Short answer: the JBL Flip 6, unless you need the lanyard. The Flip 6 is very neutral and almost pocket size, though it is not stereo. The Tronsmart T7 Lite is IPX7 rated and light at 1 lbs (470 g) with a carry lanyard, but it is hugely lacking bass compared to similar size speakers.
Buy the JBL Flip 6. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the Tronsmart T7 Lite is discontinued, so it is only available used.
