Our Verdict

Pohopa EF-B210G

Alpine Corporation Solar Bluetooth Rock Speaker

The Pohopa EF-B210G speakers are better for the outdoors than the Alpine Corporation Solar Bluetooth Rock Speaker overall. They come in a pair of two speakers that can be paired together. They also have unique lantern designs with LED lights that alternate colors to the beat of your music. Unlike the Alpine, they can play stereo content without downmixing it to mono. They also get louder and have a more extended low bass, though their sound profile is a bit uneven. They're also rated IP54 for dust and water resistance. However, the Alpine has better latency performance with iOS and Android devices than the Pohopa speakers, and some users may prefer its rock-like design with a built-in solar panel.
