FAKE vs REAL JBL GO 3 Portable Bluetooth Speaker (2024)

[@TaylorSoloaiJR]

WATCH PART 2 of to make sure you have the real JBL GO 3. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWO9dIZ3dsh1aMU

[@ginazapanta4350]

The easy way is go to the original store 🙂 Or if you are buying online check online store rating and also check and read reviews

[@ashwintemkar]

But in the original store too we got the one with White writing, so you're wrong here, more over the difference is in the light camo engravings that says UK Ca, so the one with that is original

If you notice the passive radiator and driver aren't paired as well on the counterfeit jbl. Passive radiators are tuned to respond with the driver like a simulated port with a certain roll off and if you noticed on the counterfeit jbl it actually starts to work against the driver as if the Passive isn't correctly mass tuned to the active driver or the dimensions of the inner or even material weight differences in the counterfeit are causing undesired sound or causing active driver to reach its limitations before fully loading the Passive sorry for the run on ramble just a passers-by observation and inference.

[@lunchie80]

Correct, flapping radiators just means they are loose, insufficient mass etc. Uneducated people think it's cool though.

[@gachimuchi6969]

I think it's because of the shooting on camera

[@xentiment6581]

@@gachimuchi6969 to be fair the chance that someone actually engineered proper passive radiator for a fake is very low. They likely just slapped on an aftermarket one without much thought or reason.

First look, the right one was the original one just basing on the mesh pattern and quality. But in reality, the left one is a really good copy. If there wasn't a real one to compare to, I would have no second thoughts that the left one was real

[@djpainkiller3326]

The fake one lacks bass and sounds a little distorted and the real sounds nice clean and has good amount of bass and has no distortion

[@dragonfru1tooo]

On a fake, there is a little light passive radiator, it creates distortion and does not give much bass, this can be solved by installing coins with glue, I don’t promise that it’s really better, but I could try 🧐 (I’m Russian, I used a translator)

Fakes have improved so much these days that the only clear cut physical difference one can discern is the moving rubber on the loop. Even the sound quality has improved, someone should do a water test on one.

In my first order the fake one there something I noticed to the sound when turning on its not the same as my other jbl speakers. That's why I sell it right away and bought a new one and it label Anatel the sounds is more pleasing to my ears. I search everywhere to find jbl go3 fakes and I couldn't find anything.

Thank you so much everyone for the 44K views! I did not expect this video to get this much attention. August 19 2021 The review I did on the online shop for the FAKE JBL GO3 I bought is now hidden, because they said it was irrelevant. Makes me think that "Shopee" knows what these sellers are selling but because the money is so good they just remove comments that are honest from these sellers product review. Its just sad people buying it thinks its legit and real when its actually a copy.

[@RCB_Diy]

B coss! it's so nice vdo

[@huenson4487]

Look at the back strokes on the rubber of the original, they start from small to large, the fake starts directly with a large stroke. That's how you can tell if you have an original or a fake. About a thumbs up I would be happy. your'e welcome.

[@my2randomcents]

Wym?

[@youqinglan2462]

I watched your video and I bought a fake one. It continued to play for five hours. I think the sound quality is okay. Maybe others think it’s not worth it, but I think it’s worth buying something almost the same for half the price. When I asked the store about the situation, he also told me that this is a 1:1 copy

If u want to know which is orginal jbl go 3 ,the orginal one have counter weight piece of metal inside for weight, may be the fake one doesnot have it, thts why when the fake one plays music its starting to bounce but the orginal one not doesnt bounce like the fake did.and also passive radiator in fake looks duplicate, but the orginal passive radiator blends with the speaker, nice and clean design.there are other things to look for orginal from fake, u cant copy all things from the orginal.

[@themonopoly5342]

Becoz the real one was also made in China. Someone worked there used the remaining materials & parts to make more by using the same machines in the same factory. Otherwise no one will fake a $35 speaker.

Bro I have a $1 fake of casio f91 w and it works for 3 years no problem 😅 I even swim with it... for just $1 lol

[@lunchie80]

I hate when people think a flapping passive means anything. It just means it's lighter/looser. It's replacing a bass port so it's just like having a smaller port which makes it "feel" like more air is moving. In reality, a flappy radiator means it's poorly tuned.

[@Fluffy_Luffy_Fnaf]

5:24 what soundtrack is this plz tell me ^^

Mine has the serial number printed in white. But, the rest everything is as same the original as mentioned in the above video. I got my serial number registered in the JBL official website for warranty as well. Even it acts the same as the original in the second real vs fake test video

[@teamisan]

Just by looking at it you know which one looks premium, clean and wasn't overdone.

So you can take it apart just by unlocking the clips around the case? Saw another video earlier and the dude started taking out the button sides first, this looks way easier.
