I bought the flip 5 a couple of months ago, then bought the flip 7 specifically so I old connect the two for a stereo affect .i have the app and can not connect them ,I thought i could connect them but can’t! This should be stated somewhere in the advertisement, instead of leading me to believe I could connect them

Thank you for your feedback. Stereo mode requires two identical units, so you'll need an additional JBL Flip 5. Our JBL Flip 7 features Auracast, as listed on our website, for connecting to other Auracast-compatible speakers.
This was to replace my aging JBL Flip 5. I knew JBL was the way to go from the 5 but this Flip 7 is even better. Great sound, great battery life, and compact enough to go with me wherever life takes us (it fits in a cup holder).
I mostly use this while cooking or in the shower, but it works perfectly. Very clear sound, good bass especially compared to my old Flip 4. I actually like the app so that I can change the balancing for speech to listen to audiobooks! It is everything I wanted it to be.
I bought this to replace the old JBL I have. The sound is good and it is a nice portable speaker. The downside is it came with no charging cable. I had to buy one to charge my speakers. For the price it should have came with something to charge it with.

Thank you so much for your review and for choosing JBL again to replace your older speaker! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the sound quality and portability of your new Flip 7. We understand your point about the charging cable and appreciate you sharing your feedback. To help reduce electronic waste and because many of our customers already have several USB-C cables from other devices, new JBL products like the Flip 7 no longer include a charging cable in the box. The speaker is compatible with any standard USB-C cable, which you were able to use. We do try to make this clear in the product information, but we understand this can be an adjustment. We hope you continue to enjoy the fantastic sound of your Flip 7 for years to come!
This was a birthday present for my 19 year son. We have accumulated multiple blue tooth speakers over the years for use indoors and outdoors, at the beach, or pool but I'd say this one is hands down the best. The quality of the sound is spectacular and we are looking forward to using a lot this summer..
