The Soundcore Motion 300 is the kind of product that makes you question why everything else is so expensive. It’s not audiophile (though it has LDAC support), but it sounds very good, has lots of volume, comes with a robust EQ that adapts depending on its positioning, and does all this for a ridiculous price.

You can ask Google Assistant on your Nest Audio, Nest Hub, Google Home, or any other awesome Assistant-powered speaker to play music from your favorite streaming service. But it's also possible to use these devices as traditional Bluetooth speakers and stream music to them directly from your phone or tablet. This is handy when you want to play a locally stored music file or audio clip on the speaker or display, for example, during an internet outage.

Back in 2019, Sonos launched the first Move speaker, packing the sound quality and features to rub shoulders with the best Bluetooth speakers on the market. The hardware had shortcomings, like the short playtime per charge limiting the potential for outdoor use. It has been a few years, and an update was beginning to feel overdue. Now, the Sonos Move 2 is here, and the company has made the product much better than the first generation without changing too much, at least on paper.

Music lovers know that listening to your favorite tunes at any point throughout the day can immediately boost your mood, but it’s even better when you can share that feeling with others. While it’s important to have a great pair of headphones or earbuds for your daily commute and gym workouts, it’s equally important to have a reliable wireless Bluetooth speaker when you're out and about.

Sony is a force to be reckoned with in the hi-fi space, having produced some of the most superb wireless headphones and best-in-class wireless earbuds available today. While its mobile audio products are super popular, don't let those overshadow its larger speaker offerings, like the Sony SRS-RA3000, the more compact version of the Sony SRS-RA5000. This $400 home wireless and Bluetooth speaker might not normally make your shortlist, but at $200, it's an entirely different story.

Summer is just around the corner and that means we're all planning barbecues, backyard parties, and other get-togethers. This year, you can be more prepared than ever with the PartyBox On-The-Go Bluetooth speaker from JBL. We aren't talking about an average, run-of-the-mill wireless speaker here. It's a two-foot wide, 100W party speaker featuring a dynamic light display, a padded shoulder strap with bottle opener, and a wireless microphone. It would normally cost you $350, but right now, it's on sale for just $230.

The sun is shining, the grill is hot, and all you need now is some good music. But you can't play that music on just any portable Bluetooth speaker. No, you need a speaker that pumps out 360-degree sound — one that gets loud, without getting distorted. You need a speaker that won't flinch if a little beer gets splashed on it, or if it gets knocked into the pool, and one that has enough battery power to make it through a long summer day. You need the Boom 3 from Ultimate Ears, and it just so happens to be $40 off right now.

Warmer weather is here, or it's at least on the horizon, meaning it's time to start planning for the spring and summer months. And if any of those plans include hiking, golfing, going to the lake, or hanging out poolside, you're going to want a portable Bluetooth speaker. There are obviously plenty of great options to choose from, but for the activities listed above, you really should consider something like the UE Wonderboom 3. It's waterproof, sounds great for its size, and right now it's on sale for $84.

Most of us have at least one, if not several, portable speakers lying around. Maybe you impulse-bought some small and inexpensive models (we all like a good deal) and are ready for an upgrade. That's fine, because not all Bluetooth speakers are created equally, and the versatile Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 3 is a prime example of that. It has a fun, compact design, impressive sound for its size, and it's made to go anywhere, from poolside to the mountains. Right now, you can pick one up at a nice $20 discount.

Whether you're in a white boy summer or hot girl summer mindset, having a good quality Bluetooth speaker is a must. Sonos, as one of the biggest names in premium audio, has thrown its hat into the portable speaker ring with the Sonos Roam.

Sonos has just revealed its latest speaker, a new portable, Bluetooth-connected model called the Sonos Roam. But, if its $169 price tag didn't make that clear, this is more than just your typical bargain-basement Bluetooth speaker. In addition to the usual battery-powered wireless music experience you'd expect for the category, Sonos promises exceptional audio quality, plenty of features, and integration with the rest of the Sonos ecosystem for those already deeply invested in it.

Sonos speakers are highly regarded, but they don't come cheap. The company's least expensive product is the One SL, a stripped-down model that takes the smart speaker functionality out of the One, and it's still $180. A new leak shows two firsts for Sonos: a speaker designed with throw-it-in-your-backpack portability in mind, and one that's a hair cheaper than anything else it offers.
