JBL - PartyBox 310 Portable Party Speaker - Black

I was in the market for a Big/Party Speaker recently and I did a lot of research I heard saw Sony speakers, LG, Bose and JBL and I went with this JBL speaker over the 110 Party box. I heard great things about this speaker and was honestly very hesitant. I am very picky about my speakers/sound and while I trust JBL with their smaller speakers, I didn’t know if I’d enjoy the big ones. Well I’m happy to say I am thoroughly impressed! The sound in the Party Box 310 is amazing, clear and it gets very loud! I am someone who listens to many types of music genres so the in-app equalizer being simple is very helpful! Sometimes I love being a Bass Head and the Bass on the JBL does not disappoint whatsoever! The battery life of 18 hours is insane because I have yet to kill the battery in one use! The portability is also amazing! The handle feels sturdy and it’s not so overbearingly heavy that I couldn’t pick it up which makes the addition of the grab handles on the speaker a nice touch.

I bought my first 310 when it was released at the end of October 2020. It was everything I was looking for in a portable speaker. I wanted something with good sound quality and decent bass. This speaker exceeded my expectations! The sound quality is excellent and there's more bass than I expected. I use it a lot in my work van since the factory radio is awful, you can really feel the bass in the cab. I've also taken it to a couple of jobsites (I'm in construction), but only ones I know the speaker is pretty safe from getting damaged. But I have received a lot of compliments on how good the speaker sounds. I have had multiple people ask the price, and hesitate about it, but then as I show them the light show, the app, the pullout handle, the wheels, and of course they're hearing the sound quality, they say they're probably going to buy one. Most of the time, when you bring a speaker to a jobsite, people just go with it and listen to whatever as background noise, but with this speaker, everyone always has to come check it out. This speaker is so good, I had to hear it paired together with another so I bought a second one. Two of them together sound great with the same sound signature, but now with an expanded stereo field. And everything is very easy to do in the app. I turn on the speakers and the one pairs with my phone right away, I go to the Partybox app, click on TWS, the second speakers shows up so I click on that, and stereo. You can switch to just party mode, where they both play as two mono speakers. If you push on either speaker icon it'll light up so you can see which one is the Left or Right channel. There are two levels of Bass Boost. It sounds like Bass Boost 1 is for more lower bass, and Bass Boost 2 is more mid bass. I keep mine locked on Bass Boost 1 as I like the lower frequency bass better. Anyway, the Partybox 310 is an awesome speaker. If you're on the fence, just get it, you'll be happy. Pros: portable, long battery life, great sound quality, pull out handle and wheels, splashproof rated, pairs easily to another same model JBL, very easy to use companion app Cons: I have nothing bad to say about this speaker

If your looking for a big Bluetooth speaker...look no further and get this. The JBL party box 310 is amazing in every way. I use this speaker outdoors and even put in the trunk of my race car and it sounds absolutely amazing. Battery lasts for hours and when plugged in it sounds even better and you can jam out all night. Love that if has a microphone hookup and guitar hook up as well or you can run 2 microphones and do karaoke which makes this extremely fun when you have company over. Speaker has lights that you can customize through a phone app as well. I'm glad i purchased it and even considering picking up a second one which you can run together as a left and right speaker. Hope this helps you make your decision.

This speaker is a really good speaker your getting what you paid for i would say its loud when its not plugged in but its louder when you plug it in if your looking for more bass i say get 2 or get the 710 you can pair them both and it gets really loud i would say better then samsung and the sony speakers the sound quality of the 310 is good if you want to control it and make it better use the app and the battery life is okay if you turn it all the way it last 2 - 3 hours but if you plug it in it last all day and night and the range on the speaker is pretty good as well the bass fills up the room its a wide range and the tweeters get a long range as well

To give some background I had been looking for a large more powerful Bluetooth Speaker as I already own several small Bluetooth speakers as well as the JBL Pulse 3. And I learned that between my JBL pulse and other branded Bluetooth speakers that the JBL has a extremely noticeable difference in audio quality! I researched and compared the JBL PartyBox On The Go, Boombox 100, 300 and 310. I finally decided on the 310 because it had a handle and wheels making it easier to move around the house (in doors or outdoors and Garage) plus unlike the others it had an IPX4 water resistant rating and as I live in Florida sudden rain showers and splashes around our swimming pool could be an issue and I didn’t want to panic if it got splashed or rained on suddenly! The IPX4 gives me peace of mind that it can take a little water and give me time to get it out of the rain. I also chose the 310 over the 100 as it has a much larger internal battery than the 100 and the 310 can run on Battery, AC and DC Power while the 100 only runs off it’s battery so if the battery stops working you can’t use the speaker. I have played the 310 on battery for between 4-7hrs and still had quite a bit of charge left on the battery (Speaker volume between 40-70% and level 1 Bass Boost and no light show). I chose the 310 over the 300 as the 310 is IPX4, has a handle and wheels and the interactive JBL PartyBox App for my iPhone XR! The sound on this 310 is simply amazing it is so clear and the Bass is amazing! In MHO it’s worth spending a bit more to get the added features over the partybox 100 and 300. Plus spend the extra $$$ to get the JBL sound performance so you won’t have any regrets later! I used this speaker allot over the Holidays and wether playing Christmas Music or Jamming our for New Years Eve this Speaker does not disappoint and has amazing sound and really shakes the house!! I highly recommend this Speaker and our Family Loves it......it’s exactly what I was looking for!!

Initially, I opted for the Sony 700. The Sony was smarter looking. I got the Sony home and listened to it and was impressed with the sound but all the reviews said the JBL was the better choice of the two. I kept the Sony for 13 days and I decided to bring it back and swap it out with the JBL PartyBox 310. I AM SO GLAD I DID!!! I love Sony but guess what, JBL BLEW SONY OUT OF THE WATER!!! Not only does the JBL sound much cleaner and louder, the designer of the JBL thought of EVERYTHING! The Sony was awkward to handle. It was difficult to move around and carry. It’s heavy and has no wheels. The JBL on the other hand has wheels and a VERY convenient pop-up handle to easily move the speaker where ever you want crisp, clean, loud music. I’m glad I made the change. It was a sound decision. The JBL’s are NO JOKE. The Sony is NO JOKE either but head to head, JBL STANDS HEAD AND SHOULDERS ABOVE THE COMPETITION. This is simply one mans opinion.

Amazing speaker with fantastic sound especially the bass, the wheel are perfect to move everywhere and start the party. The battery can last for hours.

So I have both the Jbl 310 and Sony SRS-XP700 and i though the sony would not have a chance from what i heard through other sources and they are wrong both are awesome party speakers and have their distinct sound. One has the heavier basss with the high treble the Sony is warm sounding at stock eq. However,when you adjust the app eq the high are as good like the 310 the bass is strong and punchy.Both get very loud but the jbl gets a little louder however the Sony seems more balanced sounding speaker.As per portability the jbl has wheels so jbl wins this section because the sony does not. Overall I am definitely happy with my purchase and hope it helps for some that are split between buying one or the other and why not buy both.
