Best Desktop Bluetooth Speakers
Marshall Acton
The Marshall Acton might be the best-looking speaker on our list. It has a cool retro vibe going on. In terms of audio, it’s well-balanced with powerful deep bass. You can even adjust the bass and treble with the knobs on the top. It supports Bluetooth as well as RCA and Optical input. The speaker comes in Black and Cream colors.
Anker SoundCore
Anker is one of the most well-known manufacturers of affordable tech products. The Anker SoundCore is very highly rated Bluetooth speaker with incredible 24-hour battery life. The Bluetooth range is a very impressive 66-feet, plus it has a mic in case you get a call while connected.
Best Portable Bluetooth Speakers
Bose SoundLink
Bose is one of the leaders in excellent sound quality. The SoundLink is one of their most portable Bluetooth speakers. It has the clear sound you expect from a Bose speaker in a compact size. It offers up to 8 hours of music before recharging, and voice prompts make it super easy to pair with your phone. The SoundLink comes in 5 colors to choose from.
Cambridge SoundWorks
The Cambridge SoundWorks is the #1 best seller for portable Bluetooth speakers on Amazon. That got our attention. Not only is it super compact and portable, but it’s also water resistant. It has high-quality crystal clear sound that users love. This is also one of the cheapest speakers on our list.
Logitech X300
One of the most stylish speakers on our list is the Logitech X300. This is a portable speaker with a compact and unique design. It features big, easy to press buttons, Bluetooth connectivity up to 30 feet, and a mic to take calls. The speaker comes in 4 unique colors to highlight the design.
Best Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker
UE BOOM 2
The UE BOOM 2 is the successor to one of the most popular speakers on the market. The fact that it’s portable and waterproof is the cherry on top. It features a cylindrical design that blasts audio out in 360-degrees. The BOOM 2 has Google Now voice integration so you can use your voice to control it. Battery life is around 15 hours. It comes in a variety of colors. Pay attention to the fact that “waterproof” doesn’t mean you can thoroughly enjoy it underwater. In the article How to Choose the Right Waterproof Headphones for Swimming we explained why it would be a bad idea
UE ROLL
If the BOOM 2 is more than you need, the UE ROLL is a more compact waterproof speaker. The unique disc-like shape makes it super easy to throw in a bag or hook on to something with the bungee cord. It’s waterproof for up to 30 minutes under 1 meter. The ROLL comes in 6 stylish colors.
Best Cheap Bluetooth Speaker
Amazon Basics Speaker
If you just want a decent and cheap speaker, the Amazon Basics portable Bluetooth speaker is a great deal.
