Terrible Feature and product upgrade
on January 15, 2023
Posted by: AnthonyH124
JBL just ruined their products. They decided to rebrand the connect+ feature as “party boost” and discontinued support of the now legacy connect+ feature. What a terrible brand move. I own a lot of apple products and even my old iPad mini still supports all the apple features across ALL my old and new products. Makes my life Simple and keeps me brand loyal. Now I have some older JBL speakers that can’t pair with this JBL Flip 5. Never buying JBL again.

Beware of design

from Santa Maria California
I didn’t get the design I wanted and instead of telling me it wouldn’t work. They just sent the basic design without telling me.

Terrible Bluetooth reception, it gets worse if you buy another to hear in stereo(there is only 1 speaker vs 2 on my old charge2+. Bluetooth so bad i ditched the flip 5’s and fixed my old charge2+…. These flip 5’a total garbage without good Bluetooth-save your mone, i wish i didn’t fall for the sale prices. No wonder these go on sale all the time.

Thanks for your feedback. Please note that for stereo functionality using the PartyBoost feature, it is essential that both JBL speakers are of identical models.

Stay away from the Flip Series of Products
on January 9, 2024
Posted by: BernerButch
from SF California area
Flip 4 and 5 Reviews. Over a four year period I purchased two Flip 4’s and one Flip 5 Waterproof speakers. This will be short and not so sweet. My Flip 4 I loved everything about it! Great sound, portability and easy to sync! I had it about a year and bought another, Flip 4 for home and one for the cabin. Shortly after I bought a Flip 5 Waterproof then for our trailer. Within the next year both Flip 4’s would play for about less the an hour and it would shut off. I would turn them back on and the they’d shut off with 10-15 minutes! The identical symptom of playing fine then shutting down occurred then for my Flip 5 Waterproof! I use to be a major fan JBL products but no more! My first JBL speaker was a pair of JBL 100’s in 1977 and I gifted them to my son and he still has them and they sound great! However this experience taught me to never purchase another JBL product. My recommendation is to stay away from Flip products.
