    I was blown away by the quality of the sound reproduction with this Bluetooth! High energy alternative, classical, new age, folk. It can do it all at all volume levels. I use this around my house, in the yard and its good to know its waterproof. Battery lasts a long time. Super easy and effective blue tooth connection. I down loaded the JBL app and also set my own equalization settings to intensify the bass and high end and it is quite impressive. For the purpose of a portable Bluetooth speaker, this is a rock solid product.

    This is the best speaker you’ll ever get.It’s so easy to move around from room to room or even while traveling. The quality is amazing, music can be really loud or it can be perfect for just some low tunes. Never had a problem with connecting it or the battery life. It’s not one of those huge ugly speakers either, simple, and effective. 10/10.

    One of my favorite purchases from Amazon! Sounds great, long lasting battery and super easy to use (forget all that ignorance about how Bluetooth is difficult, JBL makes it easy) Don’t forget to buy the silicone case/carrier with the shoulder strap. This makes it easy to hang, carry or hold as you’re listening to your favorites. Quality item for a great price. Worth every penny 👍

    I’ve only had my speaker for a few days and use it daily! Connects easy, holds a charge, loud and clear sound. Tonight, I ran over it with my SSR500 Side by side. I just knew it was ruined and I was so sad. Got it home, all pieces still in tacked, but had to wrap it back in place and IT STILL WORKS! And CHARGES! Yall, I ran it over and heard it his the medal undercarriage before smashing it in clay…sound it slightly muffled due to it being slightly off…but I am all the way impressed and will only be buying JBL from now on!

    My wife bought me this as a surprise. We needed a speaker for out by the pool/hot tub and something loud enough to be heard throughout the back yard. This was much better than I could’ve hoped for. The battery seemingly lasts forever once you get a full charge, it’s waterproof, I’ve dropped it a few times and it doesn’t even have a scratch on it. What’s great is it can be used with basically every device. We do outdoor movie nights and I just connect my firestick to the speaker. Once connected to anything, you just power it on and it connects automatically. Highly recommend.

    I’ve had several JBL speakers and this is by far my favorite. The sound is clean, clear, crisp, and loud. I love the waterproof feature since we spend a lot of time by the pool. It is very easy to setup and chain to other Bluetooth speakers. Having the ability to charge a phone or other device from it is also a huge bonus. You’ll be very with this product.

    Initially, my preference was the Bose Soundlink Mini II with its smooth notes and decent sound quality in a small transportable package; that is, until I heard comparison against a JBL Charge 4 on YouTube. Based on that review and others, I purchased this speaker for its waterproof, multi-connect and sound.Great price: You can buy a Charge 3 direct from JBL for $129 with 12 color options, with price point being on par with Amazon.Sounds great; EXCELLENT better describes it. If you have a Charge 3 there isn’t enough improvement to justify buying a Charge 4. The Charge 4 went from two smaller speakers to one slightly larger speaker which improved bass frequency from 65Hz to a deeper 60Hz. When the JBL arrived we conducted our own comparison against a Bose Soundlink Mini II and – Wow. The Charge 4 is much clearer, has better frequency response and has better sound presence in the room. It’s a bit larger and heavier than the Soundlink Mini II which might turn some off, but to me; if I’m going to carry any speaker like this then I’m taking the same care and am sure I can find just a little more room.Good packaging but NO INSTRUCTIONS?! Not that charging and setup are all that difficult, but this is my first device that requires USB C, first anything that arrived with ZERO printed information, and rechargeable device that arrived with ZERO anything to charge it with. /// Setup was easy. I bought a USB C cable from the nearest gas station and plugged it in for 3 hours since it came somewhat charged already. Once charged, press the Bluetooth button then connect to your phone or other device. For settings, I always recommend phone volume to be no more than 1/2 to 3/4 volume then using the Charge 4 volume from there. This affords you plenty of up/down volume adjustment remotely from your phone and doesn’t task the internal sound processor….this, since it’s cheaper to replace/repair a Charge 4 than an expensive smartphone. You and someone else can be Bluetooth paired to this speaker at the same time.Battery Life: The built-in rechargeable Li-ion 7500mAH battery is strong. Not only does it support up to 20 hours of playtime (at lowest setting, and figure 10 hours at half volume), but it will also charge your phone and other devices via the USB port. I strongly suggest buying a protective case for it which will hold your charger, USB C charging cable AND any spare USB cable needed for cell phones.It has the same IPX7 waterproof as a iPhone, Samsung or other higher end smartphone. We place it on the deck without any worries of accidents from fluid spills, big splashes, being left in the rain, or even an accidental swim in the pool. Having that peace of mind alone is priceless.JBL Connect+: With Connect+ you can connect several of these to together for full sound experience. Put 4 in opposing corners of a large room, in different rooms, indoor and outdoors…heck, even in your car if your current stereo or speakers are crap.Bottom line – this being my FIRST Bluetooth speaker ever, and having friends that have made different choices for the speakers they have, I have zero regrets with my purchase after hearing it beside theirs. Bang for buck is spot on. I have excellent sound in a transportable package in a wireless speaker that is rugged, waterproof and allows multiple speakers as well as people to connect. I now proudly own the party favorite speaker for socials, events and private enjoyment. WIN!

    I’m a person who plays a few instruments and generally loves music. This speaker has a great sound from high to mids, to bass. The build quality is very good.I would buy again and would recommend to others.

    This is what I would expect from a JBL speaker. The sound is great for the size of this speaker. Rich bass.
