oh-ho-ho-ho-ho welcome yeah no sorry I have to remove this beard yeah I hope everything is gone now and as it's so close to Christmas I thought this time I would like to do a best of low-budget portable bluetooth speaker video I know that not everyone is willing to pay for 500 or even more dollars for a speaker like that but there are lots of offerings below hundred dollars which are still pretty decent so perfect for a Christmas present or even for yourself if you are on a budget of course I can only recommends because that I heard and tested by myself there are lots of fact or bestseller speakers that I haven't heard and I would rather avoid recommending them as we've seen from some previous videos and although I already covered these speakers in some previous videos I would like to cover them again at once here to give you a better overview about what is decent I also added links to for buying the speakers in the description of the video of course prices may be different now when you watch this video but let's maybe start with the cheapest one this is the TDK a 25 it's not the newest speaker therefore the price is a bit low you can get it for $25 and I think for this price is really one of the best if you compare it to some ones me3 which sounds like like some tinny I don't know Twitter this has some really full-bodied nice mature sound it's not very loud but still for twenty-five dollars one of the best you can get let's try maybe the smallest which is close to being pocketable and for that size is definitely one of the best because I've heard this is the Xiaomi me the cheapest price I saw was on gearbest for $35 you can repeatedly find some offerings at this price usually it goes for 38 up to 40 dollars if you buy it directly from Amazon it goes for I think 50 $60 still definitely worth the price it has decayed playback and a really mature sound at low levels it sounds definitely better and more balanced than the PDK it can also play just as loud although it cannot pick this punch as it's so small but definitely better than any other small speaker I've heard yeah the next one currently I think it goes for $30 this is the taotronics parsecs it's a nicely sounding speaker at high levels it packs some really serious punch but at low levels it sounds a little bit tinny so definitely worse than the Xiaomi depends what you like if you like lower levels or high levels at higher levels this shines and it plays pretty loud involved with some slight compression kicking in during the last volume steps next one in this list is the I sound bar or SL thousand I something I don't know currently this is the newer model is the key K err thousand but it's still exactly the same I didn't notice any differences and the speaker is not without issues if you get a great unit it's really decent especially the 3d mode it has which opens the sound completely it has some nice decent bass really great sound sounds way bigger than many other speakers but not suitable for high levels it can play loud but with some distortion so on and also notice that when you switch through the modes it has a normal mode that bass mode and the 3d mode the 3d mode sometimes sounds completely different so try switching several times and you will notice that sometimes the 3d mode sounds great other times it sounds off I have three or four copies of this I even have one which looks a bit like a wooden speaker but this is not real boot rather yeah some some plastic sticker I don't know and the wooden one has even more bass it distorts it half level so I don't know it's not perfect you'd really need to get a great copy the cheapest price I found for this KF thousand kr thousand was $33 on Aliexpress I think but maybe you should try one of the more expensive ones maybe they have better quality control I'm not sure so what else we have this is an oldie this is the clip geek it was released three years ago but still really decent it has no bass boost at low levels but really a nicely balanced not perfect sound but pretty punchy legs that will be treble so you can add a little bit with EQ maybe also great battery life one problem is you always have to be selected from your Bluetooth list it doesn't automatically reconnect when you turn it on also this strange cover I don't know it's useless but it's a nice speaker that you can currently get for around 450 for maybe $60 really great speaker for that what do we have here yeah the bubble room 20 I think it sounds a bit better than the clip the first unit when I did my first video about it I think this had some issues it was not okay it had some self discharging this new unit I have here doesn't have these problems anymore it was a sounds better with better treble a little bit less bass also no bass boost for low levels so for all levels I think it sounds more tinny than this show me me but at normal listening levels you get really some nice bass punch way better than the taotronics although it cannot play as loud and starts to distort as there is no compression like on many bose speakers which start to compress dynamics and so on but a really nice hi-5 sounding speaker for my taste it lacks a little bit of bass at low levels but you can easily adjust it with some equalizer just add some bass boost and it should be fine I really like it a lot then we have the Blitz Wolff f1 here no this is the f4 this is available from different brands also as X power or easyacc I think the little has the best features included also nice bass boost at low levels not perfectly sounding I think the X power sounds a little bit better but it doesn't have bass boost for low level so it sounds again tinny even worse than the volume but the blitz wolf has this all so you have to try it out I saw that this easyacc which is looking exactly the same had some issues there was some buzzing