    Purchased Last Christmas and used daily, I have reached battery to 90 percent all year without any loss of operation time, this speaker out performs my expectations in sound and durability performance. I carry anywhere I want to enjoy music.

    Probably the best speaker I’ve ever owned. The bass is killer and the sound is great. Wish it was maybe a little lighter though, but I guess the weight makes it feel more luxury or expensive so I know it’a good!

    The flip 5 is a great speaker better bass and louder. Only complaint is i would have wanted 2 speakers instead of one bigger one the flip 4 has more clarity in vocals and highs. All in all I dont regret this speaker JBL always has great speakers.

    This acoustic phenomenon blesses my ears with the crispest of all audible toons. Compact enough to fit in my pocket, loud enough to make me bob my head to the beat. I highly recommend this speaker and I use it every day!

    Love this speaker. I can take it anywhere. Love the quality! Take it camping, and hook it up to the iPad to watch movies in the tent. Charges quick and battery lasts longer then expected! Worth every penny!

    A great portable high fidelity Bluetooth speaker. It has JBL quality, small form-factor and fantastic sound. The battery has an impressive play time on a charge.

    JBL is simply the best for long lasting quality and sound. It can withstand literally anything…except leaving it in a golf cart…which is why I’m buying another

    Not worth the upgrade

    Posted .

    If you have the jbl flip 4 then don't waste your money in the flip 5... Not worth the change. You're no longer going to be able to make phone calls thru the speaker. Have no idea why they took the microphone off... I'm pretty sure they'll put it back on the next speaker cause it was a stupid thing to do to take it off. Another bad thing they did was to make it a mono speaker, only one speaker in the front, didn't like it. It does sound a little louder but not worth the change if your flip 4 is still in good shape. If you have older version of the speaker, you will not be able to link it to the flip 5... On that one I'm not sure about but that's what I heard. It still a beautiful speaker don't get me wrong, but it's taking features that were part of the good thing that had the JBL flip speakers.

      Thanks for taking the time in providing your feedback with our JBL Flip 5. This speaker has the PartyBoost function that can be used to connect with other PartyBoost speakers to play the same music at the same time. As Bluetooth technology improves, so do our portable products. Our JBL Flip 5 is mono as it only has 1 racetrack shaped driver on one end. But you can make it stereo with another JBL Flip 5 through the JBL Connect app. If you need more help, please contact us here: https://bit.ly/2zwFkYM JBL

    I’ve only had this speaker for a year and a half and it’s already not charging. Great sound for my office but glad I got the protection plan for it. Guess I’ll upgrade.

    I was looking for a portable speaker loud enough to fill the sound by the pool but small enough to fit in my summer bag. This item sounds good and the battery lasts. I Also love it comes in teal.

    This JBL speaker was one of the best speakers I’ve ever bought for my boyfriend, my boyfriend loves music so since the day he got it he’s been using it since! It is very loud and it doesn’t die quickly at all. If you’re contemplating buying it… BUY IT! You won’t regret it!

    Was impressed with the sound quality as well as the unit itself. Bought to replace an older unit without Bluetooth capabilities this more than fulfilled my needs. Portable to boot.

    This little speaker packs a punch for its compact size. The bass levels catch you off guard and the clarity at high volumes is surprising. This was a purchase well made and I’d suggest you do it as well.

    Been searching for a good speaker, found the perfect one. Sound so crisp, bass powerful, and feasible to travel with. Honestly surprised at how loud a small speaker can be, sounds like a big speaker.
