What's not so good about the JBL Boombox 3?
The first negative is the price: it’s high. The JBL Boombox 2 was the same price before, but now it’s $100 USD cheaper, which feels a lot more reasonable, but also steep nonetheless. Another noticeable issue I have with the JBL Boombox 3 is how large and heavy it is. I definitely struggle to find space to store it in my small apartment, and it’s not the easiest object to carry around. The handle helps, but if you plan to lug this speaker around with you, you may struggle a bit.
The JBL Boombox 3 apparently has Bluetooth multipoint, but I can’t get it to work. I can’t connect two devices to the speaker at once—when I try, it just disconnects from the first. This results in a clunky switching process, as opposed to the smooth, fast switching multipoint usually brings with it. The issue is the same regardless of what kind of device I use.
Lastly, while the app is useful overall, the equalizer is really simple and doesn’t allow for more granular EQ customization. It’s only a three-band equalizer and it doesn’t specify frequencies beyond “bass,” “mid,” and “treble.” It would be nice to have more specific customization options, as well as presets to choose from.
