Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the Flip 4 Portable Bluetooth Speaker's sound quality, portability, and battery life. Many appreciate its size and volume, while some find the bass adequate and the waterproof design a plus. A few customers noted the speaker's weight as a potential drawback, and some experienced issues with the charging port. Overall, positive feedback significantly outweighs negative comments.

    Unit now shuts off after about 10 minutes. So frustrated as I have had 3 jbl speakers stop working yet if you were to look at them they all look new showing how I have taken care of them. One of them stopped working after a 4 foot accidental drop. Unfortunately this all happened after the one year warranty. Very smart of JBL.

      We recommend trying the steps on our support page article about "Battery and Charging" to isolate the issue with your JBL Flip 4. Our units only come with a one-year limited warranty, if the speaker is beyond that, please reach out to us so we can check your other options. https://support.jbl.com/us/en/ JBL

    I purchased this speaker based on reviews. Never again, the speaker sound terrible! I returned it in less than 15 days. The higher the volume the worst it sounds. No bass, my Amazon Alexa has more bass than this.

    I’ve had this speaker for about 2 years now the battery dies very quickly or it randomly turns off. Sometimes the bass makes this odd noise randomly as welll I don’t think I’ll be buying JBL ANYTHING anymore. This is my 2nd speaker like this and both have the same issues after the first year.

    I think it is a great speaker with nice sound but I had a defective battery and had to return it it is probably more than 1 star considering the sound but the battery disappointed me.

      Thanks for the feedback about our JBL Flip 4. There are factors we need to consider with the battery life of our speakers. Our products have lithium-ion batteries that have charging cycles. These cycles will get consumed when you charge your unit and completely discharge it. This explains why speakers can last for six to eight hours when you first bought it. Two years later, it may only last two to three hours. This is normal. What isn't, is when a 12-month-old battery only lasts 15 minutes. Temperature also affects the battery life. Our products only come with a one-year limited warranty. Please reach out to our Customer Support, and we'll help you with your options. https://www.jbl.com/support-contact.html JBL
