For anyone who doesn't know --- Bluetooth doesn't work well underwater so that's more than likely the reason the speakers that sank stopped playing for a bit before reconnecting to the phone
I've got 4 of the Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 2. Serious waterproofing, long battery life, very portable, takes a beating, and love how you can easily pair them.
I had a wonderboom 2 and the second it touched water it decided to die slowly, it made loud popping sounds all night too so I switched to JBL and got a bunch of JBL Speakers probably too much actually and every single one has been in my pool multiple times, they’ve been in rain and sand and they all still work and sound way better. It’s also nice how each different speaker has a unique feature like the xtreme 3’s strap or the pulse 4’s lights. They also charge from usb c which is also better, the battery is better and just everything is better.
They don't really shutdown they lose the Bluetooth signal in the water its harder for the waves to make it through when you press play the reconnect and play
This is so helpful! i was so tired of seeing videos about this topic where it's just a voice over a picture of a speaker that they don't even have and haven't tested. Great video and you totally deserve so many more views
Awesome comparison, if you had to pick one speaker for under $100 to be waterproof and have a decent battery what would you pick? To anyone that has watch this video for more than the first minute and didn’t like it why not? It’s video goes above and beyond majority of all the other reliability test that I see
The WonderBoom is a pretty good all around speaker. aesthetics, form factor, durability, size, volume and battery life are all it’s pluses. My only small quibble is the bass. It’s a smidge on the weak side. Not a deal breaker though when you consider it’s my go to speaker for outdoors. If they up the bass on the next iteration of the WB I’m going to be the first in line to cop.
Probably the JBL Flip 6. It checks all the same boxes as the WB2. With that said though I forgot to mention in my initial comment another feature that I like about the WB2 and that is it’s multidirectional. The Flip 6 is not
@@mowglimowgli4971 i just bought the Tribit Stormbox original (shaped like the Flip 6) and it has substantially better bass than the WB2 (i own the WB2). So if you want something on a budget thats almost as good as Flip 5 then get the Tribit Stormbox. But yeah Flip 6 is the best overall.
Out of all the water proof speakers that are around the 50 dollars range what is the loudest speaker for outdoors (specifically on the tennis court for hitting sessions?)
Love the motion boom. Bought 1 to try out along side a few others (d-9, charge 5, maxsound plus). Returned the others and bought a second boom for TWS pairing.
Very informative, fun and useful video, man. You’re energetic and interested in what you’re doing and that translates very well on video. So refreshing to see. Thank you so much for a fun romp in the pool/jacuzzi with you!
One thing you might me missing is the thought that you can hear these under water while lap swimming. That would be pretty cool. This became my thoughts when recorded and underwater shot of one that plays pointing down and left the audio... or so it seemed.
This was by far the best waterproof speaker test I've seen! I am needing a new wireless speaker and I am leaning towards the Soundcore Flare 2 or one of the JBLs. Keep the videos coming bro...🙌
Fun Fact - Bluetooth Doesn't Transmit through Water - So they probably pause when they go seriously under the water because they lose connection - Fun Video - 🙌🙌🙌
Even the new mini’s sound much better than the originals. They redesigned the t6 mini completely. T7 mini now and. The groove 2. I’m liking all 3 of these releases
See the xb43 Bubbles it filling up with water! Get it out the water quickly! Ir test for 5 mins that'll die with them bubbles proving its filling up with water! It was a good video! I tested the xb43 to jbl xtreame the other day the jbl xtreame 3 just blew it out the water lol so buch more bass!
I had a wonderboom 2 and it fell in the pool and stopped playing and did loud popping sounds all night long so I replaced it with a jbl charge 5, jbl pulse 4 and jbl xtreme 3 they all sound really good and I’ve tested them all in water and they all just floated and worked. I still listen to them through partyboost to this day
The wonderboom 2 is a very good speaker, my cars radio is busted so I just bought one in place of it. Sounds great, battery life is good for the most part, tbh I just forget to charge and it be annoying when it’s dead in the morning
Doesn't the wonder boom have that outdoor mode button on the bottom? Put that on when in the water see if make a difference with the 360 sound! Jbls pulse 4 is bad for letting water in surprisingly!
Brilliant brilliant just love listening to you Very cheerful thanks 👍 excellent video From England UK West Midlands Wolverhampton Massive respect to you Keep it brother 👍👍👍👍😀😀
Great video, I have a question. I have used the JBL clip 1st gen for many years now. It's not waterproof, so looking for one that is and also louder, so I can use it everywhere. On the go, by the beach, holiday, BBQ, travelling (in the car and taking to places). But my budget is £50 / $57 max. Can you recommend any?Thanks brother 👍🏼
We LOVE this thing. It's perfect for the type of people we are. Not really into swimming and playing... just chilling out. It's actually called a cocktail pool. Look into them. 👊🏽
I hope Earth fills with positive, good vibe, nice, funny, pleasant to listen to, handsome people like you! Thanks for your contributions. I really appreciate you.
So which one is the best sounding for you? I think I’ve heard the JBL extreme 3 and it seems the cleanest sounding (bass wise)of all in Best Buy along with some nice SQ! Not the loudest but I’ll take SQ anyday!
I don't know who had more fun, you doing the video or me watching it. It was fun watching it. I also how you used the term "floater;" well we all know the other meaning of the term "floater."
Looks like you had so much fun making this video but I like that you did this makes us feel better . You should do a part 2 with the UE boom 3 and megaboom 3 .
I believe it's also called a cocktail pool. That's why it has the bench going all around. We didn't want to consume our entire backyard with a pool, so we had this built. It's perfect for what we wanted.

