Short answer: the Soundcore 2. It ranks #105 of 179 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 3.0/5, at $29.99; the TOZO PA2 ranks #142, rated 2.5/5, 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 option. 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 TOZO PA2 at 1.2 lbs (540 g). It keeps a wired aux input, which the TOZO PA2 lacks. The catch: Bass is specified only down to 70Hz, so the low end is limited.
Why pick the TOZO PA2: A cheap, fully waterproof stereo speaker with a fabric wrapped build, a long battery and app EQ presets. It supports AAC Bluetooth, which the Soundcore 2 lacks. It has an adjustable EQ, which the Soundcore 2 lacks. It charges over USB-C rather than Micro USB. The tradeoff: Quite a bit of bass distortion thudding as you turn the volume up.
Buy the Soundcore 2. It is rated higher for sound quality than the TOZO PA2 at the same price, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
