[@davidgutierrez6023]

As a instrumental musician, These are both great speakers. Tough choice to make. I agree with most of the comments made here. The Charger 5 is great for outdoor sound with a great bass dance sound. The Bose Flex is more enjoyable indoors when you listen to piano, guitar, jazz pieces. Bose is true to its quality. One of each?🤔

[@sonyemerson6675]

yep charge 5 is more likely built for outdoor while flex is more on for indoor.

[@jeffriediazramos6616]

Yup for example right around 3:40 you can clearly hear that Bose has a much warmer boomy sound crystal clear with no distortion while the Jbl charge 5 feels like the music is drowned by a whirpool if you know what I mean

[@CurtisGabrielMusic]

I own one, these audio comparisons sound absolutely nothing like the real thing, how could they when they are first recorded though a crap microphone then filtered through youtube and then played out of whatever speakers the viewer is using. its an absurd idea.

[@Leo_Dave_Secwahi]

​@@CurtisGabrielMusicwhich of these speakers do you own?

[@jordanking7711]

Judging by this comparison, in my opinion it's the other way around, and the Bose sounds more muffled and muddier compared to the JBL. JBL sounds more open.

[@Carlos_rval]

The bose gives the feeling of hearing the music from outside the room with the door semi closed and the JBL is as if you open the door and walk into the room

[@panghongchen4416]

exellent analogy

[@joelf5565]

The Bose Flex comes alive and opens up on its back due to Bose’s automatic position EQ. It doesn’t sound distant or muffled on its back like it does standing up, yet hardly anyone demos it on its back. You also get 360 sound on its back and it is just an easier position. It also sounds good leaning at an angle. Somehow the speaker knows when it is completely vertical and changes the EQ to that muffled sound.

[@scowy_sg2125]

Just the fact the Bose is half the size of this jbl and it’s even in the contest shows me the one I should get is Bose.

Certain songs the Bose can have crisper vocals that pop out and does have more bass than expected. But the JBL Charge 5 has more bass and has more balance. Overall JBL wins the battle. Not too mention it has twice the battery life. JBL Charge 5 (20 hours) Bose (10 hours)

[@systemerror9]

In my Honest opinion BOSE FLEX warm bass punchy sound soothes your ears. Bose technology was very pleasing, in my taste Bose flex was having a more balanced and more eardrum friendly than the more spikey sound of JBL yes it was louder and more crispier but will eventually cause unusual earpain or irritability , I prefer the softer warm sound that was so smooth but still you can get your satisfaction , That was just a personal opinion Maybe more people preferred other way around it was just my ears

[@elyad67]

Same but that is what Bose is selling people, their sound eq preset, which soothes more, but why not get the more capable charge 5 and install Poweramp EQ with 31 customizable bands. Bose product seems like a rip off or something for lazy people

[@BadmashKing8]

Alright, so I have both the charge 5 and Bose flex. In my opinion, Bose can be listened for longer as it’s sound is more mellow and soothing. The charge 5 gets a bit ear piercing at times. If you haven’t, you have to try the Bose, I find my self listening to it a lot more. Also with the Bose, you don’t have to crank it up to hear the bass, it’s so deep that I can be listening to it at any volume. I would say the charge 5 is more of a party/outdoor speaker while the Bose is more of a chill speaker you can listen in like a small gathering. Both speakers are great though, charge 5 is very loud for its size!

[@sainathkaja]

Which one you recommend? Pls help

[@BadmashKing8]

@@sainathkaja if you can get the flex for under a $100, it’s well worth it! The sound is more pleasant and easier in the ears. Although, JBL does sound loud for its size. I’d personally go with the flex but it also comes down to what you prioritize.

[@rayallen4967]

What should i buy?

[@joelf5565]

@rayallen4967 As the comment stated. Bose is better for chilling and small gatherings and the JBL for parties. So it depends what you are looking to do. I personally like the sound quality of the Bose Flex better than the JBL.

[@adonaijanaslarona3245]

Bose has boosted mid bass and upper bass but recessed upper mids and highs. This gives the listener the impression of a more "full bodied" bass boosted sound signature, especially considering its size. Psychoacoustic at its work. Bose is truly an industry expert in this area. But if you compare it side by side with the Charge 5, it's just no contest. Charge 5 has more balanced frequency across the spectrum. It is bass boosted from mid bass to upper bass as well while still retaining the details in the upper mids and highs. I guess that's having a separate tweeter can do. It sounds like a miniaturized JBL Xtreme. Charge 5 wins in my opinion.