I've got 4 of the Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 2. Serious waterproofing, long battery life, very portable, takes a beating, and love how you can easily pair them.
I think JBL and UE are the industry leaders in regards to "life-proof" speakers. Can't really go wrong with them.
I had a wonderboom 2 and the second it touched water it decided to die slowly, it made loud popping sounds all night too so I switched to JBL and got a bunch of JBL Speakers probably too much actually and every single one has been in my pool multiple times, they’ve been in rain and sand and they all still work and sound way better. It’s also nice how each different speaker has a unique feature like the xtreme 3’s strap or the pulse 4’s lights. They also charge from usb c which is also better, the battery is better and just everything is better.
@@NewStuffTV1 my JBL also is still working until now for 6 years but had to find a new one since the bass was already broken last 2 weeks ago.
this was so fun it just felt like we were hanging out and learning! Great vid man!
Thanks for checking it out 👊
Tbh you didn’t make it boring u were enjoying ur self 👍👍
Yes it is 96% boring 😴 😑 😒
They don't really shutdown they lose the Bluetooth signal in the water its harder for the waves to make it through when you press play the reconnect and play
I really appreciate this video with him testing their floating vs sinking capability! Love his energy too, peace brother!
Took me less than 10 seconds to know I'm gonna like this one too. Keep it going, man!
Thanks for checking it out 👊

This is so helpful! i was so tired of seeing videos about this topic where it's just a voice over a picture of a speaker that they don't even have and haven't tested. Great video and you totally deserve so many more views
You blew my mind when you took this test to your controlled testing environment. This video was 🔥i loved it . Which is the loudest budget speaker?
Thanks bro! All of the W-King speakers are crazy loud, but they aren't waterproof.

I have 2 charge 5 1 flip 6 and 1 Xtream 3 and i regret NOTHING

It wasn’t in this video but I recommend the Jbl flip 5 and at Walmart it is $92
love ur youtube channel! think im going to buy the clip 4 because of its portability!

Exactly. And the outdoor mode is a bit harsh. Im with you. If they made a wonderboom 3 that has more bass then it would be perfect! (And usbc lol)
What speaker would you choose to replace the WB2? with better bass
Probably the JBL Flip 6. It checks all the same boxes as the WB2. With that said though I forgot to mention in my initial comment another feature that I like about the WB2 and that is it’s multidirectional. The Flip 6 is not

