Customer Ratings & Reviews

Years later and it still holds a long charge and sounds phenomenal. Charges fast with the included type c. Gets super loud and has plenty of bass.

Amazing sound, gets plenty loud to use outside. Not super different from the Jbl Charge 4, (clearer highs are the most noticeable difference) but it was worth it to me for the partyboost feature with the flip 5. Great bass, and the water resistance is nice.

JBL is expensive, and probably shouldn't be as much as it is. But the quality is pretty high, and the durability of this speaker is ridiculous. I throw it in my car, backpack, or whatever whenever I know I want to blast tunes at a get-together. Super easy to bind to the Bluetooth, and the audio is great at pretty much all volumes.

This bluetooth speaker has great sound! Really like that it is waterproof and dust proof. You can also charge other devices with the speaker. Easy to use and good size. Like that it can be sit vertical or horizontal too.

Great sound, easy to use, links up quick and easy,exactly what I was hoping for. long lasting battery, like the size, quality product

Perfect size for at home, in the car or on the go...my husband loves it and takes it everywhere and uses is daily Sound quality is good...bass is better than other speakers we looked at Easy to use and set up/syncing to phone is flawlessly quick

I Love how you can connect multiple JBL Party Boost speakers for a sound big enough for any crowd. It looks as good as it sounds.Take the amazing power of JBL pro sound with you. The JBL Charge 5 has an optimized long excursion driver, a separate tweeter, and dual JBL bass radiators, all delivering impressively rich and clear audio. Get that big room sound, even when outdoors. I recommended this to anyone. It was a happy Buy.

Very happy with this purchase. Audio is clear, bass is good. Wide range of Volume. Battery life top notch. Used outdoors at the beach for 5 days 6 hours and never had to charge once.

Great sound quality and very easy to use. Not too big for transporting and waterproof too.

I compared the JBL Charge 5 speaker against many others in the price rang, including the Bose, and found this to be the best sounding and longest lasting battery of all of them. I wish it had a microphone, an aux input and easier way to make stereo with joined speakers (have to go through downloaded app using mobile phone or other portable app supported device --and the app is not available on laptop or PC, so cannot use stereo sound with laptop or PC, only mono) but overall am very happy with the sound and battery life of this unit. And it's waterproof for those outdoor activities. Mark at the San Dimas/Glendora Best Buy store was also very helpful advising, and assisting with ordering the Charge 5.

My first portable speaker was the UE Boom 2. I've tried the Wonder Boom 3, UE Megaboom 3 and this. The Charge 5 has good clarity, bass, perfect compact size, great battery life if you play it at 50-60 percent volume, etc. It is the best sounding Bluetooth speaker I've tried.

I am very impressed with my purchase of the JBL Charge 5 speaker from Best Buy. The quality of sound that this little portable speaker can produce is quite amazing and along with an incredible full sound. Along with its sleek and compact design which makes it very easy and portable. I really have zero complaints on this device and seriously considering buying another to utilize them in stereo.

Sounds great, has amazing volume and bass and the charge lasts a good while. Totally worth the purchase!

For as small as this speaker is the sound quality is great! Love how we can take this on the go, in the side-by-side, at the beach or around the house! Easy to charge, lasts a long time, and super easy to connect to. Highly recommend this speaker!

Excellent speaker with great bass response and loud volumes. This speaker manages to fill out a large soundspace while maintaining decent clarity. It is even better to cover small spaces with even greater clarity and a full spectrum of sound response. I have not tested the waterproofness of it but I use it a shower speaker sometimes and its reassuring that steam wont damage it. Also theres an app for it, altough the app is not great it does have an EQ, I tend to lower bass and raise the highs a bit for a more neutral sound to my ears.

Great product. Sounds fantastic for the size. Lots of bass. Last a long time on a charge

These things are the best made speakers ever! The battery life, the clarity, and durability of this brand is insane! We have used JBL speakers for awhile and they never disappoint.

Great sound from a small package. Long battery life and great bass. Definitely recommend if you need something for a small gathering.

I bought this for work and it is great. Good and loud and holds a charge pretty well! Has such great bass to it and sounds great! Considering buying a second one when I can. JBL makes great speakers!

I bought this to take on a full-day trip floating down the Guadalupe River in an intertube. The speaker sounded great and provided enough volume for a wide open space. I appreciated that it would be okay if it fell into the water. Fortunately, it did not get submerged, but it did take a number of heavy splashes. I'm pleased with this purchase and would buy it again. Currently, I'm using it mostly in my garage while working on projects.
