JBL's newest speaker ushers in a new price category, appealing to broader consumer needs


The JBL Grip is the brand's latest compact, portable speaker that's the size of a seltzer can.

The Grip also features up to 14 hours of playtime, JBL's proprietary AI Sound Boost, an ambient light panel, an IP68 dust and waterproof rating, and Bluetooth Auracast. However, JBL fitted the Grip with an ambient light panel that can be customized in the app to make the speaker more appealing to indoor listeners. The Grip has more dust protection and power than the Clip 5, but doesn't feature the lossless audio quality option found in the Flip 7.
