Finally! I've been waiting for a comparison between the Charge 5 and the older models. Great review, man! Although, could you talk a little bit slower next time? I'm having a hard time understanding sometimes 😅 Thank you!

[@alanrossreviews]

[@MattKirk007]

I LOVE my charge 3 I used it daily for about 3 years and is my go to traveling speaker. My onyx studio 6 is for parties and work. Got my charge 3 for $90 in 2017 best deal ever. I left it on my porch for about 4 months and forgot about on accident and it still held its full charge

[@alanrossreviews]

the last great jbl speaker!

[@木木杰比艾勒]

4 MONTHS?!??! LOL charge 3 is a really good speaker in my opinion i use a black charge 4

[@l4ffingdogg233]

Agree with your assessment that Charge 5 has a meaty sound. I first used mine during a 'guys weekend', a friend put away his Bose Revolve, the Pill and another speaker were never brought out. It sounded great indoors, on the porch and in the golf cart.

[@minebro7845]

In my opinion the charge 5 is a great speaker.

[@alanrossreviews]

[@jessa.3857]

It sure is! I originally bought an open box (tried saving some money!) and returned it because it sounded really bad. I decided to buy and new one and glad I did! 👍

[@andyx2]

Another comprehensive review. I was awaiting this with elevated expectations. However, not enough of an upgrade to desert my C2 and X2.

[@alanrossreviews]

yeah not over x2 but yes over c2 for me.

[@andyx2]

Sorry, I meant the Charge 3.

[@ypoora1]

Big upgrade over the charge 4 in my opinion, i will probably sell my 4 and get a 5. The bass no longer distorts the mids and treble. That Charge 3 is really holding it's own though!

[@alanrossreviews]

just make sure you can handle the highs, its a big contrast to the charge 4.

[@grandtheftgameryt]

That’s kind of the trend I have also noticed with the JBL speakers. The flip 4 still holds ground with its stereo sound, the flip 5 is pretty dated with its single driver and the flip 6 is great too with its double driver setup. The charge is the same story. I personally hated the single driver and no tweeter, relying on all the frequency range to come from one relatively small driver.

[@reyesantonio267]

​@@grandtheftgamerytel flip 5 es más equilibrado. Y más potente que el flip 4, el flip 6 al subir volumen pierde sus bajos y aumenta demaciado los agudos. No se si sean todos los modelos.

Haleluja! Alan you are da basst! 😄 Thank you for good review that I was waiting for.

[@alanrossreviews]

thank you 😁😁😁😁

[@AbsoluteFidelity]

The Charge 5 totally reminds me of the Xtreme 3's sound signature. Havent A-B'ed both charts side by side but totally sounds very similiar. Past generation JBLs usually rolled off earlier in the higher spectrum around 18khz, they seem to be fixing this problem with all the new ones. Sometimes it works, like the PB300 vs 310, sometimes it doesnt, as we can see here. Guess it works better with bigger and not smaller speakers. Also, deeper bass is always a welcomed addition! Another great one Alan!!!

[@alanrossreviews]

maybe they just used a shit tweeter? the highs are there but no quality to them. 😣

[@AbsoluteFidelity]

[@yashveerjugnarain7187]

@@AbsoluteFidelity let's agree that JBL's stock tuning is worlds better than Soundcore's, however an embedded equalizer is always more welcome than a tune you're stuck with. Also, I'm sure JBL could dig in their parts bin to make a speaker with the form factor of the Motion+ with a combined 6 drivers/radiators and then proceed to price it at around $300

[@alessandroruta9272]

Great review and comparison, and thanks for including the Charge 3! I am among the ones who still enjoys using two of them in stereo with the original Connect.

[@alanrossreviews]

one of the lucky ones, the rest of us updated and it was never the same again 😂

[@alessandroruta9272]

@@alanrossreviews I was able to downgrade both of them to v5.4, the lowest firmware publicly avaible which still uses the old Connect. I did that by using an unofficial app called ConnectPlus from @andrew7985. Both .apk file and firmware files (v5.4 and v7.3) are still available on GitHub. I read the flashing process is a bit risky, but I tried it anyway and it worked just fine for me.

[@docelecktronc568]

I agree that it sounds as if JBL finally fixed the Charge 3 by creating and bass enhancing the Charge 5. JBL should be careful in what they charge for their speakers. A couple of years ago I had sold my Charge 3 about a year later I picked up a Soundcore Motion+. If one is only comparing the sound quality, in my opinion the Motion+ easily outshines the Charge 5 and gets much louder for a $100 price tag. Thanks for this wonderful review 👍

yup i was shocked again when the charge 5 couldn't even get as loud as the xb33 😂😂

[@fahrradbang69]

[@milhouse14]

I have the Charge 4 and there's no delay in audio and video while watching KZbin. In fact, I'm using it right now while watching this video.

[@alanrossreviews]

there is always a delay, the question is how much delay. not noticing delay is not the same having no delay. i always stress results vary depending on platform and devices as bluetooth latency is very much about the chain rather than just the speaker. you see no delay i see lots of delay, who is representative?

