    Does Not Sync Well With A Second Speaker

    The sound is very good for ONE speaker. I purchased two of these speakers to take advantage of the ability to sync them together for mutli-speaker sound. They sync together fairly easily but the sound is quickly ruined by the speakers constantly going in and out. The speakers stop and start playing, and they crackle over and over again. Battery life seems to be inconsistent. After charging overnight one battery drained in just minutes. Other times the battery was fine. I'll be returning these and buying something better. It's a good deal for one speaker but trying to leverage two speakers is a complete waste of money.

    The speaker sounded nice when it worked. 16 days after purchase it died. Highly disappointed because I couldn't return it back to the Best Buy store due to the 15 day return policy (Which is an inconvenience.) I'm hopeful to submit a claim through the JBL website. Next time, I will purchase an item like this from Target or Walmart where they have a 30 day return policy.

    I thought it would be bigger for the cost. My hand is actually longer than this speaker. It might be ok for a cubical desk speaker.

    This is a very similar product as the Ultimate Ears. In a matter of preferences, this JBL model is lighter, and the range seems to hold up for longer distances. Bass, volume, and other properties are similar.

    This is my third JBL bluetooth speaker I have purchased and I love them all. Apparently my family does too because them keep taking mine. This time I got bright red maybe I can hang on to it.

    Excellent Audio Quality. JBL Flip 5 is good enough speaker for you to carry anywhere. Only low point would be low bass and they could have improved it in Flip 6
