If you spend a lot of time outdoors, or are the designated host for a season’s worth of backyard cookouts, you need a waterproof Bluetooth speaker.
A good speaker provides background noise while you’re eating, entertainment while you’re working, and fills in gaps between conversations. The ones in this guide stand out because they’re all waterproof to some extent. Most can be totally submerged underwater for several minutes, and all of them can handle splashes, spills, or an unexpected rainstorm.
