Score: 79/100Rankings
The DOSS SoundBox Pro is a compact Bluetooth speaker delivering 20 W stereo sound with a 20-hour battery and IPX6 waterproof protection. Its heavier build and modest bass depth are notable trade-offs. Best suited for budget-conscious users who prioritize long playtime and party features.
The Soundcore Select 4 Go is an ultra-portable Bluetooth shower speaker offering up to 20 hours of playtime and IP67 waterproof, floatable protection.
