Nice quality for something we can carry around. I’ve experienced Beats Pills and even the Jambox and they were great but something about this speaker is special. I could hear parts of songs I’ve never picked up while listening on other devices so I think it’s really cool

Amazing speaker
Love this speaker. Connects easily every time, long charge time and anazing sound. Love the handle which makes it easy to carry around from room to room. Looking forward to trying it out this summer on the boat!

Great Sound, Weak Battery Life
I recently used the JBL Charge 6 Bluetooth speaker during both half marathons and the London Marathon, and overall I was very impressed with the product. The build quality feels excellent, it is durable, easy to carry, and the sound quality is outstanding even outdoors and in busy race environments. The volume and bass performance were particularly impressive during long runs. However, my main issue was with the battery life. When used at full volume for approximately 3 hours, the battery dropped from 100% to around 10%. During longer running events I had to use the speaker more sparingly to make sure I still had music later in the race. The marketing material states the speaker can provide “up to 24 hours on a standard charge, plus up to 4 extra hours using the Playtime Boost feature”, but in my experience this was not achievable under real-world usage conditions at higher volumes. Overall, the JBL Charge 6 is a fantastic sounding and well-built speaker, but the battery performance did not meet my expectations based on the advertised figures.

Please read this JBL 😭😓
I’m from Sri Lanka. I bought mine in September last year. And I had no issues with it at all. But after a month, when I plugged it into charge, always after around half an hour, it starts to beep. Like that warning beeping. But there were nothing there inside the charging port and in the cable. I have never put this into water. Even after a day, it did the same. I usually charge it like twice a month. And after 3 days of happening this, I switched my cable to a better cable. Even with that, same happened. The charger I was using was a Samsung 25W PD charger. Then I tried different cables, different chargers , different outlets even different houses. But it was the same. And then somewhere around October, it stopped beeping but it started charging very very slowly. So now it takes a full day to me to get it fully charged. To be exact, it takes around 10 minutes to charge 1% of the battery. The store I bought this refuses to let me claim my warranty. So I couldn’t do anything. I cannot give this to a local repair shop as most of them are not trustworthy. Because, last time I repaired my JBL headphones, after the repair, the sound was so muffled. Could you please help me with this JBL?

Make including charger cords mandatory again
Bought today and doesn’t include a charger cable, I don’t have a spare so I now have to go fork out more money after saving for a couple weeks to afford the speaker. Will be the last jbl product I ever buy.

Thank you for your inquiry on our JBL Charge 6. Our decision not to include a USB Type-C cable is because it is commonly available on most households and helps keep the price of the speaker friendly to our customers. With that in mind, we invite you to contact our customer support for further assistance regarding the charging cable.

Best speaker I’ve ever owned!!!
This is by far the best Bluetooth speaker I’ve ever owned! I’ve had a lot of different UE speakers that I thought were great until I got my hands on this beautiful purple Charge 6. Checks all the marks for a Bluetooth speaker. Durability? Check! Portability? Check! Well-made/designed? Check! Battery life? Check! And most importantly…sound quality? Check plus!! I’m absolutely in LOVE with this speaker I really am. I have no idea how JBL is gonna top this with the next addition to the “Charge” series but I can’t wait to find out lol

Perfect speaker for its size!
Excels in all departments for its size. Battery is brilliant, power is great for its size, durability is great although I’m going to be treating it well anyway. Volume is high with better bass at top end. Portability isn’t an issue at this size and realistically could be slightly bigger if needed a larger enclosure etc. Connectivity is great with the latest Bluetooth standard. And most importantly for me, the bass is more than adequate, although I hope in future we can push for better bass response from the charge series and if needed increasing the enclosure size slightly. Improvements to max volume bass roll off and lowest frequency response is welcomed in future.

Great product! Poor software support w/ pairing
Great product as usual JBL! You guys make great speakers! Unfortunately the downfall with these newer JBL products is the connectivity/sync function with older JBL speakers is nonexistent!!! Quite disappointing for a company that maintains a good reputation. If you don’t have 2 JBL speakers with the same sync protocol it seems like you’re out of luck, regardless if you update the firmware or download the app. I expected better from you JBL. To further explain my problem, I have a new charge 6 and I cannot sync it to play with my JBL Boombox 2. It seems it’s not possible whatsoever. Quite frustrating

Great upgrade for pool parties and summer fun!
I spent quite a bit of time researching portable speakers to use by the pool. I wanted to make sure it was loud enough for outside gatherings, wouldn't stop working if it got a little wet, and had great sound quality. This met and exceeded all my expectations! I had no trouble commecting it to my iPhone (which is several years old) and was playing music in no time. The kiddos love that the sides vibrate with the beat. The music is crisp and loud enough to be heard across my back yard -- which isn't huge but didn't happen with the lasy speaker I had. Highly recommend if you're in the market - and if you're reading this review, you probably are.

Battery does not last 28 hours. the speaker itself sounds amazing but very disappointing that it dies after about 6 hours.

The speaker is a great speaker but it is annoying when you would like to charge the speaker and you have a beeping sound. I have read about Salt detection and if the charger port is wet. The part about wet is not bad but the salt part we are on an island and around salt water with air. It had become a very annoying feature as the speak will not charge.

Powerhouse
Just received today from my sons for Mother’s Day. Excellent sound, love how powerful this small Bluetooth speaker makes it seem like you’re right in the middle of a concert. It’s amazing how loud it is. I highly recommend to anyone. I will use daily, on vacations, cookouts and much more!!

The best sound
I love it! The design is spot on and the sound is amazing The only thing thought I feel as the design can get scratched easily.
