These are not really the same size class, and that is the honest framing here. The EarFun Uboom L ranks #2 of 179 medium speakers by sound quality at $49.79; the Xdobo X8 Max ranks #88 of 120 large speakers by sound quality at $105.99.
The EarFun Uboom L is the lighter option. A great value medium speaker with clear, natural sound, waterproofing, and a Video Mode that keeps audio in sync with video. At 1.4 lbs (650 g) it weighs much less than the Xdobo X8 Max at 6.3 lbs (2.86 kg). It supports AAC Bluetooth, which the Xdobo X8 Max lacks. It has an adjustable EQ, which the Xdobo X8 Max lacks. The tradeoff: It cannot produce real low-bass rumble or fill a large, noisy space, and the top end loses some detail.
The case for the Xdobo X8 Max: A feature packed waterproof boombox with a huge battery, power bank output, and enough volume for outdoor background music. The tradeoff: The voicing is bass-heavy with thin, boosted highs that can turn harsh, and reviews report distortion rather than clean dynamics when pushed hard.
Buy the EarFun Uboom L ($49.79) for a medium speaker; the Xdobo X8 Max ($105.99) suits a large speaker instead.
