Our Verdict
Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 2
DOSS SoundBox Plus
The Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 2 is a better speaker than the DOSS SoundBox Plus. The Ultimate Ears is better-built with longer battery life. Also, its sound profile is more neutral, and it has a better, more immersive soundstage performance. However, the DOSS supports voice assistants, unlike the Ultimate Ears.
