JBL just dropped the Grip Bluetooth speaker. In short its a compact outdoor companion with IP68 rating and customizable lighting, which is built for the wild but doesn’t skimp on features. And in the long run, this article will discuss everything about the latest JBL Grip Bluetooth Speaker, including its price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.
JBL Grip Bluetooth Speaker Overview
Design and Build
The JBL Grip looks ready to take a beating. You’re getting a rugged frame with IP68 dust/water protection, drop resistance up to 1 meter, and a rope loop to hook it on a bag or bike. It weighs about 385g — roughly the size of a soda can — and has rubber feet to stay steady on flat surfaces. Bonus points: it’s made with recycled materials and shipped in eco-friendly packaging.
Audio and Features
At its core is a 16W full-range driver (32mm × 80mm) with JBL claiming punchy bass and ;good genre' versatility. It also supports multi-speaker pairing via Auracast, so you can sync it with other compatible JBL gear.
Meanwhile, you get Bluetooth 5.4, which means that the speaker is good for quicker pairing and better stability, while the RGB lighting setup is also there, if you want to toggle between Ambient, Breathing, and Rhythm-based modes — which are all customizable through the JBL Portable app.

Battery and Charging
Battery life isn’t bad either. In Normal mode, you’re getting up to 12 hours, and Boost+ mode pushes it to 14. Charging happens via USB-C and takes about 3 hours to top up.
