Short answer: the Dayton Audio Boost Mini for a slightly lower price, though neither is a bass speaker. At $19.98 versus $21.99, the Dayton is quite light for the performance, with mids slightly boosted and highs a little rolled off. The Xiaomi Mi Portable Mini counters with IP67 waterproofing, TWS pairing, Bluetooth 5.0, a 0.4 lbs (185 g) body, 10-hour battery life and a bass boost equalizer, but its bass is also limited and its treble rolled off.
Buy the Dayton Audio Boost Mini. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Xiaomi Mi Portable Mini and costs less, so it is the default pick unless a specific strength of the other one matters more to you.
