Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: JBL PartyBox at none against JumpSnip's 2. JBL PartyBox also leads on ratings volume (40K vs 3) and chart position (#99 vs unranked). JumpSnip's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
