Review: Awesome speaker! - Awesome speaker! I didn’t realize how much I would love this! The sound quality is amazing! Easy to pair with my iPhone! Easy to charge and hold a charge a long time. Great value for the money! I plan to buy a case to carry it and also to secure it when traveling. Right now I put it in an oblong black toiletry bag and carry it when not in use. I bought the little wooden speaker stand and it secures it well on my bathroom counter. Portable! I would give it a 10 star rating if it were possible
Review: Long-Term Experience - I originally received the blue JBL Flip 5 as a Christmas gift a couple of years ago, and I loved it so much that I came back and bought a second one in pink. That’s probably the best compliment I can give this speaker! For such a compact speaker, it packs an incredible amount of sound. It’s loud, clear, and easy to take anywhere. Whether I’m at home, by the river, or hanging out with friends, it’s the perfect size to throw in a bag and go. I even accidentally dropped my first Flip 5 in the river (tubing and had to swim search for it lol) and it still worked perfectly afterward. The waterproof feature definitely lived up to its claims! The battery life is another thing I love. It lasts a long time, even with regular use, and when it does need charging, it charges pretty quickly. Overall, I’ve had nothing but great experiences with JBL. The Flip 5 has been reliable, durable, and well worth the money. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a portable Bluetooth speaker. <3333

## 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality for a reasonable price
*by S***E on May 13, 2026*

I love it! Great bass response. Very clear sound, even at increased volume. Although it is small, it fills a room. It is very portable and has a long battery life. I have bragged about it to my family and am going to purchase another one as a gift for someone special.