I think there is another unit from piece Evo which is available on UK store from Amazon I haven't heard that one but I think it's also similar you just have to try it out the Blitz wolf is that is nice performer not perfect there are some tribal issues but it's a nice all-rounder for around 50 for $59 yen then we have the popular and I don't know famous anchor premium yeah $59 I think or $50 depends this speaker is also available from other brands with a little bit different tuning may be the gem heavy metal the fitting Royale are they all are based around the same drivers with the same basic radius and so on just a lil bit tunic and a different hole the anchor is maybe not the best sounding out of these but the current units don't have any issues no artifacts at low levels also don't distort as much as the other ones the other ones have so much base books that at higher levels when you'll get some some kicks they start to fart and so on the anchor does this as well but not to such a strong degree so depends you might even try the taotronics boom X which is even cheaper but the unit I tried had some issues at low level so they were definitely artifacts it was not usable for all levels their anchor doesn't do this it's not perfect it would need some EQ to really shine and come closer to the others but the basics is the same as with all the others because yeah what else we have here flip three JBL flip read one of their ya best all-rounder still currently the price went down a little bit so you can get it for $79 in Germany some setter and stores headed for 59 euros so really recommended speaker maybe not as great sounding or refined as the volume 20 but still a better round as it can play louder does not distort it's also rugged waterproof or water-resistant a really nice speaker that I still recommend a lot and yeah it's nothing special but simply doesn't have any any flaws except maybe the well compounds like boom so yeah the Libra tone 2 is maybe not the best sounding speaker was not the loudest definitely softer than their flick 3 but I still like it a lot currently you can get it below hundred dollars for I think 99 it has a great 360 degree sound dispersion great battery life at maximum way more than 12 or 12 hours which is impressive I like it to be taken in a rucksack or something you have it there for hiking and it plays music really really nice but the sound is maybe not perfect it could get along with a bit more bass or so treble is a bit harsh but when you have it on your back it's it becomes okay again and thanks for the 360 degrees on this version you get a better sound than for example a free 3 which gets a little bit lost due to the more directional sound yeah this is the music sound cuff only available on beg good currently if for $50 usual prices 59 it's not perfect it has some travel issues sounds maybe a bit muffled but has also nice 360-degree sound half the price of the Libra tone 2 also pretty loud louder I think it's a nice speaker yeah not the best but definitely recommended here we have the soundbot SB 525 which goes for 39 or 40 dollars it was already offered for 35 it looks like a JBL charge - in reality it's a copy of a JBL charge 3 sound wise but it has some travel issues as well so not as loud as they charge 3 but similar bass punch and you may like it it definitely shines with some addition of EQ with some some treble boost and so on yeah this is an oldie but Goldy the TDK track max a 34 I bought this for 55 euros new currently it's not listed anywhere but you should find it below 100 dollars the only issue the speaker has is maybe battery life at high levels it will reduce volume after 15-20 minutes but it's still a very nice sounding was a powerful one of the loudest here yeah great rugged nice speaker and an evergreen let's say yeah then I have here the Sony HD one I added it here because you can currently find it as refurbished for $99 on Amazon it was already offered for 79 refurbished and I think for this price it's definitely the best here I mean it has lots of features included like Wi-Fi you can you have Spotify connect deal and a streaming it has even Google cast and everything and it sounds decent with a little bit help of a cue so if you add some treble and bass you get a pretty balanced sound also nice bass boost for low levels problem is here at higher levels it starts to compress a lot you get an over processed sound like typical for most solid speakers so definitely not for high levels but all of these smaller speakers are not that great for high level listening these are rather meant for yeah for indoor listening for nice levels except maybe the TDK this music also pretty loud the flip 3 but all the others are rather they follow a part at Highlands then here the rear is currently offered for $99 this for this price it's really a steal although I think the sony is a better deal because of the way more features also charging is done through microUSB while you need yeah appropriately charger for the rear is it sounds better at high levels than the Sony doesn't compress at all but still I think the sony is a little bit better if you can get it for $99 even as is refurbished I think it's worth it yeah I would have liked to include the bass boom as well unfortunately I got the info that it won't be released anymore so you won't be able to buy it on Amazon anymore but another company will come out with a speaker like that similar one maybe even the same one but with another brand name I have no details when this will be the case and what the name will be but the bass Puma is shown in my video yeah doesn't exist anymore you can buy it directly from them with some edit shipping but the $99 price you had on Amazon yeah it's not valid anymore so maybe let's wait for the successor there is the shockwave and some other