About this item

Product details

Big vibes, pocket-sized. The JBL Go 5 has serious audio power. Legendary JBL sound shines brightly through crystal-clear details and deep, rich bass that feels louder than should be possible in this palm-sized casing. But the Go 5 is more than iconic sound. New edge lighting powers a soft ambient glow—and you also get selectable themes and visual cues for powering on, pairing, and battery life. And with up to 10 hours of battery life, you can count on the JBL Go 5 to soundtrack your day from morning til night. Take this IP68 waterproof, dust-proof, and drop-proof speaker anywhere—and never worry about a surprise rain shower or accidental fumble again. And hey—when the party calls for louder sound, this speaker still rocks. Bump two Go 5 speakers together to link them up through AirTouch for true stereo sound, or use Auracast™ to pair up to JBL Auracast™-enabled speakers and turn the jams up even louder. And with the JBL Portable app, you can make your listening experience truly yours. It's big sound—all there for the grabbing and going.

Favorite Speaker

Added this Go 5 to our existing Go speaker fleet. End goal is to have one in basically every room of the house. Sound is on-par or better than old-school radios, works well for music and podcasts. Synching them up with Auracast has the occasional hiccup but generally synching up to phone or each other runs smoothly and intuitively. Just a good product that does its job well.

Great little speaker! Great Sound

Wow! This is a fantastic little budget speaker that doesn't skimp on quality. The build is fantastic, solid, feels nice and looks good. I love how portable this thing is! Fits easily in the palm of my hand and light enough to carry around in my bag. I'm so shocked at how good this little thing sounds. Love that it's USB C, love that it's waterproof and love how easy it is to connect to my devices. Battery performance 10/10 a good 8 hours on mid volume. Very happy with my purchase.
