I love JBL speakers. They sound great and the price is competitive to other brands. This speaker packs a punch and it also has a feature that allows you to connect to more than one (if you choose to buy more). My issue is that this is my 3rd JBL Flip 6. The first one had issues with the power button. The second speaker started to get static and muffled sounding. Luckily I’m a Best Buy Total Tech member and it allows my purchases to be covered for up to 24 months. This made exchanging it very easy but I did end up having to pay a balance on the retail price because when I originally purchased it, it was on sale (Black Friday). Still better than paying full price for a replacement and the replacement speaker is now covered for another 2 years. Hopefully I don’t have any more problems. I own other JBL speakers (Charge 1, Charge 4 & Charge 5) and I still love the brand.

Thank you for your feedback. If you're experiencing a sound issue with your JBL Flip 6, please try connecting the speaker to other devices to determine whether the issue lies with the unit or the source device. If the problem persists, try resetting the unit to factory default settings by turning on the speaker and pressing and holding both the 'Volume +' and 'Play' buttons for more than 3 seconds. The speaker will turn off and reboot to factory default settings. You may need to 'forget' the speaker in the Bluetooth settings on your phone or tablet in order to pair it again. If this does not resolve the issue, please contact our customer support. <img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/stratos-logos/logos/JBL.png" alt="JBL" title="JBL" style="display: block !important; margin-top: 2em !important; border: 1px solid #ccc !important; padding: 2px !important; background-color: white !important;" />

Don’t get me wrong this little thing is great just not long battery life as I was expecting. I’m sure if volume is at middle it might can go 10-12 hours but no one buys portable speakers to listen at those levels do they? Well, I didn’t I work outdoors and need music or my podcasts to keep me going all day. At full volume this thing last 5 maybe 6 hours and then it dies ao I’ve had to keep it charging all day to be able to use it the 10hrs of daily usage I need. Don’t let this thing die and if it does don’t expect to plug it to power and keep going unless again you plan to listen at medium volume. I have not tried using a “fast charger” maybe that could work to keep it powered if it dies and want to go back to full blast but other than battery love the sound and bass this thing puts out for a light and convenient portable speaker.

All around a very unimpressive experience. Sound lacks depth and character. Bass is very much absent. Only real positive is that it has good battery life and connectivity.

My wife "commandeered" my DOSS XL, so I've been looking for a replacement for it. I've auditioned a few, including a different DOSS model, and let me just say this JBL is... middling, at best. To start, I love James B. Lansing's stuff. My first home theater system was comprised of JBL speakers. My DOSS XL was about sixty bucks. For its price, it's amazing. Simply so. When my wife is listening to it while she's in the shower I can hear the thumping downstairs. This is twice as much, and really not worth it. The problem is that it's difficult to quantify why. To start, I love that it has an app. and an equalizer in the app. Love love that. It has bass... kind of. You can hear that the speaker is trying to hit... but it sounds like a flat tire. The DOSS has less bass, but what it has is SO clean. The JBL does have it beat on overall clarity though. The DOSS sounds good, but the vocals on the JBL sound great. This is not a good "full room" speaker, I would use the DOSS for that in a heart beat. The JBL is good for moderate listening, and probably not much more. Overall I would not recommend this, especially not at the price point.

Decent speaker, decent volume. I don’t like how long the battery last though. I would not recommend this pill you have to constantly charge it more often then you should. The battery life is very short.

I am disappointed in the sound quality the JBL Flip 6 provides. The highs are too muddy and not sharp or crisp. The mids are almost non-existent and the lows are overtaking because the highs are muddy and the mids are gone. Bose still makes much better sounding wireless speakers. If JBL had an equalizer for the speaker than this could be corrected by the user, but speaker doesn’t have one. JBL has this issue with their other wireless speakers as well, for example the JBL Extreme 2. For those that want to have a waterproof speaker play music and don’t care what it sounds like, then this is for you.

Love the look and features with this speaker but the sound of my Flip4 was better. Just hope this one lasts longer than the 4 which was 2 years. Be sure to download the app as there is an EQ to adjust sound to your preference. Just doesn’t get the base and all around quality that the 4 put out.

I brought in my flip 5 because it wasnt working well with my fire TV. So i got this teade in and got the JBL 6 for 38 dollars more thinking it would solve the problem . But it didnt. There must be something that dosent work in harmony between the Bluetooth and TV and that saddens me once agian

Item was rated as excellent” open box item but it was dusty and had dings on the speaker. I won’t be buying open box items from Best Buy from this experience.
