The newest iteration of JBL’s Charge Bluetooth speaker series, the Charge 4 represents everything we know and love about JBL and then some: rich, room-filling sound, impressive durability, and functional versatility. Read on to learn more about how the Charge 4 can get your get-togethers jiving, jumping, and bopping. And then enter this contest for a chance to win a JBL Charge 4 of your very own. We’ve got four to give away!

Parties are good for your overall health

I’m no doctor, and although I’ve seen my share of TED Talks, I’ll ask you to please take my findings with a grain of salt. But in my 32 years on this planet, one thing seems more and more evident: A happy life = better health. Now, there are a multitude of components that comprise a happy life, but the more I read the literature and watch the videos, I’m convinced that one event combines more than a couple of these components: a party. My definition of party, by the way, is two or more people coming together for the purpose of enjoying food, entertainment, and each other’s company. I’m not just talking about a 20-hour group rager, although I don’t disapprove of those kinds of get-togethers either (in moderation.)

Here’s why I believe parties are good for your health:

  1. Social: Loneliness creates mental health issues and impacts longevity. A party isn’t just about letting loose, it’s a ritual of belonging: people come together to connect with and be a part of their community.
  2. Music: Music changes your perspective and transforms your mood. It improves your blood circulation and lowers your levels of stress-related hormones, such as cortisol. Music also strengthens emotional regulation and promotes benefits in attention and memory.
  3. Dancing: Not just a great cardiovascular workout, dancing is like a visit to the gym—but fun! Dancing strengthens bones and muscles, improves balance, and even staves off illnesses. You don’t have to be a phenomenal dancer to reap the benefits, you just have to move your body to the beat!
A good party doesn’t have to incorporate all three of these components, but a great party usually does. All you need is a select soundtrack and a speaker that pumps out the playlists with enough power to do each song justice. That’s where Charge 4 enters the narrative.

JBL Charge 4 makes a good time great

Charge 4 is just the ticket for planned parties, impromptu get-togethers, and chillaxing hangouts. It pairs with your smartphone for wireless Bluetooth streaming, and can even connect to another smartphone at the same time, so you can share DJ responsibilities with a friend. A specialized driver and dual bass radiators deliver full spectrum sound that immerses everyone in the anthems that are sure to get them moving and having a great time.
Charge 4 is made to go where you go. Think about it. It’s easier to bring great audio to the people than to bring the people to great audio, which means portable speakers like Charge 4 make it easier than ever to get a great party started. Gentle handling is fine, but Charge 4 has Keith-Richards-like longevity. This road dog will survive the rough-and-tumble of an on-the-go lifestyle filled with parties in different places. It can even withstand a plunge in the pool or having a glass of water thrown in its face!
Twenty hours of playtime means this Bluetooth speaker also possesses enough stamina to go the distance at one of those non-stop ragers I mentioned earlier. And because all our music is accessed on our smartphones these days, JBL Charge 4 works double duty as a power bank, so you can connect your phone via USB and charge while your songs play.
You can sync up to 100 JBL speakers when you want to amp up the sound to epic proportions, so if any of your friends own a JBL speaker that’s Connect+ enabled, ask them to bring it along. Now you’ve got a great party on your hands!

  3. Definitely music!! To be able to have the JBL speaker available to use anywhere at anytime would be incredible!

  11. Definitely music! I want to win one so our morning kitchen parties have better sound!! My daughter and I have the little clock radio in the kitchen on every morning while making lunches and eating breakfast…we often break into dance! Great way to start the day. That’s about all the partying I do these days:)

  13. Music because I could use it to play music during our Baha’i feasts to bring a more spiritual feeling to the feast

  16. The social element is the most important to me. Music definitely kicks it up a notch, but what is a party without friends?

  22. Music, because without music – regardless of how soft or heavy it is – is what makes the party, along with great guests!

  24. Social – and just social media doesn’t count. Gotta get face to face sometimes, catch up with friends, folks! Would love a Charge 4.

  25. Dancing is most important to me as I have 2 small children who love to have dance parties! It is an excellent way to work our muscles and have fun too!

  26. MUSIC IS MY THING AND IF THE JBL CHARGE 4 SPEEKER IS THE ANSWER FOR A BETTER QUALITY SOUND……BRING IT
    I LOVE THE SOUND OF GOOD MUSIC

  28. Dancing requires good sounding music so you can lose yourself into it. I’m think this speaker will do the trick.

  31. Social is the most important to me and JBL Charge 4 can and will enhance it by being able to share the best tunes to all!

  32. Omg this would be awesome all my music. On my phone but the speaker sucks on it so it be nice to hear when we’re having a card game night… Ooo yawould love to win this

  34. Music is the most important part. You can chill in the corner for a break if you want while enjoying tunes, or it can make the life of the party with a group of friends.

  37. Music’s most important by far. Some people will dance to anything and that kind of exercise is fine, but who want;s to socialize with prople with bad taste?

  44. Music is most important for me. It is soothing, relaxing, enjoyable , I listen to it while I am doing other things, like cooking, housework, driving…endless opportunities.

  46. music is very important at parties and this speaker with dual bass radiators would deliver full spectrum sound

  47. Music- When I hear music I love, then I relax and forget health problems I have – I feel free and comforted and it takes me on a journey up and away from the busy times in life . It re-news my strength and willingness to move and get up and do something!

  50. Dancing is for me as we are currently taking lessons and this would help us practice anywhere we go
