JBL Flip 5
on December 6, 2020
Posted by: subinzs
from dubai
we expect an software update with flip 5 which can pair with other speakers, else it will be a cheating to customers and it will lose the credibility of JBL
for those customers who are planning to buy, please think and buy, because flip 5 have not compatable with their other speakers, may be its their new strategy of getting sale.
but customers are not stupid

Thanks for taking the time in providing your feedback on our JBL Flip 5. As Bluetooth technology improves, so do our portable products. Our JBL Flip 5 has our PartyBoost feature, it is only compatible to be connected with other speakers that have the same feature like Boombox 2, Pulse 4, and Xtreme 3. If you need any assistance with our products, please reach out to our Customer Support.

Bluetooth range
on December 18, 2020
Posted by: Hellopeople
The speaker works just fine, the problem is just the range that the speaker has with your phone. With all my other Bluetooth devices I can be several feet away and play music and the sound will be crystal clear. With this, I can only step about 10-12 feet and the speaker starts sputtering or cutting in and out while the music plays and it kills the vibe. But overall not a bad speaker.

Party mode is embarrassingly bad
on January 23, 2021
Posted by: Spottysounds1
from Florida
This speaker sounds fabulous when only one is playing. Unfortunately for me, I bought four with the understanding that all for could link through party mode. If you have a party with these speakers you will spend the evening apologizing to your guests for all the spotty cut outs in the music (I know because I have). The connection when in party mode is not worth using so if you’re buying for purposes of party mode (like I was) then don’t waste your money.

Thanks for taking the time in providing your feedback with our JBL Flip 5. We're always looking for ways to improve. It's always recommended that there be a clear line of sight between the connected devices to have a stable connection. Other wireless signals like WiFi, Bluetooth, and also blockages from walls can cause interference. If you need any help with our products, please reach out to our Customer Support.

Personalized Flip 5
on February 5, 2021
Posted by: Lavarocks
I got the custom jbl flip 5 and oh man does it look really good. The only two negative things I can think of is that it does smell like something (fresh ink?) and that the colors on the speaker look wet,
but they don't actually rub off on anything. I imagine as time goes on the smell will go away as well as the speaker looking wet.

Love love LOVE this speaker

This was a Xmas gift for my ultra picky husband. He keeps telling me how much he loves this speaker. The sound really is impressive, and we can take of out on our boat and not worry about it getting wet. Definitely worth the price
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great clarity even at maxed volume
on February 18, 2021
Posted by: LadyFace
from Ohio
I got this speaker for work. It's was very loud at home. Unfortunately I work in a very loud factory so I wasn't able to hear it if I got very far away. I gave a good rating though because it is a good speaker and would be great for any other setting, just not with earplugs and a bunch of machines, hammering metal pieces etc. Though I will be returning this speaker, I will be sticking with JBL. The clarity is awesome. Even at max volume it does not peak on highs or mid range.
