A small speaker from the famous audio brand Harman Kardon is designed for outings into nature. This usage scenario is hinted at by the very name of the model, in which the prefix Clip appears, indicating the presence of an ear with a carabiner on the body of the device for attaching a portable speaker to a backpack, tent or any other similar place.

sound

The speaker inherited the design and characteristics from its predecessor in the face of the JBL Clip. Only water protection has been added, which allows you to use the device in the rain or take it with you when rafting down the river. As for its modest size, the speaker produces high-quality sound with a good level of bass and treble. The volume margin is also large — when the speaker is located at a distance of about 5 m from the interlocutor, the latter will have to shout already at 70% of the maximum value. Keep in mind that wheezing may occur at high volume levels.

Connect

The power of the speaker, covered with a convex metal grille, is 3.2 watts. In addition to playing music, it can also act as a speakerphone (hands-free when talking on a mobile phone). The speaker connects to other gadgets via Bluetooth or an integrated AUX cable (for those devices that do not support wireless connections).

battery life

One charge of the built-in battery with a capacity of 600 mAh is enough for 4-5 hours of continuous music playback. For picnics or short trips to nature, battery life is quite enough, and for long hikes, a short time for fully charging the battery plays into the hands — its tanks are filled up to 100% in just one hour.

On nature

Affordable cost paired with light weight, compact dimensions, high sound quality and water protection make the speaker a very attractive option for outdoor enthusiasts. There is no particular point in buying it for home use — among the products of the JBL brand there are other models that are more oriented for indoor use.
