Why do you think JBL left out so many features on the new Flip 5?
Can i win the flip 5 ?
Biznis...
money making and because of water proofness. and maybe they know people are not using the AUX option to connect their speaker. so they decided to make it simple and more effective.
also the partyboost connect mode also software improvements and of course moeny making...they know kids out there will buy always the newest jbl line up and tell their friends " hey buy a flip 5 so we can connect together"....they know that this works... lets see if jbl is right again and peopel are so stupid and will invest in the newst jbl speakers always
guys just buy a Earfun uboom or tribit max sound plus or a anker soundcore motion+. all of those 3 are better than this flip shit :D
Maurice Hard disagree but thanks for your input.
Am i the only one who likes the not taking calls part? cause like i don' want my call shouting out loud in the middle of the street
Same here 🤣🤣
Hehe, very good, i also think like you
Yeah it was so annoying! I don’t know who are the people who used that feature but they must be some weirdos. 😆
Exactly! I find it very annoying for my music speaker to be grabbing my phone calls.
@@timchilders3535 bro I bought mine, I love it, I've been using it for 5 months so far so good, battery lasts long, sound is really good, I recommend not taking it to the maximum because it'll have some distortion and will reduce life span but I had it playing music in the middle of the basketball outdoor court, 4 against 4, players talking, ball hitting the ground and the backboard and the music was still audible and enjoyable, really recommend
I was surprised how well the sound came through on my end... Thanks for the review.
Thanks for watching
Thank you! Your sound test helped me decide immensely since your audio setup is fire.
Definitely picking this up though not so happy about all the missing features. Good review, well done!
5:03 sound test
Thank you, this guy rambles on forever
Thanks
Thanks
Hero
thank you
Chrispy, you are the best tech and trinket reviewer on UA-cam. You are my trusted go-to channel when assessing wallets, tech and gadgets. Keep up the good work.
Thank you!
I bought a JBL speaker of this size for the first time and it sounded very good. Better than the same size SONY bought before
haha i loved the water test xD great stuff. thank you
9:15 that water effect was awsome
The bass when you put it face down in the water had me vibin’ 🕺🏼😭😭
🤣
thank you so much! this video helped allot, i didnt know which one to get! :)
This was so helpful! Thank you!
i like the flip line of speakers for the size and sound. i dont always want to pack my big extreme 2 around every day. great review!! loved the water test! lmfao!!
Hi, I have 2 jbl flip 5 speakers that I use in stereo mode. I want to sell them and upgrade to a single portable one with even more bass. Would you recommend it or should I keep them? The thing is IDK if theres something better cause I tried the charge 5 and I honestly think my flip's 5 sound better together than a single one. The xtreme might be good but its price is too expensive and if it sounds the same as my speakers it would be a waste. Does anybody know what should I do? Should I bought a xtreme or keep my speakers?
That water test tho 😹😹😹 did look cool for a minute
I bought mine to workout in the back yard, an to be in the shower. That's it!!! I hate people who uses speakers to talk on the phone. Type C charger closed the deal for me. An it doesn't need a cover to go under water. I bought mine today at Walmart for $89.99
Another awesome JBL video your the JBL MAN keep the great Bluetooth videos coming.
I can’t wait for the Flip 6!
@@ChrispyThings me too they leaked out the Charge 5 for March release with 40 watts and an added tweeter. The flip 6 can’t wait hopefully 30 watts and a tweeter the flip 4 and 5 are excellent speakers have them all up to the charge 4 I have Bose micro Tribit Stormbox micro so many good speakers out there. I stick with the big 3 JBL, BOSE,and SONY!
Chrispy Things I Appreciate This Video😊!
Love my flip 5, sounds awesome
*I just got mine today 62920 and I'm really happy with it😊 I got the ocean Blue I would recommend getting one 😁*
Chrispy.. loved the water test! Jesus! Lol
I was worried for a minute there. Lol
Doesn’t float
Watching your video with JBL flip 5. It seems great
Entertaining and informative, great job
Thanks for watching!
Nice review👍
The water submersion was the best part ... it made me laugh when water went everywhere!! Considering this is going to be going poolside frequently when I get mine, I needed to see the water demonstration. The price of the flip 4 and flip 5 are currently the same, so there was no money savings to consider. I favored the Type-C usb and no flap to worry about water getting in. As far as some of the other features, seeing as how I don't have any other JBL speakers to connect or would ever talk through my bluetooth speaker, I don't see those options as important for my purposes. As long as it sounds amazing at the price point, is waterproof, loud and clear sound, that's all I need. I did buy two speakers so I can connect them since JBL is using the Partyboost connectivity, and just in case they go back to the JBL connect. At least I'll still have these that can be paired. I won't miss a 3.5mm jack either because it would be a rare occasion that I would ever feel the need to connect that way. Let's face it, Bluetooth is the wave of the future and will be for a very long time. People enjoy living in a world wirelessly when possible.
