JBL Charge 4 Waterproof Wireless Bluetooth Speaker Bundle with Portable Hard Case - Black

I love the sound is really good and clear. I always use it when I’m cooking or taking a shower. I really like this product, would probably buy another one for my husband.

The sound is unsatisfactory. The app that connects the two in stereo is also difficult to operate and messy

Bought this based on description. Would have been excellent except it is truly a monaural sound. No doubt about it. I tried every EQ setting on my phone/IPod and nothing made it sound good. If you want a good JBL portable water proof device with awesome stereo sound, spend the extra $$ and get the Extreme 2. If you take advantage of Amazon’s rewards card offer, you can save $100!! Second best affordable sound is the Bose music box. Lots of sound from a small device.

Don’t let people convince you that stereo makes any difference in a product of this size. Stereo only makes a difference when your left and right ears hear slightly different sounds to create a more realistic listening experience in your brain. When two tiny speakers are right next to each other five feet away from your head playing in stereo both of your ears hear the same sound anyways, diminishing any stereo effect to about zero. I suppose a small speaker with right and left speakers facing sideways could, by virtue of the left and right channel sounds bouncing off of the environment, create a somewhat stereo image. But then you’d need to have the bass module in the middle and when playing outside with nothing from the left/right channels to bounce from you’d have an ill-defined, bass-heavy mess. JBL made a good choice here by going with a better quality racetrack speaker as opposed to two smaller “stereo” speakers and two bass modules on the ends. If you’re obsessed with stereo buy one of these and then buy a cheap used second one in a few years. With two Charge 4s and the JBL app you can put the two speakers several feet apart and play your music to them as left and right stereo pairs. With the speakers some distance apart you WILL hear a stereo effect. Pretty bitchin. Two things I’d like improved for the next version; You can charge your phone from the USB-A output but not the USB-C output. Both would be nice. A common feature on Bluetooth products is that if you double-click the play button you can advance to the next song and a triple-click goes back one song. On the Charge 4 the double-click feature works but there’s no way to go back and restart a song or go to the previous song without doing it from your phone or using Siri. Other than that I think the build quality is excellent and sound quality is about as good as you will get in a device of this size and price. It’s heavy and durable and the material quality make it feel like what it costs.

Muy buen sonido, aún al aire libre. Lástima que no incluye el altavoz para responder las llamadas, ubiese sido muy útil.

I ordered this Bluetooth speaker on Sunday afternoon and it was at my house on Tuesday before lunch. This is not my first JBL speaker but my 3rd. Each time I get more impressed. The bass is rich and the highs are so clear. Love that it came with a carrying case.

Love it ! Definitely a great quality sound . If you’re looking for a nice speaker that sounds very good . Look no more .. I love mine . Me and my husband can both be linked via Bluetooth at the same time and play songs from our phones .

Buena calidad y buen sonido.

I love this speaker. I keep buying them as gifts for people. They work great! Great sound. Easy to use. It keep a charge for a long while. I would recommend this product. I bought one for my elderly mother who is not tech savvy and she is using it on her own with ease. That is saying a lot.

When the item arrived, it looked as though the speaker box had already been opened. The carrying case zipper was broken and did not work. Very disappointed in the overall condition of the items. Reimbursement was not simple. Had to apply twice for it from Amazon. Went online and found the same item (different color) for $30 less. Pays to shop around.
