Product details
Grip and groove
Easy to grab and easy to hold, the JBL Grip is the speaker that’s always within reach. The JBL Grip is powerful for its size. JBL Grip may be compact, but its pro sound is big—punchy bass and crystal-clear highs. Whether it’s setting the vibe for mindful morning stretches or soundtracking lazy beach days, the JBL Grip is our go-to. The built-in ambient light on the back panel adapts to the moment, so you can set the mood for chill date nights and spontaneous hangs. Use the convenient side-panel control button to switch between light themes, so the mood is always right whether you're winding down or turning up. Did we mention it’s super tough? The JBL Grip is built to handle anything. With an industry-leading IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating, it goes wherever we do. Its drop-proof design means it can survive a hard fall onto concrete—no party fouls here. All that, plus up to 14 hours of playtime with Playtime Boost. When friends roll through, we’re using Auracast™ to stereo pair two Grips for instant surround sound. Why stop there? We can connect as many JBL Auracast™-enabled speakers as we’ve got for an all-out sound experience. Solo chillin’ or vibing with the crew—the JBL Grip is as flexible as we are.
Features and Benefits
Bold JBL Pro Sound
The JBL Grip may be small enough to hold in one hand, but it packs
bold JBL Pro Sound. With AI Sound Boost, it analyzes music in real
time, using an algorithm to optimize output for bigger sound with
less distortion.
Up to 14 hours of playtime
Keep the mood going for 12 hours on a single charge—plus an extra
2 hours with Playtime Boost when the vibes are too good to stop.
Ambient light
The speaker’s back panel features an integrated ambient light with
unique themes and color options, so you can set the mood to match
your mix. Use the JBL Portable app to finetune the brightness and
lock in your preferred look.
Waterproof, dustproof, and drop-proof
We designed the JBL Grip to handle the bumps and bruises of
everyday fun. Along with its waterproof and dustproof IP68 rating,
it’s also drop-proof—built to keep playing even after a 1-meter drop
onto concrete.
Multi-speaker connection with Auracast™
Want to share the vibes with the crew? With Auracast™, we can
easily stereo pair two Grip speakers for a wider soundstage or
connect multiple JBL Auracast™-enabled speakers to fill the space
with the same playlist.
JBL Portable app
Customize the Grip’s sound with a 7-band EQ, light color options,
and intensity, and get updates and support directly from the JBL
Portable app. That way, we can always match the sound and vibe to
our mood, wherever we are.
Recycled plastic and fabric, plus FSC certified paper packaging
Built with post-consumer recycled plastic and fabric for the
speaker grille, so we get big sound with less impact to the planet.
It’s also packaged in FSC-certified paper printed with soy ink.
