Title: compact, affordable, and impressive
Review: As an audio enthusiast, I'm always on the hunt for quality sound across various devices, from headphones to Bluetooth speakers.The JBL Go 4 is an impressive speaker for its compact size. While it's not the loudest option out there, it doesn't need to be. Roughly the size of your hand, it still manages to deliver a surprising bass response that you can actually feel when you're holding it.One of its handy features is a strap that allows you to easily carry it around. This makes it perfect for leisurely walks in the neighborhood or small gatherings with friendsâwhether it's for a card game or just hanging out. However, I wouldn't recommend it for larger parties, as it's better suited for more intimate settings. At $50, it offers fantastic bass for its size and is user-friendly and comfortable to transport.As someone who collects speakers for various occasions, I primarily use the JBL Go 4 during my afternoon walks. It's particularly enjoyable in the spring and fall, and I look forward to using it more this fall when the weather is just right.While genres like heavy metal can get a bit distorted at higher volumes, this speaker performs well with audiobooks and softer music genres such as country, pop, and electronic.I think the blue color is stunning; if you're considering a color choice, I highly recommend it. This speaker also makes for a great gift for kidsâperfect if you want to introduce them to audio products without spending too much, as it's an affordable option that can withstand a bit of rough handling.Overall, the JBL Go 4 is a fantastic portable Bluetooth speaker. It may not blow you away with its power, but if you're looking for something compact that can get reasonably loud for a small gathering of two or three people, itâs a perfect choice.

Title: Amazing Sound Quality for a small Speaker
Review: Pros, compact, portable, water resistant, battery last long between charges, sound quality and volume are great for such a small speaker. Easy to set up, attached wristlet, loop to make portability convenient.Cons, one as of yet, I would like to see a clip added so can be clipped to belt or other things.

Title: Finally.
Review: Iâve searched for a very long time for a lightweight super portable easy to carry and use speaker that sounds really good. As a professional speaker, Iâm often hired for smaller or private corporate events with âevent coordinatorsâ who either ignore or misunderstand specified A/V requirements. Despite their reassurances, I never know until I arrive what Iâll have to work with. As a fallback, I need a decent portable speaker that I can use to play video. In a pinch, for a smaller room this will easily do the trick and for a larger room, I can amplify it with a handheld or lavaliere microphone. I had a tiny one for years that sufficed⦠I got it as swag from a client. It eventually gave up that ghost and Iâve never found a suitable substitute that was t big or heavy. This is neither. It isnât fragile, took 2 seconds to pair and weighs only 6.8 oz. So happy!!! Would give it more stars if I could.

Title: Great sound for something so small!
Review: The sound is rich, full, and has decent bass. The sound quality is almost as good as my JBL Flip 5.I bought this because it would fit in my carry on and is water resistant. It lasts about 4-5 hours with a charge. Great little Bluetooth speaker. Love that it has a loop.for clipping to a bag or back pack.

Title: Great little speaker
Review: I have used this a few times and so far it is great! Nice and small but pretty powerful and loud enough that I can hear my music over the noise of the shower and ventilation fan combined. I personally wouldnât test the dust/sand proof or waterproof claims- just based on how the product looks and other reviews I read prior to purchasing. I did purchase a protective silicone cover for it and I think it will prevent the speaker from vibrating and falling off a countertop or shelf. I do agree with other reviewers that the sound it makes when you turn it on and off is a bit loud and startling at first. I wish there was a way to disable that noise. Overall seems like a great purchase!

Title: For the size sound is good
Review: Be aware this is a very compact speaker, I can say is even smaller than the jbl go 2 (which I have tried in the past) mid and high frequencies are good ðð», low frequencies mmmm I wanted a deeper bass, but you cannot demand a very deep bass if it doesn't have a big subwofer, I'll give it an 8/10 it is very loud for the size and battery last more than one day at least for me, I listen to music on my job between 4-6 hours a day with the volume more than a half and when I arrive home battery is at 70%, another thing that I like is that in this version you can use the JBL portable app to manually adjust the equalizer or select a preset, you can see the battery percentage and also pair another jbl go 4 to have stereo sound, it is supposed this speaker is waterproof but I havent tried that and I think I wont lol.In conclusion, if you don't mind having a not so deep bass and you care more about compactness, strong sound and long battery life, this speaker is ideal for you. If you care a lot about low frequencies and beautiful bass, it's better to opt for a larger option from JBL.

Title: Huge improvement over v3
Review: Iâve had the version 3 for years, and got my partner the 4 since theyâve been wanting a good portable speaker. Iâm very impressed. It has better sound quality. The sound now is not affected by the way the speaker is resting or pointing. Itâs lighter than the 3. You can now sync multiple. Iâll be buying one for myself as well. A great speaker for the size and price.

Review: I totally agree with all the 5 star reviews for this little gem of a speaker from JBL. You won't believe the sound coming out of something this small and light (6.7 oz). I think what stuck me the most was the pleasant tone and clarity of sound. It will not have deep bass like a larger speaker (physics of size), but what it does accomplish is amazing for it's size. Attractively styled in several fun colors and feels solid and well made. The silicone covers are slightly grippy and holds it in place upright or laying on it's back. Controls all work well. Battery life depends on volume and music type (bass heavy), but for light to medium volumes it will last 7-10 hours. Download the JBL app to get the most out of your Go 4 and easily allows stereo pairing (must be same model), EQ adjustment (I prefer the JBL signature sound), Auracast (mono signal though other JBL speakers at the same time with same feature) and battery level (app display only) to nearest 10%. Charges quick and cool with USB-C. I'm delighted with the sound in a Stereo pair. Audio latency is minimal and reasonable for dialogue too. As with all speakers, allow some time for break in and further sound improvement, but it is pretty good out of the box.An excellent fun great sounding product of which you'll want more :-)Happy Listening!**Caveat: You need a newer source device with the more recent Blue Tooth and Codecs to make it sound it's best. Older Android phones only have SBC codec (the most basic) which sounds dreadful and not the speaker's fault. I compared an older Samsung S8 to a recent S23 and the sound difference is dramatic in all aspects. Older apple devices may have better codec capabilities (?).
