Is the JBL Charge 6 worth it over the Charge 5?

The Charge 6 adds a dedicated tweeter, Auracast and an IP68 rating over the Charge 5, so it is the better pick if you want clearer highs and multi-speaker linking. The Charge 5 remains smaller and lighter.

Can the Charge 6 charge my phone?

Yes. Its USB-C port works as a powerbank output, drawing on the 34Wh battery to charge a phone or other device.

How waterproof is it?

It carries an IP68 rating for dust and water, so splashes, rain and brief immersion are fine. JBL rates operation up to 113°F.

How many hours does the battery last?

JBL rates up to 24 hours of playtime, plus about 4 more with Playtime Boost, for up to 28 hours total. A full charge takes about 3 hours.

What is Auracast and do I need it?

Auracast lets you link several compatible JBL speakers into one audio stream. It is useful for parties or large spaces; a single speaker works fine without it.

Does it have a microphone for calls?

No. The Charge 6 has no built-in mic, so it is for music playback, not speakerphone calls.
