Buy a Charge 3

Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2019

Color: GrayVerified Purchase

The JBL Charge 4 has one giant flaw that frankly makes all other positives about it basically irrelevant to me. It's a mono speaker. Meaning other than the two bass woofers on the sides, there's only one speaker built in. It's not even in the center. Do yourself a favor and buy the Charge 3. It has stereo speakers instead of this mono garbage.

Mono, directional, no user EQ :(

Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2018

Verified Purchase

I held out buying one of these speakers because I waiting for the upgraded charge 4. I was disappointed and ultimately am now happy with my UE Megablast which wasn’t much more expensive.

The shortcomings: Mono, directional, no user EQ settings, Bluetooth lag. . I ultimately found that a stereo speaker with speakers on many sides and one with user EQ hit the spot for me. It also worked better for watching YouTube videos. This speaker will have a lag, some other models don’t. Don’t get me wrong, the speaker sounds good and gets good bass at low volumes, but I ended up not loving it for the reasons mentioned above. I believe there are much better options around the price point.

In depth review for jbl charge 4

Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2019

Color: GrayVerified Purchase

The JBL charge 4 is a great product. I found it to be initially disappointing due to the warm sound signature. I have found that the highs aren’t totally accurate but they’re close enough to not distract you from the music. The highs are present but definitely aren’t strong which adds to the warm signature. The mids are very good and exceptionally clear for the size of this device. Because of this, the vocals are great in most songs. They are well represented unless they sneak up on the high notes which is when you can hear a slight distortion from accuracy. However, the vocals which dip into lower range sound really good as the speaker does a great job not to put too much emphasis on the radiators making it sound bassy and unrealistic. If you listen to high quality hifi tracks you’ll be able to imagine the singer right in front of you because of the presence and sound stage. As for the mono speaker, don’t listen to the critics of this new implementation because most of them either don’t know what they’re talking about or they are just picking at it because they don’t like the thought of it. You’re not going to get stereo by using 2 speakers 3 inches apart like on the last model and as for separation, this mono speaker separates just fine if not better than the last model especially in mid to lows. The speaker gets plenty loud for the average person and it manages to maintain its dynamics all the way to just under full volume. I’ve compared this speaker to many others such as charge 3, xb30, xb31, xb20, extreme, onyx... and what I’ve found is that while the highs are a bit lacking in certain songs it certainly makes up for it in other departments. The bass is very good in the charge 4. The bass notes are represented accurately and it’s able to hit lower frequencies most portable speakers of this size can’t (20). However, it’s worth mentioning it’s still no sub. This speaker has trouble representing very low frequencies. The radiators start shaking instead of making music which for those of you who don’t know (this doesn’t sound very good). The battery life of this speaker wasn’t as advertised and I found I could only get 9 hours on 60 percent volume which isn’t bad but is a huge deviation from the claimed 20 hours. After using this speaker for awhile and comparing it to other speakers, I’ve actually grown fond of this unit and it’s become my beach toy. Don’t take any critics in this review too seriously as I doubt most people are 50% as critical as me when it comes to audio but this one gets my thumbs up. Future improvements would definitely require a tweeter and possibly a bigger battery.

Incredible BT speaker!

Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2018

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

This JBL Charge 4 is the most powerful portable speaker I have ever owned, for such a small speaker to pump out that much sound, it’s almost ridiculous. The bass is solid, it does not rock the house, but I definitely incredible for a portable speaker. That said the highs could be better but I don’t mind it much as this will be mainly used outdoors and garage as we have dedicated speakers inside the home. The ability to charge and play music from an external connected device is a great feature too, strong battery life as advertised (I have yet to drain a full charge yet).

I would also like to suggest a solid carrying case for the speaker as well https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JPXCJQ9 it holds the Charge 4 plus charging cables, it’s well made, solid outer shell, great price, must have to transport and store the Charge 4.

Great portable speaker!

Too bad JBL lower the sound quality on the charger 4 adding only 1 speaker to give a Sadly MONO sound unlike the charger 3 that have 2 speakers and to make it worst dont even bring a wall charger

Sounds great and has plenty of colume

Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2018

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I've been using a JBL Flip 2 for the past couple of years so I felt confident in the brand. The JBP Charge 4 is fantastic. It has a good, solid, durable feeling in the hand and the sound quality is great. The volume is fantastic. On my bike I run it at like 4 out of 10 and it's blasting. If you're looking for a studio speaker this isn't it, but if you're looking for something to take out on your bike, or on a picnic, or out in the woods, or in the workshop then this is it. It's a fantastic speaker and well worth the purchase.

Awesome Sound! We'll see how long it lasts!

Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2018

Color: RedVerified Purchase

Great build quality.
Great sound!
Does not automatically reconnect when you walk out of range and then back into range.
Battery indicator only shows you charge level when you first turn it on. After that, pause, play, or change tracks to display the battery level.
Sound profile automatically changes when you exceed a certain volume. Most people won't notice. But I'm sure it does this to protect itself.
Bass is plentiful.
The rest of the audio range can be tuned by your music app.
First impressions are great.
We'll see how long it lasts.
JBL app requires GPS location. They are data mining. Don't use the JBL app!

I bought this last week. The speaker sound quality & volume is good & I was happy with the purchase. I bought this after seeing on JBL website that the speaker has speakerphone support.

Plz note this speaker DOES NOT have speakerphone feature. The information on JBL website is wrong. I chatted with their tech support & they confirmed that they will remove this description from their website.

No siempre lo más nuevo es mejor...

Reviewed in Mexico on March 2, 2019

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

No escribo reseñas habitualmente, pero esta vez creo que es necesario, quizá hasta pueda hacer que alguno de ustedes no la compre...

