Short answer: the Xiaomi Sound Party. It ranks #20 of 179 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 4.1/5, at $135.84. The Cleer Audio Scene ranks #33, rated 3.9/5, at $74.99, $60.85 cheaper, a saving that is not big enough to make up the sound-quality gap.
The Xiaomi Sound Party is the deeper-bass, longer-running option. A versatile outdoor speaker with warm, balanced sound, fully waterproof build, long battery life, a phone charging port and a handy retractable handle. Its bass reaches about 54Hz before falling 10dB, against 62Hz for the Cleer Audio Scene. It is rated for 26 hours of battery against 12 for the Cleer Audio Scene. It has an adjustable EQ, which the Cleer Audio Scene lacks. Watch for: The sound evidence is mixed rather than universally glowing.
The Cleer Audio Scene is the lighter option. A stereo portable speaker with quite neutral, natural sound that keeps voices and instruments clear and true. At 1.6 lbs (742 g) it weighs much less than the Xiaomi Sound Party at 2.6 lbs (1.2 kg). It supports AAC Bluetooth, which the Xiaomi Sound Party lacks. It keeps a wired aux input, which the Xiaomi Sound Party lacks. Watch for: Less bass extension than a JBL Flip 6.
Buy the Xiaomi Sound Party. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $60.85 you would save on the Cleer Audio Scene does not close the gap.
