Dynamic Light Shows: this speaker features integrated light shows, adding an extra element of excitement to your parties. The lights synchronize with the music, enhancing the atmosphere and creating a more immersive experience. Mainly the the 6 small lights that show as stars
Versatile Connectivity: this PartyBox supports various connectivity options, including Bluetooth, USB, AUX, and even guitar and microphone inputs. This versatility allows you to connect a wide range of audio sources and instruments, catering to different musical preferences and setups.
Portability: Even though it is larger and heavier, the PartyBox 120 still features a built-in handle for easier transportation. It's designed to be portable enough to take to outdoor gatherings or events, although it might be less convenient for frequent travel.
CONS:
Battery: For a speaker of this caliber, boasting such an array of features and commanding this price point, one might expect a more substantial battery capacity. During my own usage at moderate party volume levels, the battery fell short of the advertised 12-hour mark, lasting closer to the range of 6 to 8 hours.

JBL PartyBox Club 120
on April 4, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL PartyBox Club 120 is a portable, wireless speaker that is perfect for indoor or outdoor use.
The PartyBox 120 features a durable plastic exterior with a very nice mesh speaker grille. The speaker has IPX4 water resistance that means that it can come into contact with water splashes as well as dust without suffering damage. As such, it is ideal for outdoor use without having to worry about if it starts to rain or if you want to use it poolside.

As such, it is ideal for outdoor use without having to worry about if it starts to rain or if you want to use it poolside.
The PartyBox 120 is no light weight – it weighs in at 31 lbs. To compensate for the weight, a hinged handle that extends out from the upper center allows the speaker to be comfortable to carry. I was able to easily carry the speaker up and down a fairly long set of stairs leading to my patio.
As any good Bluetooth party speaker should, the PartyBox 120 produces vibrant lighting effects. The PartyBox 120 has a light panel near the top and bottom with additional supplemental lights on the top panel. My grandson thoroughly enjoyed creating his own light show with the simple to use controls.
Speaker operation is done through top panel that includes some physical buttons and knobs for playback control as well as a slot for you to place your Smartphone without the risk of it falling. The PartyBox 120 control panel is in the center and two dials on each side and it has an Auracast multi-speaker pairing button in the center. There are also a series of buttons located between the control panel and the handle that provide additional effects. The arrangement of available ports is located on a rear and that can be hidden through a retractable panel to allow its waterproof capacity.
The PartyBox 120 incorporates Auracast speaker pairing for multi-speaker connections. The 120 has the capability of daisy-chaining multiple speakers using a wired connection. The PartyBox 120 has a dedicated microphone input and a second input that supports a microphone or guitar, with a button letting you toggle between each mode.
The PartyBox 120 includes Bluetooth 5.4 support which is a step up from the 5.1 offered by other speakers and consequently offers superior wireless communication improvements. Unlike other Bluetooth speakers which require speakers to have a master and slave relationship, Auracast allows multiple speakers to connect directly through the source device. I was easily able to connect to other Bluetooth speakers I own, including another JBL branded speaker.
The speaker uses the JBL PartyBox app that offers comprehensive speaker control. Although it is available for both Android and Apple devices, I only evaluated the app with my Apple device. The PartyBox 120 includes additional EQ control. The EQ options include Movie, Vocal, Chill, Signature, and Custom. The custom EQ provides a 5-band graphic EQ. The ability to adjust the EQ profile allowed me to create personalized sound depending on whether I was indoors or outdoors. The midrange and treble sound in the PartyBox 120 offers more detail at the higher frequencies. The vocals are distinct, and the bass is deeper and more powerful.
The PartyBox 120 can get impressively loud and can create a true party atmosphere. We recently had a party on my large patio and the speaker performed admirably. I had it tucked out of the way and had several of my friends wondering where the great sound was coming from! The PartyBox 120 performs very well at maximum volume and provides more clarity at these high-volume levels without distortion.
The JBL PartyBox 120 provides a battery life of up to 12 hours of playtime, depending on the volume level and features used. The 120 can recharge in about 3.5 hours. I have not had the opportunity to determine the max life of the battery.
In conclusion, the PartyBox 120 is a solid speaker. With its powerful JBL Pro Sound and a lightshow that syncs to the beat of the music, it will live up to its name.

