Short answer: the Tribit PocketGo on price and low-end reach. At $22.99 against the P2’s $170, it has a fuller low end than the JBL Go 5, even if that JBL sounds clearer and more typically JBL. Its battery life is not the biggest for the class, and the P2 still wins on sheer bass output for its size without distorting at volume.
Buy the Tribit PocketGo if you want one new; the B&O Beoplay P2 is discontinued, so only look for it used.
If water resistance matters to you, the Tribit PocketGo at IP68 (extended submersion) holds up far better than the B&O Beoplay P2 at no water resistance.
