    I've only had this speaker for only a week but so far I'm really impressed. I didn't charge it all out if the box. I downloaded the JBL connect app & battery was probably at 70%. I've used it every day & currently at maybe 40%. I don't use it on full blast because there's no need to. I run it at maybe 50-60% full volume & it's more than loud enough in medium sized rooms. I have tried it on full blast but it's too loud for my taste. I haven't used it outdoors so I can't comment on that. Long story short, I'm very happy with the speaker & am actually thinking about getting another one

    I love this little speaker. Don't let its size fool you, it packs a punch! Just like everything else JBL makes, this speaker is top quality. Mine lives it's life in my garage and is exposed to oil, coolant, water, and frigid temps and still it kicks. I've even brought it to the beach and at half volume it's enough for people 50 feet away to hear. Would buy again and recommend 100%. Oh, and the battery life is not too shabby, either!

    This is my first portable speaker so I don’t have a anything to compare it to. That being said I absolutely love this thing. Having read various reviews pros and cons equally I can say that Flip 5 exceeds my expectations fully. The speaker is user friendly and has some heft to it while not being all together clunky. The sound quality is top notch too. The bass is powerful & the overall loudness is strikingly good. I don’t know yet how long it holds a charge but it came right of the package ready to go. Highly recommended!

    JBL Flip 5 - On the fence with this one!

    This is my 4th JBL Flip speaker...the first of the Flip 5 generation. Easy to pair with solid sound from such a small speaker. The JBL software allows you to link several speakers together too. The software is fairly easy to figure out...could be easier and I'm hoping that JBL continues to improve the app. My only complaint is overall quality. Every one of my prior speakers has died: 1 had batteries that went bad after ~1 year and the other 2 had both failed batteries (after ~1 year) as well as blown speakers. (Note: I'm not a huge bass or super loud kind of person, so it's not from playing music too loud!). Overall, not a bad speaker...may need to explore other options if this one fails!

    I purchased this because I needed something loud for workouts. I am glad I bought this. It connects to my iphone 13 without an issue. It is LOUD enough where it keeps everyone busy in my household. I went to a party the other day and carried this with me. It is light and well made. I turned it out and it surprised everyone because how loud it was. I would definitely buy another one to gift my siblings because they loved it.

    JBL Rocks!

    I have been buying a JBL Bluetooth speakers every year for the past 6 years. Every year they get progressively better and the Flip 5 did not disappoint. This is the best sounding Flip yet. The sound is definitely crisper/clearer than the previous year and is able to compete with the much higher priced Bluetooth speakers. In addition, I can daisy chain my JBL speakers together for additional volume if needed. This is the best bang for the buck by far in Bluetooth speakers.
