Short answer: the LG Xboom Stage 301, though both have flaws. It ranks #33 of 90 boombox speakers against the Boomster NG (2017)’s #53 of 90. The Teufel is neutral sounding with a removable battery, but its bass is not as deep as others in the category, its bass port can make noise and it has no water rating; the LG is overpriced and its frequency response is not the greatest.
Buy the LG Xboom Stage 301. It is rated higher for sound quality and still sold new, while the Teufel Boomster NG (2017) is discontinued.
If battery life is a priority, the Teufel Boomster NG (2017) is rated for 18 hours versus 12 hours for the LG Xboom Stage 301.
Water resistance is not close: the LG Xboom Stage 301 is rated at IPX4 (splashing), well ahead of the Teufel Boomster NG (2017) at no water resistance.
