Short answer: the Tribit Stormbox Flow. It ranks #58 of 179 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 3.5/5, at $79.99; the LG Xboom Grab ranks #106, rated 3.0/5, and costs $104.99, so there is not much of a tradeoff to weigh.
The Tribit Stormbox Flow is the better-sounding, deeper-bass choice. A waterproof speaker with very long battery life, a carry handle, stereo pairing and a port that charges your phone. Its bass reaches about 47Hz before falling 10dB, against 75Hz for the LG Xboom Grab. It is rated for 30 hours of battery against 20 for the LG Xboom Grab. Watch for: Midrange and bass are weirdly recessed about 4db below 700Hz.
What the LG Xboom Grab does well: A rugged waterproof speaker with elastic mounting straps, a long 20 hour battery, multipoint pairing and app room calibration. The tradeoff: Bass extension not as deep as the top speakers.
Buy the Tribit Stormbox Flow. It is rated higher for sound quality than the LG Xboom Grab and costs less, so it is the default pick unless a specific strength of the other one matters more to you.
