Customer Ratings & Reviews

Unit gave excellent sound with high bass impact. Great device for outdoor enjoyment of sound.

Very quality speaker with remarkable bass. Portable and Bluetooth enabled.

Sounds amazing has good bass, it looks beautiful too

Love it Worth the money Get a bigger one if you are able to though

Excellent Sound qualityyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

It’s a pretty good speaker, but not really for connecting to your phone and just listening to music. It’s more for if you wanna do karaoke or performing for an audience. You’ll probably need multiple of them to really get the best effect.

Great speaker for a great price...... Recommend 100%

First off this is a great sounding speaker. Especially if you're having a pool party and you have a grilling area and want to blast some music. Blast some music is not an euphemism either. This thing gets seriously loud. Like, the neighbors will complain at 3 in the afternoon about your too loud Rob Zombie. Okay, now that is out of the way let us talk particulars... Be aware that this is a large speaker. Weighing in around 23 pounds it's not one of those dinky bluetooth speakers. It's water resistant thus making it perfect for a pool party. I do not intend to throw it in the pool but it has gotten wet from splashes with no ill effects. One area of improvement would be better getting started instructions. The cover for the power connection and other stuff is rather hard to find how to open. Part of that is a result of the water resistance but the first time felt like I was going to break it. A large part of the hefty weight is the 12 hours of battery life, which pretty much lines up with my use so far. Syncing to your phone (or other devices) is simple as pressing a button the top of the speaker. This leads to only real complaint about this speaker. LG wants you to install yet another app on your phone to control all the features. I'll be honest here, I'm fed up with a separate app for speakers and/or head phones so I didn't even install the app. But a pleasant surprise was that the speakers has lights that sync to whatever music you play making a nice addition to those pool parties. The other surprise was just how good this thing sounds at high volume. The range had no distortion and outstanding clarity. This is an excellent outdoors speaker, especially for pool parties and I highly recommend it.

Excellent product: quality and price can’t be matched easily

I got this LG – XBOOM XL5 portable tower speaker about a week ago and I have really enjoyed having it. It’s a formidable contender in the midrange portable speaker category. 1. Sound Quality: As we all know, the most important aspect of any speaker is the sound quality. This speaker sounds flat and a little muffled when played in normal mode but it really sounds great and wakes up when you push the “SOUND BOOST” button. With sound boost on this speaker is crystal clear with excellent bass response, and what I would consider a pretty good overall audio performance. I’m really confused why they would even have the sound boost button on there, I would be shocked if anyone EVER used this speaker without turning it on so seems like a useless on/off switch that should always be left on. Beyond that I would describe this speaker's sound as more of a balanced sound profile – not necessarily “super bass” or "super treble" but sounds good and remains clear all the way up to full volume. Which brings me to my next point and my only complaint which is overall volume. I’m surprised/disappointed in the speaker’s top overall volume. For a unit this size, weight, and cost, I really think the overall total volume is lacking. It sounds good but I can literally stand directly three feet in front of this speaker with it on full blast and it is not uncomfortable to stand there and have a talk with someone. For the size of this thing that scenario should be uncomfortably loud but it simple is not. Don’t get me wrong it has some volume, just not nearly what I was expecting. 2. Design and Build: The speaker is well-constructed and seems super durable. Has a nice look with smooth lines and pleasant aesthetic finish. Additionally, the LED multi-color ring and strobe lighting makes for a cool look and livens up the party – fully customizable by both another button on top of the speaker, or with using the LG BOOM app you can select different colors and lighting movements to fit you mood. 3. Connectivity Options: Has standard simple to connect Bluetooth and USB inputs. Also sports two 6.3mm auxiliary audio inputs for connecting a microphone for karaoke as well as a guitar input for jam sessions. This really increases the speakers ability to connect to various devices and adds versatility. 4. Battery Life: For a portable speaker, battery life is crucial. This speaker's battery claims up to 12 hours on a single charge. I used this for a full 2 days at the pool before charging and it survived. The 12 hours is probably accurate with standard use but it seems fine and maintains power throughout that time. Hard to believe 12 hours without a plug wouldn’t be enough but make sure this battery life meets your usage needs. 5. Portability: This speaker has 2 nicely placed handles with comfortable grips making it super easy to carry around. No wheels but none needed as it weighs in at 23.6 pounds. I typically carry it around easily with one hand by one of the handles unless I’m taking it a long distance in which case the second handle is a nice addition. 6. Price: Price of this speaker with its features and performance seem to be right in line with other models in the same size category with similar specs. Seems to be good or at least comparable value for the money. 7. Warranty and Support: Comes with standard 1 year manufacturer's warranty on parts and labor as well as telephone customer support in case you encounter any issues with the speaker. Overall a very nice unit with great sound, just wish it were a little louder when cranked up all the way.

