An enlarged Jambox portable speaker with call conferencing proves bigger isn't always better.

Clean, stylish design, Excellent projection of audio, High quality portable speakerphone

Average audio quality & weak bass performance, Expensive, Heavy, impractical travel design, Bluetooth streaming lacks aptX

Jawbone Big Jambox review

A fun-sounding box that will blast out your tunes anywhere

Funky design ; highly portable ; good Bluetooth connection ; goes very loud ; bold and lively presentation

Could do with a touch more refinement and subtlety.

Entertaining, hip design, portable and wireless – the Big Jambox is a cool product, but there are rivals with more detailed sound

Jawbone BIG Jambox - Review

One of the phrases I seem to be using more and more is ?…and you paid how much for it???. Despite nobody appearing to have any money, it seems we are big fans of those ?Premium? products. I mean, why [...

I am currently rocking a Nexus 4 and Nexus 7, my main area of interest obviously being Android! I also make videos but that’s on hold until I get my hands on new equipment and new studio.

The Big Jambox, as its title indicates, is a much larger and heavier version of the original Jambox providing enhanced audio and speakerphone capability to your mobile devices. Available in a choice of Red, White or Graphic Hex (black to you and me),...

Goondu review: Big Jambox wireless speaker

When we first reviewed the original Jambox over a year ago, this chilli padi of a speaker belted out room-filing sound that belies its diminutive footprint. Now, the little red box is joined by a bigger brother, aptly named Big Jambox. The newest...

Like the original Jambox, the big Jambox packs more punch than most puny laptop and smartphone speakers. Though it won’t replace a tradition stereo set-up, it’s arguably one of the best portable speakers you can bring along for a small business...

Jawbone Big Jambox review

If you've been eyeing the Jambox but crave richer audio, we'd recommend its big brother without much hesitation

Big sound in a small packageStylish and portableExcellent looksExceptional battery life

May distort at louder volumesLive Audio can be hit-or-miss

So, is the Big Jambox worth $300 of your hard-earned cash? Furthermore, is that 100-dollar premium over the OG Jambox worth its weight? Aside from our concerns about the finer points of its audio fidelity, there's no mistaking how versatile this system...

Jawbone Jambox review

You may have already gathered that we're fans of the Jawbone Jambox -- seeing as how it appears in our Holiday Gift Guide -- but does a miniature portable

Mild distortion ; Iffy as speakerphone ; Pricey
