JBL Go 5 Ultra-Portable IP68 Waterproof & Drop-proof Speaker Purple (Open Box)

Louder Sound and Deeper Bass From a Palm-Sized Speaker

The JBL Go 5 is a palm-sized Bluetooth speaker that gives you louder JBL sound and deeper bass than the previous Go model, in a body built to handle water, dust and drops. You get up to 8 hours of play per charge, plus up to 2 more with JBL's extended-playtime mode.

This is an open-box unit, and it's backed by a 1-year vendor warranty. Stream from your phone over Bluetooth 6.0, or use the included USB-C cable for lossless playback of compatible content from supported apps and services. With the JBL Portable app, you can adjust sound with a 7-band EQ, pick ambient edge lighting themes and install updates.

Your phone's built-in speaker can play music, but the Go 5 gives you a dedicated 45mm driver and 4.8W of output in an IP68 waterproof and dust-proof speaker that's also drop-proof. When you want more sound, bump two Go 5 speakers together for left-right stereo with AirTouch, or link multiple JBL Auracast-enabled speakers for wider coverage.

Stereo pairing requires a second Go 5, and the compatible JBL EasySing Mic Mini is also sold separately. The speaker is made with recycled plastic and a recycled driver magnet. Choose from White, Black, Blue or Purple.

What Does “Open Box” Mean?

This product is listed as an Open Box item. Open Box items are typically considered excess inventory from store shelves. They usually have assorted stickers on the packaging and have been exposed to customer contact. In addition, since most of these items have been returned from retail stores back to the warehouse, the packaging sometimes shows signs of extra handling. These products will go through verification that they are still in new condition and put in clean packaging. The product comes with a [x]-day/year warranty.
