JBLFlip 5 Bundle, Black (Pack of 2)

These JBL speakers are great! I've tried many other sets, and returned all of them because of poor quality sound. I'm relieved to have finally found a quality set for a decent price. These are just what I needed, to have music playing from my Spotify in multiple rooms of my house via Blutooth. With the JBL app, you can play your music in PARTY MODE (both speakers sound the same, to play in separate rooms) or STEREO MODE (for a surround sound experience, for a movie) AND you can play them individually. In terms of sound quality, these are the best on the market for their size. Great quality sound, projection, volume range and and bass! I got the white, and I like the minimal design and material feel. I like them so much, I might buy another set, because you can pair up to 100 speakers, says the app. The only downfall is pairing with the app is a little tricky- a few more steps than I'd prefer- but easy enough to figure out. Overall, I highly recommend this speaker set!

I bought this 2pack because it made each speaker cheaper than buying 2 individually. Did I need 2? No. Did I need to buy 3 more JBL speakers after these two? No. Did I do all of this anyway? Absolutely.Important notes: These use PartyBoost, NOT Connect or Connect+, and will not connect to older speakers. At time of review, the only JBL speakers on PartyBoost are the Flip 5, Pulse 4, and Boombox 2.Given that these are intended to be portable, you can only expect so much from sound quality. They're much better than my previous BT speaker, which is nice. And being able to have mini surround sound with partyboost is real nice. Having them charge via USB C rather than USB Micro is a big draw. They get plenty loud and remain clear when you blast them. Don't expect the same quality you'd get out of a thousand dollar speaker and you'll be plenty happy.Drawbacks:-These use Bluetooth 4.2 instead of 5.x. It's a bit of a confusing choice, but all BT is backwards compatible, so it's not much of an issue. And it's so much better than my previous speaker. I can actually step a few feet away without them immediately cutting out! but using the newest standard would have been cool.-One of the two occasionally "chirps". Just a really quick short beep. This happens so infrequently that I can't tell if it's a manufacturing defect, a bluetooth hiccup, or maybe an issue with PartyBoost? The one I have connected directly to my phone does not seem to chirp, but the one connected via PartyBoost does. But I can listen all day and MAYBE hear it once or twice. Quite possibly not at all. Not enough to turn me off, but enough to be a tad annoying.Overall very pleased!

--But I looked into renting some old-school PA system-style speakers for a backyard BBQ and the cost of renting two speakers was roughly equivalent to purchasing a pair of these babies. GREAT DECISION ON MY PART.SHOCKINGLY loud and definitely higher quality sound than I was expecting. Also the gray model pictured is roughly the size of a can of Tennis balls and practically invisible in low light. I stationed two on opposite sides of the yard and pulled the music up on my phone while my wife was watching and it was so loud and immersive it felt like I was doing a magic trick.Also the EASIEST bluetooth speakers I've ever used. Quick intuitive pairing and very easy to add a second (or chain) of speakers to the first, for parties or surround sound in a room. Thinking about getting a third for true immersion, but to be honest, two of them are already as loud as the PA system I considered renting. Loud enough that we will absolutely disturb our neighbors, but they're cool and I'm going to give them a heads up.BTW, do not use these at the beach. They're waterproof, but everyone at the beach will hate you. I will hate you. Don't ruin the beach. These are for your own spaces after you talk to your neighbors.

These speakers pair easily with your iPhone or iPad. Then you can connect up to 100 other speakers to them. I leave one next to my iPad and then connect the second one to take it out on the deck the speakers have great range when connected to each other. They get wicked loud and when on lower volume sound good too for background music. Good product!

I have Bose speakers that don’t sink together- I love the sound quality, easy to connect to my phone, but when pairing the speaker together can be a little hard on your thumbs holding the button down and waiting for them to pair. The battery life is long I would purchase these again.

I have had multiple generations of this speaker and they are always great! I love that this generation lets you link them, that was my favorite! We took these to the beach and they were so great! Battery stays full for a long time, they are so easy to carry, and the sound is awesome!

I purchased the set of 2 JBL flip Bluetooth speakers. I was really hopeful for these to be a great set of linkable Bluetooth speakers. I used to own an Dj business with thousands of dollars in gear, all JBL, and those speakers worked great for years. After 3 months, I feel like I can give an honest review. The link function is seamless 80% of the time. The sound is crisp if you set these in adjacent corners of a room. Unfortunately, that’s where the pros end. Pairing often doesn’t work with even one speaker and I have to re-pair. Sometimes linking just doesn’t happen without multiple attempts. The app doesn’t improve any aspect of this. The sound will often cut out. Overall, the price here isn’t justified because I’ve had better experiences with much cheaper off brand speakers. At this point, I do not recommend purchasing the JBL flip Bluetooth speakers.

We have an old 300 disc CD player which had been hooked up to very large (circa 1990) wired speakers. We didn't want to ditch the CD player, but didn't want the wired speakers any more. So, we purchased a bluetooth transmitter and a pair of these speakers. They paired easily and work great. Fantastic sound. We can now also take our speakers outside when we're hanging out in the back yard. Highly recommend!
