If you’re looking for a compact Bluetooth speaker that’s as tough as it is portable, the JBL Go 3 (available in blue and camouflage), might be worth a look. Currently available on Woot for $24.95 (down from $49.95), this little speaker packs a surprising punch for its size. It also comes with a 90-day Woot limited warranty, with free shipping for Prime members. This deal lasts 19 days or until it sells out. That said, it doesn’t ship to Alaska, Hawaii, or PO boxes.

At just 2.7 by 3.4 by 1.6 inches and weighing 7.4 ounces, the Go 3 is small enough to toss into a bag (or even a pocket). Its rugged design, including a sporty lanyard and a cloth grille exterior, feels durable and ready for adventure. Additionally, its IP67 rating means it’s waterproof and dust-proof, so whether it’s by the pool or in the shower, you won’t have to worry about water damage. For controls, you’ve got the basics: buttons for play/pause, volume, power, and Bluetooth pairing. Double-tapping the play button skips forward a track, though you’ll miss having a backtrack option. There’s also no speakerphone functionality—a letdown, but forgivable at this price.

As for sound, the Go 3 is surprisingly well-rounded. It won’t shake the room with bass, but its mono 1.5-inch driver delivers clear mids and highs and avoids distortion even at high volumes, according to this PCMag review. Battery life is decent at around five hours, but your mileage may vary depending on volume levels.
