#pulse 2

After reviewing the original Pulse, we now take a look at the newer JBL Pulse 2 that basically has the same funky lights that made its predecessor special, but with updated features. Design and Construction The original JBL Pulse got the attention of a lot of consumers as it offered a visually appealing light show that could be used when playing music or just on its own as ambient light. The textured wire that protected the lights of the Pulse is now more of a smooth metallic grille. Testing its build quality, the Pulse 2 feels more solid than its predecessor as the former demonstrated a bit of squeaking sound after giving both a gentle squeeze. A feature that's absent on Pulse are the external passive bass radiators found on both ends of the speaker. As mentioned earlier, the Pulse 2 has the JBL Prism color sensor lens located together with other buttons. During a few tries, it was hit and miss since there were certain colors that the Pulse 2 didn't identify correctly. During our review of the first Pulse, we wished that water and dust-proofing would make it the perfect portable wireless speaker solution.
