The Soundcore Boom Go 3i Portable Bluetooth Speaker has dropped to $49.99 from its usual $79.99, and price trackers suggest this is the lowest it has reached so far. It is a compact, palm-sized speaker designed for portability, weighing just about 380 grams. There’s also a built-in silicone strap, which is basic but practical, letting you loop it onto a bike handlebar or hang it at a campsite without needing extra accessories.
Sound quality out of the box is average, with mids coming through clearly, while bass and treble feel restrained. You can fine-tune it by making a few EQ adjustments in the app. It still will not sound like a larger speaker (its 15W mono output keeps expectations in check), but it becomes enjoyable for casual listening with a small group nearby. The focus here is durability—with an IP68 rating, it is fully dustproof and can handle submersion in water, making it a safe option for outdoor use. Soundcore also says it can survive drops from about a meter, which adds some reassurance when you are using it in less controlled environments.
What do you think so far?
There are also a few extras that add flexibility, such as the small digital display on the side that shows the battery level and status icons, and RGB lighting that reacts to music. You can turn the lighting off if you prefer a simpler look or want to conserve battery, which, according to the manufacturer, can last up to 24 hours at moderate volume with the lights off and stretch to 40 hours in Eco Mode, though heavier use with the lighting enabled brings it closer to six hours. Most controls sit inside the companion app, where you can adjust EQ, enable BassUp 2.0, switch to Eco Mode, or remap buttons. There is also a voice amplifier feature, which feels niche but could come in handy outdoors.
