Fact-checked

Checked for accuracy by our qualified verifiers and subject experts. Find out more about fact-checking at CHOICE.

Our expert testers take to the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳sound room to find the wireless speakers that:

  • have the best sound when listening to jazz, pop and classical music
  • sound the best for speech
  • weigh the least and are easy to carry around
  • are the easiest to use.

We've also partnered with on this update to show the ratings that the Ethical Consumer Group gives to each company.

Shopping links on the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳website

ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳is an independent, nonprofit organisation dedicated to helping consumers. Clicking a link will take you to a retailer's website to shop. While we make money if you buy through some retailer links, this doesn't influence any of our rankings. 100% of the money we make goes straight back into our nonprofit mission. We're currently testing this service and will consider providing more shopping links in the future. .

Bluetooth and Wi-Fi wireless speakers and smart displays let you play music while keeping your smartphone or music player close at hand. 

Our interactive comparison tool helps you easily find the models that have Wi-Fi or Bluetooth (or both) and the ones that come in under a kilo so you can comfortably carry them in a day pack. Our Recommended list will show you at a glance which models come out on top.

Note: We adjusted our method and score weighting in November 2021 and applied this to previously tested models as well as new ones. Some scores and recommendations may have changed as a result.
