speaker that gets decently loud. Against the 300 it's a bit quieter but definitely has better bass. Overall the 300 is better but the W-King is nothing to scoff at either, I would recommend it.
@aaronroybal5799 appreciate the reply I ordered the 320 in blue colorway supposedly comes ready for app not the big download and got it for 49.99 plus tax 1 speaker I liked for smaller was the tozo pa2 but just not quite enough sound for what I'm lookin for but wking will be here tomorrow so pretty excited to try it out.... was a big fan of their d9 d10 but now lookin for somethin smaller for icefishin this yr otherwise I'd rock my blast or take out one of my pb110's
I have the Bose Soundlink flex and I love it, I also just picked up a JBL charge 5 and I love it.
I need a sense of why you have two almost identical speakers🤔
@@__.trung._bose is more of an indoor speaker because of clarity, while Charge 5 is more outdoor because of bass and volume
@@betelgeuse227 still the problem why you have 2 similar speakers..
@@__.trung._ because tou need 2 Speakers that fit your budget and requierments
I have both, soundlink flex and charge 5 and my favorite one is the soundlink flex. The sound signature on the Bose sounds just right and i can hear the instrumentation cleaner and clearer. The Charge 5 is obviously louder but at times it seems the tweeter gets to loud to the point it drowns out the lows.
What is the best eq for motion 300?
oluv eq
Both should have a loop on both ends so you could put a strap on it.
Sound core is always the wind when it comes to power
How can anybody say they sound the same? I had both but i never get satisfied with the motion 300. I think nobody with audiophil ears will do. The sound engineers did a real good job on the Soundlink flex.
I have experienced bose soundlink flex with several tests and I can suggest you if the volume of bose flex is about 50%-70% then you should stay at a distance of 3.8metres to experience the real sound of bose....👍
Bro, you already said in the review it sounds worse with Bass Up on. So why keep it on in both its comparison videos. Please remake a comparison with Bass Up off with JBL Flip 6.
I agree! The Bose did sound better than the Motion 300 with the Bass Mode on. A comparison with the stock tuning would have made more sense and would have supported the conclusion of this video. At its current state it doesn’t support it. Especially for people not listening the whole way through and making their buying decision purely based on the first few minutes.
Have the Motion 300 and yeah, sounds like the Bose SoundLink, better to have the Bass Up off, sounds louder and clear, and don't forget the Mic built-in, I tried it and sounds like you're in your phone no matter the place.
Price and sound would be the reasons to buy it, the battery is also nice, from 40% to 100 in 25/30 minutes. Use the Smart EQ, does work so well. And let me say that sounds even a bit louder laying down, that's what I've perceived. Hard to compete Bose, but this speaker worth the price and sound.
more interesting when compare bose flex to tribit flow 😅 great comparision !
The bose sounded clearer but the motion 300 is stereo and the bose is mono but i still prefer the bose
no
Is muffled in the mid range and the high is scooped by the dsp a lot of times with that overbassy profile of bose. And mono driver that downmix the track.
I’m fast becoming a Soundcore fan girl, so am really looking forward to getting this when they release it in the UK - apparently on the 17th.
Thanks, as always, for your video!
awful company.
Wow that dialogue is neutered with the motion 300 Bass Up feature.
Se nota la ventaja de ser stereo!

should have left the bass mode off on the soundcore
Sounding much the same with the BOSE a little more defining the highs. I would say the are even.
Bose is a bright and clear sound both speakers are good performance quality of sound
Soundcore is UNDERRATED. For the price & performance, Soundcore wins 🫡
No
i like motion 300
There’s too many soundcore fans trying so hard to put their speakers on the Bose level but the Bose is superior to soundcore it’s not up for debate
Bose loses a lot of frequencies in the mix (Is very noticeable like in the soundlink revolve I and II). Well no wonder is mono speaker. Soundcore300 is not that bass strong as flex but has more detail with their two full range drivers and less mudded in midrange than bose.
Bose i like it sound

Bose sounds better but soundcore is not bad for the price
Bose sounds cleaner less bass
Bose is lazy. Pay more for less. Sounds a little clearer and has more physical bass when laid down position. Other than those two things, Soundcore wins at price, full feature app that will update speaker via portable device without a full desktop computer, removable strap, dimmable function lights, better battery life than Bose as well. I’m a Bose fan. They are awesome. I’m not sure if the Bose marginal sound quality is making up for overall cost and lack of function. I was going to return my two Soundcore 300. I did compare the Bose flex and the Motion 300 at home. Had to return the Bose within 14days. The more I have had time to think about it. I’d much rather spend less on a portable speaker and more on a home speaker. I’m an artist that listens to audio all day everyday for the most part. I do wish Bose stepped up their game. Form and Function combined with beautiful sound then you can charge $250 for two speakers. Also to both brands. Where’s the input connection. Y’all trying to be cheap like Apple.
my nose flex dies in 3 hrs less than a golf round..shityy
You explain to much, and need to put different songs
The speakers on the Bose copycat are clearly not woofers. They are obviously full range drivers or else they wouldn't be able to produce treble. How the hell are you reviewing speakers 🤦🏻♂️
Don't show off with cheap knowledge, let's wipe our feet and go to sleep.
@@Discriminator77777 shut up
The Bose sounds very muffled when compared to the sound core nothing compares against the company
Quite frankly my Bose SoundLink Flex does not sound tremendously muffed. Very very clear tremendous sound. BELIEVE ME 👌
Clearly you must be tone deaf then😁
As with all things Bose. The Flex will be 50 years old and people will still be like .... "Will my new trash FINALLY compete with Bose"😭😭😭
Thats why the Flex is so often compared to the Soundcore Motion Plus wich is much newer.
@felixgraber2415 Soundcore has ZERO to do with anything Bose. You/ WE make the comparisons. The Motion Plus is a Stereo System. The Flex is a Mono speaker that sounds like Stereo. Zero in common other than . Another "Wannabe" scenario. 🙄
Bose foam lumps are expensive trash
This video is about a speaker not foam lumps
There's no contest ....the Bose TRUMPS (as in 2024) over that inferior device
😂😂😂 Nah How? Soundcore has better app, Higher volume sound, LDAC, Stereo sound, Bass up feature if you want more bass
Bose foam lumps are expensive trash
Mono speaker with overboost bass that overshadow the other frequencies can´t be superior.
