JBL Flip 6 - Portable Bluetooth Speaker, powerful sound and deep bass, IPX7 waterproof, 12 hours of playtime, JBL PartyBoost for multiple speaker pairing for home, outdoor and travel (Black)

TLDR: Clear sound, enough base for a solid ‘thump’ (although it does drop the low-end notes), and 10+ hours of battery, depending on volume. I bought the Flip 6 to carry at work. I’ve had opportunity to compare it to several similar sized speakers, as well as other entries in the JBL series, and I can unconditionally recommend it IF you are looking for the specific niche it fills. The Flip is lightweight and small - about the maximum size and weight that could be toted comfortably hanging from a belt or backpack. It has enough bass to hit a great mid-beat (think reggaton drums), but low-end bass notes tend to get dropped. If portability isn’t a consideration, I recommend spending $30 or so more and picking up the Charge 5, which boasts about 30% more power, and almost double the battery life. On the other hand, the Flip is definitely the best I have seen for its size in terms of volume, range, and sound quality. It ought to be, for the price.

I love JBL overall, this speaker far surpasses what i had been holding onto ( my flip 4). My only reason for 4 stars is because the battery definitely doesn’t last 12 hours. I use it at work in the kitchen (13 hr shift) and normally get like 8-9 hours.

I debated whether to purchase this or the Beats Pill. I chose this one due to the water resistant aspect of the JBL Flip 6 and the fact that the recipient often uses the device while in the shower. We recently used this while completing general chores and noted the ease of setup/connection. The sound quality is good for a speaker this size. It easily filled a living room/ dining room with fair quality music. Note, the speaker does seem easy to roll over as the base is not very large. I have not had a chance to test the battery life and may update this review if it is an issue. I have actually purchased two of these devices. Happily, I noted the two devices can be connected for a stereo effect.

Excelente calidad de audio

You would think the sound is coming from a much larger speaker

This is a very well made device, but I cant get past the speaker rattle. I have to adjust most songs that I play by turning the bass down. Not so great for 100 bucks. I cant turn it up very loud, either, because the speaker rattle is really bad. So disappointing that I cant get rid of the rattle. I did not notice this until I used the speaker on my patio. It was a gift, and I didnt use it until the weather got nice. UGH.

Solid, quality audio for a fair price. I bought a used/like new one for $75 so I got a great deal but I would have still been satisfied paying $99 for it. Im still messing with different EQ settings on my phone that its paired to but it sounds pretty good so far. I use it in the shower primarily. The shape of it allows me to put it in a variety of places around the shower. Paired quickly to my Android phone with no complications. I like that it has a good battery level indicator on it. My only personal complaint is the power button is on the back so I have to pick it up each time in the shower to turn it on and off but thats a pretty minor complaint. I like the companion app. Extremely simple to adjust the EQ. I wish the battery level indicator on the app was more visible, but a minor complaint. Overall I would recommend this speaker at $99 or less.

The Flip 6 really surprised me. I seriously did not expect such big sound from such a small, portable speaker. For its size, the bass is pretty amazing. Its not boomy at all like cheap bass-boosted speakers, however, its not extremely tight like a studio monitor either. But for what it is it sounds pretty amazing. The mids do seem just a little scooped (just a little) but very clear. The highs are crisp, up front, and not fatiguing. The overall sound really is almost perfect. Is it flat? Oh, definitely not, but youre not buying this for mixing or critical listening. After a lot of testing I did use the app to bump the low and high EQ up one notch. For low to medium volumes this improves an already great sound a little more. I did not boost the mids even though they sound a little scooped as the jump from center to one notch sounds a little much to me. I have not tested this at very high volumes much as its not applicable to how I use it (I dont like really loud noise or music). Battery life, of course, is not 12 hours. I have been getting 7-8 hours at half volume or less. I did a couple of tests at 50% volume playing a mix of podcasts and music and got 6 hours when playing mostly music and about 8 hours when playing mostly podcasts. Good enough for me - I use it a total of about 2 hours a day, so this still gives me several days in between charges. Bluetooth range is excellent as are most bluetooth products made withing the last 5 years. Line if sight is at least 50 feet - I didnt test beyond that as I dont need it. Wall penetration is outstanding. I was outside on my upstairs porch using it while my phone was inside downstairs (both near a south facing wall) about 20 feet apart in a straight line though 1 floor, 1 interior wall, and 1 exterior wall. No skips, stutters or disconnects. Forgot to mention all my testing and use has been with an iPhone SE 3rd Gen. I dont really use any other bt devices. If this breaks after at least a year, I will certainly buy a new one. Ive used this for at least a couple of hours every day since I received it.

Very great speaker!! Last for days!! Very loud and awesome. Recommend for a gift

Me encanta porque no es muy grande , pero se escucha súper fuerte , y no es mucho la diferencia de mi bocina JBL ESSENCIAL