[@AudioyMas]

estas en lo correcto amigo, por que bose en un volumen menos del 80% para el tamaño que es se defiende muy bien, muchos opinan que es el competidor del próximo Flip 6, pero es imposible que bose le pueda ganar ya que el Flip 6 traerá su Tweeter el cual hará de un sonido cristalino.

[@migks37]

I agree with you when you say Bose is expert in psychoacoustic. But It’s half the size of charge 5 it actually is in the same level of charge 3... the Bose reaches about the same depth in bass as the charge 3.

[@migks37]

@@AudioyMas no me gusta bose, pero créame, este parlante es muy potente en termos de bass, el flip6 no podrá ser mejor, en el bass, el ventaje del tweeter con el flip6 será al máximo volumen, con un sonido agudo irritante.

[@soberanisfam1323]

[@y-sadynie1554]

I agree. I brought the charge 5 overseas to my wife and the fam and she's in love with it. So I'm leaving it with her and the fam here in Cambodia 🇰🇭. I'll be back in the states this week and I'll be buying another Charge 5.

[@bassboostedmusictv7989]

I just recently bought the bose soundlink flex and the bass is really good I always keep it at 60% cuz it pushes out the bass limit at that percent but I tryed 100% and it just sounded like TV speakers so I just kept it at 60% which is the best for this little speaker.

[@EvanLovell]

Scammed

[@edcipriani8873]

@@EvanLovell - Not scammed, smart. The treble on the JBL Charge 5 sounds way too harsh. Just because someone else made a different choice than you would have, you can put on your big boy pants and not resort to your BS tactics.

[@EvanLovell]

@@edcipriani8873 the only reason the bose sound bassy is because they just push the mids the jbl is actually flat and it has a tweeter and a actual woofer the bose has a speaker that is the size of jbl tweeter and it sounds so bassy and muffly

[@edcipriani8873]

​@@EvanLovell - Let's look at the real specs here: The JBL Charge 5 actually has a 20mm 10-watt tweeter and a racetrack-style 52mm-by-90mm 30-watt woofer, and two passive radiators on either side. The Bose Flex has full-range 60mm transducer, and dual passive radiators, one front-facing and the other facing the back of the unit, showing that there is some bass presence here, which indicates that your statement, “The only reason the Bose sound bassy is because they just push the mids,” is not accurate. I have listened to both the Charge 5 and the Flex in several KZbin comparisons as well as in-person, and a few other Bluetooth speakers besides these two. I actually bought the Flex about a week ago and I am overall impressed. Even though the Flex obviously doesn't produce as much bass as the Charge 5, the Flex still has a good amount of bass. Some people prefer more bass and some of us prefer a more balanced sound, go with what works for you. The one thing that I didn’t like about the Charge 5 is the treble is too harsh. Additionally, besides the Flex, I also bought the Marshall Emberton a couple weeks ago as well on a great black Friday deal, and that speaker definitely delivers more bass and clear highs. I might have to keep both the Flex and the Emberton. I actually own about 4 other Bluetooth speakers besides these recent purchases, including a Klipsch KMC 1 which was purchased in 2015, so I know the competition pretty well.

Unfortunately nobody seems to demo this speaker on its back.

I'm planning to buy a speaker for my job where I work long hours. I think everyone is talking too much about how loud and clear the C5 is but that is only enjoyable for maybe max 1 hour. After that you will get tired and your ears want to turn off the speaker cause no ears want to have that kind of exhaustion and headache. The Bose on the other hand is perfect for long hours of listening to music. Just compare that to how sound studios at radio stations usually sounds like: they are warm and trap you inside one room and not that type of "blasting sound out from the window" like sagt the Charge 5 is exactly doing. So if you wanna part outdoor, go ahead and buy that Charge 5. This is only good for teenagers. But if you are mature enough and want to use a speaker indoor long hours, then definitely it's the Bose that is the King of the speakers! Not everything should be about how loud and clear sounds should be. Your ears should be handle it during long durations also! Good luck listening to C5 for long time! I'd bet you would turn if off in no time.

Wooo here we are! Both very good but I still prefer the JBL. You may think that the Bose has more bass, but actually it looks like they are more like boomie bass, with much more dsp work, while the JBL's bass are more like true, autentic bass. On the other side if we analize the middles the JBL is by far the best. And also I prefer the highs of the JBL, the Bose ones aren't bad but they are too much thin...
