Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was wanting to purchase a 2nd JBL Charge 3, but this beast happened to be on sale during Black Friday for $149. I'm so glad I made this purchase for such a cheap price. I work in a warehouse and this speaker can fill the entire workspace with such good quality sound you can almost ignore the forklifts in the background. My co-workers love it since we can all listen to it all day without worrying about having to charge it. I can get over a good 12hr work day listening to this thing at 70%-80% volume.

I bought this speaker for my daughter birthday because she was always using mine. The sound is great and is water proof and the battery life is not bad.

very easy connection, great sound and bass jams; could have bought a bigger one for about the same price, but wanted portable

Really great for anything. Great sound quality, light weighted, and long lasting battery. Waterproof so great for outdoor use possibly near water.

I mostly use this speaker for audio on my gaming pc. There is zero set up whatsoever, all I did was charge the speaker and plug an aux cord from the back of the speaker to my computer. Sound initially was not great, until I learned one trick that fixed it. If you put the computer audio to max and control the sound via the volume buttons on the speaker, you get the best sound there is. Sound woofers sound amazing, and I often keep the speaker at 30-50% max volume as it is very loud and clear.

easy to use and carry, good sound, comfortable size and the most important thing for me is that it serves to charge the cell.

This speaker is perfect. Very Loud and I bring it camping and it carries loud and crisp sound

My first JBL extreme (1) lasted for 10+ years. This new JBL Extreme 2 portable speaker has even better sound and the battery lasts a really long time! The speaker is well made and can take a lot of abuse when using. A good buy from BestBuy.

I am a fan of Bose speakers, but this one I bought it as a Christmas gift for my husband, I went to the store and listened to a few Bose portable speakers and this JBL Portable speaker was the one I preferred. Indeed, it did not disappointed my husband and myself. Sound Quality is great compared to a few Bose I tried, also you don't have to worry about running out of battery for hours. It might be a bit expensive for a portable speaker but it is really worth it. Better to get it when it comes on sale. I do Recommend it!

An EQ app is an must for this speaker. JBL out of the box cranked up the bass on these. On my EQ setting I have never had to turn down the bass as I have, its not a complaint. Once dialed in these are the sweetest under 200 dollar BT speaker I have ever owned. Did not take too long to find the sweet spot for low, mid, and highs. JBL is an underrated headphone and speaker maker. I was worried about the sound not being 360. Don't mind that, It sounds better than the 360 speaker I have.

Great bass! Big enough for a little backyard bbq without the weight and bulkiness of a bigger speaker. Strap is a plus!

Lobe this. Super comoact and great sound. Easy connection

I'm a bit of a speaker connoisseur, and this one is amazing! The sound is full, the bass is deep (for it's size), and the battery life is the best I've seen on a speaker of this kind. Add in the strap for portability, and this thing can go anywhere with you, any time. I have had it for a week and can't stop using it/bragging about it!

Love this speaker!!! Great sound and easy to connect!! Battery life is awesome!! One of my favorites!!

I love this for a few reasons, long last battery! That’s so important! Sound is very nice! Size is perfect! I love it!

It’s definitely a bit heavy but it’s got a nice base sound and is very easy to use. It has good sound quality for the price. The battery life is decent,probably about four hours total. You have to charge with a plug from the house

This speaker is great. A little more than the standard JBLs without being a pain to have portably. Great quality. Great price. Also I have purchased JBL products elsewhere and ended up with bad experiences. I've not had that with Best Buy more than 1 time.

Sounds great, easy Bluetooth connect, comes with great carrying strap, waterproof, great battery life, I am very happy with this product.

I waited to review this speaker because I wanted to see how it would hold up and perform. So far after 4 months of use I am still in love. Using speaker while working on my rental properties has bred great, not only does the sound fill large open spaces well, but the charge feature for phones and other usb devices has been a blessing. This past weekend my family and I took it camping where there wasn’t power. We had music all night Friday and Saturday morning and then I charged my phone back to 100% from almost dead. Headed out for the day and came back late afternoon for some more music and then my 2 daughters charged their phones as well. We had music till late and then again Sunday morning when I charged my phone again. The JBL kept right on going. I still had enough power to play music even when we got home. I cannot day enough about the charge feature if this speaker. BT connectivity is super smooth and simple, even for my kids who always fight for who’s gonna connect next. Pairing has never been an issue. All in all it’s a great portable speaker. Construction seems to be rock solid and capable of some abuse while I haven’t had the misfortune of fully testing that and not to. You will not regret purchasing one of these speakers.

Good size, arrived on time, sound quality is amazing. I'M really enjoying the device.
