Which one should you buy?

For most Australians the Soundcore Motion 300 is the speaker to buy: it pulls genuine stereo sound from a single unit and adds hi-res audio plus an IPX7 water rating for well under 100 dollars, which is why it beats the JBL tax. Step up to the Bose SoundLink Flex if you genuinely need a beach speaker that floats and survives sand, or the Soundcore Boom 2 if you want a real subwoofer for parties.
