| Bottom line | The Jabra Solemate has a few small shortcomings, but overall it's a very solid compact Bluetooth speaker with a unique design. | The JBL Flip's decent performance and attractive design make it a worthy Bluetooth speaker contender at $100. | The Jambox is the most stylish portable speaker we've seen, with features and sound quality you won't find in comparable compact designs. | The Beats Pill outperforms the Jawbone Jambox and has a couple of intriguing extra features, but Apple
iOS 6 users may encounter some problems. | While the SoundLink Bluetooth Mobile Speaker II may no longer be in a class by itself, it's still near the top of the portable Bluetooth speaker category. |
