Exceeded my expectations!

I bought this 2 weeks ago and absolutely I’ve it. It’s my third speaker and hopefully my last. It sounds so good and although small it’s loud! Excellent and would totally buy again.
This speaker sounds fabulous when only one is playing. Unfortunately for me, I bought four with the understanding that all for could link through party mode. If you have a party with these speakers you will spend the evening apologizing to your guests for all the spotty cut outs in the music (I know because I have). The connection when in party mode is not worth using so if you’re buying for purposes of party mode (like I was) then don’t waste your money.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thanks for taking the time in providing your feedback with our JBL Flip 5. We're always looking for ways to improve. It's always recommended that there be a clear line of sight between the connected devices to have a stable connection. Other wireless signals like WiFi, Bluetooth, and also blockages from walls can cause interference. If you need any help with our products, please reach out to our Customer Support.
This speaker might be ok if you listen to only pop or r&b; however if you want to listen to anything else, forget it, all you get is heavy bass and mid’s. Returning it ASAP!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for taking the time in providing your feedback with our JBL Flip 5. We're always looking for ways to improve. You can use an equalizer from the app you're using to adjust the speaker depending on your preference. You may also take advantage of our self-service options to return the unit if it was purchased from our website here: https://www.jbl.com/support-returns-and-warranty.html
It sounds awesome and is generally easy to work. However, when my computer or phone is connected to any other bluetooth device (e.g., a wireless keyboard), it struggles to maintain the connection and gets super choppy, or will sometimes randomly get choppy or disconnect even when none of my other devices are connected or turned on. The JBL Flip 4 was more reliable.

We appreciate the feedback you've provided to us. We understand that our JBL Flip 5 didn't meet your expectations. To avoid signal interference, please note that Our Flip 5 has a maximum Bluetooth range of 10 - 15 meters, with no large objects blocking the line of sight. A distance farther than that would pose signal deterioration. Please reach out to our Customer Support if you have concerns, we're here to help: https://support.jbl.com/us/en/
This device works really well, the sound is clear and loud. The color I bought is "Pink" and it most definitely is not pink. It is more like a nude or muave.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I got this today and I am blown away. I can't put it down. The quality is premium, Sound, and bass are amazing. This is my first JBL product and I am blown away by it.
I am attempting to contact JBL but this speaker is a gift at Christmas and is less than 2 weeks old. It will not take a charge or turn on
