Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have seen how the JBL speakers would play music so loud and good quality sound. I have two sisters that they have JBL and never give them any problems and the device is amazing. I have end up buying one for my fiancé since he likes listening to music a lot. It was amazing gift to him. He loves it.

The JBL Flip 5 speaker sounds really good (compared to older bluetooth speakers that I have had). The associated app that you can download isn't the greatest, but I don't really need to use it. It is fairly easy to connect. Only downside is that I wish it came with an equalizer feature that automatically loads on your device when the speaker is being used, but I was able to find a free 3rd party equalizer app that works just fine - I just need to remember to manually start up the 3rd party app when I want to use the speaker.

I really recommend the costumer service in Everett, Ma. A few days ago I got a JBL product open box and came out with a different charger, after I made the complaint Best Buy costumer service were in touch with me and they give me exactly the right product, which I was claiming.

Brooooo! This is the 5th speaker I’ve gotten in the last 2 years. I’m just looking for great sound, smallish, and waterproof. This speaker hits all marks. Would definitely recommend if you like spending time by water in the summer and snow in the winter. 5/5 just buy it already.

Purchased this speaker as a gift for my nephew. We have purchased other models before and we are never disappointed. This little speaker carries great sound. It’s easy to charge and easy to connect. I highly recommend this speaker to anyone looking for quality at a great price!

The beats are good and battery lasts for a long time. Not suited for out door. Compact and very easy to carry

Good sound, lacks an EQ on an app but using reverb (such as putting it in a open box or facing the other way) you are able to get some extra bass.

So far so good.. purchased two types of ultimate ears speakers and they never lasted more then 60 days without some type of issue/ warranty issue that wasn’t resolved. The jbl are doing the job. Rugged/ simple to use/ adequate sound- volume options and their history of top quality stereo gear shows within this speaker. I take it outside when doing yard work and chill time within the house. Go with a company that has a history of making great speakers because I have jbl speakers for my stereo home system.

Great sound comes out this little speaker. Audio is clear, crisps and can be very loud, and it even has a surprising amount of bass. We bought two at the same time which has worked great since these speakers have the ability to sync with each other for a stereo experience. The only downside is the fact that it's a mono speaker, hence the benefit of having two if you like stereo quality. Overall, I'd suggest this little guy to a friend or a passer-by as it packs quite the punch!

Great speaker! The bass is the best feature. Pretty durable, I dropped it a few times as well and it’s still working great. Comparing it to a beats pill, this one is better because the pill has no bass. Definitely reccomend this

This is a great wireless speaker. We recently got rid of our WiFi at work to save some dollars. Our sonos needs a WiFi connection plus its complicated. We like the sound better than our sonos and it’s super easy to use and connect any of our devices. Definitely buying a couple more for other places.

Love all the JBL speakers. The ocean blue is such a cool color. I mainly use my Xtreme2 but this Flip 5 caught my eye and I am really impressed. It is nice to have a smaller one to move around when I am not needing the Xtreme2 for it's waterproof ability!

Purchased this for my wife after her previous speaker died. Thought it was bit small when we got it but Wow, did it put out sound. She claims much better sound than her old Insignia, which was actually bigger in size. Was great price and a bargain at that!

I got this speaker for my mothers Christmas gift and it is perfect! The sound the bass and the crisp sound of the speaker is amazing. It is super easy to pair and connect to your device.

Awesome sound! Picked this gem up after a quiet trip at the beach. I wanted something I could take with me to the beach and not worry about sand and water. It has a great battery life ! I would recommend this speaker to anyone looking for a decent speaker at a decent price!

Compact with big sound. It fills a room. I bought a second flip 5 from Walmart after Best Buy wouldn’t price match for me. 89 bucks. Anyway, two Flip 5’s combined in the app make for great stereo sound. Because of these two, I’ve become an even bigger JBL fan.

Speaker is average but for the price I would wait until it goes down or for the next gen. The value wasn’t there. I expected a lot more quality sound from this.

If you’re considering buying this, do it! This little thing jams! I ordered it online and picked it up was unimpressed by the size, I assumed something that small couldn’t be so loud! When I turn it on it automatically connects to my iPhone and starts bumping.

We already had a similar JBL speaker and used it ALL over when we would work outside. It's still holding up great so we decided to upgrade for in the house and it has been terrific.

A friend of mine had one of these speakers and I was really impressed with the clarity and sharp sound, and that such a little speaker could achieve so much volume!! I was so happy to finally get one! And the fact that it’s waterproof just makes it that much better!
