  • Charging USB Cable

Q: What is better, jbl charge 4 o boom 3? And why is better? And the duration off battery both?

A: Maybe mine is defective or not made to be played at full volume because it only gives roughly 3:30 hours of play on full volume. my JBL charge 3 had consistently given me more than 8 hours of play on full volume for 8 months until recently. Now, speakers aren't made to be constantly played on full volume and I understand that but if you use yours outdoor and play on full volume like I do, JBL speakers are the best , they have more powerful and longer lasting batteries. As far as sound quality they are pretty much the same.

Q: How big is the speker

A: The size of this speaker is as follows Product Height 7.2 inches Product Width 2.9 inches

Q: Anyone have a problem with the charging port? Can't tell if it is a manufacturing error, or its just purposefully difficult to connect cable to port? Thanks!

A: This is the only thing I don’t like about it - it’s extremely hard to get the connection in. .. And I work for IT, for a living.

Q: Does this speaker have an auxiliary input or is it bluetooth only?

A: There is no auxiliary input in this device to use an outside source only Bluetooth. There is only a charging connection.

Q: I see that there is up to a $30 difference between different colors. The Storm is currently the cheapest at $119 whereas the black one is $149 (with other prices in between). Are these different models/colors identical other than the exterior color?

A: Yup. They are all the same except color. If there is a specific color you wanted that is more expensive than the others, I would recommend looking for the color in a different store and using Bestbuy’s price match to get it in store if you wanted it soon

Q: Just bought BOOM 3, got home and noticed note on the box that stated "Made for Apple iPhone/iPad". Same statement in some fine print inside. I do not own any Apple products. My computer has MS Windows and phone is android. Should I return this speak?

A: Yes, I use it with my Samsung Android phone. In addition, I use it with my Dell laptop and desktop. It connects via Bluetooth. The sound quality is also very good.

4.9(33)

Easy to grab and easy to hold, the JBL Grip is the speaker that’s always within reach. The JBL Grip is powerful for its size. JBL Grip may be compact, but its pro sound is big—punchy bass and crystal-clear highs. Whether it’s setting the vibe for mindful morning stretches or soundtracking lazy beach days, the JBL Grip is our go-to. The built-in ambient light on the back panel adapts to the moment, so you can set the mood for chill date nights and spontaneous hangs. Use the convenient side-panel control button to switch between light themes, so the mood is always right whether you're winding down or turning up. Did we mention it’s super tough? The JBL Grip is built to handle anything. With an industry-leading IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating, it goes wherever we do. Its drop-proof design means it can survive a hard fall onto concrete—no party fouls here. All that, plus up to 14 hours of playtime with Playtime Boost. When friends roll through, we’re using Auracast to stereo pair two Grips for instant surround sound. Why stop there? We can connect as many JBL Auracast-enabled speakers as we’ve got for an all-out sound experience. Solo chillin’ or vibing with the crew—the JBL Grip is as flexible as we are.
