Better than expected

Bought 2 of these for Mother’s Day with a custom pic on each. While 1 was a gift and have not seen it yet, I have seen the one I gave my wife. Only complain is the red metal JBL logo on the front is scuffed, probably due to the painting process. Other than that, it was better than expected and the speaker sounds great for being so small.
The custom design on the speaker came out great! The sound is also great for the price and the size. If you’re looking for heavy duty studio base, then I’d invest in a more studio based speaker. But this is great as a leisure/at home or in an average size room!
I was so excited for this one. I decided to go with the flip 5 instead of flip 4 (newer is better right? WRONG.) although it’s a nice speaker, I wanted to get it to be able to link it to my current JBL charge 4. So upset that they put party boost (what is the difference) instead of connect+ and I even got it personalized so now I can’t return it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The Bluetooth range of our products varies. You should get up to 10 - 15 meters when using JBL Flip 5 indoors. When using the speaker outside, conditions vary based on the surroundings. For the best connectivity results, please make sure that the devices have a clear line of sight between them.
I received the JBL Flip 5 as a Mother’s Day gift from my husband. It packs a lot of volume and I love it! I’ll be taking it everywhere we go. Best part it’s personalized with one of my favorite pictures of myself!
