Jawbone Jambox

The Aliph Jawbone Jambox Bluetooth speaker has a great feature set and packs a lot of punch considering its size, but it's still a bit pricey for a tiny speaker.

Solid, unique design. Easy to use. Supports apps.

Middling sound quality still can't compare to most iPod docks of the same price.

Jawbone Big Jambox

Doubles as a speakerphone. Good sound quality with powerful low end for its size. Clear voice quality. Long battery life.

Bass distorts slightly at high volumes.

The Jawbone Big Jambox doesn't offer the best audio quality among portable Bluetooth speakers, but its long battery life, speakerphone features, and generally solid sound make it worth a listen.

Jawbone Jambox with LiveAudio review

We've been fans of the Jawbone Jambox ever since its late 2010 launch. Although its $200 price tag is sure to cause a double-take, living with a Jambox for the last six months made me a believer in...

Binaural recordings sound great ; Switching LiveAudio on and off is a snap ; Jambox speaker is a mighty tyke

LiveAudio doesn't work with all music ; LiveAudio softens volume and dynamic range on some tracks ; No easy way to determine if a track will benefit from LiveAudio

Unfortunately, the effect only works on tracks recorded with three-dimensional binaural listening in mind

Jawbone Jambox review: Jawbone Jambox

Jawbone Jambox

The ; is a rechargeable Bluetooth speaker with advanced features, a stunning design, and a balanced sound that defies its small, convenient size.

The Jambox isn't cheap and the money could buy a larger, wired speaker with superior sound.

The Jambox is the most stylish portable speaker we've seen, with features and sound quality you won't find in comparable compact designs.

Jawbone JAMBOX Portable Wireless Speaker Review

On a recent visit to an Apple store, Jawbone's JAMBOX caught my eye. Could this little dynamo offer me the sound quality and convenient size I have been looking for to fill my hotel rooms with music?

Great sound quality ; Plays loud

Annoying low battery messages ; Directional ; Expensive

Bluetooth speakers – like headsets – can be pretty inexpensive these days, and so manufacturers need to offer something significantly more interesting if they want to charge a premium. The Jawbone JAMBOX’s RRP of $199 is no small amount, but the payoff...
