JBL Clip 3 Bluetooth Speaker

JBL is a legendary American audio brand founded in 1946 by James Bullough Lansing. The Clip 3 is one of its most popular ultra-portable Bluetooth speakers, recognized by its rugged fabric finish and integrated carabiner. Historically, JBL transformed from a high-end studio and cinema audio pioneer into a global leader in consumer electronics.

Today, JBL is a key brand within the Harman International portfolio. In 2017, Harman was acquired by the South Korean conglomerate Samsung Electronics, which remains the ultimate owner as of 2026. While the brand maintains its creative roots and headquarters in the United States (Stamford, CT), the high-volume manufacturing of its consumer-grade portable speakers like the Clip 3 is primarily carried out in China and Vietnam to ensure global distribution and competitive pricing.
