JBL Charge 6
Score: 89/100Rankings
The JBL Charge 6 is a rugged, high-performance speaker with 28 h battery life, IP68 durability, AI-enhanced sound and a built-in powerbank, but its size and weight make it less portable.
The XSound Plus 2 packs a hefty 30 W output, strong bass and a 45 m Bluetooth range into a compact, IPX7-rated speaker with up to 24 hours of playback. It offers TWS pairing and app-based EQ, though it lacks dust protection and advanced codec support.
