JBL Charge review

The last time we checked out a portable speaker from JBL, the $100 Flip, we were pretty much blown away by the small speaker’s big-league blast of sound. The Flip easily filled our test room with its concise, detailed sound signature, and its exterior design was a refreshing break from the ritual rectangles we’ve grown accustomed to. The only real issue we had with the speaker was its mediocre 6-hour rechargeable battery life.
