Short answer: the Onn Large Party gen 2 on both price and party features. The Hyperboom pairs dual 4.5-inch woofers and tweeters with adaptive bass compensation and dual Bluetooth pairing for a 24-hour battery, but our notes describe it as expensive for what it does, with dull, muddy sound and less bass than the JBL Partybox 100. The Onn costs far less with karaoke mic and guitar inputs and wheels of its own, though Consumer Reports found its own bass boomy and treble smeared.

Buy the Onn Large Party gen 2 for the much lower price and more party-oriented features like karaoke inputs and wheels. Buy the Ultimate Ears Hyperboom only if its compact square design and dual-device pairing specifically appeal to you.
There is a real battery-life gap here: the Ultimate Ears Hyperboom is rated for 24 hours, the Onn Large Party gen 2 only 12 hours.
If water resistance matters to you, the Onn Large Party gen 2 at IPX4 (splashing) holds up far better than the Ultimate Ears Hyperboom at no water resistance.
