Best Flip Ever

It was time to replace my Flip 3. The jump in bass / low end / boom, is incredible! Seems like I can run it forever before charging. Love the look / Shape!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very sharp sound

Sounds very good and has a good bass comparing to my previous jbl go. I wish it had some features to control the that bass because sometimes it's too loud.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this speaker to take with me on a rafting trip and well let's just say I fell out of the raft with all my gear including the speaker attached to my back pack still playing music after being submerged in the water for at least 15 minutes until I got back on my raft. This speaker is Awesome and was definitely worth the price
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thanks for posting a review. We're always looking for ways on how to improve our products. The Party Boost is an improved version of the JBL Connect+, which improves the Bluetooth reliability of interspeaker connections. However, it's not backward compatible with the JBL Connect or Connect+. We don't have any news yet if the connect+ speakers will have an upgrade to Partyboost. You can subscribe to our newsletter for the latest news and updates. https://www.jbl.com/support-contact.html

Great Speaker but Cmon JBL
on July 21, 2019

I waited and waited.....and waited for this speaker because I lost my Flip 4 and thought the Flip 5 would be around much earlier than late July.
So it finally comes and it has Partyboost that is not backward compatible with Connect+. Now I'm finding out the two features and how they connect use different hardware to do so and therefore a firmware update is most likely not possible so that partyboost and connect+ will become compatible.
Dont get me wrong this is a darn good speaker and the best in its category but...
NOW I am gonna get another Flip 4 to pair with my Charge 4 so I can party Connect+ style instead of Partyboost style.
And no Bluetooth 5.0?!?
Coming from a big fan - shame on you JBL

Android App does not play stereo mode

iOS JBL App plays Stereo mode with two Flip 5’s Android app only plays Party/Mono mode.
They sound great but without stereo mode on my Note 9 I'm disappointed.
