Customer Ratings & Reviews

Received as a gift. Been using it daily for outdoor use. Daughter has been enjoying the sweet sounds of Moana while in the pool.

My son saw this speaker & really wanted it plus it has lighting on it! My son love his new speaker! Great job Best Buy & it was on sale to boot!

The LG PK5 is a great mid size bluetooth speaker. I love the way it is designed. Its black in color and has handles on four sides of the speaker, you can hold it securely from the handles and when you place the speaker down it protects the surface. The speaker also come with RGB lighting for that cool effect. The PK5 is weather and splash resistant with an IPX5 rating. Perfect for bringing outdoors or to the pool.Your controls are on top and labeled clearly. Your normal controls include a battery status light, power button, volume, speakerphone and two sound modes "clear vocal & enhanced bass". There is also a back panel that hides an aux input, pairing button to connect extra speaker, and a usb-c charging port. I give LG points for including a usb-c charging port and cable with this speaker, it's just so much easier to charge this way without first looking and the plug end. The LG PK5 has Meridian Audio technology which is advanced signal processing for better sound and aptX HD Audio which is like high definition bluetooth which also helps with sound quality. Music sounds great pumping out of this speaker. I was impressed upon listening to music streamed from my iphone. I kept the clear vocal and enhanced bass on and man did it make a difference. The LG PK5 also has dual passive radiators on each end of the speaker that help push air from the speakers to create more bass and those things sure do vibrate! LG claims the PK5 has an 18 hour battery life. I've yet to test that. The only thing I would like to have was an iphone app to have more control over the speaker but not that you necessarily need it though, LG only has an android app for the PK5 speaker but like I said not a deal breaker. Overall I would recommend this speaker to anyone who is looking for a mid size outdoor bluetooth speaker.

Built very well. But not loud at all. Nice little speaker. Volume is a little louder than my iPhone XS.

I bought this products for my 2 toddlers girls and it's pretty good not as loud as I thought but for my girls is good enough.

Use the speaker in my home office, good quality sound connected via Bluetooth. Satisfied customer!

I'm not really overwhelmed with the purchase as it did not have wifi integration to connect with home speaker. Sound quality is decent.

I think it's a cool speaker. I listened to the demo in the store and I really enjoyed it. A good purchase!

Bought for my daughter since she is always listening to music and can take it anywhere and not worry about getting damp.

Cool speaker! I got it with the purchase of another product but a great addition.

Bought it for a TV and it worked really well. Too bad you can't turn the flashing colors off though.

The sales staff put me on to this one. For a few dollars more I got what I wanted in a speaker. Love it.

I bought it to connect to my echo dot and I am unable to connect. I like the appearance and will keep trying. It works great on my phone.

Bought this gift for my step dad he uses it in the garage and takes it to the beach. For this price it's a steal.

Got this while on sale, 50$ which was a steal. It looks so rugged and sporty, we take it everywhere with us

I got this speaker for my dad as a gift and he's I love with it. the sound that comes from this speaker is godly

Big sound in a little package Fathers Day gift for dad...he loves it Him and mom are fighting over it now!

LG - LG PK5 Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Black The LG PK5 is adequate but not remarkable. It has standard phone options as well as lighting and sound modes. Connected via Bluetooth it stays connected with clear connection out to 45 feet. It is capable of connecting to more than 1 source at the same time. I have it connected to my phone and my stereo. It will accept input from either device. I was unable to determine how to set priority on a device. It seemed in my case the phone took priority. This makes sense, if you’re listening to music and your phone rings, then the phone gets priority. The sound modes are available on the top control panel, for the lighting modes you’ll want to install the app. Controlling the lights with the Mic button on the top panel is iffy at best. The app gives you battery level and a few other options but doesn’t really add any functionality. It does allow you to turn off the lights easily. In my case I don’t like lights on my speakers so this is a plus. Once the lights are off they stay off while using the speaker paired to another input device. There are a lot of negatives on line about the app not finding the speaker, mine had no issues with this. My only complaint about the app is not enough control over the speaker sound and if you close the app it disconnects the speaker. Easy enough to go into Bluetooth setting and click on the speaker and it will reconnect. The 2 sound modes are “Clear Vocal” and “Enhanced Bass” Clear Vocal boosts about 1KHz and above, almost to the point of sounding muddy and hissy. It is good for use at lower volumes but gets annoying fast at louder volumes. The Enhanced Bass boosts about 125Hz and below and suffers the same issues. At lower volumes it adds bass and fills in the missing bass. Can we say “Loudness Button” because that’s what it does. But unlike a loudness button that slowly fades out as you turn it up, this stays engaged all the way up. Causing the bass to be overwhelmed at higher volumes. It has 2 passive radiators on the ends. They do their job and enhance the overall sound and bass output. The outer cage is for speaker protection and gives you handles to grab. I will say that I do like having a handle to carry it with. It weighs 2lbs 10oz so the handles are nice to have and make it not so awkward to move around. When testing the bass, anything below 53Hz is just missing. I would expect it to get closer to 40 or 45. LG doesn’t list or post specs on the audio response. Maybe someone with better hearing can chime in with the upper frequency response. LG’s brochure shows a big party with lots of people and pounding bass, I think not. This is an office desk or kitchen speaker. Because it is IPX5 water resistant you can take it to the pool side without worrying. It auto powers off after about 5 minutes with no input. It accepts standard audio cable input as well as Bluetooth linking so you can add more speakers from the same source. A note about the audio cable input. If you use this it will not be IPX5 rated because the back door will be open. Mine came with the battery completely dead. It says it takes 4 hours to charge but it took about 6 hours for mine to charge. The charger I used meets their specs. LG states about 18 hours of continuous use. In my testing at moderate volume levels I got 14 hours with the lighting turned off. The 2 drivers are about 1.3”, I’m sure they measure them in mm, I just measured them. There are no other drivers of any kind, just 2 full range drivers and 2 passive radiators.

I like I would like to buy other speakers the same I recommend

Wanted a stereo, but didn’t want a big system taking up a lot of space. Absolutely love this speaker!
