Short answer: the Tribit Stormbox Micro 3. It ranks #6 of 62 small speakers by sound quality, rated 4.2/5, at $56.76. The TOZO PE1 ranks #21, rated 3.5/5, at $22.99, $33.77 cheaper, which does not close the gap in sound quality.
The Tribit Stormbox Micro 3 is the better-sounding, longer-running pick. A tough strap on mini speaker with full waterproofing, a 24 hour battery and a power bank output. It is rated for 24 hours of battery against 12 for the TOZO PE1. It supports AAC Bluetooth, which the TOZO PE1 lacks. The tradeoff: Bass is thuddy and distorted by default and needs EQ.
The TOZO PE1 is the lighter pick. A very cheap, light mini speaker with full waterproofing, a carabiner and app EQ. At 0.5 lbs (248 g) it weighs noticeably less than the Tribit Stormbox Micro 3 at 0.7 lbs (330 g). The catch: Battery life is about 12 hours in use, far short of the claimed 32 hours.
Buy the Tribit Stormbox Micro 3. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $33.77 you would save on the TOZO PE1 does not close the gap.
