EWA A106 Pro
Score: 61/100
JBL Go 3 Blue
Score: 70/100Rankings

The JBL Go 3 is a tiny, fabric-wrapped speaker that offers JBL's signature sound and IP67 protection in a pocket-sized form factor. Its modest 5-hour battery and limited bass keep it best suited for casual, low-volume listening rather than bass-heavy music.

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.
