Update: March 2024.

I have now bought a second Charge 5, to allow stereo pairing. To say the sound blows me away is an understatement. Individually, the Charge 5 is a fantastic speaker, and I raved about it in my original review below. As a stereo pair, the sound is taken up to another level! For around £250 for both speakers, you have room filling separation, fabulous open clarity, rich bass, and of course the total versatility that portable Bluetooth speakers can bring! The pairing process is easy, via the JBL Portable App, and takes seconds. The reward is immense. I urge you to buy one. Then I urge you to buy a second.

Original review:

I really love this speaker for so many reasons. Mainly of course the sound quality. That’s the most important aspect of any speaker for me. The sound from the Charge 5 is open and clear, I hear so much detail, even in complex musical passages.

There was plenty of charge when firing it up for the first time, pairing was immediate, and the JBL portable app was also an immediate success. The unit feels substantial and robust, even though I have no intention of taking it to the beach, submerging it in water, and my pool party days are long gone!! Hang on, I’ve never been to pool party!!

From playing my first tracks, I was aware of a wide grin on my face! This unit may be top quality, but it’s also fun! It makes you smile. The opposite was true for me, with a Sony SRS-XG300 that I bought at the same time - tempted by a great Black Friday deal on the Sony. I returned the Sony and will buy a second Charge 5 to have the option of stereo pairing.

Back to the Charge 5. I was very happy with the clarity of the sound fresh from the box, and even happier with some mild tweaking of the app equaliser. It didn’t make a huge difference, but a subtle one. I do have various other portable Bluetooth speakers, including a Soundcore motion boom plus, but I can already tell the Charge 5 will become my go-to choice. My Audio Pro Addon C5A has beautiful rich sound, but is of course mains only.

I’d read so many reviews of various speakers, and the Charge 5 usually is very favourable reviewed, especially by What Hi-Fi, where it gets many awards. I can now understand why. This is an absolute joy, and will make me listen to even more music than I already do! I’m a very VERY happy buyer.

I am writing this review after using this product for three weeks. Here are a few things you should consider while buying a Bluetooth speaker and where the JBL speaker stands in these parameters.

1. Sound - The sound quality of this speaker is extraordinary compared to its size. The sound is crystal clear at the highest volume, and the speaker performs well in delivering mids and highs. JBL signature Bass is the USP of this company, and this product is not an exception. However, it would be foolish (and unreasonable) to expect a home theatre experience from this product. It has a 30W speaker compared to more than 60W speakers of a typical home theatre system.

2. Battery - It delivers what JBL claims in its advertisement. The battery easily lasts for 20 hours when the speaker is used at 50% volume (loud enough to shake a small-sized room). Even at higher volumes of 80-90%, the speaker lasted more than 14 hours during my test use.

3. Build Quality - The speaker weighs around 1 kg and has a solid build quality. It feels sturdy and premium and has got a very good quality finish.

4. Power Bank - This speaker can be used as a power bank to charge your device in need. A handy option if you are in dire need of fuel for your phone (obviously when you are travelling).

5. Other features - Add-ons like water resistance and dust resistance seem to work based on my current usage with this product.

Cons - The only downside of this product is not being able to produce stereo sound when multiple JBL speakers are connected. It delivers mono sound (which is fine as the company doesn't advertise this product as stereo sound speakers. The difference between a stereo and a mono sound is that stereo audio is capable of producing the perception of sounds coming from different directions, whereas mono audio can not produce this effect.

Overall Review - This is a great product for those who like to party on the go. It's highly portable, has got great battery life, build quality and brilliant sound with JBL signature Bass. I am certain nobody is going to regret buying this product.

Very impressive little speaker. Sound is great for the price you pay. Remember, this is a £130 speaker, not a £500 or £5000 speaker so if you are looking for exceptional sounds, dig deeper in your pocket.
Set up is super quick and easy and you can start making a noise withing 30 seconds.
Size is pretty good and weight is heavy enough that makes it feel like a quality product. USB -C connection and power bank is great. Charge your phone while playing music.

I previously had a smaller £60 Bluetooth speaker which did a decent job. I decide to upgrade, so I read a lot of reviews and finally decided on this model in silver. It was very well protected in its packaging and looked a quality item. When I set it up and played my music, I was blown away with how good it is. It comes with its own app where you can control base etc. but I’ve never needed to do that. It’s a doddle to connect to and has a much better Bluetooth range than my previous speaker. It’s sturdy and smart looking.
It’s worth pointing out that there is no button on it to skip songs but that’s easily done through the device you’re using. So not a problem for me.
Overall, I’m very satisfied with my purchase and wouldn’t be without this speaker.

I love my White JBL. It's got great sound for a fairly small speaker. It is perfectly portable and has excellent battery life. It feels really well made too. However I find it slightly odd that the main speaker cones are exposed at either end, so if you are not careful they would be fairly easy to damage. Because of this I put mine back in it's box when I'm taking it away with me, another option would be to get a carry case...
