Short answer: the Soundcore 2. It ranks #105 of 179 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 3.0/5, at $29.99; the DOSS Soundbox Pro ranks #171, rated 2.1/5, at $29.99. With prices this close, go by the sound-quality ranking rather than the cost.
The Soundcore 2 is the better-sounding, lighter choice. A cheap, light waterproof stereo speaker with a long rated battery, an aux input and pairing with a second unit. At 0.7 lbs (318 g) it weighs much less than the DOSS Soundbox Pro at 1.2 lbs (558 g). Watch for: Bass is specified only down to 70Hz, so the low end is limited.
The case for the DOSS Soundbox Pro: An inexpensive water resistant stereo speaker with an extra bass button, LED lights, a long rated battery and an aux input. It has an adjustable EQ, which the Soundcore 2 lacks. The tradeoff: Barely any bass.
Buy the Soundcore 2. It is rated higher for sound quality than the DOSS Soundbox Pro at the same price, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
