Short answer: the Soundboks Mix for IP65 protection and TeamUp linking, the Onn Large Party gen 2 for karaoke at a much lower price. The Mix has a swappable battery with USB-C fast charging, IP65 dust and water resistance and TeamUp linking with up to five other speakers, though its single 10-inch woofer and 72W output are less powerful than the Soundboks Go or 4, with no mic input for karaoke. The Onn costs far less and does include karaoke mic and guitar inputs, though Consumer Reports found its bass boomy and treble smeared.
