The fifth generation of the popular wireless speaker has become even better. It now uses the new Bluetooth 5.1 for connecting to a source; for comparison, the previous generation Charge speakers worked with Bluetooth 4.2.
The speaker is completely dust and waterproof with an IP67 standard. The manufacturer claims that the speaker has received "impressive clarity of sound and deep bass".
The JBL Charge 5 is equipped with the JBL PartyBoost feature so that users can connect multiple JBL speakers together.
The playback time is 20 hours - at this moment, the company has not made any changes, however, no competitor has achieved such a result yet.
The design of the Charge 5 has not undergone major changes; it is still recognizable. A couple of silicone bumpers have been added to the side passive radiators to protect the speaker from falls.
