The JBL Charge 5 is a portable Bluetooth speaker with a built-in power bank, IP67 dust and water resistance, and roughly 20 hours of playtime. Its single woofer and dual passive radiators give it strong bass for its size, and Bluetooth 5.0 keeps the connection stable. It suits people who want a rugged outdoor speaker that can also top up a phone. Against the Charge 4 it adds dust proofing and a tweeter for clearer highs, but it still lacks an aux input and a strap.

Owners rate the Charge 5 highly for loud, bass-forward sound, long battery life and real water and dust protection. Common complaints are its weight, the lack of an aux input and bass that muddies the mids at top volume.
