And my choice is still jbl go 4, I had all the ones you tried in this video, and go 4 remained my choice, great video 🤩

[@hotwheelshuntinguk]

10/10 video. Really enjoyed it!

[@d.hulsman3553]

In my experience the go 4 is a very good upgrade, especially the EQ adjustment. It gets better bass, and its just a very refined and good speaker. One thing to note though; I tried to connect the go 4 to my charge 5 and xtreme 3 (which are all on the latest software) via the app but then it says "not compatible" which is annoying but that is about the only negative thing about the speaker. Overall solid speaker for its price

[@BillyGarcia-kn8cp]

This bullshit I got the same the charge 5 and the extreme 3 too

[@emilien032]

I think they're not compatible it's because the Xtreme 3 and the Charge 5 got the "old" JBL Partyboost but the Go 4 got the new "Auracast", just like the Xtreme 4.

[@IDKYHM]

The go 4 got aura cast so can’t communicate with party boost speakers. The premium JBL extreme supports aura cast and partyboost.

[@__.trung._]

a better upgrade is a tribit stormbox micro 2

[@adamirfan3231]

@@__.trung._ I know but it just looks so ugly, if only it looks nicer I would definitely buy it.

[@johnnyvalle7623]

Nice video, I own a go3 and it's way better than I expected the I'd get the go4 if didn't have one

[@AlejandroSanchezDiez-qy1mh]

Do you know if the jbl Go 4 strap is removable? I loved carrying my jbl Go 1 with a langer and it seems that there is a hole for it if you put out the strap

[@LegendaryMaoMao20]

This is great! A cheap JBL speaker with good sound! Awesome! Please review the JBL Clip 5 next!! I love to see how it compares!!

[@enzocarranza]

great video man!!!

[@user-wq6hr9xi2n]

Nice vid, thanks

[@randomescu]

I found 2xgo4 at 20 euros each, new, to replace Flip Essential 4 as my portable speaker(s).
Very happy with it.
At home i use 2x Soundcore Motion+ . Usually with S23U and Tidal.

[@darrenwipf9868]

The Sony xb100 is king of bass and it's much louder now after using it for a long time

[@v3n0s]

I own sony xb-13 and is performing really well. I bought two of them (on an offer ) and they connect on stereo mode. Anyway it doesn’t distort at all the sound…

[@s4wilzon]

Try to review Soundcore glow mini. Better than the other small speakers

[@onlineaccount]

The sony xb100 is never 16 hours battery life, you need it on high volume to hear it when out and about and even in the home tbh. The clip 4 to me has a good sound for its size and a decent battery life and I found the go3 had a thin sound to it somI returned mine fairly quickly so will be interesting to get a go4 this week to try one

[@Usenowgamer]

The JBL Clip 5 is actually already out. I can buy it from JBL's website right now if I really wanted (at least here in the UK)! Looking forward to the review on it!

[@purelazymoon]

Please review sony ult field 1 and 7

[@ionthejohn1]

good job talking about them, you did well, but i believe you missed the part with each one decibels... anyway good job really good job. subscribtion from me

[@purelazymoon]

Jbl 4 form factor and better mids definitely gives it an edge over others..but I might skip it because I had very bad experience with go3 power button

[@timdiez3870]

I just found one on the side of the road in my town under smashed up hubcaps so freaking awesome it works Free Bee Better LoL ✌️🤣🔊👌🎆💯🎇

[@shaykraz3d]

Good video mate 👍

[@Skipeur-2]

Sony xb100 wooow incroyable meilleures enceinte

[@aedan2003]

The clip 5 is out!

[@Delta922]

I'd pick xb100 if it has the best bass sound.

[@gboy4300]

Price?

[@user-eq7eu4dc1p]

49€

[@earthreport26]

Sony sounds best with all equalizer settings off on your mobile

[@fse7794]

go 4 is better yes, but I wish they'd leave the old design

[@josejoseph6338]

xb100 still best

[@anijamed]

jbl wins in loudness, sony wins in sound quality if only sony improves the volume in its nxt iterarion then it will kill the go and clip series

[@optimus6858]

Qqq cool

[@mbu5371]

BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA

[@dangaynhsblitzkrieg4799]

clip 4 still better😂😂

[@stevethomas2285]

How about starting the video a second or two before you start speaking?

[@prokopyevilya]

😂😂😂

[@bloomvikung]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@felix_five]

So the Sony was better all round and offer more features

[@sappyjohnson]

It's garbage 😂

[@dirtattack1]

Tribit Stormbox micro 2 is much more better than JBL Mainstream go4 👎👎👎👎🤮🤮🤮🤮

[@sappyjohnson]

100x better
