Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback.
Good sound, nice design but stupid programming. When connected to AUX input in "low frequency" mode, it enters auto-standby just after seconds of silence. If a song has a quiet period, this ruins everything! A significant bump is required to kick it out of standby. This also spoils the first tones of every track I play because standby auto-enables between tracks. Very disappointed. Durability is average because USB port has failed on my Flip2 and Flip3. No doubt it will fail on Flip4 sooner or later. However, considering the issue above, I may get rid of it before it fails.
Great speaker, love the sound, weight, specs, EXCEPT for the annoying start-up noise. I use it in my office, everyone around me knows when I turn on the speaker. It is so incredibly loud. I think JBL should allow users who use their app to release a firmware update to allow a setting to disable the startup noise. I know when it is connected to my device, I don't need a very loud sound to let everyone else know also. Would be 4 stars and I would recommend this product if the startup noise was a setting.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I purchased this two months ago, so unhappy with this product. You boast a 12 hour play time. Best I ever got, new, fully charged, 4 hours. Now I'm lucky if I get 1 1/2 hours of play time when fully charged. To me it's just garbage that I spend more time charging then I do listening to.
