    Good sound quality but no optional remote to control volume. Would be nice if could use as a speaker phone.

    Easy to set up and connect. It is just a pity that it does not have an auxiliary cord connection port. I bought this for my mom who is not very tech savvy, so I had to set up the bluetooth connection for her (no issues here). I have only used this speaker indoors and the sound quality and volume are phenomenal, especially for its small size. It can be stably placed horizontally and vertically.

    Love this speaker. We take it to the beach or the lake. My niece held it underwater for a while and it didn’t have any issues.

    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

    The sound is good but compared to Bose, it lacks behind a bit. The design is good and the harness thing to hold is a nice touch. But on its main purpose which is music and sound, sometimes its like penetrating the ears going very loud and not soothing.

    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!
