JBL - Charge 2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Red

The jbl portable stereo speaker system worked as advertised plus it outperformed the more expensive BEATS pill stereo system in bass production and price point, my wife loves it also as any happily married man would admit that a happy wife is a happy life....

It has all the sound for its size cheaper than a bose but very competitive, i tried lots of speakers and this suited my pocket and taste great buy AND HAS A USB PORT FOR CHARGING!

I really like the sound quality. I use this speaker at work, it syncs with my iPhone and shuts off if the phone leaves my desk. That usually happens when I leave for lunch or at the end of the day. When I come back I just connect the Bluetooth and push the On button and it continues to play. It works for me!

I purchased this to use with iPhone and iPad. It performs as expected with no problems.

I owned 2 JBL speakers of the first generation, but this one sound even better, and the black finish is great, excellent sound, quality, battery, I really recommend it.

I got my JBL Charge 2 as a gift. It's perfect for sound quality. Not too big to carry wherever you need to hear great sounds. I would recommend this product to any music lover who enjoys good sounds.

MY JBL is worth it's weight in gold. it shattered record with it's sound and when it fell from the second floor balcony onto a concrete floor underneath. today it still has the same great performance. simply outstanding, amazing, clear, loud and the best speaker you can find. superb!!

My first portable Bluetooth speaker was a Jabra Solemate, which I still have. It's principally used in the bathroom during the time I spend getting ready for work or whatever. It has been a fine device, but it's sound quality was never anything to get excited about. I had been thinking about replacing it for maybe the last year and while there are a number of products out there with solid reviews, they all tend to be more money than i want to spend on something with such limited use. I had also purchased this model's predecessor for my daughter and was kind of envious as I thought it sounded noticeably better than my Soulmate. But to be fair the Solemate was an older product and I think it looked better. But this latest JBL... wow.... reviews had been solid and now I understand why. The sound quality is, in my opinion, a marked step up from my Solemate. The entire spectrum.. lows to highs... are much improved over my now relegated to the closet Solemate. (I'll find it a good home) This JBL looks good (I went with white, like my Solemate). Maintains a reasonable size (perfect for the bathroom: counter-top or on top of the towel rack). Feels solid and looks well-made. No connectivity issues or problems. But it's really the sound that leaps out. I knew my Solemate was what it was when I bought it: a $90 speaker. I got what I paid for. But at $120 I truly believe the JBL is worth every additional penny. The improvement in sound.. heck.. the sound quality stands on its own. It's easy to compare it to my Solemate, but if this were my first Bluetooth speaker I'd still be very impressed. The side-firing bass drivers really help kick up the impact of bass. The mids and highs are reasonably clear and accurate; more so than I expected. Or put it this way... why I purchased and first listened to the Solemate I was "Ok. This is fine." With the JBL I was "Wow. I didn't know a small Bluetooth speaker could sound this good." I can also report that I believe the overall quality of the mids and highs are improved by placing the speaker on one end. Or on the towel rack. There is something about the reflection of the music off the counter top that seems to muddle the mids and highs. Voices become less distinct is the biggest impact. And I don't find the bass impacted by placing it on one end. My only criticism is that it comes with a wall wart for charging. Just something to lose, unlike the Solemate which just had a straight cord for charging. If your needs are generally small and you understand that this is a portable Bluetooth speaker and not something meant to fill a bedroom with sound or have a party with, then you should be, I hope, very impressed.
