I have the JBL Charge 3 and the JBL Boombox as well as this JBL Xtreme2 and they all serve their purposes for me. The charge 3 is for personal on the go music (kayaking/biking), the boombox is for larger louder outdoor gatherings.
The Xtreme2 is truly the best dynamic/full/clear sounding speaker, it's exceptional for listening to moderate to low volumes, where most personal speakers fail. We use it mostly indoors or outside on the deck if it's just my wife and I. You can actually hear the stereo separation which is unusual for these small speakers.
The Unit is well built, nice looking (IMO), and lasts a very long time per battery charge.
ALSO NOTE: I returned the first one I bought because I did the firmware update (which you can not revert back from) on the original Unit. This, IMO ruined the beautiful sound. I confirmed with Best Buy that you cannot go back to the original firmware once updated, and was advised to return the unit if I was unhappy with it, which I did.
I then purchased another unit and left it alone, no updates, and it is now my favorite, best sounding bluetooth speaker ever.
Although some people say the Xtreme2's volume doesn't go loud enough, I believe it's plenty loud, and NEVER distorts even at full volume.
If I need Louder Volume, I have the Boombox for Ultra Loud Volumes, but It's the Xtreme2 that gives the most true, clear, full sound, and is the most used speaker of my JBL family.

I bought this speaker to bring with me on a family trip and we used it the entire weekend! It was very easy to pair anyone's phone with it, and the sound quality was superb! You can actually watch the woofers vibrate with the base on the sides, and the included strap makes it very portable!

I use this a lot actually, it’s a substitute for my car radio since it stopped working after someone did a faulty jump. Music sounds better through this than the car’s sound system honestly. People don’t realize it’s coming from it when they’re riding with me until I go to turn it off. High quality speaker that lasts for hours! I also like the strap that comes with it because it had some weight to it for sure. Only con I could think of is it’s hard to move the little rubber cover over where you plug it in to charge it sometimes.

I’ve bought many Bluetooth speakers in the past for work and always with they could go louder and have more bass. This has great mids and deep bass especially for its size. It shocks me sometimes in my excavator when in jamming out. Is spendy but you get what you pay for. Battery lasts all day!

So far the speaker is a great speaker I’ve only had it for a few days so far but I’ve had other JBL products and know that they’re really good products the only thing is it’s a little heavy but the build quality is very good. I also really like the carrying strap that it comes with.

Fantastic sound for a portable, one of the best I've ever owned. Definitely well-built; this thing is solid and a little on the heavy side, which is good. Lows, mids and highs are good out of the box, and the app allows you to further adjust the sound to your preference. It even comes with a sturdy shoulder strap. An excellent value at $199.

The sound quality on this speaker is by far the most powerful sound I've heard from and Bluetooth speaker. It has both treble and bass, which neither downs the other out. The strap that comes with it makes it so much more nicer and convenient. It almost bring back the early 2000s, and or 90s when boom boxes where the fad. Except this comes with an ergonomic strap that allows for more comfort and ease when carrying around. This is a must have for any Bluetooth speaker enthusiast. And I highly recommend this product when ever anyone asks me about Bluetooth speakers.
