How many times does the DVD logo hit the corner? Correct answer wins a JBL 'Pretty Great' 3

"I bought this with my own money, because JBL didn't recognize my status as an e-beggar"

When you realise that the DVD LOGO is touching the corner every time.

I use the bottle opener on it frequently and never struggled like you did 😂

the xtreme 3 charges in an hour less than the 2 so theres an improvement there. i also think 15 hours of battery life is very solid you could go 4 5 days without a charge

that new jbl logo is really good IMO

Bought it the other day the xtreame 3 its amazing and the rubber strips are great and the curve is perfectly stable actually makes a difference directing the sound towards the room and not a dead spot to the roof! Definitely recommend I'm a Sony guy only went for jbl on a whim because of a new sony speaker out box was locked in a firmware or software restart boot loop totally frozen up unable to perfect a factory reset etc first time ever seen it but it was the Google assist WiFi one! stay with Normal Bluetooth less agro n reliable!

Just got a brand new Xtreme 2 for US$142, so I'm pretty happy with it.

Hi, so what would be your best five choices in around the same price range as the JBL ex 2 and ex 3 please?

Me sorprendió la edición del video, sos un genio para editar. 🙌🏻

Great review! 👍🏼 I bought the Xtreme 2 for $200 ... So I’m ok with my 2. The 3 is a lot more stylish tho’.

I love your head-to-head comparison segment! What Bluetooth speaker would you recommend for long-term outdoor/hiking/travel/etc.? I really appreciate sound quality and battery life

Awesome video and on the money. I've bought this and the Ultimate Ears Hyperboom, two speakers with very different sound signatures. Have you had a chance to check that out? What did you make of it?

I have a Charge 5 (the extreme 3's little brother) I find the biggest takeaway is lack of the aux port meaning I cant wire it to my phone or other device for playing games since using Bluetooth without at least aptx built in the latency is way to high however I know usb audio is possible on the device and with the ability to push firmware updates I know my chance is next to 0% but I just hope someone at JBL sees one of my comments and adds a Toggle in there app for audio over usb!

Imo the soundcore boom + is the best at 1/3 the price or the rave neo at 1/3 the price. Btw thanks for the video! Bruh those JBL people don't like you. Don't worry though I like you ,😄 you make great videos ❤️

I counted 60 times the DVD hit the corner with the intro.....love you vids tho.....sorry for my late response and if I don’t win its ok but what speaker should I buy for my sister the Extreme 2 or 3? :D (best tech reviewer tbh) o gosh I hope i win will save me my only $300 if I am lucky ;)

Luckily those little improvements are close to exactly what I wanted in the new model. Definitely not worth 350, they need to dial it back to 300 or lower!

Great review!

Uh, the point of it having a 15 hour battery life is so you don’t have to carry the brick around. I also think that the 3 sounds far more flat and strenuous on the ears compared to the more well rounded 2.

My favorite upgrade the metal passive radiators again and the new jbl logo and the MUCH MUCH lighter weight it makes the xtreme 2 feel like a builder

Could you try Srhythm NC 35 pretty good budget anc headphones. Not as good as soundcore q30. Though things look awesome. In your opinion what are best headphones anc or not?

the 1.8 firmware update for the soundcore q30 have improved the mic quality just to let you know if you didnt already know

Hello, in terms of sound quality, do you recommend the xtreme 3 or the party box 100. I know that one is more powerful than the other, but I would like to know which one has better definition or in which one I can better listen to my songs. (without taking into account the price, the difference in power and the size)

The JBL Xtreme 3 is very good. I got mine free through a new phone contract. Good bass and clear sound, but like all small speakers, it could always be louder. Comparisons are pointless. No one's going to play anything side by side at the point of sale nowadays. The price varies but it's usually £270 -£280. You can't buy anything with "dollars" in the UK.

When you said that you can’t compensate for the loss of bass at high volumes there is a actually an equaliser in the app, you just need to update the speakers firmware to get it to show up

Which is better xb43 or x3??fortget about the price sir.

