The Charge 5 builds on this sonic profile admirably. The bass also impressed – while it's not as bombastic as its looks might suggest, its low-end is plentiful and tasteful, with plenty of power and depth. We found the Charge 4's sound to be surprisingly refined for a speaker of its class, with a consistent substance and texture through the mids and treble, and better than average clarity to the midrange. They both have the same 7500mAh battery offering the same 20 hours of playback from a single charge, and both can be used to charge your mobile device when out and about (hence the name). Shame.īoth the Charge 4 and 5 can survive being submerged in up to 1.5m of water for half an hour, but the 5 is dustproof too. But you can’t link the Charge 5 to the older Charge 4, or any older Connect+ enabled JBL speakers for that matter – they have to be running PartyBoost.

This is a step up from the Charge 4's Connect+ feature, letting you wirelessly daisy chain the Charge 5 with up to 100 other PartyBoost-enabled JBL Bluetooth offerings, although that is currently limited to the Boombox 2, Flip 5, Xtreme 3 and Pulse 4. Which is good news, considering the Charge 5 comes with JBL's PartyBoost mode. There is also Bluetooth 5.1 rather than 4.2, expanding the wireless range from 10m to about 40m. These units both have dedicated power amplification – 30W for the woofer and 10W for the highs.

The 52 x 90mm bass driver is a couple of millimetres wider than the Charge 4's, and there’s a new 20mm tweeter.

But the Charge 5 does bring some impressive specs to the portable party.įirstly, its sonic abilities have been upgraded. JBL Charge 5 vs Charge 4: featuresīluetooth speakers at this price aren't usually bursting with features – there's no wi-fi, for starters, and no support for voice assistants. So, the Charge 5 is a bit bigger, but a lot sturdier. The ends of the Charge 5’s trademark barrel-like bodywork boast a slightly more robust rubberised reinforcement, while the speaker itself is a whole 1mm taller, 2mm deeper, 3mm wider and 5g heavier than its older brother – although there’s little in that to the naked eye.

Under a smaller rubber cap, you still get the useful USB-A port for using the Charge 5 to charge your devices. Gone is the 3.5mm port for wired listening, and the new USB-C charging port is uncovered this time.

The rubberised underbody now comprises pleasing diagonal lines for traction when you set it down (as first seen on the Go 3), rather than a block of opaque rubber. The Charge 5 has a larger logo, but it looks classier too, less like a badge with simple metallic accents around the letters rather than a block frame. The Tour One will be priced at $299.95/£279.99, and the Pro+ will be $199.95/£179.99.The Charge range is built to handle the great outdoors – as such, sturdy, chunky build quality is very much the order of the day.ĭesign-wise, there's not much to choose between the two. Battery life is estimated at 6 hours with ANC on or 8 hours without, which is roughly the same as you'd get from the Galaxy Buds Live. Meanwhile, the Tour Pro+ true wireless earbuds have 6.8mm dynamic drivers, Qi wireless charging, dual connections, IPX4 water/sweat resistance, and tap controls. JBL claims a battery life of up to 25 hours with ANC on.

The Tour One is a pair of standard over-ear headphones with active noise cancelling, 40mm dynamic drivers (certified for frequencies up to 40kHz), fast charging, and easy access to your phone's digital assistant. JBL has now announced several new audio products that will start shipping next month, including outdoor speakers, true wireless earbuds, and other audio gear.įirst up are two pairs of high-end headphones, the JBL Tour One and JBL Tour Pro+. This year's Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2021) doesn't technically start until next week, but there are always companies that reveal their new stuff a bit early.
