  • INSANE Speaker! Quality, volume, battery, and features make this THE BEST!
Style: Charge 5 Color: Black
The JBL Charge 5 is the BEST speaker I have ever owned. I have had the average run-of-the-mill bluetooth speaker that has around a $20 value, for over a year, and I thought it was good sound quality, and I never thought I needed something “fancy.” Well, that speaker started having problems, and I was carefully searching for another speaker. I found this speaker and I thought I would try something new. I only had one thought as I played music out of it for the first time. WOW! The JBL Charge 5 has the best sound quality I had ever heard from a bluetooth speaker. I don’t ever plan on getting another speaker; that is, a speaker that isn’t JBL or an upgraded version of the Charge 5. The clarity is absolutely stunning! The bass is DEEP. I can feel the bass through my whole room! The volume is insane. I rarely have it over 50%, but in the event where I need it louder, I turn it up. I once had music filling a whole event center that was quite a reasonable size. If I could choose one word to describe this speaker, it would be “Stunning,” “Powerful,” or “Supercharged!(Pun intended.)” On that note, the battery life on this thing is long! I once had the speaker provide some background noise for about two days and the battery life was barely lower than 70% (I think…it’s hard to tell exactly with the battery indicator; definitely above 60%). Of course, the battery drains quicker when you have the speaker playing at high volumes. Also, it can take some water. Some being a little, I prefer not to put it to the test. Here is my takeaway: DESIGN: 9/10 Great! I love the fabric covering. The JBL logo is made of metal, which makes it look very nice and official. The buttons are easy to distinguish, and the light is on the power, bluetooth, and there is a ring of light around those two buttons when PartyBoost is in effect. There is a battery bar right below the JBL Logo, and it serves as a general battery indicator. You can get the 100%, 75%, 50%, and 25%. You can get more info on the battery via the app. The weight is surprisingly light, considering the volume this speaker is capable of. Although, it isn’t the most portable of portable speakers as it is a little big and has a football shape. You can get a case for it that has a strap though. For the skip feature, you have to press the play/pause button twice. Make sure that when you do this, you maintain a consistent interval of time between the two presses. If you do it too fast it will just pause. If you do it too slow, it will just pause then play again. BATTERY: 10/10 Perfect! I absolutely love the battery. I’m the kind of person that prefers the longest possible battery, and doing whatever it takes to preserve it. I don’t have to worry much about this battery. Like I said, it has provided some low music for almost 2 days and the battery wasn’t that affected. However, the battery life will drain much more rapidly when using the speaker at high volumes. I currently use this speaker with a projector to watch TV. I have watched lots of movies and TV shows, and I don’t have to pay much attention to the battery. I just plug it in every other night, and it does great! And having a battery bank is the cherry on top. I haven’t used it much, as I keep most of my devices fully charged, but I think it is awesome that it has a battery bank if I need it. SOUND QUALITY: 10/10(10.5/10) Stunning! I didn’t expect that sound quality could get this good for a bluetooth speaker. JBL means business! When I turn it to high volumes, I can actually feel air blowing from it! On that note, it can go REALLY high in volume. I did not expect that at all. Insane volume. As stated earlier, I use this with a projector, and for all my TV. Watching movies with this speaker makes the entire experience cinematic! A much bigger upgrade compared to the sound TV’s come with. I would even say that it can contend with some soundbars out there (not the JBL Surround Sound System though…that one seems like the top-tier of JBL). This speaker was my first experience with JBL speakers (other than the car speakers) and I was very impressed. It has been the best sound experience I have ever had. Really clear and crisp audio, and when I say “really,” I mean truly! When playing music, I can hear every instrument, every breath, and incredible bass. The bass is a superstar in and of itself. Like I said, the bass shakes my whole room when playing music, and when watching movies! The side radiators really, really pack a punch! There is even an adjustable EQ on the app. Though I prefer what the speaker came with. It is a little pricey, (just a little) but know that you get what you pay for! I don’t think that I can ever go back to what I had… PARTYBOOST: 9/10 Great! I had one, so I bought two more so I could create a surround sound with my TV. It kinda worked. I think I had some sort of connectivity issue, so all I’ll say is that the range might not be that great, so make sure you keep them somewhat close. If you have a projector that has bluetooth and you want to use PartyBoost, I would consider researching what you can do with the Bluetooth latency (As stated earlier, I watch TV with this, and please note there IS some lag between sound and video, as bluetooth will do. However, that is just bluetooth technology, not JBL. Over time my ears and eyes have adjusted, and now it is not that big a deal). In addition to standard bluetooth latency, PartyBoost will make this delay greater (I ended up returning the other two because of this issue). For music, this is not a problem, because it is just sound and no video. With music, PartyBoost is pretty cool! It really creates a much louder and much cooler sound experience. You can even use just two for a stereo effect, and it works great! Overall, this has been the BEST bluetooth speaker experience I have ever had. You better believe I’ll be there for the Charge 6 or 7 or wherever they decide to take this. They really have something good going here. I would 110% recommend this! If you are reading this review, and you would like an upgrade to your typical listening experience, know that this is one of the best out there! And if you catch this at a discounted price, you’ll know you are getting a great deal. JBL has been the best listening experience for me. I will continue buying their products if they keep supplying a high-quality experience. I mean, let the 27,000 ratings with a 4.8 overall rating speak for itself. Here is a simplified pro-con list: PROS -Excellent audio clarity -Excellent bass -Excellent overall sound -Exceptional volume -Long battery life -Battery bank feature -Waterproof feature -Adjustable EQ -Stereo Effect -PartyBoost for multiple speakers CONS -Button timing for the skip track -Could be slightly more portable (We do have the Flip speakers for that though) ... show more

