JBL Clip 3 Portable Bluetooth Waterproof Speaker - Sand

Got one to hang on the mirror of my motorcycle. Unfortunately it wasn't loud enough at highway speeds (decent in town though). The front clip fell off first time it hit the ground, easy glue gun fix. Yet that isn't what inspired this 5 star. The sound is great, as a true clear speaker of high quality should, the fact that it stayed outside (without the face cover) all winter (Ontario, Canada). Found just today (full spring thaw, maybe) thought no way it would work... But it blasted as the day I pulled it out of the box! Great product!

I designed a custom CLIP 3 and CLIP 5 with my company logo to give aways as prizes. Now I want to keep them . . . They look and sound amazing! My favorite feature on the CLIP 3 is that it acts as a phone receiver when I'm working out so I don't have to go for my phone. I'm in LOVE !

I recently bought this to use in a vehicle that has no Bluetooth capabilities, so my intention was to use it for music streaming and map/street-type navigation apps audio. It does the job perfectly for both! I charged it fully out of the box. It took roughly 2.5 hours, and four days later I am still at 70%. (Great battery life and I only had the volume at 50%). Also, I found that my iPhone displays the battery life. I have not fully explored speaker phone function to comment to those needing this, but I do find the sound to be slightly less “perfect” than my music and navigation audio. Overall, I am extremely pleased with my decision to buy the Clip3 versus the other Bluetooth speakers I was looking at, including others made by JBL. It's small, yet sturdy. It has very full sound even though I had read there are no bass controls. You can stream music indoors, outdoors, and in your vehicle flawlessly. This is a big device at a reasonable price.

Got this one 7 years ago as bthday gift. Still alive, working great. Survived alot of things, as mud, dropping from 5 meters on asphalt. Still enjoying it, and makes me happy.

I just had to get one personalized with my dog Vada's picture on it, I'm very impressed on how it came out! Sounds awesome also! I always use it when I take her for walks! It definitely seems to sound better than the clip2!

Great quality! Amazing sound! Fast shipping! Best!

Review of JBL Clip 3 speaker If there is one word to describe this upgraded micro speaker, it would be brilliant. Brilliant in the sense of being well designed to increase volume, the battery life of the speaker, and brilliant terms of the sound quality. I am a food delivery courier and use this speaker on my bicycle on average six hours per day. It is crucial that speaker that I attach to my backpack can cut through road noise when producing audio directions, music and spoken word. This upgrade succeeds on all fronts. It is noticeably louder than the Clip 2 and, in addition to loudness, there is a brilliance (brightness) level which I can clearly detect depending on the quality of the source material. four instance, I have compared the sound quality, at their best available bit rates, of Amazon Prime Music and Tidal Hifi. The speaker demonstrated the poor quality of the Amazon audio output; it sounds muddy and without any real dynamic range from between or within tracks. On Tidal, the brilliance of voice and bass overtones comes through in a striking way, I would call it really good. For instance, in GQ's Disco Nights (Rock Freak), the opening base line had a real head-turning pinch as I rode in heavy traffic by London's Liverpool St. Station. In fact, I would say it sounds better than the UE Boom 2 in both the tightness of the baseline and the brilliance of overturns and treble sounds. I also note that listening to spoken word is much clearer, in noisy traffic. This is an ideal set-up+ for a dedicated Radio 4 listener using iPlayer. The only minor complaint I would have, and it's not really very major, is that telephone calls are not quite as loud as they seem to be on the Clip 2. Nevertheless the phone over Bluetooth solution seems to cut through traffic noise and I can use it comfortably when speaking with people on fixed lines and also on various mobile and hands-free devices. I never have anyone telling me that they can't hear or understand what I'm saying, unless there is a poor mobile connection.

I bought this a week ago and I'm not extremely happy with it. Whenever I'm connected to the speaker but am not playing any audio. There is a humming fuzzy sound that comes from the speaker. Also since mine was personalized the picture on the speaker already has some “chips” or missing paint and I haven't dropped the speaker or anything. I'm not sure if I want to return the Clip 3 or not. I'm also disappointed that this model does not have the JBL connect feature, as I can't connect it to the app and can't link to other speakers.

I got this as a present for Christmas and it did not work at all!! Every time I tried to connect it to my phone via Bluetooth it kept turning off. I eventually plugged it in with the wire and started to charge it for half an hour and then tried it again and it did the same thing!! Absolute terrible product if i could I would have given it no stars !!

The front cover of the speaker fell off while in use.
