Our Verdict

Sonos Move

Devialet Mania

The Sonos Move and the Devialet Mania are both portable Bluetooth speakers with smart capabilities, meaning that you can control their features with their built-in voice assistants. The Sonos is likely a better value for most users since it features a longer battery life and a more balanced sound out-of-the-box. It gets a bit louder, too, although there's some compression when you press it to max volume.
