JBL's larger Bluetooth speakers typically bring the bass and pump out high volume levels. Another thing the company is particularly good at is building tiny speakers that are easily portable and can get relatively loud (and tossed around) without any real issues. The $59.95 Clip 3 continues where previous Clips left off, in that regard—if there's any real complaint here, it's that sonically, nothing seems to have advanced all that much since the Clip 2. But below $60, you're simply not going to find much bass depth, and there's plenty of bass vibration here to make it feel like there's some low-end. For the size and price, the Clip 3 is a reliable summer sidekick that can latch onto a variety of surfaces and pump out solid audio performance. Design Measuring 5.4 by 3.8 by 1.8 inches (HWD), the 7.4-ounce Clip 3 is available in a wide range of colors—eleven hues, including standard black or white, along with flashier options like camo, teal, or mustard yellow.

We've been fans of earlier JBL Clip mini Bluetooth speakers, and the new Clip 3 ($60, £50, AU$80) features some significant design modifications that clearly distinguish it from its predecessor, the Clip 2.
The JBL Clip 3 is a better-sounding version of one of our favorite micro Bluetooth speakers.
The JBL Clip 3 offers improved sound and battery life in a more durable design than its predecessor; It's fully waterproof and sounds very good for its small size; The integrated carabiner allows you to clip the speaker to a bag or hang it from a peg.
It's a tad larger and heavier than the Clip 2; which is still available at a lower price.

The JBL Soundgear is a wearable Bluetooth speaker that delivers a solid audio experience, but it can occasionally distort on bass-heavy tracks.
Powerful, loud audio performance with crisp highs and rich lows; Solid stereo separation; Easy to operate.
Can distort on deep bass; Vibrations might annoy some wearers; Rigid build is awkward to place around neck at first.
Image 1 of 8 JBL is no novice when it comes to creating sound systems. It’s been in the game for nearly 70 years, manufacturing professional-grade speakers alongside consumer products.