@@How2Heaven usb c is trash, micro usb better
Ok I’m going on a river float trip. Which speaker would you take? The UE wonderboom 2, JBL flip 5, soundcore 3, or Soundcore motion boom?? Help!
Out of all the water proof speakers that are around the 50 dollars range what is the loudest speaker for outdoors (specifically on the tennis court for hitting sessions?)
What speaker should I buy.. I have a budget of 80 dollars
Didn't expect to enjoy this as much as I do now 😍 my cutie JBL Go 3 ain't a floater 😆❤️
Soundcore motion boom is the WİNNER!
Love the motion boom. Bought 1 to try out along side a few others (d-9, charge 5, maxsound plus). Returned the others and bought a second boom for TWS pairing.
@@mightywhitey5974 👍🏿
Jbl is the most attractive speaker with that big logo in front and all gorgeous colors. It stands oit from the crowd
Very informative, fun and useful video, man. You’re energetic and interested in what you’re doing and that translates very well on video. So refreshing to see. Thank you so much for a fun romp in the pool/jacuzzi with you!
These are all great speakers. I’m wondering if you could do a comparison. Video between the Sony 13 and the Marshall Willen please. Have a great day.
On the speakers that had the metal grills you did not have to dry them out but the ones that had the fabric grills then you did
I wonder how actual pool speakers do? I mean the ones with the cup holders that float and play
One thing you might me missing is the thought that you can hear these under water while lap swimming. That would be pretty cool. This became my thoughts when recorded and underwater shot of one that plays pointing down and left the audio... or so it seemed.
Hi, may I know the model of the Sony portable speaker? sounds great 👍
This was by far the best waterproof speaker test I've seen!
I am needing a new wireless speaker and I am leaning towards the Soundcore Flare 2 or one of the JBLs.
Keep the videos coming bro...🙌
Thanks for checking it out and I'm glad it was helpful 👊
Plz go for JBL Go 3 or clip 4 if u like travelling
I have the JBL Go 2 so I agree with the prior comment. I have the JBL flip 4. My friend, her brother, and I love JBL!
@@NewStuffTV1 my JBL is currently in the bottom of the lake... Hence why I'm here right now 🙃
great video! keep it up!
🔥🔥A real person talking about the speakers and not a bunch of promo videos on each? BOOM, I just subbed!!!!
Hey bro!which of these speakers is the loudest?
Thank you, I go Paddle Boarding and was looking for a waterproof floatable speaker.
Fun Fact - Bluetooth Doesn't Transmit through Water - So they probably pause when they go seriously under the water because they lose connection - Fun Video - 🙌🙌🙌
Thanks for watching. Now I know 👊
Even the new mini’s sound much better than the originals. They redesigned the t6 mini completely. T7 mini now and. The groove 2. I’m liking all 3 of these releases
Do they make one thats not blue tooth...Just batteries am /fm ...water proof
What tune are you listening to? I kind of digg it for just chilling.
Man I love this channel, it’s such a nice change of pace for reviews, keep it up!
Thanks for watching. Hope it was helpful 👊
See the xb43 Bubbles it filling up with water! Get it out the water quickly! Ir test for 5 mins that'll die with them bubbles proving its filling up with water! It was a good video! I tested the xb43 to jbl xtreame the other day the jbl xtreame 3 just blew it out the water lol so buch more bass!
I had a wonderboom 2 and it fell in the pool and stopped playing and did loud popping sounds all night long so I replaced it with a jbl charge 5, jbl pulse 4 and jbl xtreme 3 they all sound really good and I’ve tested them all in water and they all just floated and worked. I still listen to them through partyboost to this day
Great to know, just bought charge 5
@@pc6054 nice the charge 5 is a great speaker
love your videos continue king
👊🏽
This was awesome. Can you throw all speakers into the pool for like a day, and see which ones survive by tomorrow?
Hahaha.. that's interesting I think.. 🤔
11:36 lmao at the water in the speaker
underrated type of testing
I actually happen to own a soundcore speaker and I wouldn't have bought one if I didn't see your review! Thanks man I appreciate it
Bro, this was the funniest review I've seen in a minute. JBL fatboy floatin strong!
Just found your channel. Awesome tests!
This is an incredible review, it's full of fun and informative.
First of its kind.
I'm in the process of collecting Soundcore/Anker Products.
The Boom floats like Bobo, LMBOO
Try clip 3 it might float🙂
The wonderboom 2 is a very good speaker, my cars radio is busted so I just bought one in place of it. Sounds great, battery life is good for the most part, tbh I just forget to charge and it be annoying when it’s dead in the morning
sick video bro! JBL is the one for my jetski!
Hey can you do the w-king x-10 to see if they float on water
Great review what is the name of the last song on the Jbl extreme 3?
The soundcord that was all busted... was that model the "anker"
Yes
this man makes my days
🙌💯
You made me happy cuz I just bought extreme 3 and I did not know we would float
A very useful and interesting video, Thank you very much
Crazy video, thank you for your sacrifice for science! 😆😁
damn homey! That's a real review for the Bluetooth speakers hopefully all those company watching you what doing.. 👋💯
Try the Altek Lansing speakers.
Have you tried the Turtlebox?
Doesn't the wonder boom have that outdoor mode button on the bottom? Put that on when in the water see if make a difference with the 360 sound!
Jbls pulse 4 is bad for letting water in surprisingly!
What model is that BIG HEAVY SONY..?.. Sound amazing...
Sony srs xb43
just fyi, 2.4ghz (bluetooth) does not penetrate water very well which is why at depth you lose bt connection and the music stops
is it worth it to buy Charge 5 if I already have Tribit Stormbox?
Brilliant brilliant just love listening to you
Very cheerful thanks 👍 excellent video
From England UK
West Midlands Wolverhampton
Massive respect to you
Keep it brother 👍👍👍👍😀😀
Why do you buy the new jbl models try sone old ones like the charge 4 or flip 4
Stumbled upon your channel..very god review video..and light-hearted..you would be a cool neighbor..just decided to subscribe
Do you think they would be fine in a decent/heavy rain? It can rain like crazy here in KY
11:52 = "So far we've got 4 floaters here..."
Not normally a phrase you want to hear in the pool! :D
Lmaooooooo! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Watch it i Think the 20th time no joke i LOVE this
What weighs more? SONY XB43 OR JBL XTREME 3
The video we didn’t ask for but we all needed
👊
Jbl sucks for lake’s honesty I try most of them and still sucks… going to Samsung ones
Great video, I have a question. I have used the JBL clip 1st gen for many years now. It's not waterproof, so looking for one that is and also louder, so I can use it everywhere.

