[@AM-dj1wr]

Just bought a preowned JBL Flip 4 (So now I have 2 for party boost, and it sounds dope)... Must say, the fact that the 4's mids and highs are better than the 5's, still makes me want to stay with the 4... Also the 4's built in mic is awesome for voice calls. Actually it' so useful, and a proper game changer for my needs. The 6 seams really cool, but i'd need to by 2 for full effect. The party boost feature really gives a fat surround sound when connected to all other devices (Sport on TV).. Reckon I might only make the move around JBL 8 or 9. Sure it will be a pricey event and well worth it when the day comes, but the step up form 4 to 6 is still to not big enough to justify spend for 2 units. Can't go wrong with JBL period! Great review Flossy! Thanks!

[@erikedward283]

That's what I'm saying I was thinking about getting this but then I was like I might as well just get two flip 4's and call it a day

[@georgedavall9449]

Wrong

[@LatencyProblem]

the sound quality between the 4 and 6 is sooo different

[@Its_just_torrey]

I got my headphones on and I can honestly say the flip 6 sounds a lot better as far as sound quality highs and the mids are more pronounced and the bass is a lot richer on the flip 5 every time the bass hits it sounds like it's pulling power away from the highs and mids I can only imagine what it sounds like in the room but both speakers do sound amazing crazy floss keep up the good work man

[@jesusdudebamadude5559]

@Kizaru TZ what's the eq?

[@antoinehardman9227]

JBL always made good quality equipment I got the JBL FLIP6 it's the best sound I ever heard today it's very heavy in sound right on JBL 😊!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Sk-tp5xp]

Been using the flip 5 for a few of years now and it's just amazing, the quality on JBL speakers are top notch, they're built to last, for my next speaker I'll upgrade to the xtreme line which should be perfect for my needs. Forgot to say that I bought it after watching your reviews, thank you so much, your videos are top quality.

[@abe9811]

Took a break on tech review for 6 months, lol crazy how good ur videos still are 👌

[@gtbigdog3507]

Probably saved some dough

[@syundown6005]

Was kinda tempted on getting the 6, but I just love the fact that the 5 can be personalized with a custom image. It really helps me out too cause my friends and I all love syncing our speakers together and if mine has a design I made myself on it, it makes it harder for us to mix up whose is whose. And it stands out cause you know it's original vs. just a few color choices.

[@YoungAmzn]

wdym custom image?

[@pickledotaku]

@@YoungAmzn On the JBL website you're able to customize some JBL products. For the Flip 5 for example, you're able to put any image and text on it. I personally wish the Flip 6 had this option because it's actually pretty cool to have.

[@anthonyschutz7201]

I've been waiting for this speaker to be reviewed by people I've actually heard of. I already made my decision that I'm going to get it I just like watching reviews to see if there's anything I missed.

[@rainbowafrobro8413]

The flip 5 is like 50 dollars cheaper now so it's pretty affordable under a 100 dollars

[@Post_Maquel]

Sadly this one is not out on the Philippines yet. I think its better than the Flip 5 aesthetically speaking. If JBL just put mic on these? Hands down best wireless speaker. Awesome review as always 👌🏼

[@coolsquad7428]

The difference from the flip 6 vs the flip 5 is a little bit more deeper bass and more clarity

For me, the JBL 5 sounds better even without the choice in EQ. The tech upgrades on the 6 are great, so go for it sounds better to you.

It's a pity that the Flip 5 and Flip 6 can't be paired for stereo. That would be a real advantage for Flip 5 owners who want to upgrade to the Flip 6.

I last month i bought my first Flip 6 and then just two days ago i bought my second one because i really loved my first one and wanted to use the party boost mode and stereo group and after connecting them together they sound INCREDIBLE although i wish that the EQ could be changed while they're connected. Oh and the one i bought the other day i got for only $100 because it's on sale right now and which surprised me a lot because i paid $130 for the first one last month so i got 30 bucks off 😃

Best tech review guy on KZbin! I think I found your channel bc of a phone case review of all things but glad I did I’ve been thinking about getting one of these speakers I currently have a tiny little JBL go 2 but want an upgrade.

[@ramondelgado6778]

The Flip 6 is a whole other world of speaker. It sounds like a half way decent small bookshelf. If you can get a Flip 5 for less, they difference is minimal as the jump from the 4 to the 5 is significant. The Flip 6 is way less now. Also, if these are too expensive, an EXCELLENT option is the UE Wonderboom 2 or 3. Good luck!

Charge series is really the bad apple from JBL. The Flip is very portable and sounds great for its size and the Xtreme is louder, bigger and still portable because of the awesome carrying strap, great for outdoor parties. I really don't know who the Charge is intended for?

My Flip 3 and Flip 4 both failed at the charging port, which made me pass on the Flip 5. The Flip 6 looks tempting though!

I know this was done a year ago but my Bose went out after 10 years of use and it's time for something new, I'm not trying to spend $200 that I spent 10yrs ago on the Bose. So I've been thinking of JBL Flip portables, I hope your review on the 6 still stands because I'm going with that one based on your review, you are rarely off so I trust the Floss stamp of approval.

[@bogdanrusu2777]

You have a review for everything, i love u man !! Thanks for info, i know what i will get. You are the best Floss. Keep it up

[@mofosoto]

Just one request, when you are testing 2 different songs, it would be great to have one song be synthetic/virtual instruments and another one that was recorded with real instruments instead of both songs being synthetic. I don't know if that's the correct terminology but you know what I'm sayin. Maybe there's really no difference but it was just something I was curious about. Great video as always. Kinda surprised you didn't give a little jab at JBL for purposely leaving out software features like the EQ settings for the Flip 5. We all know they could just as easily add that shit to older models and that's some bs. And how can they not figure out how to have connectivity from the older models to the new ones when they both have connection capabilities? Maybe they can't do it as the same party boost, 100 devices crap but should be able to at least connect somehow. I think we would love to see a video of you connecting all your JBL speakers at once, new and old, whatever ones can connect and every one of them. Get it poppin!!! Great video as always!

[@joshuahendrickson4854]

Thanks man for another great review. I could tell with headphones the flip six definitely beats the flip 5. I like that there is an app with E-Q settings. From your brief description of the app, it sounds like it will be accessible with voice over. I use that on my iPhone 8 as I'm totally blind. I'm looking forward to checking out the connectivity of bluetooth 5.1. I need a good bluetooth connection to work with my bard mobile app. This app is for the blind and allows me to get audio books for free. Sometimes speakers with lower bluetooth don't work well with the app and also there could also be problems with voice over. Thanks again for another great review.

[@joshuahendrickson4854]

@@Mushbee I am totally blind, so how something looks isn't of major importance to me. I agree, that I do wish the speaker had a rubber cap covering the charging port. I don't intend to take the speaker outside with me, so I think I will be okay. When I do get the speaker, I'll have to let you all know what I think of it. I have never owned a JBL speaker of any kind. It will be neat to try a new brand of speaker.

Flip 6 over the five in the second test if u would have raised the eq it would have stomped the flip 5. So flip 6 is my choice. I own a flip 5 flip 6 and charge 5. Flip 6 is the winner over flip 5. The grand master is the charge 5 over the flip 6. bigger battery more bass more watts. Over all i like the flip 6 for potability and charge 5 for near the pool. Chrage 5 seems to carry sound further than the 6. What great content u put out i really appreciate it. Great video. 👍
