Looking for the best Bluetooth speaker We can help.We've listened to hundreds of these wireless speakers over the years and have put our heads together to form a definitive list of the best ones you can buy.Curious what Bluetooth speakers are all aboutIf you want a quick and easy way to play music around your home or on the go, then nothing beats the convenience of a Bluetooth speaker.Simply charge it up, pair it to your phone, and you'll be able to play your entire music collection wherever you choose.While the latest set of audio cans can do amazing things, they previously offered a weak and tinny sound.
Improvements in Bluetooth technology meant that they're able to offer a very capable audio experience in their own right.
And, better yet, battery capacities have improved such that you can use a Bluetooth speaker for several days on the trot without needing to recharge it.But all of them are well worth a place in your tech arsenal, and with that in mind, here's our list of our top picks for the best Bluetooth speakers around.
Some are rugged, some are stylish, some are weatherproof and some aren't fit for the outdoors - read through and take your pick.1.

It's loud, yet detailed.
Portable, but still incredibly durable.
Plus, even better, the addition of waterproofing turns what used to be the best Bluetooth speaker around for most occasions into the best one for every occasion.If you're deep in the search for your next, or first, Bluetooth speaker, you can stop looking now.

Fugoo StyleA small Bluetooth speaker that raises the bar Weight: 440g | Battery life: Up to 40 hours | Wireless range: 30+ feet | Frequency response: 60Hz -20kHz | Drivers: Two 28mm neodymium tweeters, two 39mm neodymium aluminum domed mid/woofers, two 43mm x 54mm passive radiators | NFC: No | Aux-in: Yes | USB charging: YesAwesome soundAmazing battery lifeNo flaws to noteMeet one of the Bluetooth speaker market's best-kept secrets.
The Fugoo comes in your choice of jacket style (Style, Tough, or Sport), but no matter which one you choose, this speaker is just as suited for the elements as it is to your coffee table.Despite its small size, this option offers surprisingly good sound performance and, get this, up to 40 hours of battery life when listening at medium volume.
We were able to get nearly 20 hours out of it at a high volume.Read the full review: Fugoo3.
JBL Charge 3A near-perfect balance between sound, features and price Weight: 798g | Battery life: 20 hours | Wireless range: 30+ feet | Frequency response: 65Hz 20kHz | Drivers: Two 1.7" drivers and two passive radiators | NFC: No | Bluetooth version: 3.0 | Aux-in: Yes | USB charging: YesKicking bass responseWaterproofExposed woofersAs a package, the JBL Charge 3 offers a compelling set of features and excellent sound quality to boot.
It punches well above its weight, playing it loud and distortion-free.The Charge line of speakers have been on our shortlist of recommendations for a long time and the latest iteration maintains JBL's dominance in the portable Bluetooth speaker market.Read the full review: JBL Charge 34.
Bose SoundLink Mini IISlightly dated, but still one of the best sounding wireless speakersWeight: 667g | Dimensions: 2 x 7.1 x 2.3 inches (H x W x D) | Battery life: Up to 10 hours | Wireless range: 30 ft (10 m) | Frequency response: N/A | Drivers: N/A | NFC: No | Bluetooth version: N/A | Aux-in: Yes | USB charging: NoStellar soundBuilt like a tankCompact form factorNo NFC or multipoint BluetoothThe Bose SoundLink Mini II is relatively ancient, having been released in June 2015.
However, writing off the SoundLink Mini II because of its age would be a mistake, as it remains one of the best sounding wireless speakers.That said, it punches way above what its size would suggest, producing deep bass, sparkling highs and a lush midrange.
While most wireless speakers sound OK, the Mini II proves that small speakers dont need to compromise on sound.Read the full review: Bose SoundLink Mini II5.
UE WonderboomOne of the best-sounding waterproof speakers you can buyWeight: 425g | Dimensions: 102 x 93.5mm (H x D) | Battery life: Up to 10 hours | Wireless range: 100 ft (33 m) | Frequency response: 80 Hz 20 kHz | Drivers: two 40 mm active drivers and two 46.1mm x 65.2mm passive radiators | NFC: No | Bluetooth version: N/A | Aux-in: No | USB charging: No360-degree soundMultipoint pairingWaterproofSlightly confined soundingWhen someone asks us for a recommendation for a waterproof speaker, the UE Roll 2 was always on the top of our list.
We loved the Roll 2s unique form factor, 50-foot wireless range and, obviously, it sounded good, too.
Where it was lacking was in the bass department.Logitech, UEs parent company, has fixed the Roll 2s lack of bass by creating the appropriately named UE Wonderboom.In our eyes, the UE Wonderboom bests the Roll 2 in just about every way except for the Roll 2s handy bungee cord.Still, ignoring that, if youre looking for one of the best waterproof Bluetooth speakers on the market today, its hard to do better than the UE Wonderboom.The UE Wonderboom is still not available in India but we have confirmation about its arrival to the country.
