Ultimate ears
Ultimate Ears makes some of the best portable Bluetooth speakers, and the Boom series is at home outdoors thanks to its simple but sturdy design and good battery life. The price for the Boom 3 is a bit high, but it's worth it. So I was excited to find one now UE Boom 3 for just $ 89 on the back market, which is 22% of the current list price of $ 150. (Back Market claims this is 57% off a list price of $ 210, but I can't imagine where that number came from - it has never been listed for $ 210.)
This Boom 3 has been renovated, but is known as "Mint" on the back market. This is the highest condition of the site, without scratches and with brand new outsides. The reburbisher also notes that the speaker is "in excellent cosmetic condition. Can show minimal to no signs of wear. All devices have been tested and returned to their original, factory, standard condition." It also comes with a 12 month guarantee and a 30 day money back guarantee.
If you've seen UE speakers, you probably know the standard cylindrical shape of the Boom series, which allows full 360-degree sound projection. The Boom 3 is wrapped in fabric and has a single control: the so-called magic button, which plays and pauses music and triggers up to four playlists. Just press to start playback even when the speaker is off, and long-press to go to the next playlist you saved through the Ultimate Ears app.

The battery life is approximately 15 hours. Due to the protection class IP67, the battery can be immersed for 30 minutes without damage. However, you would have to intentionally keep it under water since the Boom 3 floats comfortably.
