Is the sound quality better than the now discontinued "Google Home"?
From what I've read, the general consensus is that it's essentially Google Home, with better sound quality.
? you sure
See previous discussions in Deals
Or Specs in Deal Link
Battery Life: N/A - has power cable not batteriesThe JBL Link Portable is the version with a battery.
and this is ?
@mudguppy1: Read the Deal Title "JBL Link Music"
think the twits have screwed up the specs
@mudguppy1: As I said - read the discussions about the Music vs Portable in previous Deals. The units are different sizes, one mains, other battery.
@INFIDEL: portable ?
@mudguppy1: Just means the Music model can be moved around.
@mudguppy1: The portable model is called ‘JBL Link Portable’
This deal is for ‘JBL Link Music’. (No battery)
@INFIDEL: google the model no. and this is portable ie has a battery
@mudguppy1: The picture is of the non battery Music model. I have the Portable in front of me, & seen the Music. They are different models.

https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/9134866/redir@INFIDEL: oh dear what part of "portable" is not understood, can not take it to my car so?? not portable. ffs
@mudguppy1: Take it up with Australia Post then.
We were just trying to stop people making the mistake thinking this is the battery powered model.
@INFIDEL: WIRED should be in title imho
@mudguppy1: Wired means music source is connected to the unit by wires, not how it's powered.
It operates wirelessly by Casting & Bluetooth.You sure are mudgrumpy!
@INFIDEL: yep soz
@mudguppy1: Yeah thats why I made my comment.
My link portable died and Big W tried to straight swap it for this saying they were identical apart from the size and price. If I hadn't had checked the box and online I would have been very unhappy when I opened it.
Are this series of jbl speakers have connection issue still?
Not in my few weeks experience
a wired wireless speaker, good job jbl
Battery powered speakers have power supply limitations (5V input to charge a 3.7V battery) that mains powered amplified speakers don't need to deal with. It's a design consideration when working with amplifiers, as I've done.
So mains powered can have better quality & louder output than low voltage battery powered units. I don't know about this model.
Not everyone wants their wireless music input speakers for portable use. My JBL Link Portable just sits on its charger base at home. I'm getting rid of it, in place of a mains powered one.
So it's an option.
as a carpenter i am getting rid of all my corded cordless drills
You really don't want to understand any other uses except your own, do you!
Strangely, that's why different models are manufactured, as people have different requirements. We're not all the same!!
You've used up a fair percentage of the comments you've made since 2009 - misunderstanding this Deal!
Is this a really good price? I'm seeing listings over $100 but not sure if that is the battery version? I have google nest minis but this might be good for outdoor area with better sound.
No this is NOT the battery powered "'Link Portable".
"Link Music" needs its power cable connected all the time, same as the Nest Mini but with better sound quality.
I replaced my outdoor nest mini with the JBL ‘link portable’. Good sound quality upgrade. Waterproof and battery powered. All good things and worth the $100 or so I paid.
Just to be clear. I’m not talking about the speaker in this deal, which isn’t portable.
While music can be streamed wirelessly this speaker has no battery and requires a power cord to run. Just to save any confusion.
