The Best-Looking Portable Speaker I Own Is Currently on Sale for $50.
Over the years of testing speakers, I’ve learned a few things: reputation and price make me buy them, but if I like the look, I’ll stick with them over better-quality options. That’s the beauty of Marshall speakers. They look great while also performing their primary function as portable speakers. The Marshall Emberton III is currently priced at $129.99 (originally $179.99), the lowest price ever, according to price tracking tools .
My wife and I have been using the Marshall Emberton III for several months now, and we love it. As soon as she saw it, she fell in love with its appearance and wanted to keep it on the kitchen counter before she even turned it on. Now we use it on the kitchen counter and listen to music while we cook or clean.
The Emberton III is a portable speaker designed for outdoor use, weather-resistant with an IP67 waterproof rating, and boasts a long battery life of up to 32 hours. It delivers on all fronts with a premium look and feel. Its sound is distortion-free even at maximum volume, which is surprising for a small portable speaker, and it’s quite loud for its size.
The main drawback is the lack of an adjustable equalizer in the app, but you can’t have everything. The speaker has physical controls on the top panel for changing songs and pausing playback. There’s also a battery indicator. The design is simple but effective, and I can’t emphasize enough how much my wife and I love the retro style of this speaker.

If you’re looking for a fun, attractive portable speaker that you can happily display, grab the Marshall Emberton III while it’s on sale at its lowest price.
