    I've owned two JBL Charge 5 portable speakers for a couple of years. I keep one upstairs in the office space that my wife and I share. The other one lives in our kitchen on the first floor. Often, when the weather permits, we like to sit on the front porch and listen to music while hanging out with our dogs. I keep a cooler full of beer and soft drinks on the porch for whoever stops by to hang out. Most nights at least one neighbor joins us. All this summer I've been using the JBL speaker that we keep in the kitchen for this purpose. Recently our closest friend's daughter was celebrating her thirteenth birthday. She plays clarinet in multiple school bands and listens to a lot of music. Her parents thought that it would be fun to make her gifts all music related. My original intent was to buy her a JBL Charge 5 like we own. Then I saw the Pulse 5 online and thought that it would be even better for her. We gave it to her last week, and she absolutely loves it, as do I. So... I got the idea to buy one for myself. The Charge 5 can stay in the Kitchen and the Pulse 5 is my new porch speaker. The light alerts my friends and neighbors that we are "holding court" on our porch, come on over. It is a pretty special product that can appeal equally to both a thirteen-year-old girl and a sixty-five-year-old man. I bought hers new, the "Renewed" version works great for me. This product is a home run!

    Glad I got this "used like new," but would totally pay full price for it. The graphics are GREAT and fun! I think the sound is very comparable to other cylindrical speakers I've had. I don't feel like I am compromising sound for aesthetics.

    Works great and I get my moneys worth! The battery life I would say lasts me for at least 3 days and the enjoyment from the light show that comes with it is super satisfying! It is also waterproof so I always make sure to bring it with me for water activities!

    Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2024
    Fully charged used it and app says its at 80% so battery doest fully charge. Its refurbished but still has previous owners name i. The device name settings. Its too loud in lowest volume setting i cant use it in my room late at night because i have roommates. The logo is huge. Its never just a beautiful clean products no matter what angle you see giant logo or handle. Setting snd light show not customizable enough. Can only combine select few cant combine light show patterns from different categories of light show. It really could be more customizable. Returning it mostly bc battery life and the giant logo

    This little guy puts out some amazing sound and looks good doing it. I wanted something that was going to perform better than my Wonderboom speaker, and this did not disappoint!

    4.0 out of 5 stars A few cosmetic scratches & didn’t come in original box
    Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2024
    I Bought this as a gift for my bf for Christmas this year, I’m on a college student budget so I wanted to save some money and try purchasing refurbished. I haven’t had it for long but the features are cool, it’s customizable enough and all of the modes and different colors are cool. Only thing I don’t love is that it didn’t come in its original box so it doesn’t have any of the instructions or anything, but you can find them on JBL’s website, from a gifting standpoint it’s just not my fav but it’s managable. I’m not a fan of the scratches either but that is kind of expected given it’s refurbished. Haven’t had it long enough to have any opinion on charge life but it sounds good, like any other JBL I’ve had. Haven’t decided if I want to return bc of the scratches yet or not, but that would only be from an aesthetics standpoint since they are more visible with light behind them.
