JBL Charge 4 provides excellent sound quality and portability—at an affordable price—making it a top option for a speaker with both AUX input and Bluetooth. The build quality is solid, and the waterproof exterior makes it suitable for camping outdoors or even in your bathroom.

When using the speaker outdoors, you don’t have to worry about charging the speaker since the built-in battery lasts over 20 hours on a single charge. If you’re out camping with your friends and they, too, have JBL speakers, you can link all of them together for an even more impactful audio experience. Despite the brand launching its new Charge 5 speaker, the Charge 4 still provides terrific bang for your buck.

LG XBOOM Go PL5

The LG XBOOM Go PL5 is one of the more affordable options on our list. However, it is laden with a treasure trove of features. For one, the unit ships with two 1.75-inch speaker units that work with two passive radiators. A passive radiator allows a driver to produce more pronounced bass by displacing the air pressure inside the speaker.

The speaker has been tuned by the famed British audio brand Meridian, which is an added plus. It also comes with RGB LEDs, which can sync with the beats of your soundtrack. We should also add that the speaker comes with Bluetooth Multi-Point support. As a result, you can pair two devices to the speaker and daisy-chain your speaker with up to 100 other PL5 speakers.

Edifier’s MP700 features a stunning industrial design replete with an aluminum grill. The device also comes with a nifty handle. You can even angle the stand and have the unit propped on your desk.

The Edifier MP700 ships with two drivers and two tweeters that can operate across a frequency spectrum of 80Hz to 20KHz. Notably, the unit doesn’t come with a passive radiator, so its low-end output might be a bit lacking. On the other hand, the Edifier MP700 is impervious to damage from splashes of water and dust. The speaker also supports NFC, along with a built-in AUX input.

The Tribit X Sound Mega Bluetooth speaker can link with up to 100 Tribit X Sound Mega devices for a roaring audio output.  It’s also IPX7-rated, so you should be able to use it at pool parties without worrying about damaging the unit. Additionally, the speaker can play music for up to 20 hours, making it a great speaker for outdoorsy folks.

The Klipsch Heritage Groove trades a rugged chassis in favor of more premium, albeit delicate, materials. The device has been constructed using veneer wood. Unsurprisingly, it doesn’t come with any dust or water resistance.

Spec-wise, the speaker has a 3-inch, full-range, high-excursion driver that can operate across a frequency range of 65Hz to 22KHz. It also has two side-firing bass radiators. Furthermore, the unit can play music for up to eight hours off a single charge. You can even take calls with the speaker since it comes with a built-in microphone.

Marshall Stanmore II

The Marshall Stanmore II is a notch above the other speakers on this list in terms of price; it also delivers high-quality audio. The speaker looks great but is too bulky to carry around while traveling.

On the other hand, the large footprint ensures the audio output is superior and louder compared to the other options on this list. While the brand allows you to create a stereo effect by pairing two Stanmore IIs together, the connectivity is spotty, ruining the experience.
