Pros & Cons

Rich, juicy, loud, deep bass. Beats my 380 watt system in everything except loudness. Bass and clarity is the most impressive i've had.
The matte metallic finish of the jbl logo on the front looks dope. It feels very durable and well made.
The simplicity of partyboost is amazing. Love the convenience and price. They definitely justify their premium price.
Cons
Even when plugged in it fails to stay on and play music. Connectivity goes in and out and other phones can cancel it out. Bass is beyond a listening level due to distortion from the radiator.
Maybe half the price is respectable. Most likely won’t be purchasing from jbl again. Sadly it's just another company that looks at profits not quality.

Came charged so it was ready to go out of the box.
Competitiveness

It’s easy to want to grab the sides and it’s not good to push back on them when they are flexing or anytime really

They easily paired to one another over a bluetooth connection no wifi option as with sonos

Unfortunately and it’s a well known bug that’s been well written about all over the internet so your homework the speakers when paired cut out frequently causing skips in the song from the signal cutting out
