Great product for the price and size! Very pleased

Good sound quality (great for the size) / so-so app (Android) / bad documentation. My Flip 5's (I have two) are v0.5.6 firmware. The Flip 5 sounds great for it's size. The bass does roll off the louder you listen. It does have a mild audible background hiss during playback if you're sitting close and the audio is quiet. It attempts to conceal this (and perhaps save power) by muting the output during audio silence. If you listen to podcasts this may be annoying. Some podcasts use noise gating in their audio which means the Flip 5 is constantly muting and unmuting the output between words or sentences when the person talking pauses. The problem here is that there is a slight audible popping sound in the Flip 5 when it unmutes. In music this doesn't seem to be happening because there is no true silence in a song, but it could happen between songs. The JBL app is okay, not great. It requires location services be enabled to work. The app won't connect to a Flip 5 that is in PartyBoost or Stereo mode. It prompts you to take the Flip 5 out of PartyBoost / Stereo mode providing incorrect instructions on how to do (a short press of the PartyBoost button on speaker is the correct way). Contrary to the documentation the PartyBoost vs. Stereo setting does not stick. If you power off the Flip 5 it returns to PartyBoost mode. There is also no way to switch to Stereo mode without the app. So if you want to use a pair of Flip 5's for stereo with another Bluetooth audio source like a PC or MP3 player, you need your phone, use the JBL app on the phone to set the first Flip 5 to Stereo, then disconnect your phone from the Flip 5, connect the other BT audio source to the Flip 5, and then add the other Flip 5 using the PartyBoost button on each. The Stereo setting should stick through a power cycle, and there should be a way to switch between Stereo and PartyBoost modes without the app. Specifically by using some sequence or combination of button presses on the Flip 5, like a double click of the PartyBoost button when you have two speakers linked, or holding down the PartyBoost button and pressing another button. Sony's BT speakers can be put in and out of their Stereo Pair mode without an app with just the buttons on the speakers.

Have 2 of these Bluetooth speaker the party mode is a must have with the group

Got this as a gift for my father and he loves it!!

Amazing sound quality for such a small device! Well worth the price, you really don't need a big speaker!

Great sound good quality item I recommend AAA ++++

I have one already, this one is a gift for Christmas. If you know someone that is into music this is the speaker for them.

I bought this as a replacement for my old JBL speaker. A price I could afford. I don’t need a lot of projection.. just for my patio and various rooms. I don’t want to annoy the neighbors, but I suspect if cranked it up full it might. The tone is very full and rich for a small speaker. I’m happy!

I brought this as a gift for my husband. He loves to use it especially when he barbecues.

Great sound and great battery life. Will go days without a charge and I use it every morning.

This is a great speaker. I bought it for my husband for Father’s Day. He loved it so much

Small but mighty. Sounds are most satisfactory. Playing time is outstanding. Highly recommended.

The sound quality is great, my daughter took my flip 4. So I got the newest model and it sounds great easy to use.

Great price. The sound/bass and quality are great as well. Very portable and sounds bigger than it is.