[@dominiksx]

Good stuff, really looking forward to XB33 comparison! xb33 currently going for 100 euros on amazon :)

@@alanrossreviews Going off of your A/B comparisons, I really like the sound of the Sony, while Anker I own and after awhile it leaves me feeling a bit dry. Its all so subjective mate, we get people around here claiming Flip 5 is the greatness all the time, so go figure ;)

The Sony xb33 sounds like a mini boombox , maybe that's why some people prefer it over the Motion Plus

Absolutely hands down,the charge 3 is the best sounding of all of the charges. I had a 3 iwas having trouble with so they sent me a charge 4 to replace it.it sounds terrible compared to the 3. The sound is so muddy with the new ones

[@alanrossreviews]

the charge 5 sounds like the charge 3 with added bass to me.

[@bryanholley5262]

@@alanrossreviews i haven't heard the new ones. I really wish they would've just stayed with the charge 3 design, it would've been great. But, not all upgrades are good. In my opinion, they should've stayed with more speakers. The new speaker that they put in there isn't very good speaker. To me they are a glorified TV speaker. They use the same speakers in tvs.

Waiting for Motion plus (Flat EQ mode, Bass-up mode) vs Charge 5 vs xtreme 3 comparison

[@emdkh]

Bass-up mode on the motion plus is terrible. It's hurting ones ears. Go with a decent custom setting, it will have much better quality bass and a much more enjoyable frequency response. Check Alan's settings, or check the custom settings of oluv. These make the motion+ shine like never before. It's amazing! Just never press that bass up button ever again - you'll need the app to set it back to custom.

could be next vid, xb33 vs c5 vs m+, since listening to the motion boom and being used to deep bass the lack of bass in the m+ is more of an issue to me now. you do get bass with the xb33, but its much smoother and slightly less detailed, so still deciding 😁

[@palmereldritch500]

Great review, thank you! I have the three from 2016 and loved it for years but need to replace as developed a rattle. Watched loads of reviews but should have watched this first... So JBL increase the price but take away aux in, speaker phone, stereo and a bloody power brick, increase the logo and hype the price?? I bought the 5 and the sound is richer somehow and the low bass is lush but now thinking I need to return and get the motion +? One of my issues with the motion plus is that it looks fragile compared to the JBL? I have two young kids and the speaker is bound to get knocked around... Do you think the motion + can hack it?

Awesome review. I am now waiting for my 2'nd motion boom, I am really curius how they sounds in stereo. I have 2 Sony xb40 that i use as go to speakers for partys around the camp fire, as they are desent sounding and pak some punch, and they are pretty compact so plenty of room for lager in the backpack. So now I just have to see if the bigger bass and clearer sound of the "boom" is worth sacrifise some lager and bier for, as they are kind of bulkier with the handle and the bigger body, time will tell 😜

When you say compared to flip 5 bass is non existent this tells me you may have a defective unit. My charge 5 pisses on the flip 5 for bass.

[@alanrossreviews]

Btw i strongly disagree live instruments are the best way to test these speakers. The best way to test is with the music you will actually play. For wider testing electronic music is a great way to test how they handle wideband frequency and complexity. I know this live instruments are best for testing is touted a lot but i have yet to hear a scientific basis for this. It makes most sense when someone like yourself has a lot of experience wirh them and thus you can focus right in on what you need to listen out for. As i say live instruments are great fot testing if you will actually be playing live music but electronic music can be great for more general testing.

@@alanrossreviews Not defective, Bass is there but it seems like crossover frequency is either set too low and therfore lacks volume in the mix or simply ......cant have proper volume balance with treble without bi amping it

Actually the Charge 4 was the first JBL speaker to not have the speakerphone function😉

[@mdluk199]

I always think JBL.make.the best speakers if you listen to rock/guitar music. Most other speakers only sound good with bass heavy crap not proper music

[@alanrossreviews]

define proper music. each to their own, music is music.

[@mdluk199]

@@alanrossreviews People playing real instruments and singing without tapes or technical help would be my definition. But anyway, my issue with reviews of Bluetooth speakers is that it's usually bass heavy music that is used for sound tests. I like rock music so it's not a very good guide for me. Not signalling yourself out as it seems all reviewers use the same kind of tracks.

We get it JBL, you've just about run out of ideas to improve your speakers...

[@alanrossreviews]

Not really, their idea is still to get as much out of your wallet as possible for minimum innovation and value 😭😭

Hello Alan, could you give us your appreciation of the Charge 5 New Update 0.8.6.0 😮 Thanks ! 😮

[@alanrossreviews]

wont be for a while..im out of action.

[@psj3940]

@@alanrossreviews Ok..., hope you are all right, take good care.

[@psj3940]

Hello Alan, I got the TT model (in Canada). I really would like you to compare the Updated version 0.8.6.0 cause I think the High frequencies have been corrected so does NOT sound harsh anymore (or lot less). Need to be confirmed with numbers, not just from my hearing experience.

AND you said you would review it in TWS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.........................

sony srs-xb12 VS JBL charge 5

[@alanrossreviews]

😂

[@sungkim742]

JBL went with mono because they want you to buy two Charge 4 or 5 to get stereo. It's all about maximizing profits.

[@alanrossreviews]

maybe but they should have bundles of two speakers where its cheaper than buying two separately.

Close your eyes and you won't hear any difference.
