    This speaker is SO good! This brand has always been one of the best speaker brands I know, so when I saw this product at Best Buy I knew I immediately had to buy it. This is a purchase you will not regret, not only the monetary value but also the fact that it’s such a comfortable speaker to go around with, the battery life is excellent, the volume has such a wide range. I use it to play calming music when I’m studying, so for college students it really is helpful, if you live with a roommate that is noisy this is AMAZING hahahaha! * Best Buy College Crew members receive products to write honest, unbiased reviews.

    One of the best purchases I’ve ever made. The sound is amazing, very loud and clear. I had the mini speaker, and decided to buy a bigger one, and I love it.

    I love this speaker! I bought it for the living room of my new apartment and it’s perfect. It’s not too big so it’s easy to grab when on the go and it goes up to the perfect volume. Definitely would recommend to friends and family this holiday season! Best Buy College Crew members receive products to write honest, unbiased reviews.

    Best Christmas Gift Ever!

    This is hands down one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. I bought this for my brother as a Christmas gift last year and he uses it all the time! It holds its charge for quite a while, is definitely waterproof since he’s brought it in the shower, and the quality of the sound is just incredible. It gets very loud on the highest volume, so that’s a huge plus if you enjoy blasting your music. Not to mention it’s such awesome quality for the price. Highly recommend!

    This thing is great. I primarily use it for outside time and it delivers. It's small enough to fit in the bottle holder on my bike. It's loud enough to fill up our outdoor space of about a third an acre. The best thing so far though is that it's surprisingly tough. My 2 yr old decided to take this thing of a field trip around the block (supervised) and put it through a bit of a beating. Cosmetically it took some damage from being thrown on concrete, but it still works perfectly well. Would have been nice to have one of these back in College. Overall, this is a product that delivers at a reasonable price. Good job JBL

    I needed a new speaker to replace another portable that was no longer functioning. I had read reviews of the JBL Flip5 and decided to give it a try! It has exceeded my expectations in everyway! The sound is crisp and clear....as with other reviewers, I'm somewhat at awe with the volume and sound quality this small speaker puts out. Battery life is very good. It last the roughly 10 hours advertised depending on the volume you listen at. Intuitive controls and pairs up easily via Bluetooth. All in all, this is a great speaker and well worth the price.

    Gifted this as a dorm present and it’s definitely loud enough to get you in trouble. Sound quality is good and the bass can shake the desks a little. Would recommend for simple audio needs

    Love this thing! It's compact, yet ultra powerful. Very impressed with the bass and max volume. I had it outside and could hear it clearly across the yard. It feels pretty solid too so I think its going to last a long time. Well worth the money.

    I love this little speaker. Don't let its size fool you, it packs a punch! Just like everything else JBL makes, this speaker is top quality. Mine lives it's life in my garage and is exposed to oil, coolant, water, and frigid temps and still it kicks. I've even brought it to the beach and at half volume it's enough for people 50 feet away to hear. Would buy again and recommend 100%. Oh, and the battery life is not too shabby, either!
