This is a well built speaker. I bought it because I work in the steel industry and can use it in the Crane when I'm working. I also am a Whitewater guide and wanted something waterproof to bring with me.
I was exiting the Crane after a twelve and a half hour night shift so my relief could take over. I grabbed on my gear and thought I had secured the speaker with a carabiner I have attached to it. When climbing up the stairs of the Crane cab the speaker slipped and fell about 35 feet onto the concrete ground and we have stacks of steel everywhere. I thought for sure it was toast.
After searching for it, I found where it had bounced to. The case had widened on the seem about 2 mm and there was a little dent in the side of the speaker. I snapped it back together and turned it on. The speaker still works LOL! CRAZY! Im guessing it's not water proof anymore but I am happy. Great product JBL, thank you.
It's been a few months with my flip 6 and it is amazing for the size. I can easily carry it anywhere and it produces deep bass too. The app connectivity is also a nice feature to adjust EQ.
The sounds are great packs a punch. Word of advice: On the personalized model, don’t do what I did and let the logo cover your face. Otherwise, more than expected from this little tube
had the flip 5 for many years and it was awesome, but it got stolen so i had to get a new one. the quality of the flip 6 is significantly worse. it doesn't hold battery and it makes a static noise every 45 seconds when playing music

Thank you for providing your feedback on our JBL Flip 6. Try to do a forced power cycle on your JBL Flip 6 by holding the power button for 30 seconds while it's not connected to a power supply or charger. You may also try using a different USB cable and chargers rated at least 2-amp. See if there's any sand or dirt in the speaker's charging port, then clean it with compressed air. We also recommend doing a factory reset with the speaker powered on, press and hold the Volume + and Play buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds until the unit turns off. If the issue remains, please contact our customer support. We're here to help.
