Get the best connectivity and the best quality now with Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi lets you connect to the Internet or use your phone while streaming music to your speaker. The music doesn’t have to stop when you leave the room or device – Wi-Fi gives you better coverage so you can take your speaker anywhere in the house. Or switch to Bluetooth when you’re on the go for more flexibility.
Bluetooth Speaker JBl Charge 5 now with Wi-Fi
Want crystal clear sound wherever you are? Auto-tuning automatically detects when you’re in a new environment, so you can relax knowing the sound is optimized whether you’re listening indoors or out. Built-in AirPlay 2, Alexa MRM and Chromecast let you connect and play your favorite music services.
With up to 20 hours of playback on the Charge 5 Wi-Fi and 24 hours on the Boombox 3 Wi-Fi, you’ll be able to unplug and party all night long. The new Boombox 3 Wi-Fi is also JBL’s first portable speaker to feature Dolby Atmos technology for a more immersive and expansive audio experience.
“At JBL, sound is at the core of our brand, but we also recognize the importance of technology and are constantly striving to improve the user experience for our fans. With the launch of our new JBL Boombox 3 Wi-Fi and Charge 5 Wi-Fi speakers, we are excited to offer significant improvements in both sound and technology. Wi-Fi not only adds connectivity, but also unlocks new audio formats such as Dolby Atmos. These speakers also join our growing line of eco-friendly audio products, something we are passionate about.”
