These are most excellent traveling speakers. They replace two Flip 4s that finally started failing - base sound started producing popping and rattling noises. The only issue I have with these speakers, which is basically the same issue I had with the Flip 4s, is the documentation. Setting up a single speaker is described but not two speakers. For anyone reading this with two speakers, the process is:
- Pair one speaker to the streaming device but not the second speaker. - With both speakers on, press the Connect/Partyboost button (∞) on both speakers (not the Bluetooth button).
JBL could do us a lot of good by adding this simple two step process to the Quick Start Guide and save many of us a lot of headache.
When biking I have it on full volume and I don't believe I will get 3 hours of usage out of it with a full charge. I did buy the 3 year warranty, so I will monitor it.
This packs quite the punch for a such a small package. The perfect companion for trips, campsite or just chilling and hanging out in the backyard or front porch.
