People are insain, I donât even comment here anymore but bro the jbl is so much more advanced with far superior drivers and design not to mention much better dsp. All these comments must be ai about UE or something. I stupidly purchased mini booms years ago they sucked ass. UE products are durable kinda but sound shit with borderline genetic acoustic design lmfao. They are manufactured by Logitech the whole Bluetooth design so not really a UE product like the in ear monitor that kicked off the brand decades ago now
Original jbl charge users know what I mean, even that 15yo speaker cooked modren UE⌠There is a reason they were better reviewed and more available, they are better. But tbh I got âconvincedâ UE products were of quality so I canât blame people that donât know or havenât heard much.
In 2025, you're not getting something that last years. To put on perspective I still daily drive a JBL Charge 1. And prefer it over my Flip 4 that's battery decided to kick the bucket after 3 years and had to replace 2x and my brother's Flip 6. There's even the Xtreme 4 still having battery issues. You want something to last get an older speaker find a way to replace the battery with Lithium Solid State batteries and add fans and Sensitive speakers. In short DIY as if a part breaks then you can replace that part.
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 đ.
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
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.
