The good, the cheap and the extreme

While we're obviously not here to play favorites and make the tough decisions for you, it's clearly hard to find a better speaker in terms of portability and overall value for money than the JBL Clip 4 at 79 $.95. So you should easily understand our immense excitement at the imminent arrival of a new and improved edition of Clip 5 with, you guessed it, the same old price.

Compared to its predecessor, this economical but not cheap model will be even easier to clip to your backpack or other travel bags thanks to a redesigned carabiner with a larger, more accessible opening than ever before. Perhaps more impressively, the JBL Clip 5 offers up to 12 hours of battery life, compared to a maximum of 10 for the Clip 4, while also promising “cleaner” sound and “consistent bass” at every volume .

Of course, this device is still nowhere near as impressive as the JBL Xtreme 4 in terms of endurance time between charges or audio performance.

These are modern and very nice features for this price, and what's even more interesting is that the Go 4 manages to add a whole two hours to the Go's admittedly modest 5 hour battery life 3, without radically changing its universally appreciated design. What's not so great is that you have to wait until June for your chance to order the JBL Go 4, Clip 5 and Xtreme 4contrary to…

The top-of-the-line JBL PartyBox Stage 320, on the other hand, packs two high-sensitivity woofers and two tweeters into a decidedly not small body, requiring a telescoping handle and “robust” wheels to move from stage to stage while promising to keep the party going for up to 18 hours straight.
