I can never get more than 2 hours play time on the CLIP4. I use it while golfing and it is very frustrating.

We bought the JBL Clip 4 as our corporate gifts this year. We went with JBL because it is a quality brand that delivers. My boss wanted to test one out and I could still here him jamming when he got to his office, and the volume wasn't turned all the way up either. Clear sound, perfect speaker for pretty much anywhere. Except national parks - don't be that person.

I used to own a clip 3 and loved it. So I purchased a clip 4. The sound seems better on the clip 4 but right out of the box I don't like 3 things immediately. 1: I don't like that there is no dust cover for the charging port. I don't care if you say it's "dust" proof, I work in construction and I'm going to be very upset if it gets clogged with a bunch of crap other than dust and I can't charge it. 2: I don't like that the power and Bluetooth buttons aren't concaved anymore, they are raised so they are way to easy to hit the button turning it off or the Bluetooth which is just annoying. 3: the charging cable is way to short. I like the clip 3 design better.
