Best of the best

If you want a full,
punchy sound that’s
fairly expansive, and
that doesn’t crush
when going loud,
then this is the place
to start. It’s also an
object of desire, and
is available in a great
range of colours.

AUDIO PRO ADDON C3

A super-portable
speaker with Wi-Fi
streaming for higher
quality and multi-
room, with Bluetooth
for total convenience.
It’s a stunner, especially
if you can avoid using
Audio Pro’s quite
crappy app.

£178, electricshop.com


BOSE PORTABLE SMART SPEAKER

One of the best
portable speakers
money can buy.
Connect it to
Wi-Fi for Alexa or
Google Assistant
functionality, or use
it over Bluetooth, for
powerful, accurate,
360-degree sound.

£379.95, bose.co.uk


ULTIMATE EARS WONDERBOOM 2

The Wonderboom 2
doesn’t really try to
straddle home and
outdoors: it’s clearly
meant to be taken to
wherever the party is.
It’s waterproof, and
well protected against
grit, dust and beach-
side sand.

£78, amazon.co.uk


SONY WH- 1000 XM4

The new kings may be
beaten on individual

detailed mid-range.
Being comfortable
and light helps too.

£330, sony.co.uk

SONY WH-CH510

While you may not

remarkable quality for
something so cheap.
30mm drivers deliver
sound that’s powerful
and upfront.

AUDIO-TECHNICA

M50XBT2

Long battery life and
sound that’s closer
to the more neutral
tones of hi-fi cans
(though still with
a slight extra kick
of bass), plus great
comfort levels, make
these ideal for losing
yourself in music.

£179, audio-technica.com

JBL TUNE 660NC

JBL does great
work at bringing big
sound to affordable
packages. If you’re
looking for a
comfortable option
that offers great
detail in your music,
and are heavy on the
bass, they’re ideal.

£90, jbl.com

Powerful and crisp
with a great level of
detail, you won’t find

With effective noise-
cancelling and battery
life of up to 48 hours
with the case, the T1s
are a winner.

£249, philips.com

NOKIA BH-2 05 LITE

Cheap and cheerful,
as you’dexpect,

well-balanced, and
doesn’t feel like
you’re missing out on
anything. Solid audio
and long battery life.

£40, nokia.com

with the very best.

The latest version of

quite the upgrade.