  • Great Blue Tooth Range and Sound!
Style: Charge 5 + Case Color: Red
I don't write reviews too often unless I really like something, and this is one of them. Originally had the Charge2+, which lasted for almost 8 years till the battery life went downhill. Since the Charge 2 held up perfectly for so long despite going on vacations out of country and used repeatedly in various situations, I didn't hesitate to pick up the latest version. I use this Charge 5 primarily for when I go golfing. I put this in the back of the golf cart and enjoy it for 4 hours at a rather high volume. It never goes dead on me despite the lengthy amount of time being used, and I can still hear it well even if I get out of the cart and walk up on the green to putt. There's been times when I've had my phone in my pocket when I do this, and despite being 40 yards away, the connection remains solid. There's be a couple of times when it's rained while on the golf course, but it doesn't phase this speaker. What I need it to do- long battery life, quality sound at high volume, and great blue tooth range, this speaker covers it all. As for the case, it's top notch. The zipper works easily & flawlessly, and has a nice felt lining inside with a custom fit to protect the speaker when not in use. The carbon fiber exterior and carrying handle hold up well, and I don't have a scratch on it. Like most people, I like to take care of my things, and with the durability built into this speaker, it should last for years to come. I have average sized hands, and can grab this speaker with one hand without worrying I'll drop it. The construction of the speaker is rugged, and I have complete confidence it'll hold up to my next international vacation. As for the sound quality, it has good bass for it's class size. With the speaker separation, it provides a nice clear sound enhanced by the bass. I can't stand "tinny" sounding speakers. If it doesn't sound good, I don't wanna hear it. All in all, I'm very happy with this speaker in all aspects. ... show more

  • JBL Charge 5
Style: Charge 5 + Case Color: Blue
I went back and forth and looked at a lot of reviews before choosing this product. I have had JBL products before and know they make good quality products. I wanted a portable speaker that had more sound than what I had. Upon getting this speaker it was boxed nicely and came packaged very well. The literature that was included was nicely printed and the quick start instructions made it easy to get started. The speaker is easy to pair with any bluetooth device and use once you get it paired. I love the fact that you pretty much turn the speaker on and it automatically pairs to your device. This little speaker is well made and is waterproof so that you don't have to worry about your investment getting ruined if you get it wet. This speaker produces a lot of sound and surprisingly a lot of bass for it's size, I ended up buying two of these for my backyard and they pair up easily for stereo sound. Just one of these would fill up my backyard with sound, but with both there is plenty of sound to go around and they sound great. I highly recommend this product and will be buying more JBL products in the future. There are also plenty of color choices if you are looking for a product to fit your style. ... show more

  • Solid purchase for the price
Style: Charge 5 Color: Black
In the price range for this product, it’s hard to beat. There are definitely better sounding portable speakers out there but you are going to pay for it. I bought this JBL and a UE Megaboom. The UE Boom is capable of louder volume but at the sacrifice of detail. At higher volumes, the JBL speaker loses come of its clarity but it remains well balanced. In general, the speaker isn’t overly treble heavy like the Bose, and isn’t bass heavy like the UE Boom. Battery life is good and it will play all day at moderate volume levels plus charge your phone. Also, it uses USB-C to charge. The UE Boom still uses micro. All in all it’s a great product. Happy enough with it that I bought a second one. ... show more
