Great for providing the soundtrack to outdoor entertaining, it has Bluetooth 4.0 for rapid connection (it works on Android and iPhones), a 66ft transmission range, and it’s equipped with a noise-cancelling microphone to enable convenient hands-free calling away from your device. 

Better still, the Anker Soundcore mini speaker has a seriously impressive battery life, supplying 15 hours of continuous playtime on a single charge, more than double that of comparable speakers. 

The super-portable Bluetooth speaker delivers powerful sound and robust bass through an advanced 5W driver and passive subwoofer 

The Anker Soundcore mini is one of the bestselling portable Bluetooth speakers on Amazon. With over 61,000 five-star reviews and a near-perfect average star rating of 4.7 out of 5, it has impressed thousands of happy shoppers. 

Shoppers have raved ‘TINY stature HUGE sound’, ‘what a monster of sound in such a little form’ and ‘great little speaker for the money’.

One impressed shopper wrote: ‘Great sounding and substantial. Surprised by how great this sounded. It’s quite robust and weighty. I’m really pleased with it. Battery life is good. 

‘I actually forgot about charging it and used it for ages before it needed charging again.’

Another agreed, adding: ‘For around £20 I believe this is as good a compact speaker one can buy. Beautifully made, easy to pair/connect, long battery life and powerful, balanced sound. What more can be asked? I bought 2.’

A third penned: ‘I wasn’t expecting a huge Hi-Fi sound, but what this delivers is quite incredible. Balanced lows, mids and high frequencies. Loud enough to work with laptops, ipads, iphones and have to turn it down to talk!.’
