Got this one 7 years ago as bthday gift. Still alive, working great. Survived alot of things, as mud, dropping from 5 meters on asphalt. Still enjoying it, and makes me happy.

I recently bought this to use in a vehicle that has no Bluetooth capabilities, so my intention was to use it for music streaming and map/street-type navigation apps audio. It does the job perfectly for both! I charged it fully out of the box. It took roughly 2.5 hours, and four days later I am still at 70%. (Great battery life and I only had the volume at 50%). Also, I found that my iPhone displays the battery life. I have not fully explored speaker phone function to comment to those needing this, but I do find the sound to be slightly less “perfect” than my music and navigation audio. Overall, I am extremely pleased with my decision to buy the Clip3 versus the other Bluetooth speakers I was looking at, including others made by JBL. It’s small, yet sturdy. It has very full sound even though I had read there are no bass controls. You can stream music indoors, outdoors, and in your vehicle flawlessly. This is a big device at a reasonable price.

I just bought this, opened it, and tried to charge it (24 hours) and connect (isn’t recognized). The red light would not turn off, even though I tried to reset it as per instructions in some of the reviews and even when it’s unplugged. I changed charging hubs and tried different cables. Nothing works. Now what? Another tankful of gas and wasted time…
