It’s summertime and the living is easy, until the speaker falls into the pool and the new Jo Bros album ceases to play, rendering your pool party silent. (The horror!)
But have no fear — waterproof speakers are here! You can dunk them, splash them, balance them on a raft whilst you float, build a sandcastle alongside them — we’re not judging. Ahead, these are our fave affordable waterproof speakers. Perfect for throwing in your beach bag, along with a beach towel. Because no pool or beach day is complete without some tunage. And if the tide gets high, no sweat.
Sony Portable Bluetooth Speaker
This speaker is really powerful — like, it has extra bass (for when that beat drops). There’s also a v cute smaller version for $59.99. Oh, and you can submerge it in the deep end (not that you would want to, but that’s not the point), and it will still work. Technology!
