Jbl Waterproof Shower Speaker

So small but so powerful! And it's very cool that it's waterproof, it can be used as a shower speaker!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like how JBL upped the functionality of this smaller speaker. Previous small speakers wouldn't have extra functions like skip ahead a song, or back a song. This one does. Previous speakers would basically just have play/pause and volume. It's nice to have that if you would use this as like a shower speaker or something and don't want your phone in with you. It is rated as water proof to a degree, 30 minutes at a meter, so a shower is fine. It has a nice heavy feel and you can tell with the sound, suprisingly loud and good bass sound. I also like that you can now pair it to other speakers in it's class, creating a stereo sound. I might have to get another one to make use of that option. Really sharp look. The clip is heavy duty enough that I'm not worried about it breaking or not holding up. There's a JBL Portable app for controlling the sound EQ which is nice. They have a "playtime boost" mode where it's louder, and also saves battery which it does at the expense of the EQ sound. So that mode sounds a little tinny, but it's definitely louder and would maybe be good for podcast listening or audio books where you want a little more volume. The back has padded grips so you can set it on it's back and it won't wreck the finish or anything like that.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Clip 5 is a truly amazing small compact speaker with a big punch. The JBL Clip 5 connected very easily via bluetooth and using the JBL portable app, you can now customize your EQ and connect multi-speakers. The sound is very clear with a balanced highs and a nice punchy bass. It has an IP67 waterproof rating, and I have used it in the shower. I can honestly say it's waterproof. I like the big clip on it, so it hooks securely to my backpack. The the power and controls are easy to push. JBL has gone another level with this small compact speaker. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'll give it a 9 rating for sound, convenience, and portability.

This is our bedroom speaker and have it on while in the shower in the ensuite. The sound that comes out of this speaker is astounding.

Exactly what I was looking for! Great shower speaker, great for hikes, great sound!

I love JBL Electronics, they always seem to put a smile to my face while using these products, so let me give you the deets of my Charge 4 and how much I love this speaker. I call him Jumbo Beats Travel, JBL for short. This is my sidekick, this is my buddy that I take everywhere with me because, he is so easy to carry around wherever I need him to be with me. If I am in the kitchen he is always there with me unconditionally, in the shower you bet he's also there while I shower and jam out. Getting ready for work, yep he's there for me, and the best reason I love him being there with me is because he doesn't talk back and he plays what I want him to. I can stream him wirelessly from my phone, he will play for me up to 20 hours of playtime, and he is also waterproof, so if he's is playing a sad song and my tears are running down my face and get him wet, he will survive. I really like also that he can charge my phone with his convenient USB charge out. The beats and bass that he provides are just enough to tickle my fancy. He's a travel companion and goes to parks and camping with me, sometimes he gets me in trouble when he's playing to loud and I get told to turn him down, he just likes to jam that bass. I don't know what I would do with my best friend with all his innovative and epic looking self. He is so amazing and everyone needs to own the charge 4. He sounds so crisp and clear and I will never part with him until the day he is not able to function properly anymore, but until that day I will keep on vibing with my Jumbo Beats Travel He is my best friend and I highly recommend y'all should get a best friend like this also, he will not disappoint.

I've been a JBL person for many years, but I must say that putting this speaker next to my JBl JRX112M (the same speaker configuration), blew me away. I never thought JBL could be surpassed. I was wrong. This EV speaker did it. As a pro musician for many years, I rate this at the top 3 speakers in it's class, if not the top of the heap. I love the light weight for transporting, as I have to move my equipment 5 nights per week in Las Vegas. The sound reproduction is great. It actually put out more volume at the same mixer setting than the JBL. There are two things I would like to see changed. The handles should be on top (as the JBL), not on the sides. This will make the speaker easier to grab and load into a vehicle, instead of bending over and reaching for the handle on the side. Another change I would like to see, is that the cabinet would have both Speakon and 1/4 inputs, as some mixers don't have Speakon outputs, therefore requiring you to buy an adaptor. The JBL has both Speakon and 1/4 inputs. Otherwise, this speaker is an excellent choice...

Great speaker purchase for us. We love our JBL CHARGE 5.

Amazing speaker, better than JBL, better than Bose. It's crazy, I love it.

Excellent quality, this is my 4th JBL speaker in 5 years.
