    Doesn’t go as loud as I was hoping (sound seemed pretty much the same as the flip6. Flip6 just doesnt have subwoofers which I’m ok with.) Also using it to charge makes it drain of power very quickly.

    Maybe the one I got is defective, but twice now, I have charged it fully and both times I have only been playing music for about 2 hours tops at a moderate level when the battery indicator light starts flashing red. I'm returning it, I've only had it for 3 days.

    I recently picked up this JBL speaker, and I’ve been seriously impressed with its performance. Right out of the box, it feels solid and well built. The sound quality is crisp and balanced, with surprisingly deep bass for a portable speaker. Whether I’m indoors or outside, the audio remains loud and clear without distortion—even at higher volumes. The battery life is another strong point; I easily get several hours of continuous playtime. It’s also waterproof, which gives me peace of mind when using it near water or during unpredictable weather. Bluetooth pairing is quick and seamless, and the speaker holds its connection well even at a distance. Overall, it’s a reliable, high-quality speaker that delivers powerful sound in a compact, travel-friendly form.

    The sound is good; but I bought two for the connectivity feature; which is unreliable at best. They cut out frequently in the party mode I would recommend these individually; but not as a set for party mode.

      We appreciate your time in providing feedback on our JBL Charge 5. To prevent audio from cutting in and out when in the party mode, make sure that they're not more than 10 meters away from each other with no obstructions to prevent the audio from cutting in and out. If the issue persists, please reach out to our customer support. JBL
