Choosing the right Bluetooth Speaker

I have always loved the idea of being able to take my music with me and share it with the people around me.

The Kingone K5 Speaker is a great bluetooth portable speaker with an awesome price tag.  Its sound could be heard in the entire room without sacrificing the sound quality.  Aside from its bluetooth capability, you could also play your favorite tunes using the auxiliary in(aux in). If you are not familiar what the aux in is, it is where you use a 3.5mm jack male to male (see image below) and plug it to your music player just like an ordinary earphone jack and plug the other end to your kingone K5.  The Kingone K5 also has a microsd slot where you could play directly from your microsd card.

The Sony SRS-X5 is the biggest of the three bluetooth speakers that I have, and has the most amazing bass amongst the three. Because of its size, I only use it at home. But sometimes, I bring the Sony SRS-X5 with me during outdoor picnics or when travelling out of town, since it is not only a bluetooth speaker but can also be used as a powerbank.  It also supports Aux In same as the Kingone but unfortunately doesn't support microsd, which means you need a music player with the Sony SRS-X5.

The last but not the least of the three speakers is the JBL Clip. Why is it called a JBL Clip? Because it has a built-in carabiner which is perfect for those who love the outdoors.  With its carabiner, you could just clip it in your pants or bag and you are ready to go. Unfortunately this little baby doesn't have much bass and cannot handle very high volume, but this baby still packs a punch.  This has a built-in aux wire attached to the back, so there is no need to purchase a wire. Just like the Sony X5 it doesn't support micro sd.

So after using the three portable bluetooth speakers, here are my reviews and comparisons.

The Sony SRS-X5 is perfect for home use.  Due to its size the Sony X5 is not for your everyday travel companion, but still perfect for those long drive or out of town trips since it also doubles as a powerbank.

The JBL Clip is perfect for those who love to travel since it is very compact, and with its built-in carabiner it is very easy to bring with you.

The Kingone is the cheapest of the three, so if you are looking for a decent bluetooth speaker that will not hurt your budget, then this one is for you.
