I’m looking for recommendations for a portable Bluetooth speaker for my wife. Sound quality with good bass is the highest priority. Prefer no voice assistance but would like a wifi option and USB-c charging. Thank you in advance.

    I have a JBL Link Portable, which seems to be out of stock, but should fill most of your requirements if you can get your hands on one:

    • supports Chromecast Audio, AirPlay, and BT
    • sounds good
    • has good battery (I get 7-8h of playtime against 8h quotes battery life)
    • charges over USB-C (both via an included charging dock and a direct cable connection

    The only downside is that it has Google’s voice assistant built in, but you can turn it off.

    JBL make fantastic BT speakers. They have everything feom pocket speakers to PA style. I have a charge 3 which is an older portable model that has dual subs and great sound.
