Short answer: the Soundcore Motion 300. It ranks #3 of 177 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 4.5/5, at $79.99. The Walla Sound ranks #163, rated 2.2/5, at $49.99, $30 cheaper, not enough of a saving to outweigh the sound-quality gap.
The Soundcore Motion 300 is the better-sounding, deeper-bass choice. A compact stereo speaker with deep bass for its size, hi res Bluetooth and a custom EQ for each position, standing or lying down. Its bass reaches about 50Hz before falling 10dB, against 90Hz for the Walla Sound. It is rated for 13 hours of battery against 8 for the Walla Sound. It is rated IPX7 against IPX5 for the Walla Sound. The catch: Without the above EQ or turning the top 2 treble EQ bars to max, this speaker is very rolled off in the treble and will rank around #50 in the rankings.
The Walla Sound is the lighter option. A small shockproof speaker with an aux input, microSD playback and a built in microphone. At 0.7 lbs (300 g) it weighs much less than the Soundcore Motion 300 at 1.7 lbs (772 g). It keeps a wired aux input, which the Soundcore Motion 300 lacks. The catch: No bass, gets distorted when turned up.
Buy the Soundcore Motion 300. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $30 you would save on the Walla Sound does not close the gap.
