Short answer: the Soundcore 2. It ranks #105 of 179 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 3.0/5, at $29.99; the Oontz Angle 3 Ultra ranks #163, rated 2.2/5, and costs $39.99, which makes this an easy call rather than a real tradeoff.
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 noticeably less than the Oontz Angle 3 Ultra at 0.9 lbs (400 g). The tradeoff: Bass is specified only down to 70Hz, so the low end is limited.
Why pick the Oontz Angle 3 Ultra: A cheap, very light waterproof speaker with a long battery and plenty of features for the money. It has an adjustable EQ, which the Soundcore 2 lacks. It charges over USB-C rather than Micro USB. Watch for: Very little bass with horrible upper bass thud at higher levels.
Buy the Soundcore 2. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Oontz Angle 3 Ultra and costs less, which makes it the one to get unless you need something the other one does better.