Our global team has tested the device, hence we were sure about putting it on the best Bluetooth speakers' list.Read the full review: UE Wonderboom6.
Creative Muvo 2CThe best budget Bluetooth speakerWeight: 0.35 pounds | Battery life: 6 hours | Wireless range: N/A | Frequency response: N/A | Drivers: 1 x full-range | NFC: No | Aux-in: Yes | Bluetooth version: 4.2 | Weatherproofing: Yes-IP66 | Charges devices over USB: NoFeature-richHas some actual bassBuggy appAdvanced features can be complexThe Creative Muvo 2C is a speaker than punches well above its weight in terms of its sound quality.This tiny Bluetooth speaker is one of the smallest we've seen to pack its own bass radiator, which results in much better dynamic range than many other speakers at this price point.Plus, it's also feature-rich in terms of its inputs, allowing you to play music either over Bluetooth, a 3.5mm jack, USB or even insert a microSD card to play MP3 files directly.Of course, that being said, if you spend more you'll get a more refined sound, better bass still, and a longer battery life.
But if you're looking for a budget speaker than the Muvo 2C is hard to beat at this price.More recently we've reviewed its older sibling the Creative Muvo 2, which could be an option if you want this same functionality in a slightly larger form factor.
However, it doesn't present quite the same value for money as the 2C.Read the full review:Creative Muvo 2C7.
Bose SoundLink Color IIA vibrant Bluetooth speaker that packs impressive sound Weight: 544g | Dimensions: 5.25 x 5 x 2.25 inches (H x W x D) | Battery life: 8 hours | Wireless range: 30 feet | Frequency response: N/A | Drivers: N/A | NFC: No | Aux-in: Yes | Bluetooth version: N/A | Weatherproofing: Yes | Charges devices over USB: NoFun, curvy designBooming soundAverage battery lifeOnly splash-proofIt seems just about every speaker company has a wireless speaker that can take the abuse of being outdoors and Bose, a company most well-known for its brand of excellent noise-canceling headphones, is no different.If youre looking for something from Bose to take with you on your next hike, the SoundLink Color II is the companys only splash-proof speaker that can stand up to the elements with an IPX4 rating.Read the full review: Bose SoundLink Color II8.
Marshall KilburnVintage looks with excellent soundWeight: 3kg | Battery life: Up to 20 hours | Wireless range: N/A | Frequency response: 62 - 20,000Hz | Drivers: two 3/4-inch dome tweeters, one 4-inch woofer | NFC: No | Aux-in: Yes | USB charging: YesBass and treble controlsEarth-pounding bassNo playback controlsNot as portable as competitionThe Marshall Kilburn might not appear to be the best choice in Bluetooth speakers.
Its large, heavy, doesnt have USB charging and isnt waterproof.
Plus, almost Rs 25k is a lot to pay for a Bluetooth speaker.But none of this matters because the Kilburn sounds so darn good.If design and audio performance are your two most important criteria for a Bluetooth speaker and they should be the Kilburn is near perfect.Read the full review: Marshall Kilburn9.
JBL Flip 4A life-friendly speaker that doesn't skimp on soundWeight: 515g | Battery life: Up to 12 hours | Wireless range: 40 feet | Frequency response: 70Hz 20kHz | Drivers: 2 x 40mm | NFC: Yes | Aux-in: Yes | Bluetooth version: 4.2 | Weatherproofing: Yes | Charges devices over USB: NoDecent, rugged designPlenty of bassUnderwhelming mid-range soundSlightly basic looksBringing bluntness over refinement, the JBL Flip 4 is a good Bluetooth speaker for the rugged outdoorsman in your friend circle.
Its rough, tough design makes it perfect as a portable speaker to accompany all aspects of your life without worrying your home audio system.Its all weather friendly design is a win, but a lack of definition and distinction in the mid-range ultimately means its sound quality is not quite up to scratch when compared with some, more high-end portable speakers.Read the full review: JBL Flip 410.
Bose SoundLink RevolveAn excellent 360-degree speaker for the homeWeight: 680g | Battery life: 12 hours | Wireless range: 30ft (10m) | Frequency response: N/A | Drivers: N/A | NFC: Yes | Aux-in: Yes | Bluetooth version: N/A | Weatherproofing: No | Charges devices over USB: NoTrue 360-degree soundBeautiful design and buildOnly 30ft (10m) rangeCharging dock not includedThe Bose SoundLink Revolve is an excellent sounding speaker for users looking for the true 360-degree sound.
Its great for sharing music during a party or for moving around the room without losing audio fidelity.It continues the companys history of excellent build quality and sound and crams it all into a cylindrical speaker you can take with you on the go.On the debit side, though, its also not fully dust or waterproof so youll want to think twice before bringing the Revolve to the beach.Read the full review: Bose SoundLink RevolveNote: Not all the speakers listed here are tested by India team.
Some of them have been recommended by our global team, but all of them are available in India.YhcDRegeuSU9NGSYhK7XES.jpg#
