Bluetooth signals don’t work underwater, but the Soundcore Mini 3 is otherwise an ideal option for outdoor environments and can stand up to wet weather or poolside splashes. Increase the volume on the connected device and see if the volume on the docking station remains stable. The speaker's base is rubberized to prevent it from dancing across flat surfaces and it seems to have a mild suction-like ability on some surfaces; this property may create vibrations that affect the sonics a bit, however.

Anker estimates the Soundcore Mini 3’s battery life to last roughly 15 hours, but your results will vary based on your volume levels.The Soundcore Mini 3’s IPX7 rating means that it's fully waterproof, so you can expose it to splashes, rinse it off under a faucet, and even submerge it in up to a meter of water.
