Customer Ratings & Reviews

Just at the edge of the size for portability. Good sound and battery life. Love that it is practically waterproof, although I haven’t swam with it yet. Cool strap to carry. JBL should have put some screens on the sides to protect the speaker membrane.

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.

I love JBL. I got this as a replacement for my party box 100 by JBL because I recently downsized from a house to an apartment. The sound quality is crisp and the carrying sling makes it so convenient to carry the speaker around

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.

Lobe this. Super comoact and great sound. Easy connection

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

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.

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.

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

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

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!

price wasnt bad because i got it on sale, its loud, bass is decent, and even louder when plugged in, can connect to other jbls

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

This soeaker sounds great, i use it around the house because it really shines indoors but also take it to work with me and it still does well but doesnt have the same amount of bass in a big open automotive shop as it does in a smaller room of a house but still sounds great and i can clearly hear my music! Definitely recommend!

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

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!

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

Great little speaker. It plays loud and clear. It has a nice look to it and is very portable. I was a little nervous at how loud it would be compared to its larger versions. However once I turned it on, I was very happy.
