    I use this with a bluetooth transmitter with my TV to make this a mobile speaker to move around my open-floor-plan house to so I don't need to jack up the TV volume when I'm cooking in the kitchen. Works perfectly with long battery life

    I used it a coupel of times and it doesn’t charge any more, I even tried a different charger and same thing. It starts charging and then stops and if I turn it on, starts for 1 or maximum 2 songs and then stops working.

    • Brand response from JBL Support
      Posted .

      Thank you for your feedback. Your JBL Flip 5 might has a bad power adapter to have a problem like this. The charger may not be powerful enough to power the unit and charge the battery. Check the adapter and make sure that the rating is 2 amps or higher. Reset may also fix the issue, please follow these steps: Remove or forget the speaker from the list of paired Bluetooth devices in the settings of the phone or tablet. Then, with the speaker powered on, press and hold the Volume + and Play buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds until the unit turns off.
      The speaker has now been reset. For further assistance, feel free to contact our customer support. JBL

    So happy I finally bought this. I was holding off for a while because I had the JBL Clip 3 & couldn’t decide if I wanted a new Clip or something different. Very glad I went with this one. It’s super loud & durable.

    I went to BB to replace some speakers that broke. I guess they were low on affordable speakers because all that were available were giant speakers that cost upwards of $300. This happened to be the last one so I bought it for less than half the price of those giant speakers I took the JBL flip five home and tried it out. I am glad that I did! Surprising bass and it does not sound tinny. For less than $150, this was a good purchase

    I researched this boom box and I felt the most comfortable purchasing it from Best Buy. It is very handy , fits in my pocket book and it delivers just the right amount of sound that I want and when I want it. Every person should own one of these. Great product!!

    This is one of my best investment. The sound is fabulous. Great for my reggae music as you get the beats and instrumental sounds loud and clear. Love it and enjoying it on my patio when swimming or around the house. Highly recommend.

    This speaker is great, great, great. I love that it is waterproof especially great when taking to the beach. I also love the hours of play time this thing has. If you don’t have one already, I highly recommend.

    Sound quality is great. Super clear and can be very loud. Our oldest has an Alexa and this is so much better. Number one it’s wireless compared to the Alexa and number two he can take it with him and use it indoors or outdoors.

    Bought this newer model as old finally bit the dust. JBL has quality sound and construction. Now with many different colors allows for me to put this and have it match a rooms decor flawlessly. Doesn't stand out.

    This speaker has great sound and is small enough to take with you wherever you go. I bought the ocean blue color and I really love the color. It charges via USB-C and doesn't take too long to fully charge. For the price, you can't beat it!!!

    Bought it for under $100 for my son for Christmas and he loves it! We have had Bose and Beats in the past and they both broke super easy, even though they were very gentle. This speaker sounds great and is much more durable!

    I have a JBL extreme and my dad always asks me to borrow it. So instead of buying him something that expensive and decided to buy this and was happy with the sound quality and was finally able to stop him from taking my speaker.

    I purchased this speaker for the high volume and quality. I recently installed a hot tub and needed something that was louder than the tub! This speaker did not disappoint at all! Thinking about getting another for true stereo effect

    Great sounding speaker and I was surprised how loud the bass was on this. The sound was crisp and clean and it's perfect for travel! I highly recommend it for any trips or just bumping while you're outside in the yard.

    I have had so many other bluetooth speakers but none of them sound like this one, none of them last as long this one does. It is just great my husband loves it he takes outside with him when he is grilling so he can listen to his music.
