Short answer: the Ultimate Ears Everboom. It ranks #35 of 115 large speakers by sound quality, rated 3.9/5, at $149.99; the Devialet Mania ranks #52, rated 3.6/5, and costs $899, so there is little reason to consider the other one.
The case for the Devialet Mania: A compact, good looking Wi-Fi and Bluetooth stereo speaker with Alexa built in and splash resistance. It plays in stereo from a single unit, unlike the Ultimate Ears Everboom. Watch for: Not very loud.
The Ultimate Ears Everboom is the longer-running, lighter option. A light, waterproof speaker that plays in every direction, with warm sound, a long battery and linking with many speakers. It is rated for 20 hours of battery against 10 for the Devialet Mania. At 2.1 lbs (949 g) it weighs much less than the Devialet Mania at 5.1 lbs (2.3 kg). It is rated IP67 against IPX4 for the Devialet Mania. The catch: Careful placement and volume setting remain important for balanced sound.
Buy the Ultimate Ears Everboom. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Devialet Mania and costs less, so it is the default pick unless a specific strength of the other one matters more to you.
