This rugged portable speaker is super simple to use, sounds good, and can be paired with up to 100 other JBL speakers at once to create a huge wall of sound. The JBL Flip 6 is a prime example of a Bluetooth speaker that sticks to the basics, and gets it right. If you're looking for a speaker to chuck in a bag or clip to a bike, you'll find it hard to get a better speaker for such a low price. And battery life is superb, up from the 8 hours of the original Micro to a travelling or beach day-friendly 12 hours.

We particularly enjoyed the bass response here, which is where small speakers usually fall down: Tribit is keeping quiet about the exact specifications of the driver in this model but whatever it is it delivers impressive bass for such a small footprint. It's also a great option if you're looking for a stereo pair of speakers for a small room: you can pick up two of these for what you'd pay for one of its better known rivals. The Micro 2 is a brilliantly pocketable portable speaker that's surprisingly good for music as well as an excellent option for listening to podcasts or just watching TV shows on a mobile device. It's not the most powerful or the loudest Bluetooth speaker out there, but at this size and price you can't buy better. The Tribit Stormbox Micro 2 is the best-sounding and most fully-featured mini Bluetooth speaker we've had the pleasure of testing. If you’re concerned about privacy and want to save around $20 / £20 / AU$30 then the Roam SL could be exactly what you want. Much like the Sonos One and its Sonos One SL counterpart, this new version of the Roam lacks a microphone but is otherwise identical in terms of specs. Update: Sonos has just announced the brand new Sonos Roam SL. The battery life isn't huge, though – enough for a good day out, but if that's a priority, check out the B&O A1, which more than doubles it. Its slick design means the Sonos Roam won’t look out of place in your home, while a rugged, waterproof and dustproof build make it ideal for listening to music outdoors.

Following in the footsteps of the Sonos Move, the Sonos Roam comes with both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, which means it can work as a portable speaker as well as part of your wider multi-room Sonos system – and with Google Assistant and Alexa onboard (when you're on Wi-Fi), it doubles up a smart speaker too.Ĭompared to similar priced Bluetooth speakers we've tested, you’re getting a lot of features for your money here.
