Customer Ratings & Reviews

I honestly bought this specifically for my shower and it's become part of my daily routine. I have a walk-in shower with one of those big rainfall shower heads, so I wanted something that could actually be heard over the water. This little speaker has ZERO issues with that. Every evening (I shower at night) I power it on, throw on some Prince, and sing my heart out while I'm getting ready for bed. I'm pretty sure my neighbors have heard some questionable performances by now, but that's not JBL's fault. Blame that on our thin walls! Haha The battery lasts way longer than I expected, Bluetooth connects almost instantly and I don't have to baby it around water. For something this small, it puts out a surprising amount of sound without getting distorted. Especially with the way the sound bounces around the walk-in. I really don't have anything bad to say about this little gem, but I am required to: one thing I don't like is how it favors my phone, over others. It will instantly connect to my phone but others have issues sometimes. I have to actively turn my bluetooth OFF in order for anyone else to connect. I can't even use my airpods while the JBL is on because the Clip is like a jealous girlfriend; VERY possessive! I don't think you can go wrong with this one. It's a keeper.

Bought it in January and use it [at home / outdoors / at work]. Sound is clear and surprisingly powerful for its size. The clip is handy [for my bag / bike]. Battery lasts [a good while].

I use the JBL Clip 5 constantly at work. I have a labor-intensive job and I’m often working alone doing heavy lifting, and this speaker really helps keep my mind off the grind and keeps me in a good head space throughout the day. The sound is clear, loud enough for outdoor work, and the clip makes it easy to attach anywhere. The waterproof feature is no joke—I was working in the rain the other day and had zero issues. It kept playing like nothing was happening. I liked it so much that I bought a second one in the camo color, and I even gifted one to a family member for Christmas. Everyone’s been impressed with it. Great sound, durable, reliable, and absolutely worth the money. Great purchase.

Honestly impressed with this speaker. The sound quality is way better than I expected for something this small. It gets surprisingly loud, the bass is solid, and the clip design makes it super convenient to carry around or attach to a backpack. Battery life has also been really good so far. Perfect for everyday use, travel, or just listening to music around the house. Definitely worth the price.

I’m really impressed with this speaker! The sound quality is clear, loud, and well-balanced for such a compact size. The bass is surprisingly strong and it doesn’t distort even at higher volumes. It’s also very easy to connect via Bluetooth and the battery life lasts a long time, which makes it perfect for outings, trips, or just using at home. The design is cute, durable, and easy to carry around. Definitely worth the purchase — I highly recommend it!

I’ve always been happy with their speakers. This one is no exception. Love the sound, size and charge it holds. Would highly recommend for everyday use.

I bought the blue colored one and I have been using it since almost everyday at home, my car or anywhere I sit. It’s a good quality in terms of sound, design, battery life and portability.

This speaker is the real deal, I clip it onto my belt & walk around work & listen to my music & the sound is outstanding, Thank you JBL for making a portable speaker that was truly made just for me, I'm a very satisfied customer

We bought this speaker to take camping where we also go to a swimming pond and fishing lake. It has held up to occasional rain, holds a pretty good charge, and it can get pretty loud with good sound. The only downside for some (doesnt bother us) is that if there is nowhere to hang it, it doesnt stand or lean well against things. Would recommend and buy again :)

Sounds good and voices of singers shine through. I have the go 4 in camouflage and it not as loud as the clip one. The clip 5 has a clip so it is convenient to hook on bags the only down side is it doesn't stand upright. You would have to place it flat and listen to the music that way. It has good sound and i don't play it too loud battery last long. Charges with type c charging wire. Needs wall charging plug separately. Red light for charging and turns off when fully charged. Haven't tested it waterproof has some weight to it.

I was skeptical initially, concerned that it might not sound clear. However, I could hear the JBL speaker throughout the house, My husband remarked, "WOW" that little speaker is sharp is loud, " it was clear and sharp, and it connected immediately to the Bluetooth. The clip was convenient to hang from anywhere.

Small speaker but has great sound. The clip makes it convenient for on the go. I use it on my kayak, in the shower, and while Im doing work in the backyard. The battery last for all my activities. Works perfectly for music and audiobooks.

Has good battery life. Where it really shines is when you connect two or more of them together. When you do this you basically have portable surround sound or you can play music in all the rooms in your house.

I found the JBL clip 5 a solid rugged build with nice sound in mono, and almost room filling with TWS engaged. It’s good at 7 watts. So it’s not gonna shake the room, but on the bike or walking, path it’ll help you create whatever audio mood you’re looking for. I’d get a pair vs just one.

HONESTLY! For some quality Vibes! This is a top tier speaker you could ask for! From the sound, style, and it’s easy to use features it ROCKS!

The JBL Speaker delivers clear audio with good bass for such a small device. It’s lightweight, durable, and the battery lasts all day. Perfect for portable use, it offers excellent value for its size.

I use this speaker for work and it is great to have around. The sound is awesome and it holds up well to my hectic and physical work schedule!

This thing really delivers for the price. It sounds better than you’d expect for the size. The clip is a cool design feature and is sturdy and well built.

I love it. It’s amazing. The sound is great. It’s very convenient. You can clip it on your clothes and go.

I’m loving the new clip 5. I have the clip 4 and there is a noticeable difference in sound quality. I also love the way I’m able to use the JBL app the change or balance the sound. I love that I. An clip it on my bike when I go for a ride, sounds great at the beach can’t wait to take it out on the lake or river while tubing to see how it holds up in water. And it’s in my favorite color purple. Definitely recommend
