    My son wanted a portable speaker for Christmas this past year and I went with this one for its size, high battery capacity, and reputation. I have a TDK A34 and I love it but it uses a proprietary charger which is its only downfall. The JBL has better bass, uses micro-USB to charge, and lasts MUCH longer before needing to be plugged in. That being said I bought myself one to take to the Caribbean this summer! You will not be disappointed!

    Exactly what I was looking for

    I had been looking for a few months for a Bluetooth speaker to use in a work truck because the radio doesn't really work. This met my needs perfectly. It's round, so it fits in the cup-holder, it's loud so I can hear it well over the road noise and I can use it to charge my phone in an emergency. It has volume controls, I just wish it had Play/Pause too. I thought the sound quality was good for the price.

    Speakers don't work well with audio cable. It beeps a lot and the audio cuts in an out. It is pretty annoying.

    Love This Speaker!

    I was deciding between this and EU Boom. I'm really glad I went with the JBL Charge 2+. It's very clear and loud. The Bluetooth works great and it's an added bonus that it charges your phone. I'm loving it! It's so convenient for a variety of purposes and it makes me wonder how I lived without it!

    I was told this speaker could be link with the same kind of speaker JB2 which was wrong. Both speakers can't be linked. Very frustrating and I don't appreciate Best Buy employees telling us one thing and its it even true. I spend a lot of money at Best Buy but thinking otherwise now.

    • Brand response from JBL Support
      Posted .

      Sorry to hear you were misinformed. The CHARGE 2+ is not a JBL Connect enabled speaker that can be paired wirelessly to stream music from a Bluetooth source. At this time the only models with this feature are BOOST TV, CHARGE 3, FLIP 3, XTREME and PULSE 2. However, if you would like to use 2 CHARGE 2's at the same time using one source device, you can use an AUX splitter cable which can be purchased at any electronics store. If this doesn't help, please reach out at Best Buy for the information about return policy. JBL

    We bought this for our daughter who is in college. It sounds great and it was easy to set up. Our son asked for a blue tooth speaker made by Beats. I compared the sound and this model sounded much better - way more base. We bought this speaker (in black) for our son.

    The Best Portable Bluetooth Speaker

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    After wanting a portable Bluetooth speaker for a long time, I went to Best Buy determined to get a Beats Pill. That is, until a sales associate advised me to give the JBL Charge 2+ a try. Simply put: there is no comparison. This little speaker offers powerful bass and well balanced highs and lows that sound like they are coming from a full size speaker. I use it for everything -- whether I'm working out, doing household chores, or just relaxing. The battery life is extremely good and the ability to use it as a speaker phone is pretty clever when the opportunity presents itself. It comes in several colors, but I'm partial to the red.

    Lived up to expectations and then some!

    I spent several days reviewing speakers before committing to the Charge 2+, and I must say I've been very pleased. I host events frequently, and I absolutely love the social mode that allows up to 3 devices to simultaneously sync to the speaker so different people can play their favorites seamlessly. The speaker really does last 12+ hours, and I've been using it at 80% volume or higher the entire time. My wife, who isn't super tech-savvy, finds it really easy to connect to and enjoy for her purposes as well. It functions as a speakerphone as well if needed, and is quite sturdy(already dropped by the kid a few times). The true Bluetooth range is about 25-30 feet before the connection gets finicky. The online reviews I read stated that it's not truly waterproof although it is splashproof. I have no intention of leaving it near a pool so that is irrelevant to me, but it has been rained on with no issues thus far.
