- The JBL grip is cylindrical but smaller (and cheaper) than flip 7
- Bold jbl pro sound With a 16W output of 16W
- Atacost connectivity, IP68 waterproofing and tempting price label
If you are looking at the enviable alignment of JBL Bluetooth speakers with a critical eye, you could say that although the JBL Flip 7 is a grain banner of a portable speaker (and completely deserving of its place in the Tippy-Top of our best Bluetooth speakers guide), there is usually a gap between it and, for example, for example, for example, for example, for example, for example, for example, for example, for example, for example, for example, for example,, for example. JBL Clip 5, and the price of the gap, and has always been the price.
And that is why I am so happy to see the launch of the JBL Grip; He feels as if JBL had looked at his range and said: “We have something at $ 49.95 / £ 39.99 / AU $ 59.95 and we have something at $ 149 / £ 129 / AU $ 179. Can we get anything to divide the difference, something with a price of $ 99?”
And the JBL Grip is that speaker, with a price of $ 99 (so around £ 75 or au $ 150, although these prices are currently fortune tellers), or a direct rival for the splendid Ultimate Ears Wonders Wonderboom 4.
What about its dimensions? JBL tells us that the grip is “inspired by the proportions of a seftzer can”, but if that does not work immediately for you, think of those pre -checked cocktail cans or perhaps in the well -known energy drink that bears the name of a colorful male cow.
Control with the new JBL speaker of the city
The upper part of the Specification sheet for the GRIP JBL is the Audio Pro Sound tuning of JBL, a “16W output of 16W” more AI Sound Boost for “lower and more powerful and deep no distortion.”
You can match two speakers for stereo sound, or connect several speakers with aircasts. There is a rope hook integrated into the speaker to be easy to join a backpack or bicycle, for example, and its IP68 water construction, already dust of drops means that you will not have to worry about dropping up to 1.5 m deep, up to 30 minutes.
Endurance? You must obtain up to 12 hours of game time, plus 2 additional hours with the impulse of activated game time, which is more than acceptable for a speaker of this size.
My new favorite personal feature on grip speaker? An environmental light in the form of a pill but quite large in the posterior panel, so you can establish the environment to match its playlist with the Portable JBL application.
The GRIP JBL is now available for presale in the USA., With a price of $ 99.95 in JBL.comwith a more extensive launch scheduled for September 28, 2025. Color options? Of course: six outstanding finishes will arrive, including the classic black, white, audacious purple (which would be my favorite choice), red, blue and camouflage.
Will you join the ranks of our best waterproof speakers soon? The time (and the exhaustive testing process of PakGazette) will say it, but I really hope.
