What's the best portable bluetooth speaker currently on the market??

I see everyone with JBL ones

Unlimited budget but just looking for a light, compact one to take during summer picnics and stuff

the sony xb's are pretty good, I have the sony xb3, sounds very nice, I was using it in cars that didn't had aux, lol

if you have 2 of them you can link them together, it also has a usb port that can be used as an external battery

Was gonna make this thread a few days ago

Looks super cool and love the colorways it comes in

"I have several suggestions, they are speakers that I own and whose sound quality I can testify.

Dockin dfine: quite large in size, but full sound, it easily fills a room with good music, maybe a little boomy but in a pleasant way.

Tribix maxsound plus: low cost but absolutely excellent audio quality, quite light and portable.

Bose soundlink flex, typical Bose boomy sound, but beautiful, solid, waterproof. The most expensive of the lot." ~a user from AudioScienceReview

Thanks so much for all the info bro!!

well if budget ain't a problem I would peep the rest of the XB models

xb12

xb21

xb23

xb41

Jbl speakers are really worth it tho

I have the XB43

Fills a talkative room with sound, battery life is crazy and the price is solid.

Wish there was better low end but overall I recommend it

Anker Soundcore Motion Boom

Devialet make insane stuff

On the bigger side but yup, the plus model

op said unlimited budget

sonos roam is pretty cool

Frank Sinatra on my Sonos loud as f*ck I did it my way.

no one plugged UE Boom yet? been great in my experience.

been using ue boom 2 since 2017 still works but there is defintely better options out there

Can confirm this one is amazing

I’ve had a Sony XB since 2016, use it in the shower everyday, and have dropped it multiple times and it still works perfectly

JBL

My JBL Charge 5 is pretty sweet. My friend has the JBL Xtreme and that thing gets loud af but it’s significantly bigger.

How portable are we talking? The UE Hyperboom is apparently amazing but it’s massive (oh nvm you said light and compact)

Definitely can’t go wrong with any of the UEs

I swear I couldn’t break my Megaboom 3 if I tried
