JBL GO bluetooth speaker review

I just want to share my insights about the JBL GO Bluetooth speaker by Harman Kardon. Late last year i was doing some window shopping at a mall when i heard this loud music as i pass by into a tech shop. there's a lot of people gathering in that tech shop, out of my curiousity i checked whats happening and i was shocked to what i saw. The loud music that i'm hearing is from a very small bluetooth speaker it has a dimension of 68.3 x 82.7 x 30.8 (mm) yes!! its that small and it only weighs 130g. And I'm like "what??" so I decided to test it on my own and played a couple of tracks in it. I loved how it sounds, the audio is so clear specially for the vocals. So I purchased one for 1,600 pesos, and i tested it the whole day and comparing it to the other bluetooth speaker that i have. When i compared a couple of bluetooth speakers to the JBL GO one thing that makes it stand out is its ability to deliver high quality audio despite of its size, and it has a very good design. You can put the speaker any place u want it to be because the design is like a mini sound box so there is no problem at all in putting the speaker to any surface, plus you can hang the speaker to your back pack, motorbike etc. if you are traveling because it has a place where you can put a clip for you to hang it. I really loved this speaker because of its quality the only down side of this speaker is that it struggle on secondary bass specially for EDM music genres, but i don't mind it because i understand that JBL has to cut some corners for the features because of its size, besides other than the EDM genres the speaker works very very well. The JBL GO can play up to 5 hours of full volume music (play time varies by volume and audio content) it can go up to 9 hours of play time in a normal volume level charging time of the device is only 1.5 hours it uses bluetooth version 4.1 it supports A2DP V1.2, AVRCP V1.4, HFP V1.6, HSP V1.2 rated power is 3.0W and one thing i like about the speaker is that it has a 3.5mm audio jack for auxiliary audio meaning you can use the speaker even without bluetooth by means of audio cable and the cool thing about it is that it can play simultaneous with another speaker if you connect them both using a 3.5mm audio cable. Aside from that you can use the speaker in making and receiving calls while connected via bluetooth and i was so amazed because the built in microphone of the speaker has noise cancelling meaning you are very clear at the other end of the line. So as an overall review i will give JBL GO a 4 star rating because its a pretty decent speaker it can easily fill up a room by its clear audio and fantastic beat. Really guys if you have one of these speakers you'll be surprised by the sound it produces despite of its size, by the way the speaker has a variety of colors; it has black(which i own), blue, teal, yellow, gray, red, and orange. You wont regret having this speaker as it performs really well.

Thank you for taking the time in reading i hope you find this very informative.
