Features

  • Surprisingly rich, powerful bass & crisp higher frequencies give the Charge 6 a whole new reason to humble brag. New proprietary tech, AI Sound Boost, which analyzes your music in realtime to deliver maximum acoustic performance with less distortion.
  • Up to 28 hours of playtime: Keep the mood alive for 24 hours on a single charge - and when we really need to squeeze some extra juice out of our jubilee, or another dance with our darling, we can get an extra 4 hours with JBL Playtime Boost.
  • Wouldn't it be great to share the vibes with our tribe? Now we can. With Auracast, we can effortlessly stereo pair two Charge 6 speakers for a wider sound stage & connect multiple Auracast-enabled JBL speakers to cover more ground with the same playlist.
  • On top of our legendary water-proof and dust-proof design (an industry-leading IP68, BTW), we've also made sure that if you drop it from 1-meter onto your concrete floor, it'll keep kicking.
  • Sturdy handle strap: Now we can carry our sound our way with a handy removable handle strap - for those of us who love to make it from the car to the house in one trip no matter the cost.
  • Why is there no USB-C charging cable included with my product? To minimize e-waste, we consciously choose not to include a charging cable in our packaging. However, you can use any standard USB-C cable to charge your JBL product.

  • Better than Sony ULT field three!
Color: Black
I dig deep base and this delivers. I ordered a Sony field three and this Charge 6 to compare them. The Sony came defective - it had a flashing yellow light and refused to accept charging. Eager to run my test, I then went to Best Buy and got an another Sony and it worked fine so I could compare the two. I also took the opportunity at Best Buy to compare all the speakers in this size class that they had on display. The JBL is definitely better at delivering deep throbbing bass when you use the EQ in the app and raise the bass all the way up. Then you have to use a second EQ on the source side which in my case is the EQ in the Spotify app. Raising the base in Spotify along with the maxed out EQ base in the JBL results in great base -equivalent to the ULT mode on the Sony. But where the JBL outperforms is when you really crank up the volume it will give you great base without distortion whereas with the Sony turning up the volume in ULT mode will result in a lot of clipping on the base which is unlistenable. I compared the two over the course of several days and the JBL was the clear winner. Again the trick is to pre-EQ it for maximum base and then use the JBL app to set the in unit EQ to maximum base. I am a professional motion picture editor and have used JBL studio monitors for over 36 years, so when it comes to critical assessment of audio performance I know a thing or two! This little charge six continually amazes me with the depth of sound that comes out of such a tiny unit. Again, it is definitely better than the ULT field three from Sony. I did a lot of research before ordering these products for comparison and it is interesting that a lot of reviewers and AI results indicated that the Sony had better base, but I think what they are failing to realize is that when you want loud volume with no distorted base, the JBL is much better and when you set your pre-EQ and unit EQ for more base, it is equivalent and I think a bit better than the Sony at moderate volumes. Essentially using the JBL‘s internal EQ is like configuring your own custom ULT button on the Sony. Then my own personal preference is to pre-queue it in Spotify with even more base and it’s great! With no distortion! I’ve attached a couple of pictures that show my EQ settings. The algorithm that JBL is using to manage clipping at loud volumes is the best I’ve ever seen. I can turn the volume up to painful levels and it will not distort. This little thing performs so well that every day I can’t wait to grab it and go for a walk with my tunes blasting and it’s probably keeping me safe from the mountain lions and bears! Another plus for this speaker is that there is a YouTube video showing how to open it up and replace the battery, the process is very easy. However it appears we have to wait a while for replacement batteries to become available. Also, customer service is top-notch. I called at 8 o’clock on a Sunday morning because I got stuck doing the online registration process and got a very helpful person right away, they were in the Philippines or India I think. He acknowledged there was a bug and very patiently typed in all my information And then sent me a personal email with all of the confirming data. Very friendly, knowledgeable and efficient! - Footnote - yes I know how to spell bass, especially since I’m a musician, but obviously Siri’s dictation does not. ... show more

  • Great sound quality and volume for the size
Color: Black
This thing is loud! The range is beautiful and you get a rich array of sound considering the size of this speaker. The battery life is insane and I love that I can charge my phone from my speaker in a pinch. The Bluetooth range is adequate and you can reasonably hear the speaker outside of 20 feet. It weighs around 2lbs so it adds a little bit of weight to your pack if you’re mobile, that’s equivalent to about 32oz of water which can be super valuable depending on the temperature and terrain, but this speaker packs a big punch in those 2lbs. She definitely punches above her weight class! I personally choose to carry a little less water (52oz instead of 132oz) so that I can comfortably carry the speaker. Yes I sacrifice about 80oz of water to carry the 2lb speaker but that’s another 8lbs haha I’ll take the tunes instead! ... show more

  • JBL Charge 6: An Absolutely Mind-Blowing Audio Experience – I Am Beyond Impressed!
Color: Black
The JBL Charge 6 is absolutely amazing and I'm incredibly impressed with my recent purchase! The sound quality is simply phenomenal, delivering powerful, rich bass that you can actually feel, alongside incredibly clear mids and crisp highs. It handles all genres with stunning clarity and depth. I'm also really impressed with its ruggedness – the IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating, plus its drop-proof design, means I can take it anywhere without worry. The battery life is outstanding, easily lasting for hours and hours, and the power bank feature is super convenient for charging my phone. With its robust build, exceptional sound, and long-lasting battery, the JBL Charge 6 truly lives up to the hype and is an absolute game-changer for portable audio! ... show more

  • You have to wait a whole month for your refund if you get it be careful it’s a scam
Color: Black
Why did you pick this product vs others?: I like great sounding Bluetooth speakers but the quality in this JBL is not what it says. It only works nine hours versus 24 hours hours with no charging cord. And if you return it, you have to wait a whole month for your refund !
