I've purchased other JBL speakers in the past and this one was exactly what I was looking for when it came to death of sound and battery life. And it being waterproof was just an amazing feature
I bought two Flip5s because we want music in stereo in our small living space. I got the app to allow stereo sound for about two minutes before it reverted to just Partyboost mode. Not a bad sound, just not a stereo sound. The speakers themselves as a stand-alone product are pretty great for Bluetooth. Nice round sound with a bit of bottom.
I would give 5 stars if the app didn’t suck so much, and by that I mean it sucks so much.
I bought the pink JBL for my little brother, the musician’s 24th birthday! He was so excited!! He takes it everywhere he goes and absolutely loves it. He gets a lot of compliments on the unique color.
I keep playing my speakers I’m an everyday music listener, since day one I’ve bought it it has this skipping at first I thought maybe the connection, but no I switched back to my flip 4 and it plays just fine , very upset over this I’m guna start a refund!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This was the first speaker I've ever purchased and I am very happy with my decision! It's been super easy to cary around with me and I'm not worried about it getting rained on which is such a nice feature. I would recommend this to anyone who just wants a portable, not bulky speaker to have around. Also EXTREMELY easy to set up!