The Xtreme 2 improves when AC adapter is plugged in. I don't see that happening with the Xtreme 3 on USB-C.

Amazing review! How about considering more budget-friendly alternatives to JBL? I've been looking at the Treblab HD Max speaker for a long time. Outwardly, they are almost the same. But is the sound quality much different?

The best speaker I have ever owned, and never ever noticed any distortion is Sonos play5... Nothing compares.

The xtreme 2 is dust n dirt n shock proof. Trust me with that I got 6 of em. And I use one of em at work on our dairy farm and it's been through alot lol. In mud , water , it's had raw cow milk dumped on it a few times. It's fell into alot of dust from feed its rolled off the top of the farm truck ect.. and it still looks amazing and sounds amazing no problem. Same with the charge 4s and my flips and my 3 boomboxs I got one original boombox gen 1 and two boombox 2s all of em are tough.. I collect em I got tons of jbl speakers from the originals to the new generation. My personal favorites are the xtreme 2 series the charge 5 flip 5s and flip 6s are good. The boom box 2 is amazing. Hell of em are good tbh. N as the xtreme 2 and xtreme 3 honestly I like the sound stage of the xtreme 2 over the 3rd generation xtreme. The look of the xtreme 3 I like better but honestly the xtreme 2 just sounds better. It's drivers are more beefy but that really don't mean much considering the xtreme 3 now has neo motor woofers which Honestly are more efficient.. and also not all the xtreme 2s sound the same either.... the GT xtreme 2 is the best one for bass... it gets lower n deeper than the PL version of the xtreme 2.. and it gets deeper n hits harder than the xtreme 3.. it's got better woofers than the others. Which is nice the GT is the rarest xtreme 2 there is iv only seen 2 in my entire life and I got two GT models and a few PLs and both the gt models hit harder. So it honestly depends on which version of the xtreme 2 you have...

its called the xtreme because its built to be taken to the "xtremes" btw like the outdoors. jbl marketing speak of course. if it was named xtreme because of the sound then the boombox would be called the xtreme

So obviously I'm very late to the party, but for those that have it, I'm a mechanic and need a good speaker that is loud enough to actually hear when working in an environment where there 2-3 trucks running, pneumatic tools working, ect. Is this worth getting for that over the 2 or would it be worth just getting the 2 cheaper and faster? I loved the original xtreme and ended up kinda running it into the ground just by use so there's that factor too.

Pls can anyone help me? I have a problem with my jbl xtreme 3 GG version, the buttons are not working only start up button works. I can press the buttons but they are not reacting. I already tried restarting and factory restarting nothing works bcs the buttons won t work. Also i can t turn off the speaker i can only turn it on and conect to my phone. I can only turn off my speaker by pressing start up button 8times times and hold it for 10 secs. The speaker plays music and videos normally without problems. PLS I NEED HELP

how can i turn on the bass in jbl xtreme 3.i feel it have very weak bass

which is better option for price?

Price dropped about 40% and it does sound better than everything below it in price. I'm more about sound quality so it's worth it.

What bloetooth speaker wold you recomend that has bruttal bass? Sry for bad english😂🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷

$ 300 is a lot of money, not that much money. I have a Dockin D Fine Plus speaker, it was $ 125 on Black Friday with delivery from a German Amazon. There are also much better deals on the market, such as the Anker Motion Boom.

Would love to see a comparison video of the jbl xtreme 3 and the soundcore motion + 🤞😁

Have you do a video for the speaker from zealot?

I am listening to this video with xtreme 3

Mark reminds me of an Oxford physics professor that told our class up front he does not believe in the curve, and not to expect a Distinction (A) grade.

If you do the party boost thing with a speaker that isn’t connected to your phone as a Bluetooth device does that mean it wouldn’t do the party boost thing to the JBL speaker that is connected to your phone as a Bluetooth device

Could compare this to the iLoud 40W?

liked the review and the was so helpful to change my mind from xtreme 2 to xtreme 3

Well, JBL sold 1 Million charge 4, and that s one million speakers who can t be connected to the xtrem 3. There is no reason bluetooth speakers from the same brand won t work together... expept hungry marketing...

