Good sound, but sale price made it even better
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm a fan of JBL speakers. I bought a Sony SRS XG500 that I got for a killer deal, but returned it after 5 days because it didn't hit the bass and wasn't that loud out by the pool or the beach. My wife who saw me reviewing JBL speakers on YouTube asked why I just didn't bite the bullet and get the JBL even though it was more expensive. You know what, she was right. I got the Boombox 3 and both she and I are really happy with the sound, the punchiness of the bass and the volume at the beach, pool and around the house (she bumps it louder than me when she is on the treadmill!). So when it was time for me to get a portable speaker for me to use when I walked the dogs and didn't want to use ear buds (for obvious reasons since it blocks out too much of the ambient sound like cars and other animals), I naturally turned toward JBL. The sale price of almost 50% off made the decision a no brainer. Now, don't get me wrong. This does not hit anywhere close to the Boombox 3, but it has a fair amount of volume for its intended use. Battery life is fair but a charging time of 2 hours is a little long for a battery that only lasts 5 hours (for context, it takes the Boombox 3 6 hours to fully charge and it can last over 13 hours). There's no speakerphone functionality, which is a pity, because it would make sense if you used this out while backpacking or anywhere you couldn't hold your phone and you needed to send or receive a call. (I read that the Clip 3 had this feature). The sound is bright and somewhat tinny, especially at higher volumes. There is a marked lack of bass and low frequency response, but given the size of the driver, I wouldn't have expected much. I paired this with my Samsung Galaxy 6 Classic and stream iHeart radio, deezer and Spotify. I can walk about 8 feet away from the speaker before the signal starts cutting out, but that might be more a reflection of my watch than the speaker's range. So, for a sound companion that's in easy reach for the outdoorsy type, this is a good option. The sale price made it the best option...
I would recommend this to a friendAwful sound (it was an open box)
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought as an open box and as soon I turned it on it started to sound like a fryer. Awful! But may be that was the reason it was an open box. I decided not to take risks and I bought another brand after I returned it

JBL speaker falls short
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Much better speakers for the price of this one. I purchased this speaker to use for work after doing some research on which speaker would last the longest. This speaker says up to 10 hours so thinking I'll only need at least 6 hours I got this. Wrong... this little speaker only lasted 3 1/2 hours and the sound quality is terrible. This was my first time buying a jbl and it'll be my last. Returning asap

Posted .Thank you for your feedback. We understand that our JBL Clip 4 didn't meet your expectations. We always look for ways to improve. So we'll make sure that this will be forwarded to the right team. To ensure connectivity with a source device, make sure to enable Bluetooth on your phone and the device is in pairing mode.
