Great sound, long battery life & easy to use. What more could you ask for?

Good quality sound with deep bass & bright, clear highs. Long battery life & ease of operation. Tried several other brands, my JBL Charge 5 is the best yet.

Great speaker but affected with my optical mouse.

The sound is great, I love JBL products, but I sadly realized that the sound quality is affected by my optical mouse. When I was using for the first time my JBL speaker I suddenly notices that the sound was terrible, as if there was a false-contact in the sepaker, so I increased and reduced the volume trying to isolate the problem but I didn't notice any change. So I decided to use my JBL partybox on-the-go instead, and no problem at all, and no other speaker had failed in terms of sound quality, only my new Charge5. Then, I thought that my bluetooth dongle could be causing such a failure but when I turned off my optical mouse I realized that the sound became great such as in the other speakers. I tried several times this test with the mouse and my JBL and I was convinced that my optical mouse interferes with my JBL Charge5 speaker. Too sad for me, but... what can I do? I will stop using my optical mouse when enjoying my music, or definitely I will use my other speaker, instead. But... great sound, anyway. I cannot give 5 stars, not even 4 this time.Read full review...

Love it!

What a great little speaker! It's smaller than I thought it would be but it's loud and clear, believe me. The smallness makes it very easy to transport and the usb-c makes it super easy to charge. The condition was good, it looked a little dusty but no scratches or anything like that. I personally love my new speaker!Read full review...

Powerful portable speaker

A bit pricey, but it does deliver clear LOUD sound. Great speaker for dummies because it is so easy to use. One charge seems to last forever. Awesome styling & love that it seems to be invincible.

Booming audio quality from a little dynamo.

Seriously clean, well designed, booming audio clarity, and most impressive unit from JBL, once again. The epitome of portable bluetooth speakers when it comes to audio dynamics and overall design elements. The bold new look with JBL emblazoned on the mesh is such an eyecatcher. Can't imagine how JBL would be able to surpass this production model in their next generation line of Charges.

Now it is married to my first Charge 5 purchased a week before, and my 2 JBL Flip 5 units for the ultimate stereo effect.

Fantastic Bluetooth Speaker

This is the best portable Bluetooth speaker out there. I have owned others, but this far surpasses all of them in terms of quality and immersive sound. There is also an EQ app to adjust the sound to your liking. It pairs quickly with my devices and I haven’t even gotten close to maximum volume, that’s how loud the JBL Charge 5 is. You currently can’t beat this speaker for the price.Read full review...

Sound Quality is Awesome!

Not only is the product itself solidly built, but the sound quality is awesome and beyond my wildest expectations. When cranking it up, the entire room is filled with crystal clear high frequencies and booming low frequencies. I have not had any dropouts with the bluetooth and the battery life seems to last forever at normal listening sound levels.Read full review...

Nice Sound in a portable package - great battery life

I really like the Charge 5. It has full sound for the size, great battery life, and is durably made. I keep it in my fishing boat and use it around my shop. This is my second - I gave my first one away to a friend.Read full review...

Great bluetooth speaker

This speaker is everything is wanted! It gets plenty loud, the sound quality and battery life are good, and it connected to Bluetooth with no problem. Excellent value!

Less than advertised improvement

The sound isn't as great an improvement over the Charge3, which I own also, as seen in some reviews. The "bass boost" doesn't increase as much as advertised, at least my wife and I don't notice much of a difference. And it isn't as stable as the previous version. The flat base it is supposed to stand on is rather small considering the larger size of the speakers themselves. As a matter of fact I slightly bumped the end table it was sit on and it rolled off onto the floor. My Charge3 was satisfactory. I really didn't need to "upgrade" to the Charge5.Read full review...