JJ, The Karaoke Rideshare Driver This is a great speaker for you if you don’t need those missing features. Thanks for watching!
@@ChrispyThings Thanks! Can't wait to get them and hear what they sound like in person, although, I'd have to say, your recording microphone picks up excellent audio capture in loud sounds. Kudos!
@@ChrispyThings I got the two Flip 5's and I gotta say, linking them with party boost didn't require putting an app on my phone which is great, and was also very simple. I highly recommend using two of them for more of a stereo feel. They sound great, get very loud, and can really pound for being small speakers. (This coming from an audiophile and DJ/KJ). Plus, their size will fit well in a bicycle water bottle holder, so I can take one on my bike and put the other on my daughter's and play music from my phone so that if she rides near me, we both can enjoy the tunes. I like the weightier construction versus previous Flip units (my husband has just a Flip with no number...) and feel that these should hold up well for a very long time. I have hit that red button and thumbs up engaged in support of your channel. Nice job on this video!
@Erik Cobra Kai never Dies 7 months ago when I wrote my post, they were the same price.
@@JJTheKaraokeRideshareDriver Hey, since you've had the speaker for a while now, could you please tell me if it floats in a pool? Because at some point in the video it seemed to sink...
when you here this on headset is so freakin good
I use my flip 5 daily. Great sound for movies music or talking. Shouldn’t sound as good as it does.. awesome speaker. I got the green camo color.
Thanks for the info.,👍👍👍
I love the choice of music!
It was labeled as a copyright free song.
I received a copyright claim on this video because of it. I’m protesting it.
I really like ur vid. Only thing I can say, is when I ordered the JBL5, was the fact that it did not have a microphone or voice assistant! I want my speakers to be speakers not another cel accessory. Pricey? Yea, then again, if we can afford it why not. Again, good video.
Thank you very much.
Very helpful.
Thanks for your binaural mic...im sold...the sound quality is awsome. Have you reviewed the Harman Kardon Onyx 5 and 6? if so il dive thro asap
No I haven’t.
My latest speaker recluse the Bose Soundlink Flex. I’d definitely check out that speaker if I were you. It’s great
I love this speaker . I just bought it for my kayak.
We bought this speaker today so happy🎊🔥🥰
Me too
chariemae tagsa how do you like it?
Hello, I want to own one, is it still working for you?
For the videos u make u deserve more subscribers so I subscribed
That Jbl Flip 5 Speaker is so fire and definitely want it
Hi, I have 2 jbl flip 5 speakers that I use in stereo mode. I want to sell them and upgrade to a single portable one with even more bass. Would you recommend it or should I keep them? The thing is IDK if theres something better cause I tried the charge 5 and I honestly think my flip's 5 sound better together than a single one.

It sounds OK for a small speaker. I'm assuming no bass boosted stuff was used for the sound test. My only complaint with these portable JBL speakers is that there is no protection for those side radiators so can easily get damaged in a bag or from accidental knocks which makes it less portable. If only JBL could put some grills over them then they would be perfect.
Actually.. Those passive radiators are tougher than a typical radiator you see on other bluetooth speakers that are covered with grill... And actually those rubbers that supports the radiator are thick. I tested them out and they're durable, my Jble flip 5 is 4 years old now yet they are still perfectly fine after a few drops and being packed on my bag
@@fredvoid5976I just bought a brand new jbl flip 5 today for $59.99 at costco. Your testimony sounds like a good buy that should last a good time.
HOLY BASS!
I bought the flip 5 recently. Pretty good sound. Great for camping trips, the beach, hanging out at the pool, patio and etc. and duh!!! not intended for use under water but yes you can use in the water, pool floating around.
I got a jbl go how mutch harder is it
@@quint_l2116 I don't understand your question. Harder???
@@mhaas281 i got a jbl go the small one is it mutch louder in sound
Now I see why it's waterproof, the speaker just ejected all the water when playing music 10:23 :))
That was actualy the bass who is blowing the water out:) , but yes it's waterproof and it's a great test.
I just bought my speaker today and i love it❤
0fficial Cheeto does it give a lot of bass?
@@1500salads yes
Nice Man!😊I love the speaker too❤️
Tommy94 that’s good❤️
is the flip 5 loud enough for parties?
Worth every penny
The cutting out under the water at 9:31 is most likely because you're using a metal bowl which shields connection between the phone. Try it in a plastic or glass bowl, probably works just fine. Thanks for the review, I also love my Flip 5 when on the go.