speakers which look similar or even the same I really cannot say anything about them I haven't heard them they are similar to the bass Puma but I heard that the shark has some issues yeah distortion issues the bass BMO doesn't have them it's really now it has some heavy bass so if you like basically music yeah maybe let's wait for the successor model of course I will tell you them which one how it's called and so on yeah and let's bet at least we have the Archie a320 it's a bit bigger but also you can get it for below $100 sometimes even $70 the only thing you have to do is really stuff the port with something here close it because otherwise you get this fighting it sounds better with the port closed and although not balanced it has a really basic tuning some liked it more than the bass Puma I I yeah I mean I like it but I prefer a more balanced sound so for example like the Sonia here or the device but it's definitely a nice speaker some nice stereo enhancing yeah then yeah what else we could include I mean the Onyx to do there the older versions you could maybe get them for below hundred dollars or close to 100 definitely a great speaker maybe not as portable as it's huge and and battery life is crap but yeah it's a great speaker what else not sure I don't have them but there are definitely some other recommended speakers below hundred dollars which I don't know the creative for or two but I think for normal use the Sony sounds way better I compared the Sony with the I roll go and for normal levels I prefer the Sony it has better bass nice a treble the arrow goes sounds a bit yeah a bit muffled although it can play way louder its place yeah louder than the bass boomer but yeah it's also more expensive so you have to pay a toll to pay hundred seventy up to two hundred dollars so I think below hundred dollars these are definitely one of the best I've found maybe there are other ones that I haven't heard I don't know from those those bows no dos I haven't heard any speaker from them some are raving about it also the shark what's the name I don't know there is one it's called masked boy there are some again the same speaker off at other different brand names for $50 lots of great raving reviews but I haven't heard it so I cannot say anything maybe it's decent maybe not but these with some flaws definitely recommended if I had to choose and yeah one I would maybe choose the show me me especially the new version doesn't distort anymore and it's a great sound for normal levels you really have the impression of if as if you already simple sums or some way larger speaker but as an overall winner maybe the Sony HD one maybe I raved a little bit too much about this peak in my previous video but it costs 250 euros not $99 for 250 you can find way better speakers but 490 $100 this is very decent I compared it a little bit with the Bose Soundlink mini it also has this extra bass button which boosts pace a lot that you even get some distortion at low levels but even with extra bass it still sounded way better than the boss nice a travel nice a definition of sound similar compression that both compresses as well but the Sony overall did a much better job for way less money and with way more features so Sony and show me me would be probably the my my picks here yeah volume is really great I'm really only missing some bass boost at lower levels and at high levels it starts to distort a little bit early maybe but still a really great and balanced filmed speaker yeah and this was it choose one that you like most I really cannot recommend you the best one because each of them has some some advantages or some flaws I told you I really know the Xiaomi as you can put it into a pocket the CL and walk around go hiking and no traveling it's charged through microUSB so you don't need an additional charging unit but I also like the liberal tone to or hiking as I simply put it into my rucksack crank it up to maximum it will still play for the whole day and the sound doesn't fall apart at high levels there is no distortion no compression really really nice yeah I think this was it I hope you like this I hope I could give you an overview of course all of these speakers are edit within my database please check this out you can compare them all to each other I updated the show-me me because the old unit I had had some distortion at this particular level I'm usually recording them this one sounds way cleaner although the rock track and jazz still distort a little bit but this is already a level closer to maximum on the show-me standard volume or standard volume is a little bit higher so this is really for serious music listening if you want to sit down and crank the speak a bit higher I also updated the I sound band with the with this new unit here it sounds a little bit cleaner maybe but it's still not perfect so they really need to have better quality control although for $33 I mean what do you expect I've heard speakers for 33 or even more dollars that sound way worse this for low levels I prefer it even over the the leakage or even when I compared it to the FIFA Oslo I mean this is a pure hi-fi this is really it cannot be any better but this cost five or four hundred fifty dollars while you can get this for 33 so still impressive what they achieved with some clever DSP processing yeah I wish everyone a Merry Christmas not sure if I will manage to do some further videos if we yeah if this is my last video of this year then I wish you a Happy New Year as well I hope I can manage something else maybe something you will will appear there are some interesting speakers on the horizon I don't tell you now but when I have them I can hopefully tell you more about it until then yeah thanks a lot for watching enjoy Christmas have a nice Fiesta fest hello Alyce scooter choose a path and see by you
