Charge Essential 2

Mine didn't last quite that long but I was very happy with the 4-5 years I got out of it and I bought essentially the same thing but with a usb-c port afterward. I hang mine from the shower curtain rod and listen to audiobooks during my shower and then bring it into the kitchen while I cook or handle the dishes. Basically I use it several times a day and have no complaints. They don't sound amazing but they don't need to.

I use a JBL charge in my truck and a JBL earbud when walking.

Until it's too hot and shuts itself off. In an ffv, the side window is possibly better

I bought several of them: JBL charge, Xtrem, marshall emberton 1, Willem, Sony ult. All of them have problems. I don't mean the sound, everything is alright there, I mean how they react. All the JBL start to blink after a while. It's like a Christmas tree in my bedroom. Just annoying and really not necessary. The marshall doesn't blink but switch off by itself if you stop playing music. Annoying again. And both are software related. If they wanted to upgrade it they could. Sony ult is different. It doesn't switch off, it has a microphone. It's great but why they didn't build this speaker accepting two phones connected? If someone has an idea of a perfect speaker that doesn't switch off, don't blink and accept two phones or computers I want to hear 🙉.

So it basically offers everything that most of my separate speaker lack... I still don't understand why marshall and JBL can't add that to their software. The not blinking in JBL and the auto shutoff in emberton1

Yes I saw that. I paid a lot for my Xtrem 4 but it worth it. It's a true stereo speaker while the charge is mono.

Reddit is full of toxic people. Which you are. Don't you have better things to do than saying dumb things about my post. I posted it because I wanted to know I'd some people were having the same issues and if they could propose me other brands. Not to be insulted.

Well okay. So tell me how I can stop the JBL to blink using their software? Or my emberton to switch off after not playing anything for 5 minutes. I'm all ears.

well they are all blinking after a while when you don't use it. every single JBL

Yeah, realistically that isn't going to happen, replacing 10 speakers with 1-3 is tough as it is, much less when those 10 speakers were designed for the space they are in and those 1-3 are jammed into an enclosure with the amp and battery in a single unit... I mean the closest you will get is a one of the big JBL Party Boxes which honestly isn't very portable at like 75 pounds and 45 inches tall, not to mention they run a grand or so. If you just want decent sound quality -AND- portability the JBL Flip, Charge, or even the Extreme series are pretty decent, but for high end quality you are going to be going well over the $500 mark... KEF, Bowers & Wilkens, Sonos, etc. And Bose... Yeah, I am not a huge fan... I would take the Infinity system in my Hyundai over it in a heartbeat for sound quality.
