The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

My personal experience of using the product JBL CHARGE 5 - Portable Bluetooth Speaker With IP67 Waterproof And USB Charge Out - Gray. I bought a column in early July, I have been using it for a month, I am satisfied with the purchase. The column was already on the beach, hiking, etc. My friend has a charge 4, as for me the sound has become better, the bass has been slightly tightened, the highs are cleaner than in 4k. In general, the purchase is satisfied!

Pros
  • sound battery waterproof portability
Cons
  • Marked fabric, but although washed under the tap and normal. Open USB TYPE C although this is more plus than minus, but the sand goes there perfectly

I like the product, the quality did not disappoint.

Well, it’s just that there is something to compare with, there are great acoustics that play very well, and this, of course, is small, it was expected from him more according to reviews, for everything else, maybe people are satisfied

Got pros: Pleasant signature JBL sound, juicy, elastic, and at a large one it plays quite loudly, you can organize a mini-disco in nature. Got cons: stereo speakers of this size have less frequency coverage, so it both basses and squeaks well, but alas, mono.

In general, everything is not bad, but I expected more.

Not worth your money. 40W in terms of sound power does not differ from the younger model with its 20 instead of spent 12 called for 40 minutes, pieces of adhesive tape were glued on top - there were doubts about the originality of the column, If you do not twist the maximum, then the bottoms, the bottoms are not enough,

Pros
  • Not bad sound
Cons
  • Received an opened box

Finally the perfect Bluetooth speaker!

I love this speaker! I love the Charge 4 and the Charge 5 is even better! The sound quality is excellent. It's the perfect size, light weight, well made and everything I wanted in a portable Bluetooth speaker!

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • No

Meets all expectations

Just got charge 5 and it's amazing. So far it has exceeded all expectations. Before purchasing, I watched many video reviews and settled on the Charge 5 that fits my needs. The Flip would have worked, but the size of the battery and the ability to charge other devices multiple times helped decide on this model.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • No auto mode

Battery only lasts 4 hours!

Was hoping the JBL5 battery could last all day as advertised but after 2 attempts with 2 different JBL5s the battery only lasted 4 hours at the beach. The sound quality is much better than the JBL4, but if it can't play music all day as it claims, it's worth looking elsewhere.

Pros
  • Featured
Cons
  • Exchange Availability

Amazing speaker suitable for portable bluetooth speakers

I used to have a Charge 3 but was having battery issues so decided to upgrade. I've seen a lot of videos saying the sound was similar to previous generations. I absolutely disagree that this Charge 5 is an amazing speaker and the bass is ridiculous for its size. I can fill my whole house with music from just this speaker, believe me this JBL did the right thing.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Nothing

Terribly distorted sound AVOID

I received this speaker about 15 minutes ago. Plugged in and started listening. It was very easy to connect. Unfortunately, that's the only positive thing. At 50% leverage, the bass is out of your hearing range due to distortion. Above 35-40%, the high frequencies sound like they're coming from a blown speaker. So incredibly disappointed. In comparison, my JBL Clip 2 sounds louder without distortion.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Good but not great

Updated from Charge 3.

Updated from Charge 3 just because I'm a dirty consumer who loves the latest toys and I can say there's definitely an improvement in sound quality ! JBL is still my customer of portable speakers and almost all of my friends also own jbl products. They are built to last and sound great. Unless you're a big audiophile you're probably better off buying a Charge 3 or Charge 4 to save money, but I'll say I can tell a difference in sound quality.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

Pack a punch! - Portable speakers and docking stations

As a speaker enthusiast, I have had many different brands of speakers. Harmon Kardon (owner of JBL) has always been my favorite brand. I wanted to buy a speaker that I could take with me when I travel and not worry about the battery draining on long weekends. The price of the speaker is significantly higher for its category. You pay for quality, it looks good and sounds good. The addition of a tweeter and a sleek new design is a completely different beast than previous generations. If you're…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Newer model could have been chosen

Great Value Portable Bluetooth Speakers

We needed a portable Bluetooth speaker for poolside music and trips to the beach (and other activities). While size and weight were somewhat important, it didn't need to fit in a cup holder or anything. I've been a live sound audiophile for decades and have my own high-end speaker system, play in a band and DJ for select family and friends on my equipment as a hobby. I just mentioned that so you know I know a good sound when I hear it. Ergonomics: The device can be carried comfortably in one…

Pros
  • Sturdy Finish
Cons
  • Damaged
