    5.0 out of 5 stars compact, affordable, and impressive
    Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2024
    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 friends—whether 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 kids—perfect 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, it’s a perfect choice.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great portable speaker
    Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2025
    I recieved one of these as a gift and was shocked at how loud and how high quality the sound is. Then I found out you can link two togeather for true stero sound, so I bought a second one. Even better sound in a very compact, long lasting, easy to setup, durable package. I use them by my hot tub with no problems..... they have been dropped multiple times, been soaked with water and still function perfecrly. Does not have a 3.5mm jack if you are looking for one, but the bluetooth and app connectivity are great. I have an mp3 player from the stone age that I was going to plug in but only for nostalgia... plenty of other ways to play music. Charges fast, sounds as good as my old / larger bose sound bar, and is lighter / more compact. Impressed especially for the money!

    Game Changer!!! Buy multiples of these speakers, get the app and play your favorite songs through the house. Connects to Bluetooth in seconds. So easy to set up multiples that the technically challenged can do it. They function like a big speaker but in the smallest package. I have 4 synced together and even more can join the party. Thick material and hearty little box, seems to be waterproof as well. The best sound for the money. No static and sound quality is crystal clear. So glad I found these.

    I really enjoyed the JBL GO 3 so I tried this one as well. These speakers are very loud for their size and can fit in one hand to carry around at the beach or wherever. Excellent quality. Still have my GO3s as well!

    4.0 out of 5 stars A pretty good little speaker that could have been a little better.
    Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2024
    I bought the JBL Go 4 because of it's small size and low price. I got it from Amazon for $40. It's smaller, lighter, and less expensive than the tiny Tribit and the mini Bose and others. Also it stands up, pointing the speaker sideways, where several other tiny speakers don't.
    The small size and low weight make it easily pocketable. And I really like this color. It looks nice, and it's water submersible, too.
    The sound quality is a mixed bag. The bass is decent for it's tiny size. Upper bass is strong enough to make you think the speaker is bigger, while the mid to low bass is weak to nothing. Frequency response is a somewhat uneven. There's little dip in the midrange, and the higher treble is weak. The EQ in Spotify helps balance that out a little, but don't boost the bass a lot. At high volumes, the sound quality suffers, particularly if you have the bass boosted.
    JBL also has a sound app with an equalizer, which I have not tried.
    I am convinced that the big rubber JBL logo is absorbing some of that treble. I'd bet that this speaker would sound better if they just had a tiny logo in the corner, not blocking the speaker. Are you listening, JBL?
    Sound quality varies from song to song, even within a genre. Some songs make the Go 4 come alive, while a few songs here and there make the speaker sound a little muffled. Even the bass response will sound better on some songs, and worse on others. Turning off auto sound leveling in Spotify has helped somewhat.
    Overall, this speaker sounds substantially better than the cheap iHome bluetooth speaker I bought years ago. The Go 4 makes the iHome sound harsh and trebley.
    The Go 4 can fill a bedroom with sound, even at a few notches below the max sound level. And if you place it 2-3 inches in front of a wall, it gives the bass a little extra boost.
    I have not tested the battery life. Info says 7 hours, which is short, but usable. This one will charge up with a small battery USB charger, and it can play while charging.
    The sound is good enough for me to want to use it. And, I can put it in my pocket and carry the sound around with me. That's what I wanted. I will get my money's worth out of this speaker. Now to get a carabiner for my belt loop.
