Short answer: the JBL Flip 6. It ranks #13 of 182 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 4.2/5, at $114.95. The Oontz Angle 3 Ultra ranks #166, rated 2.2/5, at $39.99, $74.96 cheaper, which does not close the gap in sound quality.
The JBL Flip 6 is the better-sounding, deeper-bass pick. A small, rugged speaker with very neutral sound for its size, an excellent choice for most people. Its bass reaches about 56Hz before falling 10dB, against 90Hz for the Oontz Angle 3 Ultra. Watch for: Some slight upper mids emphasis.
The Oontz Angle 3 Ultra is the longer-running, lighter pick. A cheap, very light waterproof speaker with a long battery and plenty of features for the money. It is rated for 20 hours of battery against 12 for the JBL Flip 6. At 0.9 lbs (400 g) it weighs noticeably less than the JBL Flip 6 at 1.2 lbs (544 g). It keeps a wired aux input, which the JBL Flip 6 lacks. Watch for: Very little bass with horrible upper bass thud at higher levels.
Buy the JBL Flip 6. It is rated higher for sound quality, and saving $74.96 with the Oontz Angle 3 Ultra does not make up for the sound-quality gap.
