Sometimes ----- Good things do come in small packages. Very, Very impressed with this portable speaker. Phenomenal Bass reproduction and crystal clear highs as well. JBL has another home run here.

It is an excellent little speaker. It helps if the machine you have it linked to has an equalizer so you can adjust the sound how you want it. It is not super to use to watch videos as it has a split second delay between the sound and the image but that is the issue with all Bluetooth speakers it seems. For listening to music or audio books it is outstanding.

Unbelievable sound from a small speaker. You can blast it and have no distortion. Charge lasts for 20 hours of play. Can't go wrong buying one of these!!!!

Fantastic sound, easy blue tooth connectivity. Big sound for a smaller portable devise. Happy I bought mine. Wishing I had bought to when the sale was on.

This JBL speaker is an awesome powerful little speaker! I use it all the time out at the pool or when i am grilling. It is loud and crystal clear when I blast some OZZY!!

I owned and was the DJ of my own business from the mid 80’ to early 2000’s, I played music from the 40’s to the time frame I was in, and all types of venues. SOUND quality, and loudness was always a must…..back in the day stacking Peavy 18 Internationals with Black Widow woofers, produced the perfect sound for every occasion……and today, @ 60 years old, I STILL LOVE MUSIC, AND SOUND MATTERS!!! I have purchased a few of the “Sound Systems” that have all you need except the music…and I use them for my personal use; but dragging them out for a short time is really overkill…..and I love to listen to Music while in the shower; a different self contained unit……again overkill. I happened to be walking by this JBL speaker playing in Sam’s Club, and it caught my ear. I, being me, turned it up, grabbed one in the Box and bought it……it is portable, but I will be picking up 1 more this week! I will have one in my workshop, and one in my home!!! The sound quality is AMAZING for such a small speaker!!! The highs don’t crackle, and the Bass, OUTSTANDING AND NOT MUFFLED!!! As for the JBL Brand……I have 2 sets of JBL LIVE PRO 2 EAR BUDS, and have for over a year on both pairs! One pair I use to run with, and lawn maintenance, and the other when I am just relaxing in the sun, or shoveling snow, or using my snowblower!!! I also have an older wired JBL earbuds and they still work today as they did the day I bought them!!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND JBL PRODUCTS, AND BELIEVE YOU WON’T FIND A BETTER SPEAKER IN THE SAME PRICE RANGE!!!! Crank it up!!!

For the money this thing works great. Plenty loud enough to listen to the baseball games in the garage with tools running in the background. The battery life is pretty good so long as you don't have the volume cranked all the way up. At full volume and playing music though, it only lasts about 3-4 hours. Just be aware, this thing is NOT compatible with the JBL app. If you don't need to link it to other speakers to make a poor man's surround sound system, then that fact doesn't affect you.

Great sound worth the $$$

The blue tooth consistently drops making the listening experience unbearable.

Doesn’t pair with other jbl speakers. Felt like we were tricked. Apparently this model is not supposed to pair with other speakers.
