Short answer: the JBL Flip 6. It ranks #13 of 182 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 4.2/5, at $114.95. The Ortizan X10 ranks #165, rated 2.2/5, at $29.97, $84.98 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 64Hz for the Ortizan X10. It charges over USB-C rather than Micro USB. The catch: Some slight upper mids emphasis.
The Ortizan X10 is the longer-running choice. A cheap waterproof speaker with colorful LED lighting, a long rated battery and stereo pairing. It is rated for 30 hours of battery against 12 for the JBL Flip 6. It keeps a wired aux input, which the JBL Flip 6 lacks. It plays in stereo from a single unit, unlike the JBL Flip 6. The tradeoff: Not much bass, very rolled off treble.
Buy the JBL Flip 6. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $84.98 you would save on the Ortizan X10 does not close the gap.
