    This speaker is amazing for the price. I also love the party boost option to hook multiple speakers together throughout the house. I have also bought some for the shop floor for where I work as we can connect multiple together the get sound throughout the whole factory

    We bought this to use on a little skiff in a tidal creek and well as on the dock we tie the skiff to. So we needed something that was water resistant with decent sound. Very happy with the sound quality and the portability. We have also used it working around the house outside. Love it

    Not sure i actually needed this cool little speaker tube; turns out it packs quite a punch and its small size should not be underestimated. Sound quality is better than expected, volume output far exceeded my expectations and I could not be happier with this purchase.

    Great sound in a small package! Got this as a replacement for our previous JBL. Smaller speaker, same sound.

    WHY?

    1st off, sound is excellent. Noticeably better than the Flip 4. Let's say 20% better. But what they don't tell you is that they TOOK AWAY key features. Like now you cannot make phone calls. The Flip 4 seamlessly answered your calls, and it was super convenient. Why take that away? Your phone does not sync with this. Secondly, there is no headphone input, so you cannot sync up for videos (which otherwise may lag with the bluetooth. It also doesn't sync with previous versions of Flip speakers. Why go backwards on features, I'll never understand. If you just need great sound through bluetooth, then I would recommend. Otherwise, go with a different speaker.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    This speaker is exactly what we were looking for it. It has great sound and we found a great price on it at Best Buy and it’s covered under warranty which is great.

    I enjoy the sound and convenience from these JBL speakers. The reason I give them 4 stars is because every JBL Flip or Pulse speaker I’ve purchased previously has broken down on me after 2-3 years. I expect to write a similar review as this one sometime in 2026.

    Sleek design, and good craftmanship. The buttons come in handy for when your phone/device is in the other room and the Bluetooth range has reached all areas of the house. The sound quality is the best (out of any speaker I've own), with the base being the focal point.

    This portable JBL speaker is not only very handy to have in order to bring the music with you, but it also produces a very rich sound. I got it on sale, which makes it even more worth the money.

    High note can be better. Try flip 6.

    Very portable for a mono party speak. Maybe not be punchy for its bass for the small size. But you also do not pay for high price.
