[CES 2017] The JBL Pulse speaker was originally announced a few years ago. It was then followed up by the JBL Pulse 2 which featured a similar design with the addition of being splashproof. Now at CES 2017, the folks at JBL are back and they have unveiled their latest Pulse offering in the form of the JBL Pulse 3.
The JBL Pulse 3 will look and function almost similarly as its predecessors. It will feature 360-degree sound and a light show that is pretty much one of the highlights of the speakers. Just like the Pulse 2, the Pulse 3 will be waterproof. One of the changes JBL has made is to the bass, which is supposedly improved thanks to the three drivers and dual passive radiators used.
The battery life of the Pulse 3 also appears to be pretty decent at about 12 hours of playtime. JBL is also boasting how through the JBL Connect+ technology, users will be able to connect more than 100 speakers together, which we can only imagine will result in a fantastic light show that can synchronize with your music.
So far reviews of the previous Pulse speakers have been mostly positive as far as portable Bluetooth speakers are concerned, and we expect the Pulse 3 will carry on that tradition. The speakers are priced at $200 and will be available in the spring of 2017.
