Let me start by saying I love this speaker. I work at Walmart and we have these for $59, and only in black, camo, and silver. I’ve been wanting one for a while so I decided to go on here and check for cheaper prices first. Boy, am I glad I did! Not only was I able to get these for a good $20 cheaper, but in my favorite color; pink!
These are very good quality speakers, the first thing I did when I got mine was throw it in the pool to see if it was really waterproof like it says. I only left it in there for about a minute because I just wanted to hurry up and listen to music, but it does indeed float and no piece of hardware seems to have suffered as a result (there’s a rubber piece that covered the aux and charging port, and I worried that water might deep in after so long. But that appears to have not been the case). So if you’re thinking of taking one of these to go casually canoeing or kayaking, I would definitely recommend it, just so long as you’re not going white water rafting or anything intense (the speaker is pretty small and can fit in the palm of your hand, so it might get lost a bit too easily in rapids even if it does float).
Now, onto the sound. The sound quality itself is - in my opinion - about what you’d expect from JBL. Very pristine and clear, no lags or sudden disconnections from Bluetooth like some speakers have. The volume honestly doesn’t get all that high, even with your phone and the speakers’ volume at full max. However, it’s plenty loud enough for normal folk to enjoy while you’re swimming, hiking, boating, working, or whatever. Though when you take into consideration its small size, I am honestly impressed with how loud it gets. So if you’re wanting something compact that you can blast the neighbors out of house and home with, this definitely isn’t for you.
Now the clip. Let’s face it, the thing that probably attracts us most about this speaker is the fact it has a built-in clip for you to take it wherever you want; portable music! And it honestly accomplishes that feat really really well. A lot of cheaper clips won’t stay straight when you try to hook them onto things, and you have to physically move it back into place to fully ‘hook’. Not this thing. I’ve hooked it onto doorknobs, backpacks, the belt loops of my jeans...I’ve never had to readjust. Just clip and go. And for that reason alone I feel this thing is a keeper.
The battery life is supposed to be around 10 hours, and I honestly haven’t used it a WHOLE lot so far but it feels like it lasts longer to me. That may be just because I’ve been using it for a few hours on and off and not for the 10 hours straight, but the battery still lasts a good while. I got about 8-9 hours right out of the box alone, with no charging.
The ONLY thing that bugs me about this thing are the tiny, almost microscopic rubber nubbies on the bottom. I know they’re probably there for traction or whatever if you set it down on something, but they really irritate me to feel against my skin when I’m holding or carrying it. However it’s a small thing that’s definitely not a dealbreaker, and 90% of the time it’s gonna be hooked to something and not rubbing against my skin anyways. So other than that little thing this speaker is 100% gold to me!
Basics overall:
1. Sound quality: 9/10
2. Volume: 7/10
3. Portability: 10/10
4. Waterproofness: 10/10 (though granted, I haven’t extensively tested this one, how long are you really gonna leave this thing in the water?)
5. Battery life: 10/10
6. Color: 10/10 (I know the pink looks terrible in the photos I provided, but I took them at nighttime under a *very* yellow light. Under normal lighting conditions it looks just like the stock photo)

Takes a beating!
When I originally bought this it was to play music while I work. I am a handyman by trade and needed something durable to put up with being tossed around on occasion and hanging off my belt loop all day. After hours of researching reviews on this and other products I pulled the trigger. I have NOT been disappointed.This has taken any abuse with stride. I mean ANY… it was returned to me today after I left it on my trucks brush guard while working on said truck. Where the neighbor found it tells a story. It was a half mile from my house and I had to have been going almost 80 mph when this thing decided it wanted to fly! I can just imagine it flying through the air. Still blaring death metal while its trajectory carried it to an uncertain fate. Like Palpatine from Star Wars, some how it survived! The only signs of its ill fated voyage are a bent clip and a few new dings and scratches. I have since powered it up, and to my surprise, it came to life and connected to my phone as if nothing had happened! Still able to blast away my favorite tunes.In short it’s fantastic sound and now obviously VERY RUGGED durability have sold me on this model. And I couldn’t suggest it more.

Color: SandVerified Purchase
I got the Sand color to be used for photoshoot sessions to hype people up, it’s just a nice touch and the sound is great, nothing spectacular but good for a small zone, it can get loud enough to the point where it’s disruptive to the public lol. No problems with connecting to my iPhone 13 on Spotify, but I haven’t tried disconnecting and reconnecting to new phones a whole lot. Overall good for the price, I personally would have gone for a different color though. The Sand is more of a khaki and I think pink would be prettier.
One note though, the barcode sticker was placed DIRECTLY over the serial number. Super annoying especially since you need the serial number to register for warranty, but I guess I won’t be returning anyways.
