There are some Christmas gift ideas that will never change. As a Gen Zer, a portable speaker was definitely on my Christmas wish list back then, and it’s an item I still use years after I first received it. Portable speakers are especially great for on-the-go sound and activities like camping, hiking, and the beach. In my personal opinion, Sony, JBL, and Beats have long dominated the market for popular portable options, and the Clip 5 is the latest iteration of JBL’s classic clippable portable speaker.
This is a perfect gift not only for teenagers and college students, but also for music lovers. Additionally, we’ve already seen sales going on ahead of Black Friday, and we expect it to drop to around $50 again. Several colors are also available to suit everyone’s taste.
Also: One of the best portable speakers I’ve tested, delivers impressive sound
ZDNET expert Jack Wallen tested the Clip 5 speakers in November and was thoroughly impressed. “When it comes to Bluetooth speakers, smaller size usually means smaller sound, unless it’s the JBL Clip 5, which produces surprisingly powerful audio,” Warren says. “I really appreciate JBL Sound.”
