I don't know why HK is frequently and intentionally cryptic about the exact model. They must know the model difference is difficult to identify by photo and the list price is misleading. Even the description omits every detail that would reveal it is a different model.
If these are sponsored ads, Slickdeals should require HK to use better model identification.

For what it's worth, I got myself the wiim mini lately and plugged it into the aux port of the 3, and with Spotify direct and lossless audio the 3 sounds even better than before. but even via BT it's already a great speaker.
I am amazed they still make and sell this older model at this point. And still sucks that they don't have a proper app for updates or equalizer settings.

This model is good but it would be worth the wait to try and catch the Go + Play 3 deal when it inevitably comes back around.
That being said, go into this understanding that both models will have shortcomings. Sound quality is great but you can get a ton more features in speakers that cost half as much. Neither of these models have app support, only three basic EQ settings that are not intuitive to find. Stereo pairing the Go + Play 3 is a manual process that must be done with every single power cycle. Period. There is no way around that. I've checked forums. I've contacted HK support. If you buy two, the TWS sounds absolutely incredible but it takes away from the entire experience when you have to manually set it up every time you turn them on. I have $20 speakers that instantly pair as soon as I turn them on so HK really dropped the ball on some super basic features in some amazing speakers.
BTW Harman Kardon was bought by Samsung in 2017, but is still headquartered in Connecticut.
This isn't intended to be a "this instead of that" comment, but I ended up going with two Sonos 100 and have been totally satisfied. Smaller footprint, stereo setup capability, much better sound quality.
