JBL FLIP 5, Waterproof Portable Bluetooth Speaker, Black, Small

I’ve been using the JBL FLIP 5 for a few months now, and I can confidently say it’s one of the best portable Bluetooth speakers in its price range. It is sleek and rugged, with a sturdy build that feels durable and high quality. It’s compact enough to throw in a backpack, making it ideal for everything from beach trips to backyard BBQs.The sound quality is impressive for a speaker this size. The bass is deep without being overpowering, and the mids and highs come through crisp and clear.One of the best features is the IPX7 waterproof rating. I’ve taken it poolside, to the lake, with no issues at all.The battery life is another win. JBL advertises up to 12 hours of playtime, and it easily hits that mark on a full charge. I can take it out for the day without worrying about plugging it in.Bluetooth pairing is quick and doesn't lose connection.If you’re looking for a speaker that can keep up with your lifestyle and deliver excellent audio wherever you go, this one’s a no-brainer!!

My husband bought one of these JBL flip 5 Bluetooth speakers when he was out of town working so his work crew could listen to music while working. Well when he came home I borrowed his to take to work, I am a nurse at a small nursing home and my residents love to listen to music they will come out of their rooms and sit at their doorways so they can hear my music from my flip 5 speaker that I sit on top of my med cart in the hallway and all my residents can hear such great quality music from such a little device. I will even dance in the hallway with them even if they are in wheelchairs or can stand. It is amazing what some good peppy music does for even the elderly people, I can see their whole attitudes change and the smiles on their faces are priceless. One resident that recently passed away from COVID, was sitting in her doorway months ago as I had my flip 5 on and music playing and I asked her who was her favorite musician or song and I like to fell out when this elderly Caucasian female said Michael Jackson and song was Billie Jean so I looked it up on my phone and played it for her and she was in a wheelchair but she still patted her foot to the music and tapped her hand and fingers on her table and at times I could hear her singing along and this made me so happy to do this for her we had a great time that Sunday afternoon and a memory I will never forget This awesome little cute speaker charges up quickly just a few hours and good to go and I have used mine for a whole 8 plus shift even if not playing music it would still be on and I have yet to hear any low battery beeps etc. My husband loves that they are waterproof because of him working outside in the dirt and rain. He said what sold him on buying one for him was a friend he worked with had one also and forgot his hanging on the basket on a line truck and the next morning he got it and had dirt and mud on it so he took it over to the water hose and washed it off and all the dirt and mud can completely off and the water didn't do anything to this flip 5 speaker he shook it as dry as he could get it then hung it back on his bucket on his line truck and turned it on and worked just as good as before. I say if u love music and love even sharing music with others this little speaker is highly recommended by me and my husband. It is simple to connect to his and my iPhones. The buttons on the speakers are very easy to press and can be easily seen on the speaker. Also the volume can be adjusted by my iPhone volume buttons too. It makes the cutest sound when connecting to my phone which tells me is is connected. Never had an issue with it disconnecting for no reason. The range is good that is the range that my cell phone is from the speaker never had an issue with that I play music on it and put my cell in my scrub pocket and I am up and down the hallways and in rooms with doors closed and music keeps playing. I can't think of one problem/issue or complaint about this JBL flip 5 speaker. Worth the money and my residents appreciate me spending this small amount of money for them to have some happiness in their day and I do too. My husband bought his from a person advertising a used one wanting to sell when he was up north working I think he bought his for $50 dollars but I always use my Amazon prime so in case I don't like something I buy or have an issue I can return free and free 2 day shipping. And not very much more did I pay here for mine. I got pink and it is a pale pink not bright pink. I like it. I don't know if my managers at the nursing home that I work at would care or not about me playing music over my speaker but even if they did I would probably still sneak and do it because of the reactions I get from my elderly confused residents the smiles on their faces is why I would go against what a manager tells me not to do and do it anyway. These residents don't get much joy to be honest esp since COVID and isolation since middle of March 2020. They are depressed because they can not see (except through a closed window in their rooms) and can not touch their loved ones we that work there and love everyone of our residents don't replace the touch and hugs ans kisses they would be getting from the people they love the most in this world their children and grandchildren and even great grandchildren we have had residents pass away and they and their families haven't seen or touched since COVID and these are precious memories they can never get back it is depressing to me and I play music to keep all our minds off this depressing situation we are in right now and this little speaker helps me do this and is powerful enough to be heard from my med cart all the way down hallways and inside rooms. So even the residents that are bedridden can still hear some good music. So if u like good quality sound that can come from a small well built Bluetooth speaker that won't break your wallet then please buy this one. It also has a rope handle that my husband uses to hang his off the side of his bucket and it be out of his way. He is a lineman and stands in a bucket with limited room up high off the ground sometimes all day long so the rope handle is strong enough to hang this Light weight speaker from a hook and no worries of it breaking. Also I have accidentally dropped my speaker out of my nursing bad onto the cement floor in the nursing home and scared me because I would have been sick if it had broke my awesome speaker but turned it on and worked as usual I dropped it outside in the parking lot and no issues. Hope my review helps you realize this speaker is a good buy and u will be happy u did buy this one. Thanks

The JBL Flip 5 delivers impressive sound quality in a compact, portable design. I’ve taken it to the pool, beach, and hiking trips, and it handles moisture and splashes without missing a beat thanks to its waterproof rating. The bass is surprisingly strong for its size, and the Bluetooth connection is stable up to a good distance.Battery life lasts all day on moderate volume, making it ideal for outdoor gatherings. The rugged build feels durable, and the speaker is easy to carry with its built-in strap.Tip: Connect two Flip 5 speakers using JBL’s PartyBoost feature for stereo sound.

The speaker came as promised, and it was in great condition. No issues, and I am happy with the purchase. I ordered it as a late father's day gift for my dad that was away on vacation and wanted to surprise him. I wasn't sure what to get him and I remembered that he needed a Bluetooth speaker so it was perfect. I ordered it last minute and it was delivered a day before he returned from his vacation.

Omg!! The JBL speaker is really the truth. This speaker is better than the BOSE, BEATS etc. I am so shocked at how clear and smooth the sound is!! The BASE IS CRAZY! I cant wait to take it to the beach and listen to my WORSHIP MUSIC. Im a worshipper and needed something small and wireless. This truly EXCEEDED my EXPECTATIONS!! I cant explain how happy I am with this speaker. The best wireless bluetooth I have EVER purchased. No lie it sounds like a car stereo in my house.

This JBL speaker was used by one of my friends at a get together and we loved it so much that I know I had to buy it …. She sent me a link on Amazon! I use it not only for gatherings but for my own listening pleasure while I’m at home …I pair with Spotify … . I can hear the music whichever room I am in - good sound system - an excellent buy for me!

doesn't want to stay connected via bluetooth to some of the apps on the computer. but it has a GREAT sound quality and volume, especially for the size. very clear sound

I have owned my Flip 5 for six years now and it is wonderful ! It’s used almost daily . It holds a charge like forever it seems . Sound quality is top notch , bass response amazing . It’s also a tough little unit as I’ve dropped it several times yet still performs fine . Connects to blue tooth quickly and never looses signal . Definitely a winner of a product !!!
