According to the specs, the Soundcore 2 weighs just about 13 ounces, which is a lot for a device that’s only 6.5 inches long. I’ll get more into the material choices in the next section, but the first thing you notice you when you take the speaker out of the box is how heavy it seems. Lifewire / Jason Schneider Portability: Dense and compact That’s not a huge deal during normal, indoor use, but when you’re outside, passing the speaker around a patio table or tossing it on a sandy towel, you’re definitely going to pick up some blemishes. One con to this soft rubber material choice is that it is very prone to greasy fingerprints. You can also choose between black for a simpler look, and bright red or blue for a bit more of a statement (though the design is still simple, of course). The two LED indicator lights (for Bluetooth pairing and on/off) are very small and not particularly bright, and even the control buttons are just rubber punch outs on the top. Even the logo on the back has been imprinted on the soft rubber, rather than marked in ink. In fact, the only visual aspect that could even be considered a “design choice” is the light gray Anker logo emblazoned on the front grille of the speakers. This gives you a much more unassuming device in a tech category that often goes for loud pops of color.

Lifewire / Jason Schneider Design: Basic, but in a good way
