    Love JBL, upgraded from the jbl charge 4 to the 5, and was disappointed by how there were no significant changes between the two. Still a great speaker though

    The JBL Charge 6 is now out and simply better in a lot of ways. I wouldn't go so far as to say if you have a Charge 5 you should sell or pitch it in favor of a Charge 6, it's still decent. It still brings enough that unless it's physical state is affected or you have money to burn you don't need an upgrade. However for those debating between a Charge 5 or a Charge 6, yes I know there's a considerable price difference, especially with the Charge 5 being easier to find on sale, but still, to new buyers the Charge 6 offers plenty more than enough to fully validate the price difference. If you have this one, keep it and enjoy it, but if you don't have either, get the Charge 6. It's that simple.

    I purchased the Flip 6 and the Charge 5. Considering the prices were not too far apart i went with the Charge 5. It has WAY better bass and the highs hit nicely. I would highly recommend to anyone looking into a new JBL portable speeker.
