[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Pulse 5 is a nice sized portable speaker with powerful sound & bass. The quality sound is strong and clear no matter the genre of music or entertainment being played on it. The colors the speaker projects are so vibrant & captivating, you can't help but stare at it while awesome tunes play! This speaker commands attention with the cascade of light it gives out. It's perfect for gatherings or just hanging out.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This Bluetooth speaker is a superstar!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Its audio quality is really good for a Bluetooth speaker and I'm impressed with its volume output. A party speaker that’s designed to look almost like a lava lamp with a 360-degree light show, it syncs to the beat of your songs, dancing along with loads of vibrant colors and patterns. The App lets you change the color schemes and patterns, there are also ambient sounds built in that can be used when not streaming music to set the mood such as rain, crickets, traffic etc. I just received the speaker before the holidays and it turned out to be a to be a superstar at all my holiday gatherings and now that holidays are over I use it at the gym and pool to provide motivating beats. I know I will use this in the backyard, at the park and by the beach as it is water and dust proof with 12 hours of battery life. The light show is amazing, not sure if my pictures do it justice, especially at night by the pool. I was also able to connect another JBL Bluetooth speaker for stereo sound.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Disco illuminating music speaker
on January 11, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Pulse 5 is like a lava lamp with a speaker added. The glowing lights match the pulsing of music and had buttons to change the light show. The speaker has a pretty handy carry strapped attached to make it easy to take on the go. I somehow was able to get a scratch on the speaker although it's strach from minor scraps. The battery life is pretty good and there's an battery life indicator on the side of the speaker to let you know the speakers volume. The only thing that's missing is a volume up and down button on the speaker.

This speaker sounds WAY better than the previous model, but it doesn’t have media control buttons.

He ain't heavy, he's my JBL Pulse 5.

I had the JBL Pulse 3 and I decided to upgrade. Y'all! This speaker is amazing! I love the way it looks, the light show is awesome. The sound is great, perfect tones and doesn't distort if you turn it up. I love how heavy it is. The only thing I don't like is that the light show doesn't seem to sync to the music, it's more random than on beat, even if you adjust the light show speed. But I would definitely buy this speaker again. Love it.
