Short answer: the Tribit Xsound Plus 2 if you will apply the EQ, the Xiaomi Sound Outdoor if you will not. The Sound Outdoor is a pretty decent sounding speaker, but its bass is boosted and gets somewhat uncontrolled at higher volumes. The Plus 2 boosts treble and bass out of the box, peaks at 320Hz and dips at 500Hz, and its bass turns slappy in xbass mode, so its recommended EQ is what makes it the stronger pick.
The Xiaomi Sound Outdoor’s strengths: It’s a pretty decent sounding speaker. But: its bass is boosted and gets somewhat uncontrolled at higher volumes.
Buy the Tribit Xsound Plus 2. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $15 saving on the Xiaomi Sound Outdoor is not enough to make up the difference.
Battery life favors the Tribit Xsound Plus 2: rated for 24 hours against 12 hours for the Xiaomi Sound Outdoor.
