✓ 24-hour battery life with quick charging ✗ Sound quality suffers at higher volume levels Are you looking for a volume boost instead? You can also pair the Megaboom 3 and take them out of stereo mode for pure volume. If you're looking for stereo sound, the Megaboom 3 can pair with another Megaboom 3 for true stereo. That's impressive, but keep in mind that walls and other structures between you and the speaker will reduce the overall range.
The maximum range here is 131 feet or 40 meters.

The Ultimate Ears Megaboom 3 features an extended range compared to most Bluetooth speakers. This shouldn't ever come into play, however, as the speaker also floats. Not only is the speaker IP67-rated water-resistant, but it can withstand being submerged in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes. If that party happens to be near a pool, the Megaboom 3 really comes into its element. With 20 hours of playtime, you can keep the party going for a while. This is great for parties, as regardless of where people are, they can hear the music like they're standing in front of the speaker. Like other Ultimate Ears speakers like the Wonderboom 3, the Megaboom 3 uses a 360-degree design, meaning you get the same sound in every direction around the speaker. Fortunately, the capacitive touch controls mean there are far fewer points where water can get inside the speaker. The SoundBox Touch is IPX4-rated water-resistant, which means it can withstand a few splashes, but you want to avoid dunking it in water. Related: The Best Budget Speakers of 2023

Despite the small size, Doss managed to fit a pair of drivers into the speaker, powered by a 12-watt class D amplifier. While the speaker is small enough that it can nearly fit in the palm of your hand, the SoundBox Touch features stereo sound. The DOSS SoundBox Touch ticks all those boxes and more, which is what earned it the top spot on our best budget Bluetooth speakers roundup.

Many people shopping for portable speakers aren't looking for audiophile clarity, but a simple speaker they can take with them everywhere that also sounds pretty good.
✗ Only 12 watts means it won't get very loud As Sonos is synonymous with multiroom audio, you can also buy the Move in a two-room set or a four-room set. The Sonos Move comes in Black and White color options. A USB-C port makes for easy charging while you're on the move, but Sonos includes a charging base that you can place the speaker on when you're at home. When it comes time to power it back up, you've got two options. The Sonos Move offers up to 11 hours of playtime on a single charge. On the other hand, most of the other speakers we're looking at have a higher IP67 rating. It has an IP56 rating, and Sonos says it can withstand exposure to humidity, rain, snow, dust, and extreme temperatures. While the Sonos Move is weather-resistant, it's not quite as tough as some of the other speakers we're looking at. This means you can use Wi-Fi at home and the Move acts like a traditional Sonos speaker, but you can also take it on the move and treat it like a Bluetooth speaker. On the other hand, unlike most other Sonos speakers, the Move supports Bluetooth connectivity. The most common way you'll connect is via Bluetooth, but some portable speakers offer alternate wireless connectivity options like Wi-Fi. Instead, you'll need to rely on an external device like your phone for music.
Of course, while most boomboxes feature built-in playback methods like an FM radio or built-in CD player, portable speakers don't. That said, if you're looking for a speaker to bring with you on a weekend trip, a bigger battery (which is measured in milliamp hours) will let you leave the charger at home. If you're only using your speaker for an hour or two a day and frequently recharging, this doesn't matter as much. If you're mainly using your speaker indoors, you can disregard this, but the higher the IP rating, the more water and dust-resistant a speaker is.Īnother major aspect to consider is the battery life. Every speaker we're looking at here features an IP rating, which describes how weather-resistant a given speaker is. Weather resistance is another important factor when shopping for a portable speaker.