Works great but charge leaves some to be desired. I would buy again. Where can i get a new charger ?

Pros: - The lights are on point, customizable, and awesome. - I like that it can stand vertical or horizontal - It was easy to set up - It runs on battery, you just have to make sure it's charged before you use it. - Can connect to multiple types of devices. Great for parties. - Has an extra boost option that provides a fuller sound. - Really puts out a clear and full sound without the boost. - It looks great. - It has a handle for easy transport. For it's size and weight, that was a big deal. - The app is easy to use and provides some awesome customization such as lights. There is even a karaoke component to use. Cons - It's weight. It was a little on the heavier side. Thankfully it has a handle to make carrying it a little easier. - It's limited on it's inputs. Since this isn't classified as a professional audio speaker, there isn't an XLR jack. Not a big deal, but would have been nice instead of using an adapter. Overall this speaker brings the party. I love it. It's great to use indoors or outdoors. Anyone can easily connect to it if they want. I am going to recommend this to anyone I talk to. Great product!

This is the speaker that goes well in any setting. Its portable with a wide array of settings with the provided app. I was looking for a speaker to use around the pool. With hours of battery life and resistance to splashed water, it’s the perfect solution. When I turned it on the first time, I was blown away by the amazing sound. Distortion free deep rich bass and crystal clear mid and high notes even at the loudest volume. In the outdoor setting, the range is at least a few hundred feet. I then took it to a picnic pavilion. Here it really shined. The Bluetooth connection remained stable, and the microphone input made any announcements easy. That evening some karaoke kept the party going. The lighting effects are equally impressive. Whether tailgating, outdoor gatherings, the beach, or anytime you need to pump up the party, this is a must have addition! Softball, soccer and football games at the local park will see this speaker rooting on the home team! Overall, this speaker will not disappoint. It’s a well-designed performer that will take your audio experience wherever you’d like. At our place, it’s the star of the party.

This is a big party speaker. It is about the same size as a smaller professional speaker you might see at Karaoke night at the Bar. The lights on it work well and they are bright enough, especially in dim situations. Can connect to this all sorts of ways. Microphone worked great, also Guitar work, it works okay as a basic Guitar amp. You can use this for simple do it yourself Karaoke with a Microphone with a longer cord, a laptop and a bigger screen. It sounds pretty good for a battery powered party speaker. I connected to it directly from a laptop, also Bluetooth from a laptop and phone. All worked fine. It gets pretty loud and decent bass, a little less clear at very loud volume, but I am not an audiophile. It runs on the battery for at least an hour with all the bells and whistles turned on and music player with mic and guitar input. For a long party/setup, would recommend it be plugged into wall power. Fairly easy to carry around. If it was a bit bigger and heavier, would want built in wheels and telescoping handle. I really recommend for a party speaker, this should get the job done for all but the biggest spaces.

This speaker has been such an awesome summer gadget! I've used it for all my house parties/get-togethers. The build quality is nice and sturdy. It seems like it will be durable over time and last quite a while. However, It is on the heavier side so be cautious when you're moving it around. I do enjoy the customizable LED ring; the app is a must-have to get the full experience. The battery life is pretty good, it's rated for 12 hours but I honestly haven't used it that long in one sitting. I mostly use it where I have access to an outlet but I can see this being perfect for a lake/beach day. It's also IPX4-rated so that helps! It gives you the option to plug in a mic or a guitar which can be very fun. I utilized the mic option during a karaoke night, so fun and easy to get all set up. The sound quality is pretty good as well! I'm not an expert by any means, but I genuinely have no complaints. However, the Sound Boost feature is also a great add-on. I find myself keeping it on whenever I use the speaker. Overall, I'd say this is a great package deal!

