There are a variety of portable speakers in the market now from sony to LG to JBL just to make a few.

One thing that all these speakers have in common is that the companies have different speakers with different build and sound quality that can be seen reflecting on the prices.

I have decided to compare two good portable speakers in the same output wattage to their price, starting with the JBL Charge 4. The more popular one.

The JBL Charge 4

30watts
60HZ lowest frequency
7500mah battery
Great sound quality
Big battery capacity
IPX7 water resistant rating

The JBL charge 4 is one of the most purchased portable speaker in its 'category', maybe because of its ability to act as a power bank (never seen any user using that feature though), it's thumping bass, design or because it's been marketed more than others. But it is surely not the best speaker in its category, or the best for your money. It is actually quite expensive.

The Soundcore Motion Plus (+)

Soundcore is anker's sound department to put it in the shortest terms.

Where anker has very expensive power banks, they have really affordable speakers for the price they offer and the motion plus is one of those good speakers for the price. (Also see motion boom if you were born to make noise grin)

With
30watts output
50Hz lowest frequency
40,000Hz highest frequency
6700mah battery
IPX7 water resistant rating
Great sound quality
4 speaker drivers
EQ settings for preference

Is a really good portable speaker for the bucks spent, great speakers, newer bluetooth technology, really great bass, no distortions at loud volumes, design not overly pirated in Nigeria (yet)

Comparing both speakers

Charge 4
Bigger battery - 7400 mah with up to 20hrs of play
Power bank capable
60Hz lowest frequency
20,000Hz highest frequency
1 speaker driver
JBL app (no EQ settings as of 26th feb, 2021)
Bluetooth 4.2
Type C power input
$180 (without tax, shipping, custom fees etc)

Motion+
Smaller battery - 6500 mah with up to 12hrs of play
NOT Power bank capable
50Hz lowest frequency (pick more bass and lower sounds)
40,000Hz highest frequency (pick higher sounds without distortions)
4 speaker driver (more bass - come and beat me in my house)
Soundcore app (plenty EQ settings to try as of 26th feb, 2021)
Bluetooth 5.0
Type C power input
$100 (without tax, shipping, custom fees etc)

Both speakers have the option of being connected to more than one copies of themselves and creating a super speaker, so it would be cool with friends who have similar products.

Which would you buy? And why?

What is the price in Nigeria? Especially the Anker
