I bought this JBL Clip 3 in January of 2022 it is now May of 2022 and the carabiner on the JBLClip 3 is broken. The carabiner design is weak and flawed. This product is designed to clip on to loops, rings, and straps of clothing and packs along with other items so it can be carried. My JBL Clip 3 broke when being attached to a belt loop on my shorts. Very weak design. I have a JBL Clip 2 that I have had for many years. I have even replaced the battery, the carabiner on the JBL Clip 2 is stout and strong. It still works and functions as well as it did when I bought it with exception of the battery replacement. But after replacing the battery it works great. I do not understand why JBL changed the carabiner to the weak and failure prone clip on the JBL Clip 3. I do like the control access on the face of the Clip 3. All of the other aspects are very similar if not the same. Battery, sounds, size, weight, and style are similar if not the same as the Clip 2 with exception of the carabiner/clip. The JBL Clip 3 has an inferior and design flawed weak carabiner/clip that breaks easily. Do a search on the web for JBL Clip 3 broken carabiner/clip and look at all the images.

Man, how do I start first of all technology has came a long way. My wife love it!! Plus nice clear speaker It's JBL of course.

Love it. Perfect weight and size for travel. Not a lot of volume but enough for a hotel room.
