    Not impressed with this speaker for how expensive it was. Not very loud. Ok sound quality. Nothing great. Expected better from JBL. If you’re going to spend that much might as well get the Sony speaker instead.

    Poor bass quality. No lows only highs. It is certainly loud. Obnoxiously loud but without any bass what so ever. We purchased two. One for each of our bikes. Guess we’ll have to wait for something better.

    Tue charging port does not work. I’m not sure if only the blue speaker? I bought my husband the black one and everything is fine. This is the second blue one I buy and I’m about to go return it because it does not charge. I even tried his charger for same one.

    For $420 this is by far the worst sounding speaker you can buy. Absolutley does not match the price you have to pay for the quality it is.

      We're here to help. Our JBL Xtreme 3 playtime would last up to 15 hours. This may vary depending on volume and music content. We highly suggest charging the speaker overnight to ensure that it will carry a full battery. If you need more help, please contact our customer support. JBL

      Thanks for sharing your feedback on our JBL Xtreme 3. We understand that its sound performance didn't meet your expectations. Pushing the speaker's volume to a high peak may result in sound distortion, depending on the music content playing from your source. If you're using an equalizer, you can try turning off the EQ settings to maintain balanced sound frequencies. In addition, you can try to connect it to a different device to determine if the problem is with the device or speaker. If you need more help, please contact our Customer Support via our official website or toll-free hotline for further assistance. JBL

      Thanks for your feedback. We're here to help you with your JBL Xtreme 3. Please know that it's possible that the battery is losing its capacity. Volume and usage can affect the battery's life. In addition, please know that battery wears out over time. Even if listening at maximum volume to heavy bass music, the battery should last longer than 60% of the published playtime.

    This speaker not only looks cool, but sounds amazing for its size! Speaker is built very well, has excellent battery life, Bluetooth range, and I love the available blue color! Very clean crisp vocals with a nice BOOM at any volume. It's a perfect size for travel or just for having out by a pool or while BBQn'. Built very well and includes a nice adjustable strap. Would definitely recommend!!
