[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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 added strap this is a game changer which should have been added to the whole charge line. 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. The sound is amazing from this speaker and imo needs no more adjustment bc playing this and testing different volume levels it gets very ear piercing at max volumes so great job in that department . I would have like to see either a extra speaker on the opposite side for some 3d sound output and a exclusive colorway directly to this model and future models like a limited edition. Also i know that the name has always been called the jbl charge but using this to charge my phone is not practical anymore maybe in the earlier productions of the line but it seems phones now have longer battery life making this feature almost non existant maybe think of giving it something else revamping the name to fit the time.This is the perfect speaker for a college student in a dorm and can easily fit in a backpack 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!

Small but Mighty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This little speaker is a powerhouse! This speaker is about the size of a protein shaker but puts out a rich sound with a bass that hits surprisingly hard. I had this speaker for about an hour before my son claimed it as his own. The look and feel of this unit is high end. The adjustable carrying handle is a nice touch. This speaker has been used during outdoor and indoor workouts and has replaced the a larger speaker that we have been using the locker room before practice. I tend to plug it in every few days so I don't know how true it is to the 28hr playtime that is advertised. I highly anticipate this speaker making it's way into our bags when traveling.

The handle!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought the handle for this speaker was interesting.....I didn't realize how much I would love being able to so easily grab it, to move the charge 6 with me from room to room. I use it a lot to listen to music or podcasts while I cook, shower, and whatnot. It quickly and seamlessly connects with my phone when turned on. The blend of textures and finishes really up the style and quality feel. It doesn't seem to be able to connect to speakers that use party boost to link, but that's not that big of a deal - it delivers plenty of big sound on its own.

This speaker is a legit unit

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have just one warning about this, if you have kids you may have to hide it from them so they don't steal it. Sounds great, really good battery life, big sound yet portable. We use it while doing yard work, shooting hoops, camping, and any other time we want to share music or audiobooks. Don't have anything else to add, but if you've been considering it, don't wait any longer

Sexy, portable, and packs a punch!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the first speaker in the Charge line that I've tried, but I'm a big fan of this little guy. I mostly use it for outdoor gatherings, BBQs, park hangouts, etc. For those small/medium-sized group hangouts, previously I would use the JBL Go, which is even smaller but not quite as powerful. And for large gatherings/parties I would use an actual large speaker such as the Partybox. But the Charge fits great in that middle ground, where the Go might fall a bit short but the Partybox is overkill.
PROS: - Sexy / cool looks. Looks very sleek and modern, with the orange hue around the JBL logo, and the ! sign on both ends. - Nice and portable: At just under 1kg in weight and 9 in x 3.5 in it's easy to throw in the backpack or beach bag. Clearly not as lightweight as a JBL Go, but still very portable. - Comes with carry handle - Powerful sound: volume goes pretty pretty loud
CONS: - The one con I found, and the reason I subtracted 1 star (I would've subtracted half a star if it was possible) is that at higher volumes the sound isn't quite as clean. To be expected from a little guy like this one, but worth mentioning.

Amazing sound quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received my JBL Charge 6 about a month ago, and have enjoyed using it since. The built quality is premium which goes along with the sound quality. The battery life was amazing and a full charge lasted around 15 days for me.
The speaker had supreme bass, with crystal clear sound and strong vibrations. The bluetooth connectivity is strong and has good coverage. I was able to carry them to the park and play around with the music playing in the background.
I would definitely recommend the charge 6.

So far I've used it for almost a week it's amazingly great the 2 features that stood up to me were the wire lossless Audio and its play boost to 28 hours
