Battery
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Feel like the blutooth and power button drain the battery.
This review is from JBL - CHARGE5 Portable Waterproof Speaker with Powerbank - Black
I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from JBL Support
Posted .Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Here are some things to try that often fix these issues. If you have other charging cables, give them a try. (Be sure that the cable has the same type of connector as the original one that came with your product.). Same for the charger- if your product charges by USB, try a different USB charger. Be sure that it is rated at least 2.0a (2 amps) output. Try other electrical outlets at your location to be certain it is not a local wiring issue. Charge the product overnight for at least 8 hours. Check to see if there is dirt/dust on the charging port of the speaker. Check to see if there is damage/ bent pin/s on the charging port of the speaker. Try plugging the Cable to a Laptop/Computer. If none of these fixes the issue, Please reach out to JBL Customer Service for technical support and assistance. https://bit.ly/3vpj6Dn

JBL Charge 5 Review
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just bought this from Best Buy in Topeka and the people there are so nice and helped me with everything. But this is about the speaker not the people. The speaker is great. It has a long lasting battery, great bass, and sounds outstanding. The power bank in the bottom has saved my phone from dying multiple times.
