I bought this speaker to listen to at work. I am in the Plumbing field so I knew it would take quite a beating. I use it at work almost everyday. It is lightweight and fits anywhere. I usually clip it to my belt loop and walk around working. The loudness is spot on. I rarely have to charge it. (once every week) I use it for around 5 hours per day. One thing on every speaker that sucks is the microphone. I wouldn’t use it for anything. I have used this speaker sailing, working, hiking. Pretty much anywhere you can think of. Would definitively buy again.

Has decent bass for a speaker of this size but missing some of the highs I feel. Clip seems study, same for overall build quality.

This little speaker goes with me everywhere. It’s small enough to fit in my purse or backpack. The sound is exceptionally good for how small it is. The blue tooth connectivity is flawless. And it’s water proof! I love using it all the time, everyday and everywhere. It’s my new best little friend. And although I have three other blue tooth speakers (one an Aiwa boombox, the other a Sony and a Boss small box speaker) I use this JBL more than my other ones. It’s just so portable.

For years, I would carry a large portable radio to the Volleyball Court on the beach. It was heavy and took up a lot of room. Last year, I switched to a small bluetooth speaker, but it didn’t have the power I needed, and the battery crapped out after about two hours. THIS year, I bought the Clip 3, with 1000 mAh, and had it cranked on high for over three hours. Great sound out of such a small package and it clips right to the bottom of the net or a beach umbrella. I couldn’t be more pleased.

Love the speaker. Sounds great and is incredibly portable. Waterproof aspects held up to the test on my paddle board at the lake. Very happy with it.

I bought this speaker to have in my bathroom so I can listen to music, podcasts, and youtube videos while I take showers. It does the job perfectly. The sound is loud enough to fill the entire bathroom and the quality is surprisingly clear. It does not sound tinny and distorted even on the higher volumes. The waterproofing is also very good as I have used this speaker for a few months in the shower without incident. The Bluetooth connection is easy to set up and it has never cut out on me once! The build quality is superb and it is surprisingly heavy for its size. There are no loose or wobbly bits and the construction is solid. The battery life is really good for what i use it for. I normally shower between 15 to 30 minutes and I only have to charge the battery once a week and a half. the battery takes around an hour to fully charge on a non quick charger. The only complaint I have is that the loop clip is not as big as I wanted it to be. Originally I wanted to mount it to the shower rod but its not as a big (see picture for reference). I finally managed to fit it on my shampoo holder and its been working out ever since.

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: 9/102. Volume: 7/103. Portability: 10/104. 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: 10/106. 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)

Sound quality was surprisingly good. I bought this to use in the operating room since it’s portable and lightweight enough. I haven’t tested the battery life to its limit though but it is good enough for a 3-hour non-stop play. I would’ve preferred a dark green color but this shade is as close as I could get. A little tweak maybe on the design of the USB port, I wish the cover of the port can twist while being charged so that the plug is not in the way. I have this feeling that after heavy use it would eventually break the silicone/plastic cover. Overall highly recommended for the sound quality, portability and price.

Sounds good and battery lasts long enough for me. Super portable, I can hook it to a belt loop and walk with it. Bass is acceptable considering it’s low power consumption. Outdoors it’s not great but inside it’s great and a great shower speaker if you can find a place to hook it.

Your browser does not support HTML5 video. I just purchased this a few days ago (10.31.2020) through the limited deal option for ~40% off (-$30). And I’m blown away by the quality of this little speaker. I originally wanted this waterproof speaker mainly for my shower and bike rides. I’ve purchased a few other cheap Bluetooth speakers on Amazon (around $25-$35 range) and honestly, this is the one to get – whether or not it is on a limited deal!Love how easy it is to set up and pair, no secondary app needed. The buttons are easy to find, press/interact with, and the speaker itself feels solid and well constructed. It can get loud enough to and experience very minimal bass distortion at the very loudest setting (when you’re next to it, further away you can’t hear the bass distortion) I put it in the furthest corner away in my small bedroom, walked away across to the living and to the kitchen and I could still make out most of the tune and lyrics. That’s how loud and reliable the audio and connection were.Lastly, I included a video to go over some other features that are nice-to-haves with iOS compatibility but wasn’t expecting them. I’m using an iPhone 12 pro running iOS 14 and the battery widget picked up the speaker and showed me how much power was remaining. Additionally, when I was searching for an inexpensive Bluetooth waterproof speaker, I was hoping for the capability of controlling Siri, and wasn’t clear from other reviews or JBL if it had that capability. Sometimes you want to request a song when you’re in the shower, rather than relying on a specific playlist (I know, first world problems.) Needless to say, I was delighted to see that when you long-press the play button, Siri works!I feel spoiled.
