JBL Go 4 – Ultra-Portable Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker

The JBL Go 4 is a great sounding and highly portable Bluetooth ver 5.3 speaker. I have several other Bluetooth speakers, mostly by JBL. This one is very handy to pack with you daily, has good connection properties like distance from your phone or tablet, offers more utility than other choices like the JBL Clip in that it can stand up without support and offers great sound. The Go 4 is fully supported by the JBl Portable App with fully adjustable equalizer or a few pre defined options, and can be paired with another JBL Go or similarly supported JBL speakers. It sounds great on your desk, in the bathroom or out in nature. The small size makes it more in alignment with personal listening and clearly it’s not going to blow out your party like a larger Charge, Xtreme or Boombox model would, all of which are designed for party and group enjoyment.

I tested the Go 4 against an older Clip and found not much difference in sound quality but many more options to use it thanks to the free standing shape and highly portable / pocketable size and convenience to hang like the Clip using your own carabiner hook. Battery life is decent too. The biggest benefit of Go 4 over Clip 5 is $30 less in cost. I believe this little speaker is great.

We love the sound quality, durability, functionality and how easy it is to connect to any device! Worth EVERY DOLLAR if you’re looking for something small to use at games or other events! Love the variety of colors!

Sound quality is decent, but it’s a portable speaker and it’s nowhere near as good as my other bluetooth speakers (and they are very very old models). I wish it was a tad louder, but it will get the job done for what I purchased it for. I love that I can get it wet, it looks very well-made and durable, good sound quality for the size, and extremely lightweight and small and portable.

As an audio enthusiast, I’m always on the hunt for quality sound across various devices, from headphones to Bluetooth speakers.

The JBL Go 4 is an impressive speaker for its compact size. While it’s not the loudest option out there, it doesn’t need to be. Roughly the size of your hand, it still manages to deliver a surprising bass response that you can actually feel when you’re holding it.

One of its handy features is a strap that allows you to easily carry it around. This makes it perfect for leisurely walks in the neighborhood or small gatherings with friends—whether it’s for a card game or just hanging out. However, I wouldn’t recommend it for larger parties, as it’s better suited for more intimate settings. At $50, it offers fantastic bass for its size and is user-friendly and comfortable to transport.

As someone who collects speakers for various occasions, I primarily use the JBL Go 4 during my afternoon walks. It’s particularly enjoyable in the spring and fall, and I look forward to using it more this fall when the weather is just right.

While genres like heavy metal can get a bit distorted at higher volumes, this speaker performs well with audiobooks and softer music genres such as country, pop, and electronic.

I think the blue color is stunning; if you’re considering a color choice, I highly recommend it. This speaker also makes for a great gift for kids—perfect if you want to introduce them to audio products without spending too much, as it’s an affordable option that can withstand a bit of rough handling.

Overall, the JBL Go 4 is a fantastic portable Bluetooth speaker. It may not blow you away with its power, but if you’re looking for something compact that can get reasonably loud for a small gathering of two or three people, it’s a perfect choice.

This speaker comes in a very small package but it packs some nice sound and also has a good battery life. Very good speaker for the price and it’s great if your on the move.

The go 4 is for extreme portability, size of a large bar of soap
Very lightweight
Reasonably loud. No deep lows. More like mid range bass
The power button is nice and tucked.
I had a jbl clip 4 that frequently/unintentionally adjusted or turned off because buttons were out and pressed against bags.
Go 4 can easily provide volume in a noisy 12×12 area.
I use it for construction, on my toolbelt, lets me know when I get calls.
Reasonable battery life.
Jbl quality in a super small package.
If you want a jbl carry along, but more bass, maybe try the clip 5. It’s bigger with more wattage and does the wow factor for deep bass out of a clip carry.
The go 4 is personal audio while still able to hear what’s going on jobsite. A safe work alternative to ear buds. Super easy to carry/control.
Don’t expect it to do more than it should and you’ll choose the right tool for the job without being underpowered or overkill.

Prático para momentos do dia a dia, você leva na bolsa e já garante um som ambiente agradável.
Qualidade ótima como esperado da JBL.
