GoKawiilLooking for a Bluetooth speaker that's portable, affordable, and waterproof? You can pick up the Tribit Stormbox Mini+ for just $33 from Amazon, a $7 discount from its usual price. It's super portable, totally waterproof, and has big, bold sound that's great for traveling, backyard parties, or bike rides, making it an easy pick for our favorite portable Bluetooth speaker.
While there are plenty of Bluetooth speakers that are table-worthy, there are far fewer competent speakers at this more pocketable footprint. At 4.69 inches tall and 3.58 inches and diameter, it's just about the same size as the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 4, but at less than half the price. It sports similar features too, with 360-degree speakers for complete sound no matter where you're standing, albeit without quite as much clarity. You can also pair up multiple speakers for a proper stereo setup that will cover your whole backyard, a trick not a lot of speakers at this price point have up their sleeve.
Despite its compact size and affordable pricing, the Stormbox Mini+ is surprisingly sturdy. It has an IPX7 rating, which means you can submerge it fully underwater for up to 30 minutes, although it doesn't float the right way, so it's probably better for surviving a quick rainstorm than powering a pool party. You can crank the volume without any distortion, although it will affect your battery life, which is typically just under 10 hours with the lights on and volume up. It also has a speakerphone mode, in case you want to give that one friend running late to the party some FOMO.
While all the Stormbox Mini+ is marked down by $7 in all three colors, the black version has a lower starting price of $40, while the blue and green models started at $42, and are now marked down to $35. There was also a coupon on the page for an extra 10% off applied at checkout, but your mileage may vary.
