“Can the speaker be played while charging? The SONY XB32 has short battery life and doesn't even last a day at work.. It claims "up to" 24HR battery life, while also not playing music loudly while charging.. The SONY went five hours.. Will this outlast it?”

• Hi there, our JBL Charge 4 can be played while charging and when unplugged, has a playtime of up to 20 hours. For more information, please submit a case request so we can assist you: https://support.jbl.com/us/en/customer-service/contact.html

• I suspect volume plays a big role in battery life. If you turn up the volume on your source it may help as you can turn the speaker volume lower. Of course this means your phone/mp3 player will lose juice faster. I have played mine for at least 4 hours at a crack with no weakness in volume and no charge required.
