The Mix speaker features a built-in carrying handle and a place for a strap, allowing for easy transport. The top-hat mounts enable use with traditional PA pole stands, enhancing versatility for events.

The Bromley 450 carries over its larger sibling's 360-degree audio trickery. Like equivalents from other companies, Marshall's "True Stereophonic 360-degree sound" fools your brain into perceiving more directionality than its form factor allows. Lighting effects ("inspired by '70s stage shows") also carry over from the larger model.

The Tour One M3's blitz of features might be intimidating to some, but these noise cancelers also stand on their own for basic use. The sound performance isn't the best I've heard at their price point, but it's still quite good, with brilliant instrumental separation and enough detail to surface new moments in songs you've heard dozens of times.

The original KEF Muo launched back in 2015 and felt like a turning point in portable hi-fi. Serious, designer Bluetooth speakers from a respected hi-fi brand were rare back then-with only a few brands like Bang & Olufsen and Loewe interested in combining pretty and portable. These early designs were still given the side-eye by most traditional audio.

What's wild about this jump in stamina is that it's disproportionate to the battery's capacity. The Kilburn II ships with a 5,200 mAh cell, while the new model is only about 5% bigger: 5,500 mAh. Clearly, some big efficiencies have been gained.

A dependable portable Bluetooth speaker is one of those essentials you don't realize you need until the moment music is missing. Whether you're hosting friends in your living room, hanging out in the backyard, spending a day at the beach, or heading off on a weekend camping trip, good sound can completely define the mood. Phone speakers sitting in red cups simply don't cut it, and that's where a powerful option like the JBL Boombox 4 earns its place.

I've tested a variety of portable Bluetooth speaker brands over the past two decades. Most of the time, I connected these speakers to my smartphone and streamed music for backyard gatherings, beach outings, drive-in movies, and other events with family and friends. The most common issue I had with these speakers was finding out the hard way that they're dead -- all because I forgot to charge them in advance.

It's rare for Sony's flagship headphones, even slightly outdated models, to receive a big discount. However, the WH-1000XM5 in black or silver is selling at its lowest-ever price today at Adorama when you enter the code JHCE9834 at checkout (it's the last step before placing the order). Originally $399, they're $204.56 - practically half price. According to historic pricing data from CamelCamelCamel, this handily beats the previous best-ever price of $248 near the end of 2025.

They boast clear, vibrant sound that helps bring games, videos, and music to life in a way your monitor and cheaper speakers can only dream of. They stay true to that sound profile even when you crank the volume up, without any distortion or crackling. One of the areas you're compromising on is the bass. A number of our other, more expensive speaker sets include a dedicated subwoofer, which makes a huge difference with those big explosions in your favorite game or movie,

The Soundcore Nebula X1 Pro is too weird to exist. It takes the excellent 4K projector and karaoke microphones from Anker's Nebula X1 and stuffs them inside a powerful five-speaker Google TV party on wheels. It's so absurd that it feels like a gadget fever dream - and I'm here for it. At the heart of this system is the same liquid-cooled, triple-laser, auto-image-correction-everything projector I reviewed last summer.

Unlike Apple's AirPods, the Beats Studio Buds Plus play well with both iOS and Android devices, which is why they're among our favorite wireless earbuds. You don't get every ecosystem perk, but you do get a lot of the essentials. Apple iPhone owners, for example, get hands-free Siri, Find My support, one-step pairing, and Control Center integration. You miss out on AirPods-exclusive features like automatic device switching and spatial audio head-tracking.
