Speaking of the latter, while it might seem that most wireless speaker on the market are a “dime-a-dozen,” there are still many that stand out thanks to a great combination of sound quality, pricing, as well as overall features. With that in mind, we’ve put together this list of some of the best Bluetooth speakers that you can get in 2025 based on category—let’s check them out!
The 5 Best Bluetooth Speakers of 2025
Editor’s Choice: JBL Charge 6
Output: 45 watts | Connectivity: Bluetooth, Auracast | Battery: Up to 24 hours playtime | Design: IP68 rated for dust and water protection | Special features: AI Sound Boost
The JBL Charge 6 gets our top pick largely in part to its versatility—it’s got powerful sound delivery with a deep bass sound and crisp-sounding highs, and even comes with JBL’s AI-powered Sound Boost option, which can analyze whatever you’re playing and automatically adjust the mix to reduce distortion. It’s also got impressive battery endurance with up to 24 hours of playtime on a single charge, with an added feature to squeeze four more hours for a bit more playtime.
In addition to its built-in Bluetooth support, the Charge 6 also allows users to stereo pair two Charge 6 speakers for a larger sound stage, and even connect multiple Auracast-capable JBL speakers. It also comes with a sturdy build, and JBL claims that it can withstand accidental drops from up to one meter in height. There’s an included strap though, which makes handling it easier. Finally, it’s also fairly portable, and while it’s larger than most other portable speakers, it does make up for it with its amazing sound quality.
Best Karaoke Speaker: Soundcore Rave 3S
Output: 200 watts | Connectivity: Bluetooth, Auracast | Battery: Up to 12 hours playtime | Design: IPX4 rated for splash protection | Special features: 2 included wireless microphones, built-in lighting system, AI voice removal
If there’s one thing that’s never gone out of style, it’s karaoke—yes, the age-old tradition of belting out shamelessly in front of friends and family has remained steadfast through the years, and it’s only gotten infused with more technology. Take for example the Anker Soundcore Rave 3S, which earns our pick as the best choice for karaoke parties.
With a powerful 200W output and up to 12 hours of battery, the Rave 3S comes bundled with a pair of wireless microphones, and an AI-based vocal removal function which can turn pretty much any song into a backing track of sorts. It also features a built-in lighting system that adds a bit of welcome ambience for parties, and while it’s large it’s not too heavy, allowing it to be easily placed wherever needed.
Best Compact Speaker: UE Wonderboom 4
Output: 10 watts | Connectivity: Bluetooth | Battery: Up to 14 hours playtime | Design: IP67 rated for dust and water protection | Special features: 360-degree sound, pair with up to two Wonderboom 4 (or 3) speakers
We know what you’re thinking—”but what about the Miniroll?” Yes, it’s true that the Wonderboom 4 is not the most “portable” speaker within Ultimate Ears’ lineup, but it comes with traits that are missing on the Miniroll, such as a more powerful bass, 360-degree sound, and multi-device pairing which lets you pair up two speakers for a more powerful listening experience.
It’s ideal for trips to the beach thanks to its IP67 dust and water protection, meaning that it will be mostly safe from sand or splashes. Its battery can also last for up to 14 hours, which we reckon is probably around the same time that most folks spend at the beach.
Best Affordable Option: JBL Go 4
Output: 3 watts | Connectivity: Bluetooth, Auracast | Battery: Up to 7 hours playtime | Design: IP67 rated for dust and water protection | Special features: Playtime boost adds a couple more hours of battery
At just around 50 bucks, the JBL Go 4 manages to keep things relatively affordable without compromising too much on sound quality. Part of JBL’s long-running Go series of speakers, the GO 4 retains the line’s best features, such as a super-portable design, a rugged build (with IP67 dust and water protection), and decent sound quality for the price.
As for endurance, the JBL GO 4’s battery can last for up to seven hours of playtime on a single charge, and JBL has also included a “Playtime Boost” feature that can add a couple more hours of battery life, if you’re ever in a pinch and simply need to listen to more music.
Best High-end Speaker: Marshall Stanmore III
Output: 80 watts | Connectivity: Bluetooth, Auracast, wired AUX and RCA | Battery: Needs wired power supply | Design: IP67 rated for dust and water protection | Special features: Finetuned EQ via physical controls/app
Last but not the least is the Marshall Stanmore III—while Marshall is more known for its guitar amps, the company has since branched out to include more products under its belt, including headphones and speakers like the Stanmore III. As far as design goes, the speaker comes with a premium design and build, with a rather “classic” feel to it.
Marshall says that it’s designed the Stanmore III with a more powerful soundstage compared to its predecessor, and there’s also support for wired connectivity via 3.5mm cables or RCA connections. One caveat though is that the speaker does not come with with its own battery supply, and you’ll need to keep it plugged in.
