Customer Ratings & Reviews

After reading numerous reviews about this Bluetooth speaker, I was looking forward to experiencing the amazing sound quality. It was even better than I expected! Deep, rich tonal quality made even better when I sat it in a mixing bowl in my kitchen while cooking. Love the portability and ease of use. Volume is good for a beach day, a terrace party or just personal use around the house.

Great sound. good bass battery a last long time. Reasonable price

This speaker is awesome! Great sound and amazing battery life. I've not put the water proofing to the test yet. It is large and will not really fit into a cup holder if placed vertically. But does have a good 'slide-resistant' base which helps if it on the dash of a golf cart or similar. I was pleasantly surprised to see it was able to link to a JBL generation 2 speaker for the surround sound effect.

I purchased this model only because of all the good reviews I've read. And I have to agree with them. Very satisfied with the quality, the sound, the portability, and the life of the battery. Once you sync with Bluetooth, it automatically pairs with your device everytime you power it on. I also like that you can answer your phone on it and charge your phone via usb. Will definitely recommend.

I have been looking for a quality bluetooth speaker and bought this one on a black friday sale. I actually use it as a soundbar for my 32" television. The sound is amazing. Clear sound, deep bass, and loud volume. You won't regret getting this bluetooth speaker.

This speaker is easy to use and connect to. The bass is good for the size. Battery life is good. I love the portability. Sound quality was really close to the Bose unit. Hard to tell in store.

My Christmas gift to me this year was something I've wanted for awhile. I'm a bit of a music buff and my first Bluetooth speaker was small and kind of tinny (poor bass response). Trying to bring my music to even a small gathering was rather embarrassing. My new JBL has an incredible range and comes thru clear even at full volume. It has independent volume control, connects by Bluetooth as well as wired so even my old school devices can be connected. The battery on board runs for hours and can even charge your decice for you. Things I did not test: Water proof/resistance. The three ports on the back for charging and connecting non-Bluetooth devices, are covered by a rubber door that seals in place by pressing it closed. It must be closed if the speaker gets splashed or submerged or bye bye speaker. Multi Speaker connection. Just what it says. Apparently you can connect these to others with the same feature. Multiples or just one I don't know. This speaker is bigger than a can of tennis balls but smaller than a 2 litre soda bottle. It's sound rivals that of my home speakers and is loud enough to get me the "look" from my wife. I do with there was was a carry handle or maybe a harness as an accessory. It would make hanging it up out of the way easier.

Why get a BEATS speaker when this one is available for a fraction of the price? This is the outgoing JBL model and was able to get it for only $89.99. The sound on this one is awesome and the bass is super crisp. I have not used my home sound system since I got this one. If this one is so poweful, just imagine the bigger JBL’s.

This speaker is perfect for anyone looking for high quality portable sound at a reasonable price. The speaker is very compact and easy to carry and/or place in a bag. It flawlessly connects to any Bluetooth device, and the sound is incredible. Highly recommend.

Needed a bluetooth speaker in a hurry, went into the store and really did not have time to research products. The staff member recommended this JBL, took less than 3 minutes to demo, set up and on was on my way. I really love this speaker and find the sound better than ones twice and three times the price. I just love it and now it's the only one I use for on-the-go.

This wireless speaker has been the best investment we’ve ever made. It sounds great.. the quality and volume are perfect. Sounds crisp, loud, and clear.. This has the best quality sound from a Bluetooth speaker we’ve ever had. The charging capability is great. 20+hrs of battery life is awesome. Definitely recommend!

I have had the JBL Charge 3 for 4 weeks. I have to say I love this speaker! Multiple trips to the beach, swimming pools, outdoor parties and this speaker is awesome. The sound for me is great. I can play the speaker listening to music and podcasts for 2.5 days between charges. I don't have the speaker all the way up blasting most of the time on that charge time. Even at full blast we played the speaker for 12 hours before needing a charge. When charging other devices it is not a quick charge but gets the job done when in a pinch. I would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Got this as my wife has wanted to have portable music without carrying a boom box with tons of batteries. Researched and this looked like the best one for our purposes. Sound is excellent. It pairs easily with phones and tablets. Paired it with desktop but dropped out from time to time. Has to go through several walls and brick outside wall. Can't complain.

I am not an audiophile, however, this speaker creates very good sound that resonates throughout the living room. I don't use it on full power and but loud enough to listen to and would need to be turned down to have a conversation. Black Friday sale was great. Was looking for this for a while and the price was right. Very happy with so far.

This is my 2nd JBL CHARGE speaker, I bought this and the charging cable/ charging block was not in the box However I used my other to charge this AWESOME BEAST I love these speakers, I love Metal and hard rock and these sound AWESOME Price is very Spot on, blows away any BOSE or BEATS, BEATS is just a fad and a name cause oh it's Apple now, oh I have to go and spend so much money just to be cool, oh look at me I have a 300.00 BEATS PILL that my Mommy bought for me so I can be Johnny COOL, KOOKY hipsters ruin everything, forget about it, JBL and SONY are way better . Just do the right thing, buy it for the sound, not the HIPSTER COOL factor, I thought hipsters did there own thing, not follow everyone of them Anyway, enough about conforming LIB Hipsters buying APPLE stuff, maybe next they'll put a Pabst Blue Ribbon label on one, wouldn't that be cool?? Hipsters would go crazy over those, Apple are you listening?? Anyway, you won't be disappointed with this AWESOME BEAST Oh, and a side note: I emailed JBL about my missing wall plug and USB cable the day I got it, they overnighted me one!!! Who does that?? Would Beats or Bose?? Doubtful, highly

Wife wanted a portable speaker for Christmas, after reading reviews I though this would be a good choice. Seems like I was right, sound from this speaker is very nice and battery seems to last forever. Its just what she wanted as she can bring it to work or wherever she goes. I find her constantly using it and enjoying it. I would purchase this again

What a great speaker. Had it in backyard for a party. Geat sound and could be heard from 20plus ft away. It's waterproof and will last for about 20 hrs. Everyone had good things to say about it. It's cheaper than the Bose or other types of speakers. Test it out for yourself and you will hear the difference. Also has a slot to charge your cell phone too.

I rarely review a product cause I’m lazy lol but this speaker is the best! I brought it on a discount during a Black Friday deal. Took it in two trips one being out of the country and was not too heavy on my luggage. Really awesome. The sound is beyond amazing. Save your money on buying Beats!

They had this on sale at Best Buy for $99. It's much larger than the flip, but also much more powerful. I use this in my 800 sf garage to stream music. It's got a really good bass punch to it, and fills the entire room with sound at half of the volume of my old bluetooth. Solid build, waterproof, and holds a long charge!

I was looking for a speaker for my apartment and didn’t want to spend a lot on a huge system that took up space so I saw the JBL 3 and heard the sound so the speaker called me and I bought it plus it is a Bluetooth device and has base just a plus great sound yes I would recommend the JBL 3
