Same family: the JBL Authentics 300 (larger model, rated 3.5/5) and the JBL Authentics 500 (larger model, rated 4.1/5).

Pros: Wi-Fi streaming with simultaneous Alexa and Google Assistant support, rare at this size. Well balanced sound that reviewers rate close to the pricier Authentics 300. Measured about 113dB at 1kHz on max volume, matching the bigger 300 despite the smaller cabinet. Measured bass extension of ~50Hz (-10dB).

Cons: Bass not as deep as others. No TWS. No IP rating. Not as loud as others. Not much battery life.
