Doss SoundBox
Score: 48/100
EWA A106 Pro
Score: 61/100Rankings
The EWA A106 Pro is a palm-sized, IP67-rated Bluetooth speaker with strong bass for its size, lightweight design and a travel case. It offers up to 12 h playback at moderate volume but lacks a microphone, aux input and can be quiet at high volume.
The DOSS SoundBox Touch offers solid sound and useful connectivity in a compact, budget-friendly package, but its battery life falls short of claims and the micro-USB port is prone to breakage.

Professional reviewers commend the SoundBox Touch for delivering audio performance that rivals speakers twice its price, highlighting its robust bass, clear mids, and innovative touch interface. They also appreciate the IPX5 rating and the inclusion of aux and Micro SD inputs, which are uncommon at this price point. However, they criticize the overstated battery claim, the fragile micro-USB port, the unavoidable voice prompts, and the lack of dust protection.
Everyday users love the speaker's powerful bass, compact portability, and easy connectivity, often comparing it favorably to much more expensive brands. Recurring complaints focus on the easily broken charging port, loud voice alerts, shorter-than-advertised battery life, and the scratch-prone touch surface.
Professional reviewers highlight the A106 Pro's ability to produce room-filling audio and impressive bass for its dimensions, noting the sub-1 % harmonic distortion and rugged IP67 construction as key strengths.
Everyday users consistently praise the small footprint paired with strong sound and waterproof capability, while noting limited loudness, reduced battery at high volume and occasional confusion over the charging cable type.
