Short answer: the Sony SRS-XE200 on measured sound quality, the DOSS Soundbox Pro on price, though neither ranks well in its class. The Sony SRS-XE200 ranks #146 of 179 medium speakers, rated 2.5/5, at $69.99. The DOSS Soundbox Pro ranks #171, rated 2.1/5, at $29.99, $40 cheaper. Both are rated below 3.0/5 among the 179 medium speakers; for better sound, the EarFun Uboom L ranks #2 at $49.79.
The Sony SRS-XE200 is the better-sounding pick. A waterproof speaker with simple dedicated buttons, fast charging, and a shape that can prop up a phone or tablet. It charges over USB-C rather than Micro USB. The tradeoff: Sounds hollow.
The DOSS Soundbox Pro is the lighter pick. An inexpensive water resistant stereo speaker with an extra bass button, LED lights, a long rated battery and an aux input. At 1.2 lbs (558 g) it weighs noticeably less than the Sony SRS-XE200 at 1.8 lbs (800 g). It keeps a wired aux input, which the Sony SRS-XE200 lacks. Watch for: Barely any bass.
Buy the Sony SRS-XE200 if sound quality is the priority over the price, or the DOSS Soundbox Pro if the price is the priority over sound quality.
