Little powerhouse
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This speaker has unparalleled sound quality and is loud enough to be easily heard in most environments such as constructive, etc. The Bluetooth range is a lot further that the 30' advertised. More like 70 ' in open areas. Its well built and durable. You cant go wrong for the price in my opinion.

Very Disappointing

Not worth the money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bluetooth speaker costing over $100 and not being able to sustain a proper connection with my phone was just a big disappointment and problem. I'd walk 10 ft most and it would begin to studder. My previos speaker was a Cambridge sound works speaker the connection was 30ft ++ and only cost $25. Hence why I decided to return this one. Not worth the hassle or the money

Happy with refurbished speaker

I would recommend this to a friendDoes not last 12 hours
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I exchanged the JBL flip 5 for a replacement one hoping the 1st one was defective. But the replacement does not last 12 hours either. Max used time is 5 hrs before needing to charge. Very disappointed it does not last the 12 hours as indicated.
