Best Sound Bluetooth Speakers of 2025
Tribit Xsound Go: Despite being on the market for several years, the Tribit Xsound Go continues to be one of the top Bluetooth speakers for money. In addition to being decent to stream your favorite music and more, this affordable Bluetooth speaker is also completely waterproof. There have been small upgrades over the years.
JBL Pulse 5: JBL’s pulse speakers are currently in the 5th generation, with improved sound quality and 360 degree light show. JBL “expanded the transparent outer body,” making the customizable light show look even more impressive. (There is a companion app for iOS and Android that allows you to change the colorful lighting effects.) The speaker is also IP67 dustproof and waterproof, offering up to 12 hours of battery at medium volume levels.
Anker Motion Boom: Anker is more expensive Soundcore Motion Boom Plus A substantial sound upgrade to the original motion boom, but this model remains a very good mini boom box for money. With handles equipped and weighing just over 4 pounds, the speaker reminds you of one of the huge flashlights or “floating lanterns” that were popular about 30 years ago. For recording, the motion boom actually floats and is completely waterproof with an IPX7 rating. See more about the original speaker Practical Motion Boom Review.
ue hyperboom: Ultimate Ears ‘Boom Bluetooth speakers come in several different sizes, but none of them are big Hyper Boom. The hyperboom, a supersonic wireless speaker that tilts the scale at a large 13 pounds UE MegaBoom 3 It definitely looks like he’ll be punished. Although it’s not cheap, its sound quality is better than many of the jumbo portable speakers on the market today. Read our review.
I want a marshall: Marshall’s Little Monowillen Speaker is similar to Bose’s SoundLink Micro and other micro speakers Tribit Stormbox Micro 2. And like these speakers, there is an integrated strap on the base so you can clip it to your backpack or onto your bike’s handlebars. The 2-inch full-range driver and two passive radiators produce more noise than it would be of a small size.
Tribal Storm Box(Not currently available): Stormbox looks like a cross between the UE and JBL speakers. I don’t think it was an accident. This fully waterproof speaker costs significantly more than the JBL Flip 5 and Flip 6 and produces louder sounds. Its rechargeable battery offers up to 20 hours of battery life to play music and more. The Tribit Xsound speaker is probably better worth it, but the Stormbox is more stylish.
Bang & Olufsen Beosound A1 (2nd generation): A few years ago, Bang & Olufsen upgraded their A1 speakers, which were covered in dome-shaped aluminum with improved battery life, improved speakerphone performance (now with a 3 microfan array), and slightly improved sound. It is not only the smallest wireless speaker from a Danish company, but it is technically the most affordable.
Sonos Roam: Available in white or black for $179, Roam is currently the smallest and most affordable Sonos speaker (if you don’t count the $99 Sonos compatible Symfonisk Ikea Wi-Fi Bookshelf speaker). It’s quite expensive for a mini wireless speaker. Like the Bigger Sonos Move 2 Portable Speaker, this Sonos Roam model is equipped with both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and can be leveraged with the existing Sonos multi-room audio system to link to two compatible Sonos speakers from other series. Please see more details on Sonos roams with hands-on reviews.
Bose Sound Link Micro: A bit expensive and will be upgraded, but the Bose Soundlink Micro offers more bass than other pocketable speakers. This is a completely waterproof Bluetooth speaker with three color options, but the blue version seems difficult to find.
Anker Soundcore Motion Plus: Anker’s Soundcore Motion Plus was launched in 2019 and is one of the best sounding speakers for around $100. It’s bigger than most mini Bluetooth speakers, but still compact. It makes a much more fulfilling sound than much of the competition in its price range, with a larger base, more volume and better clarity. It also supports APTX streaming codecs that are completely waterproof (IPX7 rated) and support devices like Samsung’s Galaxy Phone.
Bang & Olufsen Beosound Explore: It’s a bit too high for the sound quality it offers, but the Beosound Explore is a very good little speaker with a sophisticated and eye-catching design, completely waterproof and dustproof (IP67 rated), offering excellent battery life by listening to up to 27 hours of music at medium volume levels.
Monopris Sound Stage 3(Not available at the moment): Monopris tends to make electronic products with a rather common look, and its modest Soundstage 3 Bluetooth speaker probably won’t be surprised by its design. I don’t buy this speaker at a regular price of $250, but in many cases it often approaches $150. The speaker has the ability to line up with two 1-inch silk dome tweeters, thanks to its strong bass and ability to play big sounds with decent clarity, and has the ability to drive a 50-watt “conceive aluminum cone woofer.” There are also great connection options, such as digital optics that allow you to connect a TV or another stereo component, 3.5mm analog, and RCA analog wired input. There is also a sub-out port.
Tribit Xsound Mega(Not available at the moment): Over the past few years, Tribit has created several Bluetooth speakers that offer a lot of booms. Add a new Xsound mega to the list. Tribit is charging the Xsound Mega as more outdoor speakers. It includes a strap to tot as a kind of mini boom box, but it works well indoors. There is an LED light show that can be turned on or off, and the sound comes in three EQ settings: Xbass, Music and Audiobook. Additionally, it can be used as a power bank to charge mobile devices.
