      We appreciate your feedback! It will not connect with the JBL Flip 4 as it has the JBL Connect+ while the FLip 5 has the PartyBoost. JBL

    Easy to set up and get going. Doesn't sound quite as good as my former UEBoom 2. But it costs less and has USB-C. Would recommend.

    The Best Buy clerk should have recommended one older JBL Flip 4 and not Flip 5 which we bought/ We had asked for one with USB input speaker. Flip 5 does not have USB input, it has Bluetooth only. However it works our newer laptops at home not our older PC's.

      Thanks for your feedback about our JBL Flip 5. The micro-USB port isn't part of the design on our JBL Flip 5 because most of the latest models of smartphones support type-C cable. The speaker has a more user-friendly design by removing the rubber flap, which sometimes causes the charging cable to be bent. Type-C supports fast charging. This allows for energy-efficient use. On the other hand, we decided to remove the AUX input because this feature was not being used by most of our customers. We focused on improving Bluetooth software and sound quality on our units instead. If you need help, please reach out to our Customer Support. https://www.jbl.com/support-contact.html JBL

      Thanks for your feedback. We're always looking for ways to improve. For our JBL Flip 5, source devices (phones, tablets, etc.) all behave a bit differently. Some have very loud outputs, and some can be quite a bit lower, even at maximum volumes. You may try to use an equalizer like JBL App on your music application to adjust the volume to your preference. If you need more help, please contact our customer support. JBL

      We appreciate your feedback with our JBL Flip 5. Bluetooth typically performs well within a 30-foot range, but walls, obstacles, and other wireless devices can impede this. If you experience dropouts within 10 feet, there may be interference. To resolve the issue with your speaker, ensure it is within 10 feet of your device with a clear line of sight (no obstacles). Try to forget/unpair the speaker on your device, and initiate a reset. To reset, turn on the speaker then press and hold "Volume +" and "Play" for more than 3 seconds. Lastly, try to connect the speaker to a different device to determine if the issue lies with the speaker or the initial device you paired them with. If you need more help, please contact us at (877) 871-6755 / Mon - Fri: 9:00 am - 11:00 pm (ET) Sat-Sun: 9:00 am - 5:00 pm (ET). JBL

    I bought 2 to replace my charge 3 that had a blown speaker. I did all three reasons. I watched videos to make sure these were it. I returned a different brand because there was no Aux port. I get these and there is no aux port! Also they don't link easily. They also cut in and out. I have been i n touch with technical support with in the fisrt use.

    It's a good enough speaker to put in a room as long as you don't have much else playing in it.