Lots of fun! Thanks for the entertainment! I have the Motion Plus and love it!
Dude I was getting worried about you for a bit, I thought the storm might sweep you away, lol. Great vid, take care and stay safe 😎🍻🤘
As usual you're on point...I'm down with anything YOU put out. Keep doin U 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Okay that may be off topic but that is a super nice pool. It looks amazing ♥️
Thank you, we love it!
I hope Earth fills with positive, good vibe, nice, funny, pleasant to listen to, handsome people like you! Thanks for your contributions. I really appreciate you.
I have that Sony srs xb43 it is so bloody heavy and good sounding
Really love your videos man, you manage to make my day time and again!
Awesome! 🙌
Man, I was going to “hit and quit it” on this video, but you called me out at the end. Damn, now I am subscribed.
So which one is the best sounding for you? I think I’ve heard the JBL extreme 3 and it seems the cleanest sounding (bass wise)of all in Best Buy along with some nice SQ! Not the loudest but I’ll take SQ anyday!
hey may I have one of your spearkers?
Anker motion plus?
That was a fun experiment
I don't know who had more fun, you doing the video or me watching it. It was fun watching it. I also how you used the term "floater;" well we all know the other meaning of the term "floater."
thanks for the awesome video and being in the pool with a storm incoming! lol, Thanks!
Wasn't expecting the video, but it was very much what I'm curious about the newer waterproof speakers if I need to upgrade mine.
very interesting test! would have loved to see a summary like a table or something in the end. Good content nonetheless
Looks like you had so much fun making this video but I like that you did this makes us feel better . You should do a part 2 with the UE boom 3 and megaboom 3 .
Great job, bro! Greetings from Russia!
Thanks for watching! 👊
Thanks man i have the charge 5
Sony XB 33 floats with speakers up. !!!! 🔥
Bro it's not the drifter it's the material
Please make a video about soundcore motion plus vs jbl charge
Thank you for the video Just bought the Tribit stormbox pro. Good to know it floats. Headed to the lake soon. Great video New subscriber
Are you selling any of your speakers under retail? Need one for the beach
What about tronsmart speakers bro?.....btw this video was perfect for me....proper water test❤️🔥
I'm wondering what multiple catastrophic lithium ion battery failures would do to a guy in a pool full of bluetooth speakers.
I’m curious about that pool, looks like the right size for summer refreshment. Is this a plunge pool?
I believe it's also called a cocktail pool. That's why it has the bench going all around. We didn't want to consume our entire backyard with a pool, so we had this built. It's perfect for what we wanted.
