I have the go 3 and honestly... You could absolutely fill a large room with it if there isn't tons of noise. It gets mind bogglingly loud and sounds great. I have the JBL charge 5 as well but I find myself using the go 3 whenever I'm not at home because it's just so portable and doesn't sacrifice in volume or quality much at all

I purchased this 2 months ago and I really have to say that JBL Go 3 is a winner. The engineers at JBL are amongst the best in the audio world. As an avid JBL user on the Pro level with their reference monitors as far as I can remember going back to the JBL Control micros to the present models they are amongst the best I've ever heard And these little speakers are incredible in terms of Bass response ,clarity and sound quality. Get em while you can ..

@Gingerlion777 Жыл бұрын

For budget audio i have to agree with you. The small speakers have incredible sound for how small they are. Other than that.. they are definitely not even in the top 20 audio companies.. as a guy who works with sound every single day, i could give you a thousand reasons why they are not the best.. but to keep it short.. very bad soundstage.. cheap drivers.. incredibly bad headphones.. all that is oke if you talk about a 35 bucks or even a 70 80 bucks speaker.. and quite impressive for the 35 bucks speaker! But the rest of their products is absolutely not worth your money! And can’t even hold hands with Sony Bose Herman etc etc etc.

I'm really surprised no one is seeing the biggest con on the clip 4. The power button is on the side and it constantly turns on and off when in a backpack or pocket or luggage. It would have been ideal to have it above beside the clip so it can prevent from turning on/off 🤷‍♂️

I’m totall my with you. 80+% of the time I will have a speaker setting on something; the clip aspect of the Clip is not a feature I would use very often. I am going with the…wait for it…GO 3 because the speaker is a better fit for most of my use(s). I can always buy a $2 carabiner for it if I need to really want or need to clip it to something. I saw another review where reviewer measured the battery life of the GO 3 at 10+ hours and the Clip 4 at nearly 20, at 60-70% volume. Good enough for me! JBL is really killing it in the portable Bluetooth speaker offerings.
