    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.

    WOW! This portable bluetooth speaker is a powerful device! I have purchased several other portable bluetooth speaker, but none come close to the quality of sound produced from this speaker. I HIGHLY recommend the JLB Flip 5 speaker.

    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

    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 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.

    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.
