I ditched my $54 JBL Go 5 to listen to music on the $49 8BitDo Retro Cube 2 speaker — and 8BitDo does something JBL doesn't

A beige, red and black 8BitDo Retro Cube 2 Bluetooth speaker.

It isn't often that I come across a product that makes me say, "Damn, I want to keep that on my desk forever."

That very thing happened last week, when I tested the 8BitDo Retro Cube 2, one of the best Bluetooth speakers around. I took one look at it and said, "Mine! Mine!" like the seagulls from Finding Nemo.
