hi and welcome please let me introduce the brand-new JBL charge 3 maybe you remember last year I already presented the JBL extreme and I think it became something like a class leader for the larger portable speaker market now the JBL charge 3 will probably again turn the smaller class upside down like the JBL extreme did as you can see this is the JV a charge - so the charge 3 is a bit larger but still pretty compact it gained also new features one of them being completely waterproof so tossing it into water shouldn't do anything it should still work well it can charge external devices just like the old version did and new of course is JBL connect so it can connect to another one wirelessly for stereo it can also connect with the JBL extreme with the JBL pulse 2 and the JBL flip 3 and i think it's a really great sounding device i mean it's not what I would call for analytical critical listening but take it outdoors toss it into the rucksack put it into sand and crank some tunes and it should do the trick I mean it's really loud it's much louder than that JBL charge - we will test this later on with a short track and I think it sounds great at maximum and what I also think is that it already scratches a bit at the higher class at the larger class like they both sounding 3 for example the Huey mega boom which usually costs twice as much the JBL charge 3 should cost 149 the original price for the mega boom is 299 although the price went down lately maybe nobody wanted to buy it no I'm joking but will you of course compare it against some other speakers like the maybe UE boom but I don't think this can compete so I will probably put it directly against their mega boom I will put it if of course against the Bose Soundlink mini - also the larger both sounding 3 we will have a listen against a charge tool for everyone who wants to know how much better the new unit is and what surprised me really a lot is how balanced it sounds compared to the JBL judge tool we all know that the charge too has quite a bit boosted bass and lots of treble and at higher levels it starts to compress so the sound is not really loud but simply you get this pumping effect but it sounds much more balanced now at low levels all the bass heads maybe even a bit disappointed because it doesn't have this this I don't know this drive at low levels but crank it a bit higher when the JBL charge to already struggles and this goes still pretty strong of course it cannot compete with the JBL extreme then the base of the extreme is much more boosted this is really balanced I was surprised to hear that JBL rather unit for a flatter response not this Bumi smiley bass treble sound but really nice and yeah I think this thing will definitely turn the entire Bluetooth speaker market upside down of course I would like to show you how it sounds against the JBL charge too when both played maximum so please put up your headphones and we will have a short listen please put up your headphones noise this is binaural recording I will place them here the charge 2 is already playing at maximum while the JBL charge 3 is at about 2/3 I'm starting with the charge 2 first you can already hear because volume pumping the church 3 and I will start increasing volume this is maximum now the charge - yeah this is quite a difference I think you are as impressed as I was when I heard it the first time of course this was not meant to be any kind of full review just the very first trod impression and to give you an idea what to expect from the new version compared to the old JBL charge - which is so popular of course many more comparisons will be coming also against the JBL extreme so please be patient a little bit stay tuned for more have a nice time and bye bye