Me explico:

He tenido una JBL Flip 4 durante los últimos 10 meses y he estado contento con ella, hasta hace un par de semanas en que decidí que era momento de otra bocina portátil: con buena calidad de sonido pero un poco más potente.

Me puse a investigar que modelos podrían servirme y la lista de bocinas en éste rango de precios parece interminable, por ejemplo: Bosé Soundlink Mini II, Beats Pill+, Sony XB31, Marshall Stockwell, etc. Acudí a las sucursales de Bestbuy y Costco de mi localidad para probar cada una de ellas. La que más me convenció de éstas fue la Bosé Soundlink Mini II, porque creo que está bastante equilibrada, pero aún siento que le falta potencia y está un poco inflada de precio.

Fue entonces cuando recordé que hace algún tiempo había tenido oportunidad de probar una JBL Charge 3 y me sorprendió bastante (de manera positiva). A final de cuentas la decisión quedó entre la Bosé Soundlink Mini II y la JBL Charge, opté por esta última.

Al llegar a la tienda de Bestbuy de mí localidad los modelos de Charge 3 habían sido descontinuados y liquidados hacia un par de meses y acababa de llegar el nuevo modelo: la JBL Charge 4. Desafortunadamente todavía no la tenían instalada para realizar una prueba de audio, pero en ese momento pensé: “si la otra ya era buena, esta debe ser mejor”!!!.

Me fijé en el precio... en Bestbuy cuesta cerca de 4000 pesos. Chequé el precio en Amazon y en ese momento estaba en 3199... ahora está en 2800 (parece una ganga, pero ojo, todavía no termino de explicar).... Antes de comprarla decidí ver diferentes opiniones de "expertos" (personas) que la habían probado antes en YouTube...

Llegue a casa y vi todas las reviews qué hay en YouTube sobre la Charge 4 (literalmente), así como las de un tal Clavinetjunkie (algo así) que me parece el menos sesgado y con una opinión más profesional, con menos marketing.

Para resumir: Todas las reviews de JBL Charge 4 exaltaban las bondades de esta bocina: es 10 W más potente, se carga con USB tipo C, que tiene más batería (7600 mAh), más tiempo las actualizaciones vía OTA, etc.

Sin embargo, si se fijan casi nadie la recomienda por encima de la Charge 3 por una razón: es Monoaural.

Todas esas reviews que les comento mencionan que el hecho de que la bocina sea monoaural no compromete la calidad del audio y que a final de cuentas el 90% de los usuarios estarán contentos con ella.

Entonces.... lo sé, la regué: Compré la bocina sin probarla previamente!!! la compré por Amazon por el costo (3199 pesos). Llegó, la recibí en el trabajo... un par de compañeros que la escucharon apenas salió de la caja estuvieron contentos con el sonido. Sin embargo a mí no me convencía... no sabía por qué.... pero en ese momento supe que soy parte del 10% restante.

Al llegar a casa y poner la música que consigue muy buenos efectos en modo estereo (ahora se me ocurre 99 red Balloons de Nena, What a Fool Believes, Shoot to thrill de AC/DC, etc) no conseguía encontrar los detalles del sonido. No me malinterpreten, la bocina consigue crear un buen “soundstage”, el bajo/medios/agudos me parecen equilibrados, a pesar de tener la preEQ de JBL, es solo que al interpretar todo a través de un solo canal de audio se pierden todos esos detalles que disfruto de la música... suena como el radio de la cocina de mi abuelita (lo notarán al compararla con otra en modo estéreo).

En fin...

Fue tanta mi decepción que decidí regresarla y comprar la JBL Charge 3 ó la Bosé Soundlink Mini II en su lugar. Por ahora no tengo conflicto con ninguna de éstas de pensar en cargarlas con un microUSB (a pesar de que el Galaxy S9 sólo tenga tipo C) o el tener una menor cantidad de batería, si con ello consigo el sonido que me gusta.

Creo que JBL trato de disminuir costos y obtener más ganancias en esta edición de Charge (esto se puede ver porque le quitaron hasta el micrófono, que podría ser de utilidad para tomar una llamada urgente si estas en una alberca, o lejos de tu teléfono).

Ojalá la Charge 5 mejore estos aspectos... no siempre lo más nuevo es mejor.

Espero te haya sido de utilidad.

Underwhelming

Reviewed in Canada on May 23, 2019

Color: YellowVerified Purchase

The charge 4 comes in at a larger size than its predecessor the charge 3, mainly due to the increased battery size.
The sound is tuned more towards the mid /highs and is lacking bass.
I've spent the last 3 days doing side by side comparisons with my charge 3, and my conclusion is while the charge 4 does have larger battery for charging your phone, the lack of bass and larger size make the charge 4 underwhelming. If you find the charge 3 on sale for $139 or under pick that up instead! It is still the gold standard!

Superb Battery, Awesome Sound Quality

Reviewed in Canada on August 8, 2019

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I was looking for a speaker with high volume and great sound quality to use in my house as the main speaker. My friend recommended me the Charge 3 but I wanted to go with Charge 4 and I am really happy with my decision. This speaker was everything I was looking for. It has great sound quality and it can get really loud. I have to keep the volume really down not to disturb my neighbors but even with low volume, the sound is crisp, clear and bass is really good. And the battery... That 7500 mAh is enough to power my speaker for a week with a single charge. Also, the ability to use the speaker as a powerbank is a nice little bonus. I totally recommend this product.

Really impressed with this speaker. I like the fact it can charge a phone as well and a full charged battery lasts a long time. I would suggest buying a zip case which can be found on Amazon. The Bluetooth range is very good. Great overall speaker. I’ve not been brave enough to get wet however and would only do this by accident.
