Big vibes, pocket-sized. The JBL Go 5 has serious audio power. Legendary JBL sound shines brightly through crystal-clear details and deep, rich bass that feels louder than should be possible in this palm-sized casing. But the Go 5 is more than iconic sound. New edge lighting powers a soft ambient glow—and you also get selectable themes and visual cues for powering on, pairing, and battery life. And with up to 10 hours of battery life, you can count on the JBL Go 5 to soundtrack your day from morning til night. Take this IP68 waterproof, dust-proof, and drop-proof speaker anywhere—and never worry about a surprise rain shower or accidental fumble again. And hey—when the party calls for louder sound, this speaker still rocks. Bump two Go 5 speakers together to link them up through AirTouch for true stereo sound, or use Auracast to pair up to JBL Auracast-enabled speakers and turn the jams up even louder.

Like that newest season of our favorite show, the JBL Charge is back and better than ever. The Charge 6 is everything we've come to love with new twists, higher stakes, and a bigger punch. With sound that slaps like never before, better connectivity, sturdier build, and up to 28 hours of playtime, the Charge 6 is a portable audio beast. How do we pack more sound in the same iconic portable speaker package? With some redesigned hardware and our brand new JBL AI Sound Boost - a clever audio processing algorithm we've included under the hood. The end result? The Charge 6 hits way above it's weight class, filling our space with full, rich, immersive sound - without taking more space on our table. The Charge 6 is also one of the toughest portable speakers out there. It's waterproof, dustproof and drop-proof so it takes a beating without missing a beat. And, true to its name, the Charge 6 still includes a built-in powerbank to charge your mobile device while you continue to jam out to your tunes. What could be better than a new JBL Charge 6 in our lives? How about two? or four? Now we can effortlessly connect with other Auracast-enabled JBL speakers to cover more ground (and more ears) with the same playlist, whether we're throwing the most sensational rooftop soiree or getting the crowd hyped before the ultimate pickle ball tourney. This is THE JBL Charge 6. Portable audio like we've never heard it before.
