JBL’s new portable PartyBox speaker with wireless karaoke mic sets the party off at new $250 low (Reg. $350)

$100 off $250
JBL PartyBox On-The-Go Essential

Party and karaoke speakers tend to fetch a premium, and rightfully so considering the usually more powerful output, flashing light shows, and mic inputs. JBL makes some of the better options in the category, and we just spotted a new Amazon all-time low on one of its latest releases, the PartyBox On-The-Go Essential. This mid-range model certainly isn’t the most affordable option out there with a regularly $350 price tag, but it’s also now $100 off via Amazon at $249.95 shipped. That’s the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon since it landed there back in March – it is also $50 under the only other deal we have seen thus far. There are certainly some no-name options out there for less, or brands much less respected in the audio game than JBL you can save some cash with, but this is also one of its latest releases that comes in well below the larger, and higher-end variants while still delivering the 100W output and included karaoke action. 

The JBL PartyBox On-The-Go Essential lands in that sweet spot when it comes to value if you ask me, and even more so at $100 off. The synced light show action is a nice touch with plenty of preset patterns and colors to choose from, not to mention the 100W output, Bluetooth streaming action, and the mic/guitar inputs. But this one also comes with a JBL wireless microphone for the price of entry, delivering karaoke action right out of the box (the mic has a 10-meter wireless range too). 

From there, you can expect 6 hours of wireless playback to get the party going anywhere and an IPX4 splash-proof design to safeguard it at the pool parties or beach. 

Having said all of that, if you’re looking for some serious power, something that also a telescoping handle to wheel it around alongside the light show and karaoke setup, scope out our review of the 36-pound JBL PartyBox Stage 320 Speaker

And for a more traditional Bluetooth portable speaker, the new 2024 Sony ULT FIELD 1 wireless model is still sitting at the Amazon low and might very well be the summer’s best new speaker release.
