Review: Speaker - I absolutely love this speaker! The military camo color gives it a cool, rugged look, and the sound quality really impressed me. First of all, the sound is amazing for its size. It’s loud, clear, and the bass is strong without sounding distorted. It easily fills a room or outdoor space, making it perfect for gatherings, beach days, or just listening to music at home. One of my favorite things is the battery life. It lasts around 12 hours, which is perfect for all-day use without worrying about charging it constantly. I was honestly surprised by how long it holds a charge. I also love that it’s waterproof (IPX7), so I don’t have to stress about splashes, rain, or using it near the pool. The build feels solid and durable, and it’s easy to carry anywhere. Overall, this speaker exceeded my expectations. The sound quality, battery life, and stylish camo design make it totally worth it. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a portable speaker with powerful sound and long-lasting performance. 🔊✨
Review: Great portable speaker - JBL does it again. Nice compact speaker. Has great sound. Easy to connect via Bluetooth. If you crank it, it is loud and distortion free. The bass does get a little lost when playing at high volume. Great bass sound mid to low volume. Liked it so much, bought a 2nd one for my wife. Battery charge holds for long time, haven't gone 12 hrs as stated, but seems like will go that long. Charges reasonably quick. Great value for the money in my opinion. Waterproof for up to 30 minutes (haven't tested that yet LOL).

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it loud enough to be heard on a boat?**
A: If you're parked at a sandbar and place it on the dash you can hear it well outside the boat, that's how we use ours and it saves our boat battery. If you're cruising at low speed you can still hear it but its not that enjoyable, and at faster speeds the engine and wind noise will drown it out, hope that helps.

**Q: can you take calls from this speakers and talk?**
A: No, this speaker does not include a microphone. The JBL flip 4 did but the 5 no longer includes this feature.

**Q: Can I answer my phone with this speaker?**
A: I'm with JVF here...one of the reason I chose this model, is it doesn't.  My current speaker does, and it half pi_ses me off, every time a call comes in, cuts the music out (then I fumble to turn off the BT on my phone so I can answer the call, without everyone within 100ft ease dropping).  Thanks JBL!!!

**Q: Is there a clever way to connect this to my TV as if it were a soundbar?**
A: The Flip 5 will connect to your mobile phone, desktop, laptop, and tablet. As far as connecting to a TV may I suggest you look into the JBL 2.0 soundbar All-in-One so there's no lagging when you're watching your TV.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not that small, but definitely mighty!
*by A***R on April 1, 2026*

It’s not a large speaker, but it’s a terrific speaker. Has all the range you would want, with sufficient bass and presence. I use it mostly in the bathroom, where it sounds fabulous, but also move it around the house as it sounds better than any of my Alexa devices. It feels really solid, and well built. Great value for the money.
