Five stars

Amazon Echo Dot (5th gen) was £55 now £44 (save £11)
Amazon's fifth-generation Echo Dot is a five-star performer with a surprising amount of wallop. It may be small but the dinky Dot sounds authoritative and musical at all volumes. It's also fitted out with the excellent Alexa smart assistant and is finished to a predictably high standard. This discount is massive, so unless you hate all things Amazon, it's pretty much a no-brainer.

Five stars

JBL Go 4 was £45 now £30 at John Lewis (save £15)
Adorable to behold and a joy to listen to, the soap-sized JBL Go 4 is a pocket-sized charmer. Rectifying a few of the niggles from the third-gen model, the new kid on the block offers a super-durable build, improved battery life (around 7 hours) and a sound that goes well beyond what you'd expect for this size and price. Student at uni? The Go 4 could be your party-starting partner.

Sony ULT Field 1 was £119 now £84 at Amazon (save £35

Sony ULT Field 1 was £119 now £84 at Amazon (save £35)
The Sony ULT Field 1 has a lot going for it, especially for users who want two distinct sound profiles - one bass-boosted and one more natural - alongside a very healthy stable of features and a reassuringly sturdy Sony build. As an alternative to the JBL Flip 6, it makes a good degree of sense when the price is right.

JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi was £230now £179 at Amazon (save £51)Five stars

JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi was £230 now £179 at Amazon (save £51)
One of the best portable speakers we've tested recently, the JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi adds more wi-fi streaming options, Alexa Multiroom and slight sonic enhancements to the original and excellent Charge 5 model. This significant discount on a great speaker is a certified winner.
Five stars

Sonos Roamwas £179now £146 at Amazon (save £33)
Lowest price on black finish

Sonos Roam was £179 now £146 at Amazon (save £33)
Sonos is known for its attractive, full-sounding speakers, and while the Sonos Roam doesn't quite hit the heights reached by the likes of the Era 100 and 300 smart speakers, it's still a nicely made, robust unit full of musical muscle. The Roam 2 is out, but considering that the second-gen unit doesn't make many sonic improvements and costs a good deal more, the original is the one to go for when prices drop.
Lowest price on black finish.

Dali Katch G2 was £349 now £299 at Peter Tyson (save £50)
Five stars

Dali Katch G2 was £349 now £299 at Peter Tyson (save £50)
The Dali Katch G2  was released back in 2022, but prices never fell as they usually do for almost any other rival Bluetooth speaker. Perhaps it's due to its increasing age or because the Katch isn't a current Award-winner anymore, but either way this is a belting deal on one of our favourite portable speakers of recent times.
Five stars

Five stars

Sonos Era 300 was £449 now £376 at Amazon (save £73)
The excellent, spatial audio-toting Sonos Era 300 is on a major discount right now. We love its huge, expressive sound and extensive streaming features. It might not seem like a huge discount, but any money off this premium speaker is a good deal in our books.
Five stars

Sonos Era 100was £249now £225 at Amazon (save £27) Five stars

Sonos Era 100 was £249 now £225 at Amazon (save £27) The Era 300's smaller sibling isn't much less impressive. It's still a wonderful speaker that gives a great deal of performance from a relatively small unit, and as a Sonos product, mega deals aren't always forthcoming, so any drop in price on the Era 100 should be snapped up sharpish.
Five stars

Five stars

JBL Xtreme 4 was £330 now £239 at Amazon (save £81)
The JBL Xtreme 4 took all that we loved about the Xtreme 3 and built on it to great effect, resulting in a Bluetooth boombox that sounds masterful no matter what you throw at it. This is close to the lowest price for the Xtreme 4 we've seen thus far, meaning you'll be getting the best price possible on a very fresh, up-to-date unit.
Five stars

JBL Xtreme 3 was £300 now £177 at Amazon (save £222)
Considerably bigger than the Flip 6 above, the JBL Xtreme 3 is a versatile and talented wireless speaker that’s as happy chilling at home as it is being the life and soul of a party. With £100 off, JBL's Xtreme is a great choice for those wanting to fill a big space with musical sound.

JBL Flip 5 was £120 now £67 at Amazon (save £53)
Five stars

JBL Flip 5 was £120 now £67 at Amazon (save £53)
Small, pocketable and perfect for your travels, the Flip 5 is a superb little Bluetooth speaker, with 12 hours of battery life, brilliant sound quality and a £41 saving at Amazon. This is the lowest price we've seen on the Flip 5, which isn't a huge surprise considering how long the fantastic burrito belter has been around. As an even cheaper alternative to the sixth-gen Flip, this is a serious steal.
Five stars

Audio Pro C20 was £450 now £400 at Amazon (save £50Five stars

Audio Pro C20 was £450 now £400 at Amazon (save £50)
Being a Bluetooth speaker is just one of the many, many things the superb Audio Pro C20 can do. Wireless streaming, AirPlay 2, a built-in phono stage, HDMI connectivity, Google Cast, optical, RCA line in, a sub out, the list just goes on and on. Oh, and it sounds resplendent, too.
Five stars

Ultimate Ears Epicboom was £330 now £298 at Amazon (save £32)

Ultimate Ears Epicboom was £330 now £298 at Amazon (save £32)
The bold, beefy UE Epicboom doesn't usually come cheap at its official retail price of £330, so a discount that knocks it down by almost £50 isn't to be taken lightly. With its powerful, broad sound complimented by a very healthy feature set and an attractive, robust build, you're certainly getting a lot of speaker for your money.