The music made this video that ! 🥰
I brought the speaker before watching this video. You kind of make the flip 4 sound better. All in all I enjoy it. Great sound . Nice review. BTW what song is that you used during testing ?
Spot Light check the comments. I know I’ve answered that question a few times. Seek and you will find. Thanks for watching!
@@ChrispyThingsjust answer his question dweeb
The sound quality seems great
I can only tell that your mic is terrific!
Thanks!
For indoor and rooms soundtrip this is amazing. Flip to fit indoor .
Listening to this on my Flip 5. It sounds just like my speaker
That beat is nice
I’m watching this while wearing my jbl 600btnc headphones
Cant wait to own one🙏🏻💪🌅
I LOVE MY SECOND HAND ONE I GOT TODAY WORKS MINT LAST LONG AND SOUNDS GOOD AT FULL VOLUME
Excellent review. They dont have a 3.5mm jack?
Water (H2O) is excellent in blocking radiation including RF signals of any type. That's why it's use in nuclear power plants.
its also in a metel bowl
Great review thx!! Btw is there a way to adjust the Bass & Treble? I tried adjusting my phone that I have it connected through and changing the sound from Heavy Bass to Low Bass and tried High Treble and Rock and Jazz which changes the sound on my wireless headphones but it doesn’t change the sound on this speaker?! Kinda frustrating or am I doing something wrong? Thx. New subscriber.
You can’t adjust the level later in the JBL app unfortunately. You can with the new Flip 6 though.
Already order the flip 5. I bought mine to listen to music only. Sound is superior plus all other features I can do without. And besides if i want more speakers ill buy more flip fives better sound.
Exactly! Why are people complaining about no microphone and no 3.5mm jack on a "Bluetooth" speaker. I buy it to listen to music not to make phone calls on my speaker.
is it really loud?
@@cristiannn8049 I think it's really loud when your indoors with just 1 JBL flip 5 speaker but outdoors it's loud enough but some people would probably prefer to have 2 when outside
is the flip 5 loud enough for parties?
@@ben3634 it is, I have one, doesn't dissapoint at all. Indoors you don't even want to listen to it full volume
Greetings all the way from Ghana, West Africa. I love this your reviews here. Good thing you mentioned it's performance in comparison to the Sony xb 32. I have been struggling with which one to buy between them. I'm looking for one with better bass performance. Could you help me here? Flip 5 or Sony xb32? Would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance 🙏
Recommend the jbl flip 5 , i used my girlfriend’s and it blew me away !
Thank you for the review. I bought one and it sounds awesome. Only thing is when I turn it up loud starts moving on the table like you put it straight and starts spinning around slowly is that normal?
Listing to this on JBL flip 5
My dude, do you recommend Flip 5 over Flip 4 sound-wise? I'm seriously considering getting Flip 4 for the convenience of using it as an external speaker for calls. Thanks!
Flip 5 for future proofing your purchase if you plan on buying other JBL speakers. If not, go with the 4 if you need to take calls.
I have this speaker and I love it it has great sound could use more bass but the charge lasts mine 3 dTs before another charge and just takes mine 1 hour to fully charge
Excellent video I have one question I just bought my flip 5 today I only need it when I’m driving my Fed Ex. My question is on mines the speaker sounds like it’s louder towards the left of the device and not even on the right. Is there only one speaker on this device or do yours sound even on both sides
It sounds like it’s coming from 1 side.
is the flip 5 loud enough for parties?
I picked up one in green camo a few weeks ago and got a little nervous when I saw "waterproof" with the exposed charge port. I thought "how's that possible", so I've been reluctant to put it in any water, despite the waterproof feature. Thanks for showing that it won't blow up on me if I put it in water lol. Great review, all around.
Thanks!
Looks cool, I honestly wouldn't want it for it for using IN water, but it's nice to know it's safe from moisture in the shower or if you happen to be outside and it's drizzling.
Right? Wtf is it such a big deal to intentionally dunk and submerge speakers and other electronic devices? Ive always tended to avoid getting my things wet, as much as possible.
well if you take it on a boat or jetski its good to know if it slips out theres no harm
JBL?? Love the bass and clarity!! Sonos?? Really like their new “picture” speaker. Pricey tho!!
Like your cute tan line!!
Thanks!
I’m thinking about getting one
Great bro
Great video...so I picked one up but I won't be under water...
La prova nell acqua e fortissima ciao Chrispy kiss from italy😘
Tonita Truppa bella
Hey, great video. Im thinking about getting one but I've seen people say that it doesn't turn on/charge for them anymore. Does it still work for you? Should I get it despite these problems?
It still works for me. I’ve had no issues at all. I’m guessing the problems you’re hearing about aren’t the norm. I use this speaker all the time.
