JBL Flip 6 vs Anker Soundcore Select 2S

If you're not constrained by budget, the JBL Flip 6 offers quite a bit of value over the Anker Soundcore Select 2S for the additional outlay. Despite being roughly the same size, the JBL has a better build quality and a more balanced frequency response, with more bass on tap. It also has better connectivity options, as you can pair two devices at once via Bluetooth and form a stereo pair with a host of different JBL speakers via the companion app. That said, the Anker is able to deliver a longer battery life and a better dynamics performance at a lower price point, which makes it a solid choice for those who want an outdoor speaker on a budget.
