TO THOSE THAT ARE UPSET ABOUT NO MIC. I have 2 flip 4’s, I hate the mic to the point where I disconnect the speaker for a call, and if I want to voice type, it almost never gets it right. That’s the reason they got rid of it. More cost and it sucked. Just upgraded to a Charge 5 and Flip 6 💪🏼

[@midnightbass6596]

Having both a charge 5 and a flip 6 what do you think about them I got a flip 4 and I want to upgrade and get both the flip 6 and charge 5

[@schandy655]

@@midnightbass6596 They are great. I have 2 Flip 6’s and the Charge 5 now. So all 3 to really get it goin, or the two Flips for stereo 💯 just try to catch them on sale for $99.

[@warfieldwithin]

Exactly the same with my old Charge 2+. Always have to disconnect to send a voice message

[@raymondsteptore5062]

I have one just like it. Use it on board my Gator at work all the time playing old school jams. It packs quite a punch! Not bad for some $100. Thank you, JBL.

[@billdepalma161]

I was waiting on this video that flip 5 is hardly dropping in price got my Flip 6 on order from Amazon waiting on it you seemed a bit disappointed I’m hoping the bass is a little deeper. I’m glad it is finally here and your videos are the best indeed. I’ve been playing the charge 4 and flip 4 and 5 they all sound amazing the Flip 6 has to be better. Thanks for another great video.

[@jingledubz3989]

Great video and review as always! Sounds like a sweet speaker. I don’t own either of these, but I do like JBL products. Merry Christmas, Chris! 🤙

[@ChrispyThings]

Merry Christmas!

[@ELaster1]

Great review as always 💪

[@premiumbassbooster4280]

awesome review! I have a jbl charge 5 already and was looking for another speaker to connect it for party mode but this isnt what im looking for because the flip 6 has no bass so im getting a jbl xtreme 3

[@pinkyfloydyfan1]

I have the Extreme 3 which is really great, but for travel, Flip 6 all the way!

[@janespindy]

Thanks for taking time do this review 🎉

[@Raider_Jimmy]

I got the flip 6 I drive a forklift at work and that size is perfect for me to have it on my lift the charge is actually to big for me anyways but love the flip 6 the colors and EQ.

[@navypti]

Great review, but you forgot to mention one of the most practical featues of the Flip 6...the stabilistion bar so it doesn't roll around! I was waiting for you to mention it but alas..... *sigh*

[@domhnall8340]

So because it has no microphone, if I am playing music on my phone through the speaker, and somebody rings my phone, will I know if a call is coming through if I'm not looking at my phone? Thanks!

[@Zyberchief]

Thanks for a great test. I have watched several tests and also your flip 5 test, because I'm thinking about upgrading from Flip4 to Flip6, but moneywise and considering the ressource waste, I'm holding on to my old speaker for now :) Which also have the voice command function :)

[@bassboosted_jbl]

Gray looks awesome on this speaker

[@unfriendme4427]

Bro Can I listen to rap or hip hop without anything happening to the speaker in 100 volume

[@lizanunez3648]

I like both but, I think they sound similar… I just bought the Flip 5 on a Black Friday sale and was debating between the two. I have watched a few reviews and it has been hard to completely make a decision 🤦🏻‍♀️😂.

[@Jorge_V_]

After I tried both! I would totally recommend the Charge5 over these 2, also I recommend the 100 which is beyond amazing and beautiful to look at.

[@franklewis5905]

Beyond amazing ok

[@LatencyProblem]

The Charge 5 is bigger and less portable. If portability is your concern, the Flip is better

[@garyrussell8416]

Both are great speakers but I think they sound about the same. If you own the 5 not worth upgrading.

[@guptahimsocool]

That’s a bug that you have to connect to flip 6 first as they might have left the code for flip 5 as it is and have the code to handle flip 6 as that is new code.

[@lazer2365]

Good review. Sold on the idea of upgrading from the Flip 5 to the Flip 6. Thanks for showing how they can be paired for stereo.

[@yfl409]

is it worth to upgrade from 5 to 6?

[@lazer2365]

@@yfl409 I didn't bother in the end. I listened to 5 and 6 compared, and thought it was just buying more gadgetry for little improvement.

[@andrew007s]

@@lazer2365 I too have the 5. The reviews make it look like the 6 has a lot more bass. Did you hear them at the store?

[@MegaMaxism]

The JBL flip 6 on top volume is harsh loudness your loses the cleaness but the mid volume and lows are outstanding specially the bass I got 2x flip 6 in stereo 3D mode in 3D you sound mimicking the hallway!

[@drakkar_night3346]

Main differences are: Flip 6 is dust-proof/waterproof Flip 5 is waterproof only Flip 6 is Bluetooth 5.1 Flip 5 is Bluetooth 4.2 Flip 6 connects to Charge 5 and newer Flip 5 connects to Charge 4 and older

[@raivons]

forgot the main difference tweeter with extra 10w rms power

[@mehshutup3041]

flip 5 conncets to charge 5 too because it uses partyboost

[@BLACK_KING_TRAP]

What about LFM in flip 5 have but 6 didn’t have !!!!

[@user-nl7xr9no8q]

Flip 5 isn’t water proof lol had some rain take mine out yesterday

[@fk8829]

No MIC is one of my preferred (non) features when it comes to Bluetooth speakers. I hope JBL continues to omit it. As for the need to upgrade, ehh I’m not convinced it’s worth it for me. Especially since the JBL 5 is on sale at Costco. I’ll probably add a 5 to my existing one and gift one for approximately the same cost as the 6. I appreciate the comparison to help me decide. Thanks.

