Customer Ratings & Reviews

I picked this up on a whim because I left my usual speaker at home and needed one for an event. Let me just say—this thing delivered. The bass hits hard enough to shake the walls, and the highs are crystal clear. It easily filled the space and made the entire event feel alive. If I had the extra cash, I’d go for the bigger version in a heartbeat—but this one still holds its own like a champ. What I really appreciate is its versatility. It’s compact enough to place on a desk or tuck into a corner without drawing too much attention, but don’t let the size fool you—it packs serious power. It looks sleek and low-profile, yet it sounds like something twice its size. Battery life is another huge win. I was surprised at how long it stayed charged. Even after hours of continuous use, it was still going strong. Whether you’re using it indoors or taking it outside for a gathering, this speaker doesn’t quit. The light show is just the cherry on top. It adds a fun, vibrant vibe and syncs beautifully with the music. It totally elevated the party atmosphere. Plus, the Bluetooth connection is lightning fast and super reliable—I was connected and playing music in seconds. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a powerful, portable, and reliable sound system with a little extra flair!

Great speaker! Very loud and the perfect size. Sometimes the battery acts up and doesn’t want to turn on for a while even if it’s fully charged

The sound is great. It’s not that heavy. I like the multicolor lights on it. The set up is easy. It’s a good speaker to have

This small speaker has taken over the world. The sound is amazing. I have two of them in my room pretty loud close the lights make it beautiful. depending on the mood I can carry it and take the party everywhere with me which I have. I also gave my dad one as a present. I definitely would recommend this speaker is just right the right side is the right down the right base. I bought the warranty for night time because of anything I could just exchange it it’s pretty small but it has a big down and I am very picky about Speakers , but this one’s convinced me at the first time.I used to every day. I actually took the other speakers set them aside. And I’m enjoying the JBL Speakers in my room or wherever I go I’ll take one

Man what can I say about this amazing JBL speaker!! Not only the best speaker out in the market but the most amazing bass experience you’ll ever get for the price. But the only thing I hate is the life of the battery. I’m a guy who love listening to music 24/7 or at least 8 hours of my work day. It’ll last a good while if you dont have the bass or the lights on but over all it’s good buy for me . Good job JBL one more customer satisfied !!!

Small, portable and gReat sound. Excellent bass. I love JBL speakers. This is my fifth JBL speaker. I have 5 different sizes.

Very loud for its size. I like that it is very portable and the sound of it is very clear.

Love the speaker. Beautiful audio Quality with deep bass. Specially for its size and price. Worth the price. Only thing that could be improved a bit, is the battery life. Other than the battery its an amazing speaker.

I gifted this speaker to my boyfriend and he loved it! We always take out in parties and everyone is a fan of it, the sound, the lights, and he even downloaded the app that goes with it so you can play the different sound effects!

[Employee of bestbuy] Super bassy and gets very loud. Lighting is superb and the ease of connection through bluetooth or 3.5mm jack is fantastic. Battery life at high volumes is quite low though, expect 3-4hrs realistically if playing loud music.

I’m a music lover and the sound quality is amazing, this speaker packs a punch, perfect for any get together! I enjoy using the app that goes with it. You can connect a microphone to it, I bought one so that I could sing along to my favorite songs! Also it’s super easier and comfortable to carry around.

Very loud has a good bass overall very good if battery lasted longer it will be very good

Bought the JBL partybox encore essential to replace a broken bluetooth speaker. The sound is amazing! And BASS! You got it! I am super happy about this purchase!!

I bought this wireless speaker to compliment the music that I listened and movies. It did not disappoint me. Full sound to entertain you from playing music and movies. Decent bass and excellent thump to rock you. Highly recommended.

Absolutely love this mobile unit!! The cubed size is exactly what I was looking for. The sound is absolutely phenomenal and I would recommend this for anybody looking for a portable speaker unit for indoor/outdoor use.

Honestly I loved this purchase I gifted this to my dad for Father’s Day and we have been using this since we got it the battery life is awesome and aswell as the audio sound it feels incredible I will 100 percent recommend getting it and as well I love how it’s not heavy at all and love how you can carry it anywhere

Man l got this speaker last minute for my fiance’s party yesterday and when I tell you this did not disappoint us! The speaker have great sound and the bass really thumps! I definitely recommend to buy for a party inside or out.

Awesome little big speaker. Nice sound, bumps for the size. Download app to customize the sound, lights, and update it. Definitely will buy another to link the two together.

This was my first JBL speaker & I have fallen in LOVE with it ! I recommend this speaker for everyone & trust me, you won’t regret it. It punches sooooo much bass for such a compact speaker. It’s amazing.
