Description

With the legendary JBL Original Pro sound and deep bass of the portable & Bluetooth® speaker JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi, you won't miss a beat. 

Stream music wherever you are via Wi-Fi, while simultaneously using your phone. Is your phone ringing or are you scrolling through social media? Your music won't stop. Easily switch to Bluetooth and continue enjoying endless hours of music whether you're outside or at home.

The JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi, with its waterproof and dustproof design, offers 20 hours of battery life so you won't run out of power, and you can also charge your devices whether you're walking in the park or dancing with friends around the pool. Stream your favorite music via AirPlay, Alexa Multi-Room Music, Chromecast built-in™, and Spotify Connect. Enjoy your music from Internet radio, podcasts in high resolution.

The JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi is made from recyclable materials and features eco-friendly packaging to help you make the world a little greener in your own way.

JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi vs JBL Charge 5

The fundamental difference between the JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi and the JBL Charge 5 is connectivity and sound quality. The Wi-Fi model adds the ability to connect to a home network, supporting protocols such as AirPlay 2, Chromecast built-in™, and Spotify Connect. This allows streaming of high-resolution (Hi-Res Audio) music, theoretically offering better sound quality than the standard Bluetooth 5.1 of the regular Charge 5. Additionally, streaming via Wi-Fi ensures uninterrupted listening, as calls or notifications on your phone do not interrupt the music. Finally, the Wi-Fi model features an almost double capacity battery of 14,100mAh compared to 7,500 mAh, maintaining the same great 20-hour autonomy, but with larger energy reserves.

Another significant difference concerns the speaker pairing function and the ecosystem. The classic Charge 5 uses PartyBoost technology to connect with other compatible JBL portable speakers. In contrast, the Charge 5 Wi-Fi does not support PartyBoost. Instead, it uses the new JBL One App to connect and group only with other speakers that have Wi-Fi capability (multi-room). Therefore, the choice depends on whether the user desires the superior sound quality and smart home features of the Wi-Fi model or the simple, proven Bluetooth connection and compatibility with the wide PartyBoost ecosystem of the Standard model.

Bold JBL Original Pro Sound with Deep Bass

Equipped with an extended range driver, a separate tweeter, and two passive bass radiators, you can enjoy the unique, characteristically bass-heavy sound of JBL (JBL Original Pro Sound) for unlimited fun. Enjoy powerful, clear, and bass-rich sound wherever you are!

20 hours of playback

The built-in battery in the JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi offers up to 20 hours of playback (fully charges in 6 hours). Thanks to the powerbank function, you can simultaneously charge your phone, ensuring that your party lasts all night without interruptions!

Bluetooth® and WiFi

Stream music from your Bluetooth®-enabled device (e.g., phone, tablet) or if the party is at home, you can connect the speaker to the local WiFi network using the JBL ONE app.

Built-in Wi-Fi with AirPlay, Alexa Multi-Room Music, Chromecast built-in™, and Spotify Connect

Listen to all the music you love. The JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi provides the convenience and flexibility of a seamless open streaming ecosystem that supports a wide variety of services. Stream music via AirPlay, Alexa Multi-Room Music, Chromecast built-in™, and Spotify Connect. Enjoy all your favorite audio content, internet radio, and podcasts.

Waterproof and dustproof

The IP67 water and dust protection of the JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi ensures that the portable speaker can withstand almost any environment, from a pool party to a seaside picnic.

Get Activated with the Built-in Powerbank

    No lies, it is a quality, well-made product with exceptional sound. Bass, clarity, and precision, superior to a typical speaker of this category. However, the price is a bit steep, it could have been a little better.

    I bought it for its capabilities, but the truth is that I expected more. Its battery does last quite a bit, but I had issues with its network connectivity, although the Bluetooth is fine. Even though it's a WiFi version, it could do more for its price. It doesn't connect directly with Alexa, since the JBL One app doesn't have a direct connection with Spotify and Alexa. It works fine with Google, though, as you can cast to the speaker from other music apps. The sound, overall, is okay, but it could be better.