Considering I got my Xtreme 2 for $160 new, I’m fine with it at that price point.

JBL made an update on the Charge 3 to adapt to connect plus... there is no reason to do the same with the charge 4 and party boost... the reality is that bluetooth speakers should just pair, the rest is ugly marketing. shame on JBL on this one, punishing the JBL lovers for upgrading... you can still connect it with dual connection on Samsung S20 or multi connection on your computer, thank you JBL for making it so complicate und unecological... what a waste, but there is a bolltle opener for you to drink and forget that. thank you for your very good review...

plz review the much better value for money, the soundcore rave neo 🙏🏻

I heard you can adjust the bass on the JBL app with this new Extreme 3. Hopefully that helps? Has anyone tried it? And dose it improve the bass?

Hey bro, can u show firmware of x3 in the jbl connect for me pls

JBL's app just added a three band graphic equalizer.

I love my xtreme 3 returned my xtreme 2 which I got for $150 got the xtreme 3 on sale for $315 on Jbl Black Friday website

got the original boombox for 299 total off Amazon im satisfied 😆

How can you not know how to use a beer opener?

The bold branding of the extreme 3 makes you think the sound is way more superior in volume then it really is...

Where can I buy the extreme 3? Can’t find one anywhere

They know damn well who they're marketing to with that bottle opener 😭😭

I don't have the Xtreme 3, I opted to save $150 and get the Xtreme 2 instead. I plan on replacing it with a Boombox 3 as soon as they go on sale, I know JBL is going to replace it any day now, but I digress, the price wasn't the only reason I picked up the Xtreme 2. I like its overall design and symmetry better, like how you can stand it upright and have it stand straight up, versus the lopsided vertical speaker you get with the Xtreme 3. Also, the fact that the 2 charges via AC was a positive for me. I work in a factory and the outlets are quite old, a lot of USB chargers, specifically newer ones that are faster, do not work properly on the outlets for some reason and charge whatever you plug into it at a much slower rate than it should. AC adapters are old enough that they work fine, so the adapter that comes with the Xtreme 2 keeps it charged up for the entire 8-hour shift without dipping, whereas I have co-workers who have the Xtreme 3 who also complain about the thing dying 5 hours into the shift with the thing at 70%, despite them having it plugged in. That issue may only apply to me, but it was definitely a factor. I know the Xtreme 3 receives a power boost when plugged in, much like the Xtreme 2, but the charger that comes with it is apparently a charger that is no good at the 37-year-old factory I work at, I'm just going by what other people have told me, I usually do not buy an electronic product without asking around or watching many reviews on it. If you can get the Xtreme 3 for $250 or less, it is definitely the better buy because it has a better overall sound range, plus the wider Bluetooth compatibility and the USB-C convenience. Even with the Xtreme 2 at $200 right now, it would be worth the extra $50 to get the 3. If you are paying a single penny more than that, however, you are definitely better off getting the 2. The Xtreme 2 is still a phenomenally excellent speaker and is currently 100% the best option for a Bluetooth speaker that is $200 or less, WITHOUT QUESTION. The Xtreme 3 is definitely not worth it's asking price and you are better waiting until it is on sale.

Can u pls review about tribit stormbox pro

You used the beer opener upside down.

Listen you are not weak the charging mains adapter is light It's not heavy I have both of them the JBL 2 Is my favourite because of the weight It on the heavy side the Jbl 3 is ok just to light For me. But I downloaded the eq app So I can improve on the sound on both of them Get more bass and midrange and treble. Nice video like it but for Me I prefer the JBL 2.

JBL Xtreme 2 for me. It has more balanced sound. And sounds better at higher volumes. Not so much bass roll off/compression/skreaky/screaming sound. And has red colour. Red. 🤩 JBL didn't make a red Xtreme 3??? Bluetooth is 4.2 on Xtreme 2, but Bluetooth is backwards compatible so it doesn't matter so much. Bluetooth 5, 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 works with 4, 4.1 and 4.2. 😁 But which strap is better? JBL Xtreme 2 or 3? Because is want the best strap. With a bottle opener. And JBL Xtreme 2 is also cheaper. 150€. Not some 350€???

