JBL Go 5 Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Yellow (JBLGO5YEL) is rated 4.8 out of 5 by 16.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing sound for a carry on speaker [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] JBL Go 5, I own many JBL speakers. Including the large ones, this JBL Go 5 is a small easy to carry. Sound is very good, outside and inside, connected easily to my Pixel phone and JBL android app to manage the speaker is easy to set up. For the one who likes lights in the speaker, u can set different lights from the app... Bluetooth connection and you can also connect another same speaker as a group (I did not try it) Charging it is a USB-C cable same as Android pixel phone, speaker came with no cable. This is not a Google smart speaker as there is no wifi so you cannot ask it to play. Overall, amazing JBL sound for pocket size speaker

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great sound, No Setup effort and fun light effect [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Once I got JBL Go 5 bluetooth speaker and was impressed by how easy it was to use right out of the box - no setup required. It connected instantly via bluetooth, and the sound quality was surprisingly powerful for such a compact device. The design is elegant, making it easy to carry anywhere. One of my favorite feature is synchronized light effects that move with the music, adding a fun and impressive touch. Overall, I really liked it and definitely would make a great gift for people of all ages.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from sound quality improvement So i tested the jbl go 5 before it was even out and i have to say that it does sound better than the go 4 by a big enough difference, i haven't tested the battery life yet but seems like its similar to the go 4. The go 5 really worth it

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very compact but still delivers great sound for th [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great little speaker , sound improvement over the go 4 is noticeable. More clear highs and more punchy bass. I really like how they added the LED strobe lights to it. I also like how the JBL is outlined just stands out more and I enjoy the look of it. Weight is about the same as the go 4 with it just being a little more bigger but not by much at all. Still is very portable and you can pretty much fit it anywhere you want to stick it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from JBL Signature sound in a condensed tiny unit Large [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this little speaker with kighty sound. Messed with the equalizer quite a bit and was amused and impressed at how punchy and clear it can get. Love hearing my music on the go and this is light enough to carry around and bring sound where I want to like on my bike rides. I think people would like this as it pairs with their older JBL models with auracast with this new AirTouch technology and the design is sleek.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from This JBL portable speaker is loud, portable, durab [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve loved using the JBl Go 5, it gets pretty loud for its portable size, very easy to carry and control. I’ve taken it to picnics as well as hikes, it’s fairly easy to setup and navigate. The best feature for me would be the fact that you can link multiple JBL Auracast enabled speakers together which makes the whole experience fun and immersive. Cheers to yet another great JBL product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Nice Speaker This speaker is very good! Sound is very good and speaker is durable and portable. Just like all of my other JBL speakers, it starts right up and already starts trying to connect to my phone. The battery is very nice and the lights make the speaker look way cooler than it already is! I definitely recommend buying this
