So, the JBL Xtreme 4 has some pretty impressive battery life, according to what we've found. The manufacturer describes it as having up to 24 hours of playtime on a single charge, which is pretty sweet for road trips or outdoor hangouts when you need your tunes to keep going.
There's also a cool feature where the USB-C charging option lets the speaker act as a power bank. Perfect for when your phone’s about to die in the middle of your camping playlist, right?
Just a heads up, though, from what we've gathered, there have been a few complaints about the charging process. Some folks noticed issues with the chargers that come with the speaker. If that happens, switching to a different USB-C cable usually fixes it, though charging can be a bit slower.
It might be smart to test the charging straight away and maybe have a reliable third-party cable ready, just in case.
Even with these hiccups, the charging problems seem to be pretty rare. Most people are really happy with the JBL Xtreme 4's battery life, especially with the long playtime and power bank feature.
Just remember, actual battery life can change depending on the volume and other features you're using.
All in all, if you need a speaker with long-lasting battery life, the JBL Xtreme 4 seems to do the job. Just keep an eye on the charger and consider having a backup cable handy.