JBL PartyBox 120
on April 5, 2024
Posted by: DreDay
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm really enjoying the JBL Party Box 120. The sound is really great. I brought two mics and the sound was so clear with no feedback. Can't wait to have karaoke night! The addition of the JBL PartyBox app is a plus. The app allows you to ajust the sound of the speaker and also the microphone. And the special efx sounds adds more fun while playing music. The only issue I have is the JBL Partybox app doesn't connect right away. I have to close the app 2 or 3 times for it to connect to my tablet or phone. The kids likes the lights on the front.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great medium size speaker. I absolutely love the flip up handle design. This thing packs a punch and has some cool features that go along with the jbl app. Pairing these together is really nice. Sound quality is fantastic and it’s loud enough for a decent size party.

This Thing BOOMS

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you're searching for a portable speaker that's not only powerfully present, but can also rival a light show of a concert, then the JBL Partybox 120 is a perfect match. This speaker is designed to take your party to the next level with its impressive features and robust construction.
First, let's talk about the design. The Partybox 120 has a rugged construction that can withstand the rigors of outdoor adventures. Its splash-proof design ensures that you can party by the pool or at the beach without worrying about water damage. The folding handle makes it easy to carry, while also providing a possible way to hang the speaker wherever you need it. Its a sleek and attractive speaker that carries a real presence.
What truly sets this speaker apart is the intense sound quality and the bright LED lights that sync up to the music. The absolute volume and bass of the music will be felt rather than just heard. Inside a house, the volume will really only need to be set at halfway to have it boomin plenty. That along with the bright lights creates a truly intense and upper tier party speaker. The sound quality is also impressive, with clear highs, deep bass, and a balanced midrange that ensures every note is heard with clarity. Pair that with the ability to plug in a mic and a guitar and you'll be truly rockin.
Another standout feature of this speaker is its long battery life. With up to 12 hours of playtime on a single charge, you can keep the party going all night long without having to worry about running out of power. And if you do happen to run low on battery, the swappable battery design allows you to easily replace it and keep the music playing.
One of the best features of the Partybox 120 is its ability to sync with multiple speakers. Using the built-in connectivity options, you can pair multiple speakers together to create a synchronized sound system that fills the entire space with music. This makes it perfect for larger gatherings or events where you need to cover a wide area with sound.
Overall, the JBL Partybox 120 is a powerhouse of a portable speaker that delivers on all fronts. With its bright lights, rugged construction, long battery life, and impressive sound quality, it's sure to be the life of the party wherever you go. Whether you're hosting a backyard barbecue, hitting the beach, or going on a camping trip, this speaker is the perfect companion for any adventure. Highly recommended!

Party Champion with Flash and Boom

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL PartyBox Club 120 is a booming box speaker that sounds fantastic. Music blares out of it with excellent fidelity while the bass makes you tremble. The light effects it offers only add to the speaker's partying chops, turning it into a great addition for any party.
The PartyBox 120 is impressively loud, and works well for outdoor or indoor gatherings (though your neighbors might complain). I've only used it at the 40-70 volume range so far and I'm still fairly sure my neighbors heard all the songs I played.
The speaker has playback and volume controls on the top for convenience and they feel nice to use as well. The speaker's sound profile and lightshow are both customizable in the app, allowing great personalization for both features. It's battery life is excellent, capable of lasting through any party though it can also remain plugged in for longer times. The speaker's IPX rating is another plus, which definitely makes me a little more comfortable when I bring it around for pool parties.
The speaker also has inputs for guitars and microphones for karaoke, something I've not tried yet, but am greatly looking forward to at my next party. All in all, its a fantastic choice for those looking for a party box speaker.

This Bluetooth party speaker is a megastar!
on April 21, 2024
Posted by: Tedschaumburg
from Chicago, IL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The size works really well, mid-sized and weighs about 24 lbs. with a handle on top making it easy to take on the go, with battery life of 12 hours. My first impression id the premium materials and design, feel durable and made to last and waterproof IP rating, premium buttons. One thing to note is there is a swappable battery, you can keep the music going for long playback as well increasing the longevity of the speaker itself. The sound is amazing with deep base sporting 2 tweeters and 2 woofers with 160 watts of power using Bluetooth 5.4. I have used it as a musical backdrop for the balcony or at the beach, it’s excellent. There are also DJ sound features that can be controlled on the or right on the top. Along the back panel which lights up at night, you have several inputs an USB, Axillary, 2 mic inputs (for karaoke, and guitar input. There is also a line out port so you can daisy chain this speaker this speaker to virtually any other speaker for added sound, in addition within the phone app you can connect other JBL speakers to create a stereo wireless sound stage. The stand out feature for me is the lightshow up front! The amazing and dazzling lights are very immersive giving the room a party vibe and of course can be turned off when I use this speaker within my home.
