JBL flip 6 excellent sound and quality 2 thumbs up

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Don’t be blinded by the size, the sound is large. Great size for fitting in bike bottle holder. Easy Bluetooth connection. Love the new logo. Sits vertical or horizontal without vibration. Was dropped in sink and pulled out minutes later still playing, did not miss a beat. And most importantly battery life , went over 12 hours on first charge. Which helps me on long bike ride days.

More Focused Sounds. Solid improvement

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first, this model didn't seem too different from its predecessors. Cosmetically, there's a new plastic line to allow for it to be laid horizontally and "facing" the direction you choose. In the past, I wasn't quite sure the best way to face it horizontally to get the most directed sound. It's even more durable and sturdy than the previous versions, as well. It also has the same size dimensions but I would maybe like to see it get lighter as it does feel a little heavy at 1.2 lbs. The sound quality is excellent, of course. I noticed it has a bigger distinction between audio segments (mid range, bass, highs, etc) eliminating overpowering background noise in mid range. The bass is great for the size, but as someone who loves bass I think the factory settings leave a little to be desired. That being said, in the JBL Portable app you can absolutely adjust the equalizer to your preference. I realize now they don't have preset "sound modes" in the app like they used to - but that's okay. Overall just another steady improvement on the classic. I also appreciate their eco-friendly packaging (soy ink, recycled materials). It used to be niche in certain products but now JBL seems to be implementing it across the board :)

JBL Flip 6 deep review

9 months ago

The **JBL Flip 6** is a popular portable Bluetooth speaker that builds upon the success of the JBL Flip series, known for durability, water resistance, and high-quality sound. Here's a detailed review covering its key aspects: ### **Design & Build Quality:** The Flip 6 maintains JBL's signature cylindrical shape, with a compact and rugged design. It’s made with durable materials, including a strong fabric cover and rubberized ends, making it both stylish and resilient. The speaker is **IP67-rated**, which means it is dustproof and waterproof—ideal for outdoor use, whether at the beach, by the pool, or on hiking trips. It comes in several vibrant color options, offering some level of personalization. It's also lightweight and easy to carry, with a strap that enhances portability. ### **Sound Quality:** The Flip 6 offers impressive sound for its size. It features a **2-way speaker system** that delivers better clarity and more dynamic sound compared to its predecessor, the Flip 5. There is a **dedicated woofer** for deeper bass and a **separate tweeter** for higher frequencies, giving it more balanced audio. The bass is punchy, and the highs are crisp, but it still delivers clear mids. It’s powerful enough for small gatherings and outdoor use, with decent stereo separation, though it’s still a compact speaker, so you can’t expect massive soundstage or depth. At high volumes, the Flip 6 performs well with minimal distortion, making it ideal for both casual listening and louder environments. ### **Battery Life:** The JBL Flip 6 boasts a **12-hour battery life** on a full charge, which is decent but not groundbreaking in the portable speaker market. Charging takes about 2.5 hours via USB-C, which is faster compared to older models. ### **Connectivity:** The speaker uses **Bluetooth 5.1**, providing a strong and stable connection with minimal dropouts. It also supports JBL’s **PartyBoost** feature, allowing you to connect multiple JBL speakers for a more immersive sound experience. However, it does not support stereo pairing unless you connect it with another JBL PartyBoost-compatible speaker. It lacks a 3.5mm AUX input, so you can only use it via Bluetooth, which might be a downside for some. ### **Additional Features:** - **JBL Portable App:** The Flip 6 is compatible with JBL’s app, which allows for firmware updates and basic sound customization through an equalizer. - **Durability:** With its IP67 rating, the speaker can handle dust and water, making it a great companion for outdoor activities and travel. ### **Pros:** - Rugged, waterproof, and dustproof (IP67) - Improved sound quality with separate woofer and tweeter - Long battery life (12 hours) - Portable and lightweight design - Bluetooth 5.1 with PartyBoost feature ### **Cons:** - No AUX input - No built-in microphone for calls - Limited soundstage due to compact size - Average battery life compared to some competitors ### **Verdict:** The **JBL Flip 6** is a solid upgrade from the Flip 5, delivering enhanced sound quality in a durable, portable design. It's ideal for outdoor enthusiasts and casual listeners looking for a reliable speaker that performs well in various settings. While it may not have all the premium features of larger or more expensive models, it's an excellent choice for its size and price range, especially if ruggedness and portability are priorities.

PERSONALIZED SPEAKER -PAINT CHIPS SO EASY BEWARE!!

1 year ago

not worth the hype and not worth paying more to personalized if the paint chips off easy even if it barely bumps so beware only after a few days and very gentle use. also bought the sleeve to carry around the speaker but it loses its volume compared to the speaker on its own. it was alright I'd still be just as satisfied with my old FLIP4

Great speaker, use a dealer on the ink

6 months ago

Wife bought for me as a gift, customized with my artwork. Great sound and the printing initially looked great. But the ink doesn't hold up. I've taken in out 5 or 6 times and the ink is fading and comes off if anything touches it.

Don't buy the customize option

1 year ago

This review is for the custom work. The sound quality is great. But I ordered an all black speaker with 3 words. The black is peeling so quick and so bad the words are no longer readable. I use to this speaker in my work truck, so if you plan on moving it around and there's a chance for peeling, don't get a cheap custom job. Just buy the all black or whatever colorway you like. Very disappointed with the quality of paint used.

The ultimate shower speaker

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I primarily use this as a shower speaker. The strap is very useful. I have mine hanging from a towel hook. The battery life is pretty good as I have had this for almost a week and have not needed to recharge yet. Amazingly clear sound for such a compact package. Spoken word audio comes through crystal clear and there is minimal bass distortion in hard electronic music.

Not holding up well with minimal use.

1 year ago

I bought this as a gift for Christmas about a month ago. It is not holding up well at all. The paint is chipping and a part of the plastic is already coming apart. We would like to exchange it for another speaker.

JBL Got This One Right

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This little speaker packs a punch! I've got an older Flip 5 sitting on my desk and the Flip 6 blows it out of the water. The bass is noticeably punchier and it's loud! I've got a pretty large garage and it fills the area up with sound like no other. The party boost feature is great when hosting kickbacks and the battery life is very impressive. I've owned Bose, Harmon Kardon, Marshall, and UE brands and I can confidently say that JBL has the best products for your money. I'm a filthy consumerist who likes the latest toys and believe me, JBL got this one right.