Love from India 😍

Compare with sony srs xb43

JBL Xtreme 3 vs JBL Charge 4 please

I have never, ever, seen someone using a bottle opener with such poor skills. And not using it because you fear scratches will occur is properly idiotic. Why would it matter if the buckle is scratched?

Ordered an extreme 3 for 182 euro today :)

I just got my JBL XTREME 2 at $166.45 massive sale from our local mall (SM APPLIANCE Philippines).And damn thia is my 1st JBL product and I loved it so much. I hope I can get the JBL go 3 also cuz JBL put it as a freebie when you register it on their site. Products are JBL flip 5,Charge 4 Xtreme 2, Boombox and party box 100 start's at December 1 up to December 31.

I still dig Xtreme 2 lol I feel like the 3 sounds way more tinny

you used the bottle opener wrong 😂

First time opening a beer 🍺 wtf 🤯🤯🤯😂

i got extreme 123!!!! i got both 2 and 3 for sale keep my 1 for now. jbl just got overpriced!! so many better speakers out for less and louder! w king, soundcore, ect. i used to be hardcore jbl for years.but then again? i work with some bigger jbl systems in big arenas! since harmon/kardon got involved? just overdone with jbl marketing. but i do like the jbl partyline series! great review!

Note never buy anything because aventualy there will always be a updated version in the future 🤔

I just bought it for 225€ Its good

Can you connect two jbl extreme 2 together

Review the Treblab HD Max.

someone else did some testing, and the jbl 3 is not too good at media consumption because of the audio lacking behind the actual video. the low bass is almost non existent, and the battery life is actually worse. it does charge faster, but would make sense since it apparently runs down faster than the 2. the connection distance is also worse. the only improvement is the eq, and the ip67 certification. other than that in my opinion it really isn't worth the price bump. and for specific music the tuning done by haarman makes the speaker in most scenarios sound worse than the 2. but there is an eq so it can be slightly fixed. thats about it

U used the bottle opener the wrong side…

I'm getting the jbl charge 6 in 2023 or 2024 or in getting a speaker in 2022 for $100

Bottle opener upside down 🤦‍♂️

bass: xtreme 2 mid: xtreme 3 treble: xtreme 3 final volume/peak: xtreme 3. db/spl/peak: xtreme 3 (105.3db) xtreme 2: (101.9db)

how did you miss aux input ... not a very detail oriented review

Its a jbl. Considering its serviceability it'll last forever if taken care of. Another reason for the price premium.

Just bought one yesterday and my first impressions after playing my "test track" was I was not impressed. The deep bass is totally lacking to the point where it makes the rest of the audio sound ultra loud and clear and bassless. For the money I spent ($420 after $40 rebate and $90 insurance) it doesn't seem worth it if the best parts of my music is missing and the rest sounds way too clean compared to the rest of the audio. It sure doesn't bump like other JBL products. Going to return it to the store and pick up something else. All in all not really worth the money in my opinion if it lacks low end to a point where it affects how the rest of the track sounds.

Power, 50w?

Bought mine for 230 dollars.. so its very nice for its price

Jbl 3 versus W king

Wait what , is that a joke for the chat XDD Nice video

Are you from the states or Europe?

0:36 see the DVD hit the corner

The EXTREME 2 which I have has more BASS and more pleasant to the ear..the better speaker

Beatlejuice- I things uhhhh I things uhhhh 68

Is that how you handle a bottle opener in usage?? 😂😂

Not worth the price though a fair price for the extremes should be like $250 or $200

Are we gonna ignore that it hit the corner at 0:46

You don't really open many beer bottles do ya, bro?

I would still would buy the boombox in my country for 300 euro and yes i got it for so low

I’ve owned all the xtremes the 3 definitely has the best sound quality but it very much lacking in the bass department it doesn’t thump that much harder then my charge 5😂 the quality of the audio though is verry good

The dvd logo is the only thing I cared about to bad it’s fake😭
