Our Verdict

Tribit Stormbox Micro 2

Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 4

The Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 4 is a better speaker than the Tribit Stormbox Micro 2, although that's to be expected since it's a bit bigger and more expensive. The Ultimate Ears offers razor-flat mids and treble and plays back your audio from its 360-degree design without downmixing it to mono. That said, the Ultimate Ears doesn't support voice assistants, and you can't use it like a battery pack to charge your phone, unlike the Tribit.
