JBL CHARGE 5 OVERVIEW

JBL Charge 5 comes as the next generation of JBL Charge 4. It is a small and lightweight portable speaker that has a neutral sound profile and is suitable for listening to a number of audio content. The speaker will deliver bold Original Pro sound through the customized long-excursion driver, separate tweeter and dual pumping bass radiators. Additionally, it has IP67 waterproof and dustproof. Thanks to Party boost, you will connect multiple JBL Party boost enabled speakers to get a satisfactory sound. The speaker also has up to 20 hours of playtime.

DESIGN 

JBL Charge 5 comes with a very similar design as that of JBL Charge 4. However, its main difference comes on the Logo which is much bigger and slightly different. It is able to sit horizontally while the power, Bluetooth and battery indicator lights turn on when the speaker is on. Additionally, the speaker comes in 8 different colour variants that one can choose from.

It comes with a premium feel that extends to the materials. The speaker goes with the soft-touch fabric which extends around it. This is with the exception of the ends and feet slats that have been coated in a rubbery material. This is also while holding through to the branding found on both ends of the tube-like design. The rubber feet on the flattened bottom panel keep the speaker from rolling around on a flat surface. Placed on the top panel are controls for power, Bluetooth pairing, volume and play/pause which can be tapped twice to skip forward. There is also a button for Party Boost. The rear panel has a covered USB-A port that is included for charging mobile devices from the speaker’s battery. Alongside it is an uncovered USB-C port for charging the speaker itself.

SOUND

You will be able to take the amazing power of JBL Pro sound with you as JBL Charge 5 comes with an optimized long-excursion driver, a separate tweeter and dual JBL bass radiators. Through this, you will be able to attain impressively rich and clear audio. Its response accuracy is right and it has a fairly neutral sound profile that is suitable for a wide range of content. It comes with a middling soundstage performance and decent directivity. Its dynamics are also adequate.

BATTERY

Similar to JBL Charge 4, this speaker comes with a 7500mAh battery and takes up to 4 hours to charge. The best feature on the battery front for the speaker is its battery gauge. Rather than using the LEDs, it uses a light bar that is placed below the branding on the front of the speaker. This, therefore, means a low battery.

IP67 WATERPROOF DESIGN

Create a pool party in a matter of seconds by simply carrying along with your JBL Charge 5.  You will not have to worry about water interfering with your speakers in case of accidents as the model is IP67 waterproof. It will last for up to three feet deep and will ensure you get fearless outdoor entertainment.

PERFORMANCE

Similarly to JBL Charge 4,  JBL Charge 5 is much more balanced. The highs and mids are great allowing vocals to come through as loud and clear. For a small speaker, JBL Charge 5 is impressively loud and can easily fill a medium-sized room. The speaker is extremely loud for noisy environments and comes with an IPX rating for protection. It can last 20 hours on a single charge

The JBL Charge 5 also gets impressively loud. For a medium-sized room, playing music at half volume is more than enough to fill the space with sound. At max volume, the speaker is extremely loud for indoor use but the extra volume is appreciated in noisy environments like at the beach. Speaking of the beach, the speaker is IP67 rated so feel free to dunk it or get it dusty.

BUILT-IN POWER BANK

Similarly to JBL Boom box 2, JBL Charge 5 also comes with a built-in power bank. This will allow you to easily charge without stopping the music because of a power surge.

PARTYBOOST

The party boost feature was first seen in JBL Boom box 2 and is now found in JBL Charge 5. The feature allows you to crank up the fun by pairing 2 JBL Party boost, compatible speakers. 

CONNECTIVITY

Bluetooth connectivity will allow you to connect your devices and enjoy the awesome sound. You will also be able to stream through youtube without experiencing lags in sound production. Other connectivity options include a 3.5mm audio cable input and USB port.
