The 10 best portable Bluetooth speakers take your music to-go
Recent additions to this guide:
January 2026: We've removed the Sonos Move 2 from this guide because of the high price tag and problems with Sonos software; it's also one of the older speakers on this list.
January 2026: We've removed the IKEA VAPPEBY portable speaker. It's still a good speaker, but there are more well-rounded options for under $50.
November 2025: We've selected the Bose SoundLink Micro (2nd Generation) as our best travel speaker, replacing the IKEA Vappeby (our new honorable mention pick).
November 2025: We've added the JBL PartyBox Stage 320 as the best party speaker, replacing the older Ultimate Ears Hyperboom.
November 2025: We've added the Sony ULT Field 7 as the best boombox-style speaker.