Just bought my flip5 and I love it way better sound than flip 4 and better than my anker soundcore ! Deff recommend
dude really? Better than sound core motion plus? That is a huge compliment for flip 5!
Hello, I want to own one, is it still working for you?
"Twelve hours of battery time, Less the the JBL 4 had." What???
Sweet tan 😄👍
I gotta get me one of those
It add's a little bit distortion when full volume, whatever I love JBL. ❤💯🎵
Yes but I've never come across any speaker that doesn't fall apart at 100 percent. Not meant for it. 70 80 percent sweet spot.. peace
Is this from listening to one you have, or through this video?
I just want it so when I’m driving my moped I can listen to music
Who the fuck drives a mopet
@@sergiocorral6753 almost every teenager lol
Im buying this because im pretty sure charge 4 will get a partyboost update. So excited for bass heavy sounds if connected with flip 5 🙂🙂 my charge 3 will get lonely though... Tough decision
is there any delay from the audio while you playing youtube?
perfect video and whar to music ?
I’ve just bought the jbl flip 5 of Facebook brand new never been used so can’t wait for tomorrow
Tell me what’s your comments about the speaker bro. Thank you! Planning on buying later.
Buy it is good you will like it I have one
I have a flip3 and thinking of upgrading to a 4 or 5...which would you go with or stay with my 3?
The single driver is positioned to the right from the logo. The sound is as if you're listening to it in a hollow chamber. Flip 4 has natural, absolutely natural sound, which means it gets slightly harsher at full volume. The C type is the only catch in this speaker. You should probably check out Charge instead.
JBL Flip 5 vs Anker Soundcore Flare+ Which one should I get for better sound and bass?
This Flip 5 stopped Bluetooth pairing after 4 months. If you have any recommendations, I will be open. Otherwise without cable connection this is just a paper weight
The testing video is beautifully done, what is the music used for testing? Put the link. Iam Sri Lanka🇱🇰, Thank you
What song was that, that you tested with ?
perfect speaker t have like this i always bring this out side sound trip when they hear the sound music they're surprise and wondering they cant believe the sounds good is from small speaker jbl flip 5 they thought from big speakers,😄😄
Got the 5 sounds good But left out so many good features that the 4 had and do not like no cover over the charger outlet stick with the 4 if u can find it .
I would like to know the song you were using for the Bluetooth . I love that beat so much 😭??
Is the Flip 5 good to use when watching UA-cam videos on an iPad? Or is there a good bit of lag?
Thanks, and GREAT video!
Very little lag watching a video right next to the speaker.
Just buy airpods pro
4:50 He says USB instead of Bluetooth.
Volf Oops. Forgive me?
Gordon Ramsey F ya then
@@ChrispyThings What a twat u are, lol.
Gordon Ramsey Lol. So sensitive. Hey what’s your address. I’ll send you my last box of tissues. Jeez
I got one today. It’s ok sounds pretty good I think the highs are just a tad tinny. The speakers sound crappy at 100% volume but one push down on volume I’m thinking 95%ish it’s sounds better. Not as loud as I thought it would be
Is it possible to connect this with mac pro, without is auto disconnecting or stuttering?
0:15 that song reminds me of filthy frank.
He joji now, PROUD of hIm
How is not having 3.5mm jack going backwards? It’s a travel and outdoor speaker, who actually uses 3.5mm jack these days if you don’t have some top notch hifi system? It was annoying to have that flap so im glad they simplified this. Partyboost however sucks and i wish it was compatible with my flip 4, that i ended up selling for that reason. I don’t think JBL realizes it’s not gonna make people buy two speakers, and it’s also not allow them to built a connected collection that would basically surround your room with sound, which would be awesome. Because they don’t have it, i just sell the previous version everytime. Which means that someone will buy something they already sold and jbl will not have profit from it, but if they let them connect, less people would be selling their older speakers and thus more people would have to actually buy the new one. Basic logic, idk who is doing the marketing strategy at JByl but they should be fired.
When connecting more than one flip 5 together, after about 30 min it automatically disconnects if I do not have both simultaneously connected to my phone via bluetooth (since this causes disruptions in the sound if further apart). I have heard several have this problem. Do you have an fix for that issue? It's not the particular speaker itself either as I have experimented with 4 different brand new flip 5s.
It happened with my cellphone. I bought a samsung tab and it has not interrumptions while playing on stereo mode. Maybe the mobiles are old and it doesn't work well. Otherwise, I don't know, but I can say its not a problem of the speakers at all cause when I connected them on my tab I had no problems. It might be the bluetooth version or idk 😢
🌟✨🌟 Great vid. Can you still link up 100 of these together like the Flip 4. was able to do.??
The metal bowl was what was disconnecting the bt signal
Pretty sure the cut out was caused my the aluminum bowl haha but that's sick
yeah
