Lacks premium sound
Great sounding little speaker about the size of a tall beer; highly portable. Bass response shockingly good for this small a speaker. A little concerned about longevity since the top and bottom ports are unprotected like in my Flip 1 that it replaced

Sound overall especially bass response

Careful with both top and bottom
I purchased the JBL Flip 5 a few weeks ago at my local REI and, I must say, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the speaker. It is driven by one racetrack-style full-range driver and a passive radiator on either side and overall it has a pretty decent dynamic range and a surprising bass...
This speaker is easy to use, handsome, and the sound is so sharp and clear! I can hear my music all over the apartment like sound surround in every room. I am very pleased with this purchase!

We use it for our outdoor theater, it's very loud and the battery life is good! We've only had it for over 2 weeks so let's see how long it lasts, however for the price, sound and the ability to take it anymore, recommend buying without breaking the bank. Can't wait to use it at the beach this year!
This thing packs a punch for its size. I was impressed with the bass and how well it fills a room with big speaker sound. Perfect sound quality and volume for a party or patio get-together. Pair it with a 2nd Flip and you’re set for a large party.
the sound of this speaker is amazing but over the 5 has stripped away features that the 4 has. you can no longer use it to talk on the phone since there is no microphone in it. you also can only connect JBL flip 5 speakers to JBL flip 5 speakers. it will not allow you to connect to previous one.
This is the first time I’ve purchased a JBL Bluetooth speaker. I read the reviews online and they were positive so I took a chance and couldn’t be happier with my decision. The sound is amazing. I love bass in my music and that’s exactly what I get with Flip 5.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owed now for only a week, but I was blown away by the amount of sound this speaker was able to create. It's huge! Quality of sound was true JBL. An excellent that I'm very happy I made