[@preocupied1690]

To me the flip 5 sounds better..

[@jimmemince2475]

The next updated speaker needs to include a mic in one speaker

[@tilozoru1255]

Me likey! just got the cammo version, and love the new features.

[@ChrispyThings]

Awesome! I wanted that cannot version but wasn’t available when I bought mine

[@jimgolembeski8808]

Wow thanks I'm getting the flip 6 mom has flip 5 party boost yes !

[@billdepalma161]

You have to do a video on the Tribit XSOUND MEGA the bass is unbelievable uses the mono oval driver like the JBL SPEAKERS the Flip 6 is great but the bass does not compare to this speaker.

[@doridelicious]

So I’m opening up a small meditation studio/20 people and I asked a couple other electronic/speaker influencers on here and they said to buy 4 JBL Flip 6’s for best surround sound.. 🤔 I would greatly I appreciate your advice and feedback on which speakers would be the best for this! 🙏💕 Thank you!!!

[@ChrispyThings]

Or the Bose Soundlink Flex. I reviewed it a few months back

[@doridelicious]

@@ChrispyThings Thank you!!! I’m going to go with the JBL flip 6 because the Bose is a little pricier.

[@coreyallen2869]

Jbl Flip 6 just sounds richer and more balanced!

[@arkasingha6111]

Plz compare it with klipsch heritage groove..

[@tessmaria6682]

I’m so excited for my Flip 6 to be delivered! Can you still use Siri with the speaker connected? Or no?

[@ChrispyThings]

Yes you can

[@AuggieG]

I bought this as a gift for $90 during Black Friday 2022.

[@giannagorgg1156]

Same!! Arriving Thursday!

[@Elbori7]

What you think it’s better between flip 6 and bose flex?

[@ChrispyThings]

I’ll be doing a sound comparison soon with the Bose Flex, Flip 6 and Sony XB23. But as of right now without hearing then all side by side, I still think the Bose is the one to beat. Sound wise at least.

[@Elbori7]

Thanks Bro. I wait for the review too!

[@robbieasghari8361]

What about the JBL flip 6 compared to the bose soundlink flex? Have you done a video comparison on that?

[@gamerrn8015]

Sir which should I go for JBL Flip 6 vs JBL charge 5 vs bose soundlink flex in terms of punchy bass.

Bose soundlink flex is perfect

There is no charge 6

[@Mort849]

Ay you da boss go man

[@fanikurti2420]

FLIP 6. The minimum volume is still too high and if i go further down it just drops to zero. Feels like it goes from 10% of volume to 0% in just one click. How can i solve this and get more intermediate controls, like 5% or 2 % volume? Thank you

[@elPatoChannel]

No

[@tomislavbosnjak66]

So,Flip 5 is better for techno and dance music?Better bass?

[@urbnctrl]

Not necessarily they have the same solo speaker. Just the flip6 has extra tweeter for the high frequencies to get a cleaner sound.

[@billdepalma161]

On your pros and cons you state the flip 5 is 5.2 but on the screen 4.2 just thought I’d let you know.

[@ChrispyThings]

Yeah. I put it on the screen to correct my mistake. It’s 4.2, not 5.2

[@frankmarsala3103]

Would you buy the 5 or the 6? I don’t have neither at the moment

[@alexvaldez47]

6 because it has a tweeter

[@lglk72b]

​@@alexvaldez47 no have lfm mode the flip 5 is better for deep bass

[@bazsi_hun]

@@lglk72b neither have lfm mode. what you are talking about is a debug mode, which shouldn't be used as it damages the speaker

[@waynedexter]

If you have the 5 then it’s not worth the upgrade But what if you have neither and there’s a $30 difference in price?

[@ChrispyThings]

Similar in sound yes, but the 6 has the updated features such as the latest Bluetooth version, upgraded IP rating and new tweeter. If you don’t care about the upgrades and can find the 5 for 40 bucks cheaper, then I’d go with that just based on the sound.

[@waynedexter]

Ok. Thanks!

[@stevendavies7351]

Wich should I buy, the jbl flip 6 or the bose soundlink revolve plus 2.

[@ChrispyThings]

Sorry but that’s something you have to decide for yourself based on specs and your own personal taste.

​@@ChrispyThings is the bose soundlink revolve plus 2 worth the money they are charging for it.

Hey like the new song selection for this video the Flip 4 saw for 99.00 flip 5 95-129.00 so the Flip 6 is the Best Buy. JBL does not reduce price like Sony does when a new speaker is released. JBL IS JUST AWESOME ANDYOU GIVE THE BEST PRESENTATION A1

Thanks for the info!

[@jokinskinskins]

I love jbl.

Flip 5 sounds better than the 6, & 50% is the sweet spot for both. 👍🏾

[@ChrispyThings]

The 5 is still a great speaker

[@newfnshow031]

I agree with this comment -- the flip 5 sound depends on the variety that you got out of the box. The one I had was super clear and the flip 6 sounded muffled to me personally on the store display. If you have a flip 5 that sounds bad you should RMA it that's what I did. I paid $50 for it from Verizon

[@LatencyProblem]

Not really. The tweeter makes all the difference

[@karlirvinpertez3984]
