Is the JBL Charge 5 waterproof?

Yes. It is rated IP67, so it survives splashes, rain and brief immersion, and it is dustproof.

Can it charge my phone?

Yes. The built-in powerbank charges devices over USB, using the speaker's battery.

Does it work with the JBL app?

Yes. The JBL Portable app lets you adjust EQ and use PartyBoost to pair compatible JBL speakers.

Is it worth it over the Charge 4?

The Charge 5 adds a separate tweeter, IP67 instead of IPX7 and USB-C. If you already own a Charge 4, the upgrade is modest.

The speaker, a USB-C cable, a quick-start guide, a safety sheet and a warranty card. No wall charger is included.

Can it connect to two phones at once?

Yes. It pairs wirelessly with up to two smartphones or tablets, so two people can take turns playing.
