I have been looking for a bluetooth speaker, Under 3.5k. Here is a brief of what I want
  1. Flat Response, Not too much base that highs sound sh**
  2. Water, Dust protection not necessary, But Yes if available
  3. USB/Micro SD not required, But If AUX is available, then it would be better
  4. Size does not matter
  5. Battery life of around 2-3hrs is fine. Actually not a big problem
  6. Loudness is an important factor, Voice should not distort at high volume
  7. As the festive season is coming, So if the product a bit higher than the budget, will be discounted, then it can be considered.
  8. Should last long, as I will not use it much but 4-5 days a month. or on trips.

Here Is what I have shortlisted:-

1) Creative Muvo play (This was Digit's Best Buy in 2019's Zero 1 awards) Robot Check
2) UE Wonderboom ( This was Digit's Best Buy in 2018's Zero 1 awards) Robot Check ( I know this is above my budget, But I hope this gets discounted to nearly 4K, i can use my card discount and bring it near 3.8K)
3) Amkette Trubeats Boomerfx+ Robot Check


Any other suggestions are welcome. But try to Keep them below 3.8K Maximum.

If you can stretch a bit, you can get some JBL model, which would be better than all of these.

JBL GO 2 comes at that budget, I bought it, The sound was a harsh at high volume, and its battery lasted only 8 months, before it started giving me a 15 minute working time

I am considering some other brands, because JBL was also no where to be seen anywhere in Dgit's ranking.

i am having Zaap since last 2 yrs and still gives me 1hr of backup on medium volume. It was never used at max volume. May be you can try this brand.

I saw this, but I would like a bit more deeper lows, making it sound warmer. Added, it has 7 watt speaker, which I feel is a bit less, compared to 12 watt.

So finally, Went to an audio store, Compared both the speakers. The sony one is not good, Only prefer for a small room. JBL Flip Essential is loud and crisp, And the Bass or lows aint bad. It is good for small parties and rides. Overall, JBL is better one.
