I like the bass also how loud another thing is how long the battery lasts

Good sound quality, decent battery life, good value fir the money

I’ve been using my JBL speaker for a few weeks now, and I’m seriously impressed. The sound is clear, powerful, and surprisingly deep for such a compact size. The bass hits just right without overwhelming the mids and highs. It’s perfect for both indoor and outdoor use, and the battery life lasts much longer than I expected—great for parties, road trips, or just relaxing at home. The Bluetooth connection is fast and stable, and I love how rugged and durable the design is. It’s also water-resistant, which is a huge plus for beach days or poolside listening. If you’re looking for a portable speaker that delivers great audio and reliability, this JBL is definitely worth it. Highly recommended!

Why is it almost perfect? Well, let me get that out of the way first. 1: The lighting is "meh". Don't get me wrong, I love that it lights up and makes a mini disco room effect, but one key feature it's missing is the ability to sync with the music. The lights and patterns are random (if you choose it to be), but having the lighting sync to the music with different patterns and colors with a wide array of options to do so would have made this unit TOP TIER. 2: Then there are the built in music/voice effects. JBL, what on Earth are you doing? You get the obligatory air horn, but the delay on the button means you can only hit it once to get the effect, you can't just spam the button because it has to play through the sound before the next button press registers. There are other effects that no one in their right mind would use, like a record scratch and just random 8-bit noises. Then there's the voices. This is where I nearly docked another star. It has these British AI voices so when you press the button, it says things like "leeet's potty" (no one will convince me otherwise that's what she says) and "Who. Is. Ready. To Jump?", but it's so monotone and uninterested that it's embarrassing to even listen to. 3: Lastly, the battery. I've seen tear-down vids of this unit and I can confidently say there is more than enough room to fit a Partybox 320 battery in the space provided OR two of the existing 120 batteries. In the end, all three of these issues are minor in my book, but combined it was enough to not get five stars. Now, what is there to like? 1: For one thing, don't let the outer shell fool you. Yes, it's plastic, but there is an actual wood woofer box on the inside. Most likely a compressed particle board, but no MDF, which is fine. That would also account for a good bit of the weight. They also had the foresight to pad the plastic shell to absorb speaker vibration. I like that little detail. 2: Like all JBL hardware, connecting to the app works fine and gives you extra features to change lighting and the aforementioned sound effects. It also gives you battery life if you can't monitor it on the speaker itself. 3: Lots of fun little features like the ability to chain speakers together for a massive system, support for mics and guitars, and pass-through charging for your phone. 4: The handle, while folded in, also works as a grip to hold your phone or tablet. I don't know how big of a tablet, but my iPhone in landscape mode sat on the top with no issue and had plenty of space left over. 5: While there is room for a larger battery, unlike most speakers today, you can actually remove the battery and swap it with a fresh one, so that's still a win in my book. The battery also lowers the power output of the unit, which makes sense, so if you want full power, plug it in. I didn't seem to find any noticeable differences when I tested it with the plug and battery alone, but then again, I wasn't cranking it up max either, so your mileage may vary in this respect. I imagine a portable battery backup system would power this thing far longer, but the portability really is nice. Overall, the few cons I had are not enough for me to not recommend this. It's a great speaker and if you like JBL over other brands, you can't lose with this one.

Amazing battery life and sound, I also have a 710 but this thing being easy to carry is a huge plus. It packs a punch for its size

This is the portable party. It’s been used indoors and outdoors. Love the lights, base, and clear sound. Got on sale so that was a bonus. Purchased a speaker stand to help enhance the sound (and protect the speaker), but may buy an additional speaker to enhance the experience.

Excellent Bluetooth speaker. Dedicated audio inputs allowed for a microphone for an event.

Good speaker really powerful sounds amazing battery will last a long time with out charging

This will be the best portable party speaker you will find at its price range. Its best for small gatherings, but if you want a some more power upgrading to the partybox 310 or 320 will be perfect. Any of the higher models above the 300s are overkill but they sound so good outdoors.

Great speaker, battery last good time even at high volume, has great bass and quality sound

This speaker isn’t shy. With built-in light effects that sync with your music and a rugged, stylish black exterior, it creates a visual vibe that matches its audio performance. It’s portable enough to move around, but robust enough to anchor any event.

Great speaker, easy to connect via Bluetooth. Music sounds great and the lights are a great addition. When fully charged the speaker lasts long.

Purchased this a few weeks ago and couldn’t be happier. I’ve owned a couple other JBL speakers and wanted something with more bass. Sounds great and even better when you use the custom EQ. It will be perfect for movies on the outside screen or for my daughter’s birthday party with the light show.

Bought this to replace another Bluetooth speaker we had. The sound quality, bass, and the use with the Bluetooth microphones is perfect for a birthday party or any party for that matter. Jabalí has always been a reliable brand

Best speaker I have ever purchased. I was going back and forth between the 120 and 320. Glad I went with the 120. Its loud enough and has great range to fill our backyard for parties and works well in the house on low volume.

Got this on a sale, pretty good value for a quality wireless speaker. It's fairly loud, and the bass sounds pretty good and balanced around 65% volume. I have not messed with the equalizer settings, but one thing ive noticed is the bass is kind of unwieldy. At low volumes, the bass seems to drown out the mids and highs, and at high volumes the mids and highs are most of what you can hear. At max volume, the battery only lasts about 2 hours or so, I normally just keep mine plugged in. Was able to get it to last for about a full day at 30% volume, and it was still pretty listenable, not too quiet.

Very loud great sound quality listened to it every day all day

I was a bit sceptical at first but once I got it home and downloaded the app and played music I was sold!!! The speaker has a good amount of bass and is pretty loud especially if you put it in the corner of the room. I put mine on a tripod and I was so happy with the speaker that I went out and purchased the bigger version 320 party box!

I’ve used this speaker at a few get-togethers now, and it never disappoints. The sound is powerful, clear, and has deep bass that fills the whole room. The lights add such a fun vibe, and the battery lasts way longer than I expected.I’d definitely recommend.this speaker can handle anything

Fabulous portable speaker! Easy to connect, easy to move to front porch or back yard or any room in the house. Love the colorful lights too! This speaker can be very loud if desired too.
