Short answer: the W-King T9. It ranks #53 of 120 large speakers by sound quality, rated 3.6/5, at $111.23; the Tronsmart Halo 100 ranks #75, rated 3.2/5, at $109.99. The price gap is small enough that the sound-quality ranking should decide it.
The W-King T9 is the better-sounding, longer-running option. A loud stereo party speaker with a wireless microphone for karaoke, lights, a long battery and a power bank. It is rated for 24 hours of battery against 18 for the Tronsmart Halo 100. The tradeoff: Peaks in the upper mids which makes it sound a bit harsh.
The Tronsmart Halo 100 is the lighter, tougher choice. A loud, affordable outdoor party speaker with RGB lights, water resistance, and a USB port to charge phones. At 6 lbs (2.72 kg) it weighs much less than the W-King T9 at 10.1 lbs (4.6 kg). It is rated IPX7, while the W-King T9 has no water resistance. The catch: Not a very smooth frequency response.
Buy the W-King T9. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $1.24 you would save on the Tronsmart Halo 100 does not close the gap.
