I’m sure if you bought a $100 Bose speaker the sound quality would be better, but honestly the sound quality on this is pretty good. The volume gets nice and loud, connectivity was super simple, and the ease of use is great. The color options are cool and the lights are a really nice touch.Battery life has impressed me too—I haven’t even charged it since taking it out of the box and I’ve already used it a good 4–5 hours. Overall, great value for money and solid reliability so far." — Molly PotilloAltec LansingA light-weight and waterproof speaker that can float in a poolRating: 4.4 out of 5 starsNot every good speaker costs hundreds of dollars. Altec Lansing's Mini H20 is just $20 and hold its own against other options on this list. Promising review: "I have much bigger JBL and a Bose portable waterproof speakers. However, my girls are now teens and want to listen to different music when my family of 4 kayaks. So, I bought 2 of these, not expecting to be impressed considering the price. WOW!!! What a great mini speaker for the price. They are very loud for this size. I would say the only real difference between the expensive name brands is the bass. It's not going to hit like Bose, but the sound is still great! Very impressed!" — bethanysheaAmazonA JBL Clip 4 you can hang anywhereRating: 4.8 out of 5 starsA small speaker that packs a punch, the JBL Clip 4 is a longtime HuffPost fave.
