About JBL Clip 4: Portable Speaker with Bluetooth
Overall Feedback:
71% positive
85% found the battery long-lasting, yet 15% reported unexpected drainage
The battery life is up to 10 hours. Cold weather affects its longevity, but it keeps its life span indoors.
The speaker's battery lasts about 8 hours on high volume. I use it from 7am to 5 or 6pm every day, but charge it during lunch to make it last longer.
I have not used the speaker for more than 3-4 hours at a time, so I cannot comment on the 10 hour claimed battery life.
I am frustrated with the speaker's battery life. It is very short and takes forever to charge.

92% found it easy to connect, however 8% encountered issues
The Bluetooth range of this speaker is good and it works fine with no skips from about 20 feet away.
The device has Bluetooth 5 with the best range I have noticed on any Bluetooth device. There is no lag when playing videos and devices are easy to connect.
I tested the Bluetooth distance from 2 rooms away with several walls blocking the connection (approximately 60 feet away) and there was no hesitation with the connection. The music played smoothly.
I took my 92-year-old grandmother out for walks in her wheelchair and let her choose the music to jam to. She got so excited.

89% found it easy to connect, but 11% faced difficulties in pairing
I think the product could benefit from multi-connect technology as it falls short in staying together.
88% praised the compact and portable design, although 12% found it bulky
The speaker is portable and can fit in any beach or tote bag. It also clips easily to anything if space is running short.
I love the portability of the speaker as it can easily attach to various things like bike rack, belt loops, etc.
I rated the portability of the speaker 4 out of 5 because it is tough and fairly small, but I wish it had a flat edge on one of the sides so it can stand up. Currently, it has to lay down on the front or the back.
87% appreciated the sound quality, but 13% were disappointed
The sound quality is excellent for its size with good bass, especially with the phone equalizer turned on. I am also impressed with the sheer frequency response quality.
From my perspective, the sound quality is bass heavy but fine.
For music, the sound quality is just okay and for podcasts, the bass is too high which washes out men's voices, making it hard to listen to.
