I bought the Grip a month ago, mainly for workshop vibes. I am so impressed with it, the bass and volume for its small size is amazing. Love It !!

Small but Mighty
on April 9, 2026
Posted by: Brewcrew
This little speaker packs a punch. I received one as a gift and ordered a second immediatly after due to the connection feature. This speaker is small but mighty and is exactly what i was looking for. Perfect for backyard BBQs or a day at the beach/pool. Loud enough to jam to, small enough to fit in a bag and with the connectivity feature I can have zoned music instead of one massive bluetooth speaker cranked to 100!

Amazing Quality

Bought a JBL Grip a few weeks ago and I’ve been very happy with the sound quality and battery life. The volume range is great too - whisper quiet to loud enough for parties. Keep in mind that the USB-C charging cable is not included - I didn’t realize when I purchased it (not a big deal if you already have a USB-C laying around). Overall very happy with it and I’m considering buying another to test out the speaker synching feature.

Top Shelf Product that fits in your pocket

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was surprised by the sound coming out of this portable speaker. I mean it really sounded like a bigger speaker so much, I questioned the purpose of the bigger bluetooth speakers. Its omni directional sound was so good, you don’t have to point it in any specific direction. The app functionality if great and useful. To top it off is the very cool light bar on the back that looks like liquid and can change any color on beat. I can literally take it anywhere, you name it. JBL is professional grade in this arena. I mean if you look at the price compared to value and quality, it’s a no brainer. Always look for JBL…
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good little speaker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Use it by the pool and patio. Product has good battery life and recharges fairly quickly. Good sound clarity and bass for a small unit. We had a bigger boom box and this is so much easier to tote around and still has comparable sound.

No charger

Got this from my work as a 25 years of service gift. (I know that’s it)
And a charging cord is not included. That’s annoying!

Thanks for your feedback. To minimize e-waste, we consciously choose not to include a charging cable in our packaging. You can use any standard USB-C cable to charge your JBL Grip, as well as a power adapter compliant with the USB-C standard. Past products already have standardized USB-C cables, which can be reused for new products.

My new favorite speaker!

from Arcadia, CA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been really impressed with my JBL Grip speaker, for something so small it delivers surprisingly powerful and clear sound with bass that feels and punchy. Connecting it to my phone is quick and hassle-free and stays connected without dropouts. The battery easily last a full day so I don't have to worry about charging during trips or long hangouts. It's lightweight, sturdy and perfect for bring to the beach, park or while hiking. Even at higher volumes the sound quality crisp. For the price its an absolute steal and quickly became my go-to speaker.
