6,700mAh vs 10,000mAh battery (16hr vs 24hr playtime)
Regular drivers vs Titanium drivers
LEDs on Select Pro
Also strangely the multi speaker mode works differently, on the motion boom, you can only pair it with one other speaker, however it is works as a stereo system with one handling the left and the other the rights channel. While the select Pro can connect up to 100 sparkers together, however they will all play the same sound, with no stereo effect

This gives it a very JBL or HK soundstage.

Edit: While buying speakers, I've learned something important. It's almost like buying a monitor or TV. The dynamic range is important (whites to black-level). If the speaker has well-balanced treble, it actually makes up for the lack of bass because the range of sound frequencies is greater. In the case of the Motion Select Pro, the trebles were simply not there but the bass covered for that missing range. Hope the Motion Boom has a wider range with the titanium drivers. It lacks the tweeters though. Get the Motion+ for that.
Listening to the Boom right now - out of the box it's very bass forward, muddy mid and high range but tweaking the EQ allowed the mid/upper ranges to poke through with decent clarity. It's a little monster when setup correctly, at least when compared within Bluetooth speakers.
My one piece of advice is if you're any sort of audiophile or appreciate balanced audio, use the EQ and don't be tempted to crank the 80-150hz range, there is already bass aplenty. Outdoors or party settings may differ. "Bass Up" is just a gimmick that over boosts the 80hz range way too much. Soundstage is quite narrow, but fine for what it is. It uses the SBC codec, as do most speakers in its class (excepting the Motion+ which does AptX), so don't bother pushing bitrates higher than ~340 kbps and expect magic - it's still a Bluetooth speaker.
Also got the Soundcore Select Pro from the Walmart sale prior to getting the Boom. Don't even need to open the box after listening to the Boom, and will be returned. For $20 more it's worth the peace of mind to have the superior product, even if slightly. If pairing three plus speakers in mono is your thing, I guess that's one advantage of the Select Pro, but at that point do yourself a favor and get some real speakers.
For what it's worth, check out Alan Ross Reviews on the Youtube for frequency/db/loudness analysis of the Boom, Motion+ etc. Sadly I was unable to find any similar tests on the Select Pro for actual comparisons. He's a nut, but the data is good.
If you're on the fence, just pull the trigger, you'll be happy you did.
My quick initial EQ settings will probably change, but may be helpful for owners out there. Experiment till you get a sound profile that works for you. Good hunting and enjoy.

Boring preamble aside, the Motion+ needs a fair amount of EQ to level out. I've shamelessly ripped a couple pictures from Alan Ross to illustrate this, as attached. For the frequency response chart, a few notes:
Top line is "My EQ". Note peak at 80hz is preference while still retaining a fairly flat rang. 8khz +6db may be slightly harsh to the ear even if flat, dial back as desired. Mid line is Flat with 80hz +3db. Bottom is Flat 80hz 0db.
Give it a whirl or not. Most important thing is what sounds good to you, even if it's not "technically" the purest representation of the audio.
