I love the wonderboom!
Good review no lie ๐๐ฌ๐พ
Thank you for this review, Jeremy. Iโm debating between the Wonderboom 2 and the Bose Flex because of size and weight constraints. Your review gave me some good things to think about. I just got my first kayak, and go out on rivers and lakes a lot. Purely on sound quality outdoors alone, would you say these two are fairly evenly matched, or does one clearly have a better sound than the other?
Mi favorita es la Bose.
r they all smart devices though?
Great review, greater shirt
No Earfun UBOOM L… So much for an ‘Ultimate guide’
none of these hold a candle to the sexy speaker
what’s the best playlist for testing by speakers?
Great video ๐
JBL is king ๐ช
Jbl is mono tho
Awesome presentation
JBL would be my pick too with that phone charging option.
I bought a UE Boom 2 years ago based off recommendation and haven’t needed to buy anything else since.
Interesting seeing the technology changing so quickly and am excited to see what I will replace it with some day.
Thanks for the upload.

rufio! rufio! rufio!
Tiny Bose is the real boss
I have 4 Wonderboom 2’s. It’s so durable, solid sound outdoors, and very waterproof. When I’m playing it at the pool, I’ll pretend I hate a song, and launch my Wonderboom into the pool, to the dismay of my guests. When I take it out and its still playing, the look on their faces is priceless. Lol. It’s also such a perfect size for travel!
Whatโs with all the dumb facial expressions and miming ? Makes a fair review seem infantile and distracts from the information. And ditch the piercings while youโre at it. This is supposed to be a professional review.
The jbl speaker is my top fave I have the flip5 gonna get the 6 this week
This man is so attractive ๐๐ฅต๐ค
fantastic
I live in island and do a lot water sports. I recommend do not buy Bose flex. Mine just stoped working after around 10 months, as the unprotected charging port can be so easily corroded.
Very helpful
Brian Tong 2.0
I thought I saw the Sonos in one take there and was waiting for itโs quick review
dude. it’s TREBLE. NOT TREMBLE. LOL. I’m shocked a "professional" would make such a rookie mistake.
Did we just missed Marshall ยฉ
ฤฐs there anyone who has stormbox 2 without an issue after long use? Thanks in advance.
I have the Flip 5. Very loud and portable speaker
Great video, infotainment to the max. What a fun in the sun version of a review.
Who is the man!?
8:44 "… What would you pick?"
IDK because you didn’t even mention the Watts on them, or which ones have tweeters or which ones have AUX/USB/SD or or etc…
Probably none really. Did you even mention *W-King?* Good, affordable, waterproof speakers that are rich in features. How did _W-King_ not even make the list?
dude it trying too hard to be the Apple Byte host .. oh dear.
I feel sorry for this guy a bit – if when playing a song using a portable speaker he’s hearing sounds he’s never heard before, that seems to suggest his home speakers and headphones are all garbage!
Anker Motion+ or boom official site ( price down 10-20-30% only .. 1 mouth ~ price so down for 2-3 days only watching )! Price JBL baying 2 or 3 Anker speaker’s!
You’re gonna have to rein it in a little, dawg. Quirky is cool, but there’s a limit. Sold review though.
I’m owning Charge 5
Anything with Aux ? ๐
The wonderboom for a few people by the pool. The motion boom for a little party or the pub and the motion boom + for a party of 20 + People. It’s as simple as that. All sound awesome. Turn it up !!! ๐๐๐
Ayyy… Mac Dre.

Finally pulled the trigger on 2 SoundLink Flex in Carmine Red. The new color and reduced price, and my positive experience with a SoundLink Micro, I’m looking forward to trying them out.
