JBL Grip Reviews

Loud & Powerful

With a size of a 12oz can of energy drink, this little bluetooth speaker packs a serious PUNCH πŸ‘ŠπŸ”ŠπŸŽΆπŸŽ΅πŸŽΌ & without reading into the specs, I swear there's a subwoofer built-in - very loud & punchy bass, rattled the countertop I placed it on! At less than 50% volume, this beast can fill up a small bedroom & heck even a kitchen or living room! Its companion app is pretty intuitive & upon receipt when connected to my phone, it did prompt me to install a software update to the speaker. In the app, there are options for the light's color selections & strobing effects, or you can completely shut it off. Preset EQ selections are available in the app as well as an option to customize. There's a physical button to cycle through the light function in case you don't have your phone/app readily available. The size & shape is uber portable, fits right in my backpack's side pocket where water bottles & compact umbrellas go (see pic). Does not come with a usb-a to usb-c cable, just the speaker itself. This could very well be my go-to bluetooth speaker with a battery life advertised at +/-14 hours, easy to transport & brings the party!!!

I bought the JBL Grip a few weeks ago after I heard my grandson's JBL Clip at a family outing and thought it would be useful for me. He said it didn't use up the battery on his phone like just playing music there. I love being able to turn on my phone and the speaker, find anything I want to listed on Spotify, and listen in any room in the house.
