Excellent portable speaker if you want powerful music, especially for outdoor spaces. Note that the sound is directional (at the front) as there is no speaker at the back.
At 100% battery, it lasts for about 10-12 hours of operation, which is more than enough, for example, for a party.
Very nice product with very good sound and bass when you turn it up to the maximum the bass of course decreases but fortunately JBL has made sure to keep it strong and stable also has an equalizer from the JBL application which makes it have differences in sound. Simply the only negative is the price which is very overpriced
Excellent speaker with very clear sound especially after adjusting it through the app.
I had an issue with connecting the speaker to the app but after a factory reset that I found on youtube, it connected.
Suitable for outdoor parties because indoors it doesn't do it justice.
I will definitely buy a second one to listen in stereo.
Purchased for 300€
From bb1 to bb3, the 3 has a more premium build with better bass and a more balanced sound, impressions after a while. Edit: For 2 weeks I had both bb1 and bb3 simultaneously, now bb1 is enjoyed in Corfu by its new owner. As for the sound now, V shape is finally over, JBL finally remembered that there are midrange frequencies in the sound spectrum, resulting in bb3 sounding cleaner, warmer, more relaxed, its bass is lighter, lower than bb2 and quite lower than bb1 but not a crazy difference, especially with bb2 it is almost the same, in the highs it is the same as bb1 and better than bb2, bb1 sounds louder than bb2 due to the exaggerated highs, but bb2 sounds fuller with slightly better lows, bb3 is a completely different implementation in terms of speaker arrangement, with a woofer for the lows, 2 midrange, and 2 tweeters, JBL kept the good aspects of bb1 and bb2 and tuned it much better resulting in it sounding better and more powerful than its siblings. Appearance, it definitely looks fresher, more premium but also heavier than bb1 and bb2, the fact that it integrated the power supply is positive because we all have such a cable at home, but it is also negative because it adds weight and if it burns out, the speaker needs to be opened. Mounting base, here we laugh, JBL puts these little stripes to support a speaker that weighs almost 7 kg? If you look at the reviews of the Charge 5, there are complaints from owners that pieces come off the strips. Application, here JBL is working us, it's not possible JBL to ask for this money (some paid 500+ €) and not provide a 10-band EQ, no you haven't made the perfect speaker, you probably think you're Apple! Now if the transition from bb1-bb2 to bb3 is worth it, if you love music I will say yes, the midrange frequencies make the real difference, among the 3, in bb3 the voices sound in the right place and not in the background, now if you want it only for the beach and electronic music then bb1 as well as bb2 are fine. Oluv and Alan are good but the final judge is your ears. Off topic but I replaced the very good Flip Essential 1 (stereo) due to age not with Flip Essential 2 (mono) nor with Flip 6 (mono) nor with Charge 5 (mono) but with the little gem in the photo. I hope bb4 doesn't make it monophonic because I will wave a handkerchief at you.
Finally, after months (May 2024), they released the application so that the speaker doesn't turn off! I give it 5 stars again. The JBL BOOMBOX 3 is the best and most powerful speaker with crystal clear sound in its category. And at the price of €349.00 that I bought it, it's worth every penny at 100%
I bought it a few days ago for 420 and had a big party on the beach with this and the JBL Extreme 3 connected through PartyBoost. In terms of volume, they covered us just enough at full blast. The truth is, I was expecting a bit more from the Boombox 3, maybe about 20% louder would have been perfect. In terms of battery life, it lasted us the whole night without any issues, playing continuously for 7-8 hours, and still had a little bit left at the end (it lasts about 24 hours at 50% volume, from what I know). The sound balance and quality were impeccable, as always with JBL. What stood out was that it's the first speaker I've heard that doesn't decrease the bass when you increase the volume. Usually, with other speakers, when you turn up the volume, only the treble gets louder, but this one maintains a perfect balance along with the bass (probably thanks to the central subwoofer it has). Lastly, I would like to mention that the build quality is very good overall, with a sturdy handle. I even added a strap to make it easier to carry.
I hope I helped :)
Finally after months (May 2024) they fixed the app so the speaker doesn't turn off! I'm giving it 5 stars again. The JBL BOOMBOX 3 is the best and most powerful speaker with crystal clear sound in its category. And at 349.00 euros that I bought it, it's worth every penny at 100%
