Medium Size Portable Bluetooth Speakers Ranked

This page ranks 131 medium size Bluetooth speakers. This is one of the best general-use size classes, about the size of a 1L water bottle, light enough to hand carry, and small enough to fit in a water bottle holder. They can fill a bedroom or provide background music for a small outdoor gathering. Outdoors they’ll sound a bit bass-light but work well for background music. The best here have bass extension similar to a 5.25” woofer bookshelf speaker. Larger size classes will generally go deeper. All are IPX7 or better unless noted.

To the average listener, speakers in the top 50% of this category will likely sound great. For the critical listener, aim for the top 20%. Don’t hesitate to pick any of those if you have budget, feature, or aesthetic priorities, there are a lot of good speakers here.
