Even better, the Charge 4 has an aux input and a speakerphone mic that the Charge 5 lacks.įor $120-the same price as an off-the-shelf model on the manufacturer’s website-JBL lets you order a Charge 4 and pick everything from the color scheme to the images and text printed on the fabric speaker grill. And if you’re curious about the newer Charge 5 (which doesn’t have JBL’s personalization option yet), our testers find that the two speakers perform almost identically. It’s a compact bundle of music you can toss like a football.

But the model is the kind of do-it-all portable device you can toss into a bag and, say, use as an impromptu soundbar for a portable projector or even plop down on the front seat of a car without Bluetooth (more on that in just a moment). The Charge 4 is a little boomy in the bass and the all-important midrange is a bit congested, lacking the fine detail you get with the very best wireless speakers. No, it’s not perfect, but no speaker just north of $100 is. All attributes that make it an attractive option when shopping for a new wireless speaker for yourself or a certain someone on your holiday shopping list. And it holds a charge for a good long time. According to our expert testers, it sounds good.
From a performance point of view, the Charge 4 is a Swiss Army Knife.
