Short answer: the Tribit PocketGo, if you are buying new. The Vifa City ranks higher than it (#10 vs #32 of 62 small speakers, 4.0/5 vs 3.2/5) but is discontinued, so only consider it used; the Tribit PocketGo is still sold new at $22.99.
The Vifa City is the better-sounding option. A small, stylish speaker with detailed, balanced sound and clear vocals even at low volume, and stereo pairing. The tradeoff: Dip at 1200Hz.
The Tribit PocketGo is the longer-running, lighter choice. A very cheap pocket speaker with a long battery, app EQ, and a loop so it can stand, hang, or lie flat. It is rated for 20 hours of battery against 12 for the Vifa City. At 0.5 lbs (220 g) it weighs noticeably less than the Vifa City at 0.7 lbs (300 g). It is rated IP68 against IPX4 for the Vifa City. The tradeoff: Battery life isn’t the biggest for this speaker class. JBL Go 5 has better build quality plus lightshow, Auracast, and AirTouch.
Buy the Tribit PocketGo, since the Vifa City is discontinued and only worth hunting down used.
