Short answer: the Soundcore Boom 2. It ranks #10 of 126 large speakers by sound quality, rated 4.5/5, at $99.99; the Tronsmart Bang 2 ranks #56, rated 3.6/5, and costs $109.99, so there is not much of a tradeoff to weigh.
The Soundcore Boom 2 is the better-sounding, lighter option. A light, waterproof large speaker with deep bass for its size, a 24 hour battery and fun lighting. At 3.7 lbs (1.68 kg) it weighs noticeably less than the Tronsmart Bang 2 at 5.8 lbs (2.63 kg). Watch for: Only a single midrange driver, so you only get stereo for the tweeters.
What the Tronsmart Bang 2 does well: A loud party speaker whose bass holds up at high volume, with water resistance, a long battery, app EQ and a shoulder strap. It keeps a wired aux input, which the Soundcore Boom 2 lacks. Watch for: Verdicts against the Soundcore Boom 2 and the Tribit Stormbox Lava were split: Dominik Reviews preferred the Soundcore Boom 2, and several listeners found the Bang 2’s mids muffled and its highs subdued without custom EQ.
Buy the Soundcore Boom 2. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Tronsmart Bang 2 and costs less, which makes it the one to get unless you need something the other one does better.