Speaker came in a large box and was packed nicely so it would not be damaged. I think companies are trying to be less wasteful by not packing items in a shipment box. It arrived in its packaging box. Out of the box it was already at a 70% charge which is pretty good. As soon as I turned it on and connected via bluetooth, it asked if I wanted to download the app, which I did. There is also a QRS code you can scan beforehand so in case it does to ask the you try to connect. I like the app because you can play with the lights and customize your own personal color sequence. I also like that you can adjust the volume and the volume to the microphone ( if you are using a microphone and doing karaoke). You can also do different voices with the app on the microphone if you want to get a little silly with friends or the kiddos. The opening to the back also has a magnetic area so when you are using a microphone or guitar, you can magnetically attach the cover so it is not dangling and can be ripped off if someone is not careful. I started using the speaker at about 10 am for a few hours. I left home, came back around 5pm, started using the speaker again to play music until it died around 9pm. The next day I started charging it around 11am and at noon I checked the speaker and it was at 50%. I checked it again about 1pm and it was at 90%. I would say it takes about 2 1/2 hours to reach a full charge. I love how loud the speaker can go and how clear the music it. You can adjust the bass, treble and the sound quality in the app. You can also download your music directly in the app or you can play it in any of the other apps that you normally play music from. Even on a low volume, the music is clear enough to hear. We played music in our backyard at night while we had a bonfire. We had the volume very low at a distance, but the sound quality was clear. I would def recommend this speaker.

This LG speaker is large and heavy. The sound is good but not loud in an open area. The battery lasts pretty long and it’s easy to get setup. The app has extra features The speaker comes in the box with a power cord and quick start guide only. You do not need much else to get started but there is an online guide to download that provides additional information. You can simply connect to your mobile device via Bluetooth to begin. If you download the app there are additional features available like light controls, sound equalizer, and music mixing/sound effects among others. You can have the lights match the music or separate pattern and link up with your phone lights (will drain phone battery if you leave it running) The speaker says water resistant and the back has a rubber cover protecting a usb, power, microphone, guitar jacks. There is a karaoke option The speaker says 12 hours of nonstop play. I have not drained the battery yet after a full charge but only used it for a few hours Indoor the speaker is plenty loud but out in an open field on full blast it lacks The speaker is about 10”x10”x30” and is pretty heavy. It would be nice if this included wheels or a cart because I wouldn’t want to carry it more than 50’ Overall a good speaker, great for indoor not blasting for outdoor. Pretty heavy so don’t plant to carry it to the park. Easy to setup and many features on the app. Cool light display

LG hits another homerun in the portable (if that's what you consider this, it's quite larger and has quite a but of mass). That being said the sound quality is really good, at standard levels and can be adjusted with the app to several preset or customizable levels. this will get loud enough from most application, not out door disco ready but loud enough that the neighbors will complain. The battery life is really good especially if you don't use the disco lights, it rates at 12 hrs and I pretty confident it will hit that and then some.. The app is intuitive and fairly easy to use if you ever has anything in the LG echo system, I would like to see LG combine some of their audio apps into one, I have 3 LG audio apps and they all look pretty much the same from the icon standpoint.. The karaoke feature is work well however you have to purchase the mic separately. Now for the thing I didn't like like and it is minor are minor - you can't turn the strobe light off independently from the woofer light- this get a little annoying for me.

The speaker was delivered on time and packed well. There were no damaged or any scratches on it. The provided directions for set up were easy to follow and it took about 5 minutes to connect the speaker to the tv and iPhone. In addition, you can enhance the user experience by downloading LG Xboom app, which allows to manage the volume, equalizer, and woofer lighting. It is portable ( little bit on the heavy side), has a sturdy handle to carry around. The speaker has clear omnidirectional sound and bright lights. In addition, it also offer one cool feature- DJ mode( which has few music enhancing extravagant choices).Furthermore, it also has a sampler creator feature ( which allows up to three custom five minutes recording). Will be used for fast desktop speaker mostly, which recently lost its cheapo ones, will return the full scope musical extravagance of my past, maybe even a disco moment. It works as a great entertainment speaker for parties! Overall very happy with the speaker!! Thank you LG for another great product!!
