The JBL Charge 3 is an outdoor-friendly portable Bluetooth speaker that packs a considerable bass punch for its size and price.

Powerful audio performance with solid bass response and well-defined highs. Water-resistant design. Speakerphone functionality. Can charge mobile devices.
-
-
Cannot backward navigate tracks. A bit bulky. Light on accessories.
The Charge 3 is one of, if not the longest-lasting outdoor Bluetooth speakers you can buy.

Thumpy bass, Outstanding run time, Links up with other JBL Bluetooth speakers
-
-
Poor documentation, Audio lacks clarity and separation.
The JBL Charge 3 is bigger and bulkier than the now-classic UE Boom. The app doesn’t do a whole lot without a second compatible speaker. However, the clever design includes bass radiators at each end, a “foot” that permits stable horizontal play, and noticeable low-end improvement vs.

IPX7 waterproof, anti-roll design, Dual bass radiators, 6000 mAH power bank

Smartphone app is limited to configuring JBL Connect-enabled speakers
For a speaker that's big enough for a decent sound, but small enough to be somewhat portable go with the Charge 3.

Ultimately, the JBL Charge 3 is a decent-sounding speaker, that also happens to rugged, good-looking, has great stamina and is completely waterproof. It isn’t the last word in refinement, at least not when it comes to compact Bluetooth speakers.
The king of affordably priced portable Bluetooth speakers has returned. And it's bigger, better and more powerful than before. JBL has for a long time been the best at making portable speakers that were unbeatable.
Despite a bit of extra weight, the JBL Charge 3 is a Bluetooth speaker you can take anywhere – including your backyard pool thanks to its new waterproof exterior. And while it falters on the high notes, overall the Charge 3 strikes a great balance between sound, features and price.
This speaker is great for outdoor and indoor use for the not too overly scrutinizing listener. I say that based on other reviews who may listen to a specific type of music genre that have gripes about this product and rate it very poorly.
It's my first blue tooth speaker and it works very well. I was a little skeptical about it saying waterproof and what exactly it meant but I took it to the beach and it was sprinkling and it did just fine. The speaker can play very loudly and has an awesome bass, plus a great battery life.

Good bass, Good battery life
Set this speaker in the center of a room and turn up half way and you can hear this bad boy in every room of a 8000 Sq foot building
This speaker is great it's loud for it size. I like how I don't have to worry about it getting wet.

Attractive Design
An associate bought one of these, and I was impressed by it's rich, warm, powerful sound and clarity. So I bought one. Now, I keep a close eye on it because everybody wants to borrow it and eventually that will be on a non-return basis. I reluctantly agreed to let my girl take it away on her trip...
Used it on a cruise. performed flawlessly. easy to use and holds a charge, not to mention sound was great
