Doesn’t pair with Flip 4
on July 24, 2019
Posted by: zapufast
from Pensacola, FL
People want to upgrade, not buy a whole new array of speakers. JBL lost my money when it won’t pair with Extreme 2 or Flip 4.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Speaker - Slight improvements From Flip 4
on July 29, 2019
Posted by: ben444
I had the JBL Flip 4 which was very solid, and then sold it for the Flip 5. This speaker has slightly more bass and a little bit more of a low/mid range than the Flip 4. I compared the two side by side and you could tell the sound was a bit more distinct, the Flip 4 sounding more tin can like. Not a huge difference. I do miss the triple click on the play button to replay the song or skip to previous track. This seems to only have the skip feature with the double press.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Battery not as advertised

Bought the flip 5 last week. I will be returning it as the battery did not even last a full round of golf (5hrs) at max volume.

We appreciate your feedback about our JBL Flip 5. Our speakers' playtime would vary depending on the volume you're playing the music. The suggested '12 hours' is just an average of how long the speaker can go on, knowing that it is played at mid-volume. If you have questions or other concerns, please reach us through this link: http://bit.ly/2lIab0A.

Solid Sound from Small Package
on August 29, 2019
Posted by: Whatareview
from San Antonio, TX, United States
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been reviewing this speaker for about a week and a half. This speaker has a great sound which last all 8 hrs I was playing it and still had battery left. The speaker is really loud but does distort at top volume depending on music style. I really like the look of the red speaker as you can see in pictures. I was unable to try the waterproofing but sure it works just as all other features do. I feature I can't wait to try and most interesting is the Party Boost. To connect and stream to several speakers. I can't wait to hear that sound. Overall a great speaker with really good features and sound.
I would recommend this to a friend!

How is it an improvement to offer fewer features and capabilities? I would love to see your market research that says your customer base wants devices with LESS functionality!

No Microphone = No speakerphone

You can't make downgrades without saying it. I had the Flip 4 and it was obvious that it would have a microphone.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
