QuestionWhat is the difference between the flip 5 and flip 6. ...Both are waterproof right? What are the added features of a flip 6 and what did they take away that the flip 5 has?
Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer The Flip 6 adds a tweeter so it has improved treble sound. It also adds that it's also "dustproof". To me though, the big news (that they don't seem to mention) is that the JBL mobile app includes an equalizer for the Flip 6. You can adjust bass/mid/treble by +/- 2 notches. So you can make an already great sounding speaker sound even better with tweaks provided in the app!

Asked 11 months ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Thanks for your question. Bluetooth connectivity issues are likely caused by signal interference with other wireless signals. Please ensure a clear line of sight between the speaker and the source and shut down unused Bluetooth products nearby. Verify if the issue continues across different music applications and devices. If you need more help, please contact our customer support for further assistance.
