I purchased this as a gift for a family member for Christmas to replace an older, out of date JBL that they loved. It was perfect. No issues with set up and the sound quality is even better than the last one. It’s got a nice, sleek look to it and I think it was well worth the money.

This is literally Top Notch Mint condition Speaker. There’s no way this can be called refurbished/renewed. This is open box or New. The box is in mint condition , no scratch , no scuff literally nothing. The unboxing gives new feel . It comes with the original charging cable and paper. The speaker itself looks so flawless to the point . It’s easily called new. already came with 80% battery in the box , easy to use. (First time buying a jbl speaker so the speaker is quite bigger than I thought but it’s cool. “ SO GO AHEAD AND SAVE LIKE 40+ $$ instead of buying new for 140$ . (sound quality is Great!!)

Looks New .....sounds fantastic

I love it! The size and the sound quality are perfect. I can carry it everywhere and my wife wants one of her own. Great product for the price!

After reading reviews (on Amazon and other sites) on middle-weight BT speakers, I settled on the JBL Charge 5. Lots of battery life. LOTS of loud, clear, deep musical sound. Easy to pair to my iPhone. This speaker comes with and charges via USB-C cable, one of my pre-requisites (I'm trying to narrow down the gaggle of cable mess in my drawers and bags!). I'm super happy with the sound quality and quantity. I take it to our outdoor pickleball courts and everyone on all four courts can hear the music clearly. The speaker is big enough to have great sound. It's small enough to toss into my racket backpack along with all my other stuff. I gave this speaker a 4-star rating because it's missing some fairly common features that other speakers in the same price category come with, like microphone for taking phone calls on speakerphone and built-in "smart" assistant. I saved some money by going with a "Renewed" device. The description states: "This product is in "Excellent condition". The screen and body show no signs of cosmetic damage visible from 12 inches away." Well...not exactly. That certainly wasn't the case with the first unit they shipped me. I got a speaker that appears (quite obviously from 12 inches and beyond) to have "survived" its first life in the back of a oil rig work truck that was driven down long, dusty, back-country, gravel roads. It was scuffed up and dirty. I immediately submitted for a replacement unit. The 2nd unit was in much better shape with only a few minor scuffs on one end. Everything works just like new, so no complaints over performance. If having a microphone for speaker-calls or built-in digital assistant (Alexa, Siri, Hey Google, etc) isn't a must-have, then this speaker is a 5-star unit in every way.

Good sound indoors and out. Bluetooth pairing works really well, even switching to different phones or laptops. In a pinch there is a USB port for charging other devices.

The JBL Charge 5 is everything I hoped. It's compact has great sound and the battery life does not disappoint. I've had the thing playing off the TV since noon yesterday and it's just after 1:00 p.m. now. So more than 24 hours. JBL says the battery life depends on the volume level and admittedly I've had mine at low. Still... This thing has plenty of battery life left. I think the base level on a Bose is probably a little better but... I am not disappointed with the base level on this small speaker. I was so happy with it I ordered a second to pair two together. 10 plus plus stars on this one hopefully I'm just as happy with the second one that comes in today!

Love my JBL Charge 5. Awesome sound and haven’t had any issues connecting like some people had complained about. Thx Amazon

Great bluetooth speaker, not heavy, battery life has been very impressive and great value for money.

Out of all the smaller portable speakers this is the best all rounder. Mids and highs are well defined for a speaker with such powerful bass. Now with the new #JBL one app, it has an adjustable EQ as well. Only drawback for some, is that to get full stereo sound you need two of them. Still two are cheaper than one boombox 3, making this speaker a bargain. It can be connected to Wi-Fi for direct streaming of music from Spotify and some other music services. In conclusion, keeping in mind that you will need two for true stereo sound, I say go ahead and buy it! You will be pleasantly surprised with it's performance for the price!

Has the expected jbl sound and the battery lasts all day. Bluetooth connects flawlessly.

Tiene una excelente calidad de sonido que supera las expectativas por el tamaño del dispositivo

Perfecto el sonido, la bocina como nueva, pensé que estaría un poco deteriorada, pensando que es de segunda mano.
