Reviews & Ratings
Im Lautsprecher-Test punkten die besten Bluetooth- und WLan-Geräte mit sattem Klang und einfacher Handhabung. Doch nur wenige bieten dieses Gesamtpaket. Natürlich klingender Bass, gut hörbare Details und ausgewogener, lebendiger Sound – so sollte der perfekte Lautsprecher klingen...
- Ultra-portable and lightweight
- Auracast function
- Elegant design
- The sound leaves something to be desired

The JBL Go 4 is one of the smallest Bluetooth speakers on the market, packed with functions and very robust. The sound is what you'd expect: flat and bland, but given the dimensions, it's still fine for those who want to listen at a lower volume.

The small speaker has an appealing design, is extremely robust (and waterproof) and sounds well above its size - but you shouldn't expect miracles. Larger speakers sound far better...

The Go 4 from JBL is the smallest and cheapest of those tested, and it shows. The sound is tinny, voices are sometimes croaky and there is virtually no trace of bass. The lightest Bluetooth speaker in the test fails above all in terms of battery life: in several runs, it only lasted for 3.5 hours each and thus only for very short trips...
