Purchased this around a month ago and l am loving it it's a great design very well built great sound from the subwoofer midrange and tweeters with a very impressive 80W output
Bass from this jbl speaker is really good when the volume is low medium, but very loud with almost no bass. I charge the thing at least less than a week.
It's a great sound system fills the whole room. We use it for a dance class and some social events. It's heavy and not somthing you want to carry far 6.7kg The only issue is the app it would be nice to be able to turn the levels up and down a bit more as in small rooms the base is to much. Also the app keeps opening over the top of other apps even when it's already connected and keeps trying to connect but that's an app issue
So Happy to See that Speaker made it safe.. It's the Best speaker ever created..%231😊
the sound is extremely good and super loud, it was definitely a great purchase, I highly recommend it
Great sound, capabilities and quality compared to its other predecessors. Keep in mind yes it is a heavier speaker which many would not like as it doesn't really seem as portable as one would want . That said , it is a boombox and has that type of feel so that is a win . This specific version has the Bluetooth and party mode and more cable inputs then the newer models which still makes this a favorite. Use of this speaker is very cut and dry so even the less tech savvy can use it . Price point is still high but Walmart's price is much more competitive than those others out there which is why Walmart is a choice when purchasing for many... the day Walmart starts overpricing it's items is the day that they will fail like those other big box stores back in the day.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have several JBL Charge Speakers which pack an awesome sound among other great features. The JBL Boombox 3 is another level. Right off the bat, I'll say it's a five-star product hands-down. Here's why: I have been putting this thing to the test and have been pretty amazed with the sound, durability, and battery life. It is relatively big and a bit heavy. However, it reminds me of the old days when carrying a boombox over your shoulder was a routine thing. This is certainly better than that experience and packs a sound that literally blows me away. It is very easy to setup and the Bluetooth stays connected with great range. Here's more detail on why I give it five stars and would give it more if I could: Sound. Amazing! I first started using it inside the house. I felt like a teenager again. Imagine a grown man, running around and chasing the kids with it, blasting my choice of 80's music. Yes, I did that! The sound is incredible and will shake the house if you crank it up. Otherwise, playing it at a low-level volume is great too with rich sound delivered by its three-way speaker system made up of a powerful subwoofer and two tweeters. Then something else happened. I took it outside. Let me tell you, this thing rocked the neighborhood. It was throwing sound all over the place and sounded like I had speakers mounted everywhere. Oddly enough it felt like it performed even better outside. We linked it up with our other JBL's via “Party Boost” and had sound in and out of the house. It is perfect for parties or just playing music for day to day living. No need to run any wires or mount speakers anywhere for immersive sound throughout the home! Durability. Rugged! Like other JBL products, the Boombox 3 is solid. Although it is somewhat heavy, the handle feels very strong and it's easy to move around. The charging port is a solid two-prong AC plug and the protective covering is thick with a good seal. Take it to the beach, get it wet, whatever, this thing feels like it is made to last. Battery life. Long! I did not run it straight until it died. However, I ran it pretty hard, charged my phone, and it lasted several days. The specs call for 24 hours of run-time depending on volume and usage and I have to say that is accurate. To buy or not to buy? Yes, I highly recommend the JBL Boombox 3. The Boombox 3 is amazing on many levels. Sure, it doesn't have the same vintage look and feel as the old school boombox. However, it is very sleek and much easier to throw over the shoulder. Realistically, I'm not planning on doing that very often but at least I know I can! I will however move it around a lot which will not be a problem. The Boombox 3 really is multipurpose sound system. It's more than just a portable speaker as it comes packed with features beyond insane sound and battery life including Party Boost, a charging bank, and the JBL Portable App integration that allows you to adjust the EQ, update the firmware, and easily link other devices through Party Boost. If you want a serious portable speaker that performs like a home theatre, you should definitely consider the JBL Boombox 3!
Very disappointed that this product isn't compatible with Connect+ and that JBL has decided to force users to buy newer portable speakers for software compatibility. JBL could easily allow their slightly older speakers to be compatible (i.e.,, my JBL charge 3). They clearly market compatibility for up to 100 speakers together, a great talking point, but I feel tricked. I own 5 JBL products (boombox, charge 3, 500watt sound system and 2 pairs of wireless headphones). I wont be buying another JBL until they fix this. Extremely disappointed.
Bought one yesterday brand new, it won't stay on, it keeps shutting itself down unless it's plugged into mains power even though the battery is charged. Extremely disappointing for such an expensive product, I'm taking it back to the retailer tomorrow and asking for a refund
it dont work, and it look use
