Battery life sucks for what I use it for
on June 20, 2020
Posted by: gwilkes
from Knoxville, TN
I do dishes & yes the speaker is great & the sound quality & volume is decent. But I’m giving it a one star Bc it’s definitely not reliable like what’s the point of having speaker of it can’t even last shift. I can’t sign into my account to send it back which sucks. I’m pretty disappointed & upset. I tried resetting my password & everything & it says it doesn’t recognize it. Well how are you guys able to send me emails, but you don’t recognize my email for me to even reset a password. That’s confusing & annoying.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Solid Sound from Small Package

[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!

I was incredibly impressed, and my wife was too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was incredibly impressed with this speaker. It was shockingly loud, with solid build quality and the packaging and design of the product being from recycled material just makes you feel good about it. I couldn’t believe the put out this speaks has. It was incredibly loud and more than loud enough to get the party rolling in my backyard and front yard depending on where we were.
What might be extremely important to note, my wife usually hates when I am auditioning something new, and she’s never impressed. This time around she was extremely happy, and pleased. She sat with me for an hour and jammed out. She wanted to chose the songs and hear how they sounded on it. She thoroughly enjoyed it.
Connectivity is very good and quick, and the battery lasts a very long time. The build quality is really impressive!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] JBL Bluetooth Speaker Box
I opened it.
I opened it.
Packed in a rigid box
This can prevent damage to the product.
Sponge inside the box
The product is wrapped well.
Prevent product damage on the go.
The components are simple.
Speaker body, manual, charging cab le
The buttons are intuitively laid out
It is convenient to use.
Most of all, the FLIP5 has a clear charge indicator, and the part connecting the charger is external.
There is a waterproof function
Regardless of location or weather
I can listen to music.
JBL Bluetooth speaker for excellent grip
Amazingly powerful sound
JBL FLIP Bluetooth speakers let you listen to music in clear sound no matter where you are.
Very satisfied “FLIP5” Bluetooth speaker!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Powerful Bass-Heavy Sound
on September 15, 2021
Posted by: Jlindsey93
from Raleigh, NC
I purchased this within the last couple of weeks. So far so good. It is much louder than my Bose Soundlink Color 2s that I have. The sound goes out in all directions, which is a nice feature that in my opinion should be standard for all portable Bluetooth speakers. It handles my heavy (and I mean heavy) metal music with ease. And yet it’ll also play the clearest melodies with crisp, clear sound. I love the camouflage color that I got; something about the pattern just spoke to me. I haven’t given the battery the full test (aka, letting it drain all the way down), but it seems to hold a charge plenty long, at least for my listening needs. Of course the waterproof and dustproof factors are an added bonus. I am quite happy with this speaker. I just hope nothing breaks down on me!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

With partyboost I can't link it whit older models and bluetooth 4.2 is too old
Response from jbl.comBy Shad @ Customer Support, Customer Support, September 2, 2019
Our JBL Party Boost is an improved version of our JBL Connect+, which improves the Bluetooth reliability of interspeaker connections. It's not backwards compatible with the JBL Connect or Connect+ in older models.
