Description

Easy to grab and easy to hold, the JBL Grip is the speaker that’s always within reach.

The JBL Grip is powerful for its size. JBL Grip may be compact, but its pro sound is big—punchy bass and crystal-clear highs. Whether it’s setting the vibe for mindful morning stretches or soundtracking lazy beach days, the JBL Grip is our go-to.

The built-in ambient light on the back panel adapts to the moment, so you can set the mood for chill date nights and spontaneous hangs. Use the convenient side-panel control button to switch between light themes, so the mood is always right whether you're winding down or turning up.

Did we mention it’s super tough? The JBL Grip is built to handle anything. With an industry-leading IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating, it goes wherever we do. Its drop-proof design means it can survive a hard fall onto concrete—no party fouls here.

All that, plus up to 14 hours of playtime with Playtime Boost. When friends roll through, we’re using Auracast™ to stereo pair two Grips for instant surround sound. Why stop there? We can connect as many JBL Auracast™-enabled speakers as we’ve got for an all-out sound experience.

Solo chillin’ or vibing with the crew—the JBL Grip is as flexible as we are.

Q: Does aura cast only apply to JBL speakers or any Bluetooth speaker

submitted by GZ20 - 1 month ago
  • A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Auracast on JBL speakers. Auracast is not limited to JBL, but it is not supported by all Bluetooth speakers either. Auracast is a new Bluetooth LE Audio feature It only works with devices that specifically support Auracast/Bluetooth LE Audio Many newer JBL speakers support it, which is why you see it associated with them It works with any brand that supports Auracast It will not work with standard Bluetooth speakers that don’t have that feature If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833‑848‑8324 every day, between 7am–11pm CST.

    Small but powerful

    I have always wanted this speaker, but didnt want to buy one because I kept telling myself I didn’t need it but once I had it, it was great. We use it everywhere. We use on the Golf Course. We use it for backyard. It’s small, but it’s powerful.

    Smaller then I expected but puts out some good sound. Its incredibly easy to use and the sound is strong for its size. IP68 rating is awesome. For the price range and size with all the features this is the best speaker on the market today.

    Small but mighty

    Compact, small enough to fit in a purse, but it does get loud! I was shocked it had good sound. Was going to return when I saw how small it was but the sound quality makes me keep it. Will be perfect for the beach and pool days. Easy to connect. Pls note it does not come with charger/cable but can charge with any usb-c cord

    Tinny sound quality

    The sound quality of the JBL Grip is very tinny. I've always been impressed with the sound quality of the 3 4 other JBL speakers that we own, so this was surprising. I'm returning it for a JBL Charge 4.

    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We understand that the JBL Grip did not meet your expectations, particularly when compared to the sound quality of the other JBL products you own. Please be assured that we will share your comments regarding the audio quality with our product development team for future product enhancement.

    The JLB Grip

    I love that it sounds great for such a small device ! I didn't like that for the money it doesn't come with a charging cord ! Which was another expense since it is. USB C . I feel it should at least come with a way to charge ! That is the only fault

    Loud & Powerful

    With a size of a 12oz can of energy drink, this little bluetooth speaker packs a serious PUNCH 👊🔊🎶🎵🎼 & without reading into the specs, I swear there's a subwoofer built-in - very loud & punchy bass, rattled the countertop I placed it on! At less than 50% volume, this beast can fill up a small bedroom & heck even a kitchen or living room! Its companion app is pretty intuitive & upon receipt when connected to my phone, it did prompt me to install a software update to the speaker. In the app, there are options for the light's color selections & strobing effects, or you can completely shut it off. Preset EQ selections are available in the app as well as an option to customize. There's a physical button to cycle through the light function in case you don't have your phone/app readily available. The size & shape is uber portable, fits right in my backpack's side pocket where water bottles & compact umbrellas go (see pic). Does not come with a usb-a to usb-c cable, just the speaker itself. This could very well be my go-to bluetooth speaker with a battery life advertised at +/-14 hours, easy to transport & brings the party!!!
