- Is the JBL Flip 5 fully waterproof?
- Yes. It carries an IPX7 rating, which means it can be submerged in about a meter of water for up to 30 minutes. It also floats, so it is safe by the pool or in the shower.
- Can I take calls on the JBL Flip 5?
- No. It has no microphone, so it cannot be used as a speakerphone. You can only play audio through it.
- Does the Flip 5 have an aux input?
- No. It connects over Bluetooth only, with no 3.5 mm jack and no USB audio input.
- How is the Flip 5 different from the Flip 6?
- The Flip 6 adds a separate tweeter for clearer highs, a microphone for calls, an app with EQ, and stereo pairing between two speakers. The Flip 5 is simpler and more bass-focused.
- Can I pair two Flip 5 speakers together?
- You can link multiple PartyBoost-compatible JBL speakers to play the same audio, but the Flip 5 does not support stereo pairing between two units.
- How long does the battery last?
- JBL rates it at up to 12 hours of playtime. Real-world use at high volume is shorter, and charging is over USB-C.
