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.

  • Big sound from a small speaker.
Color: Purple
Absolutely one of the best Bluetooth speakers I have bought in recent years! I purchased quite a few Bluetooth speakers from different brands over the years (Sony, Harmon Karmon, Bose, JBL, Ultimate Ears) and this latest addition to the JBL family just absolutely rocks. It's small enough to sit on my nightstand but loud enough to fill my small apartment with good clear bass pumping sound. Out of the box, it has great clarity with just the right amount of bass, but you can download the JBL app and be able to find tune it to your own personal needs. But for me, the sound is great just as it is. It's small and portable but it delivers 45 Watts of sound which is quite a lot to pack into such a package of its size. The battery life is wonderful and long lasting. I have bigger and more expensive bluetooth speakers to use but this fits a niche for me that is just right. And at this price, it is a really good value for the money. Not to mention, I really love the color. It's the right shade of purple for me. It definitely improves the sound quality when I'm watching a movie on my big tablet. This is definitely one speaker that is worth its price. ... show more

  • Best beach speaker!
Color: Blue
Got this for my husband for our beach trip. His last portable speaker was also JBL and it lasted for years and years before it got too much sand in the speakers. I love that this one is sand resistant as well as waterproof. Also the battery life is longer at 18 hours. It connects to blue tooth and it’s compact like the other ones. The sound quality is also better. The blue color is just an added bonus. My husband loved it and uses it all the time! ... show more

  • 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

  • Good Quality
Color: Blue
A very good little speaker. This replaced an older one we had for about 10 years. Used it in the sun, got it wet and no problems. Quality seems very good for the new model as well. As you know, bass is always an issue for a small speaker. This JBL does very well, maybe a little better than the older model. The app has an equalizer which works ok. Again, the right expectation is necessary when buying a small speaker. All in all, a great product. Good looks, good sound, easy pairing and good battery life. Definitely recommend. ... show more

  • Excellent quality product
Color: Blue
So the product said "used" but it arrived sealed in the box like new, all the accessories are impeccable, it has no scratches or bumps, it sounds excellent, I bought this like a month ago and I haven’t charged it yet so the battery is good, was really easy to set up cause of the JBL App, and I use it in the bathroom most of the time that means I tested the waterproof and connectivity both are great. In fact, very good purchase. In addition to this, it arrived earlier than expected ... show more
