Looks just a good as the render! The colors were bright, sharp and obviously the sound doesn't disappoint. Everyone at my work has one of these so I decided to get my own custom one and was very happy with how it turned out. Great bass, clear sound for just a tiny speaker. Great for taking it anywhere.

I added my name and phone number to the speaker. Looked great on the website. You can hardly see the text in person. Pretty disappointed because my last JBL speaker got stolen.

Charge 6 does not include a charging cable. How petty.
Customer Support - 19 days ago
Thanks for your feedback. To reduce electronic waste, newer JBL products like the Charge 6 no longer include a charging cable, as they’re compatible with any standard USB-C cable. We appreciate your input and will pass it along to the team.jbl.com Originally posted on jbl.com

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
I have always been a fan of JBL products. I went from a Charge 3 to the Charge 6. The sound is great and I like that it has a few different sound settings you can choose from. The battery life is great at 28 hours. The build quality is top notch, it just feel's solid when you handle it. There is no doubt that this will last for years! My Charge 3 is still in great condition since I bought it in 2016, so I know the Charge 6 will last just as long.
Not good

Love the handle but that’s about where it ends. I had a charge 3 for YEARS. This new one doesn’t hold charge longer than 4-5 hours. Way to expensive to not perform well esp with their online description. Wouldn’t recommend.
Customer Support - 28 days ago
Thanks for your feedback. Our JBL Charge 6 has up to 28 hours of battery life. The published playtime is the maximum battery time you will get when listening to background levels. Depending on the volume and the source material, the battery playtime will be reduced, much like a phone battery when you brighten the screen. Please charge the battery to 100% and play music without bass boosted, and at a very low volume. If it lasts close to the up-to playtime, this means the battery is working fine. If the issue remains, please contact our customer support for further assistance.jbl.com Originally posted on jbl.com

Very nice speaker for the price but when compared to the Bose soundlink max there really is no comparison imo when it comes to the sound. Bose clearly beats this speaker out in all facets but you’ll pay for it.

My husband really loves the Charge 6. He had the JBL 5 but it was stolen. He has expressed the difference in the bass level being excellent.
