Require a good budget bluetooth speaker.

Don't know much but boat might be a VFM. My friend has a 1.5k boat BT speaker which is stereo & sounds better than my JBL go.

JBL Flip 5 can be had for 6k with card discount, so can also be considered.

Try with cheaper Boat options first with good ratings on amazon. Then later you can decide if it is worth it spending more on BT speakers in India.

I'm buying as a gift, so recommend me good one. I think boat ones are also good, but would prefer something that isnt "gamery" flashy with LEDs.

Did you check reviews of the 2 JBL options I mentioned?

yes, those JBL ones I am going to order most likely, but I would have liked if it was stereo. IDK how much difference it makes.

I didn't know those were mono instead of stereo.

Any other options guys ? Going to order the boat for now, even though i really dislike the design.

I gifted my father JBL and I have Sony... both are better though I liked the JBL sound signature much more.
You can check for SONY Srs-Xb23 little bit old model but does it even matter. Or JBL Flip 5

My colleagues got Boat speakers in award, they are just bass... nothing good. Even the voice prompt was aweful.

Guys i really like sony srs xb23. I might buy it.

damn its out of stock (

You can check the total discount combined with 2000 cashback and ICICI cashback.

This is also a very good option *in.jbl.com/speakers/JBL+Flip+4.html?dwvar_JBL Flip 4_color=Red-EMEA-Current&cgid=speakers

And this. I love the sound signature. *in.jbl.com/speakers/JBLFLIPESSENTIAL.html?dwvar_JBLFLIPESSENTIAL_color=Gun Metal-GLOBAL-Current&cgid=speakers 10% discount and 3 months extended warranty available.


If portability is not required, I would suggest getting bookshelf speakers.

How about tribit XSound Go. It is 16W but dual driver and around Rs 3k. ?

EDIT: Finally ordered JBL Flip 6 from flipkart at Rs 9280. TY Guys. Its meant to be a gift and I think recipient will be happy.

Difference between Flip 5 & Flip 6?

Flip 5 has just single woofer, Flip 6 has a woofer and a tweeter.

Plus Flip 6 has some additional EQ settings not accessible in Flip 5.

Is Flip 6 stereo?

Its 1.1 stereo, 1 woofer 1 tweeter. Apparently the mids and lows handled by woofer and highs handled by tweeter.

Flip 5 is mono, just 1 woofer.

For this price this is the loudest speaker I could find which is from a reputable brand. Even the sony XB200 isnt as loud (even though it is stereo).
