2025 Bluetooth Speaker Shortlist

As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

To start things off here, I am very interested in these after testing out a few new options camping this spring and summer. My first experience was with a higher tier level Marshall Stanmore III this spring and I was very impressed with the sound quality and volume level for just a single speaker. This is quite a pricey option even though it did sound great.

At this price point you could go another route with a huge variety of other speakers that offer TWS (True Wireless Stereo) which makes a massive difference. I tried this first with my set of the cheaper #ankersoundcore2 speakers. While these are only 12W, in TWS mode with a pair of speakers with you in the center and if you are in a relatively quiet environment these sound absolutely great at the price point. But now lets get into the list

First place

Small form factor ▼

Anker Soundcore2 - For it's size and price this is an absolute must have. For smaller campsites and especially ones without moving water, these provide excellent sound for more than the advertised 24H in my personal testing. #anker

Large form factor▼

W-KING 270W - This is one of the larger options on the market at roughly 10x10x20, but it makes up for it with advertised #loudestboombox on the market! So if you need to cover a large area in high quality sound this is how to do it. Limited time offer 29% off! #wkingspeakers

Second place

Editors Choice

Medium small form factor ▼

W-King 90W- This is in the second place category only because it is a lower output version of the one listed above. If you want a step up from the #soundcore2 for a reasonable price this is my personal favorite choice. As with all of these it offers TWS (True Wireless Stereo) So you can pair 2 of them for massive stereo sound for around ~$150.

Medium small form factor

Anker Soundcore Boom 2 - This is very similar to the #wking option above, just currently more expensive and slightly lower output but still an excellent speaker depending on your own personal preferences.

Third place

Marshall Stanmore 3 - I have this in third place mainly for the price. It is by far the most expensive option on this list and while it sounds good I personally think you get better value out of the above listings especially since you can buy several and have a proper stereo setup while saving $100+. That being said if you like #marshall products this is an awesome speaker. Exceptional sound and build quality from my several experiences in the mountains with it.

All of these options offer long battery life with several being over 24H. You can use them as a charging station if you wish and even with the largest option, users have reviewed to say the 270W model is easy enough to transport for a 5' tall child, so there really is no hassle or annoyance here given the fact you will be able to play a small concert with them .
