The Sonos Roam 2 is the better-sounding, lighter pick. A small Wi-Fi and Bluetooth speaker with water resistance, Alexa built in and Sonos multiroom support.

The Tribit Stormbox Mini+ is the tougher choice. An inexpensive waterproof speaker packed with features, including app EQ, an aux input, microSD playback and stereo pairing. It is rated IPX7 against IPX5 for the Sonos Roam 2. It keeps a wired aux input, which the Sonos Roam 2 lacks. It plays in stereo from a single unit, unlike the Sonos Roam 2. Watch for: Not a great sounding speaker, really weak bass.
