Short answer: the W-King D8. It ranks #61 of 120 large speakers by sound quality, rated 3.5/5, at $69.98; the Tronsmart Halo 100 ranks #75, rated 3.2/5, and costs $109.99, so there is not much of a tradeoff to weigh.
The W-King D8 is the longer-running choice. An affordable stereo boombox with four drivers, waterproofing, and a long battery for backyard and beach playlists. It is rated for 24 hours of battery against 18 for the Tronsmart Halo 100.
The Tronsmart Halo 100 is the louder pick. A loud, affordable outdoor party speaker with RGB lights, water resistance, and a USB port to charge phones. Alan Ross Reviews measured it at 104dB at full volume, against 101dB for the W-King D8. Watch for: Not a very smooth frequency response.
Buy the W-King D8. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Tronsmart Halo 100 and costs less, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
