JBL Flip Essential 2, Portable Waterproof Speaker

Am a noob in BT speakers, I always prefer hearing pleasant melodious voice (vocals), don't like the heavy beats. If you love listening to good pure vocals, this is worth it, was going for the JBL Flip 7 but this low priced JBL Flip Essential 2 stole my heart. This is a beautiful product for Vocal music listeners with alright beats. This is some magic for ears, 10/10 for sweet vocals.

I couldn't pass up this doorbuster special to get this high quality, great sounding speaker for 50% off. One of the best deals ever especially since my old bluetooth speaker could no longer hold a charge. Great timing.

The JBL Flip Essential 2 is a really good Bluetooth speaker. I like that it's not that big and still has a great rich sound. The sound is clear and pleasant to listen to. Operation is easy and self-explanatory, simple. I like the size. It fits in a normal handbag or in the drinks pocket on the side of a backpack. It doesn't bother me that the speaker can't be used as a power battery. The usage time is sufficient for my day in the office and then cooking at home. I do not need more. I can really recommend the JBL Flip Essential 2.

This is the best portable speaker I've used the build quality is very rigid and tough and Im so impressed with the sound quality from such a small speaker. What's more its portable and easy to connect your devices.

I expected more volume and charge doesn't last as long as advertised. But it puts out enough if it's a group sitting under an umbrella on the beach just don't expect to hear it at a pickleball game

The speaker felt like it was made very well, and for the brief time I was able to use it, the sound quality was good. I quickly realized the buttons were not working so I was unable to control the volume from the speaker. Also, I was unable to put the speaker into pair mode to connect to another device. I ended up returning this product for a refund. Had the buttons on the speaker functioned properly, I would have given it 5 stars for its size, solid feel and sound quality. For what it's worth, this was my first return of a Sam's Club purchase, and I had zero problems getting a refund.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The flip essential 2 is not essential. I was hoping to see some type of improvement on this item, being it looked like a newer different model of the Flip 5. It was not. Mostly, all the functionality and performance were the same. The one thing that was worse is the battery life. On the box, it states 10 hours of performance but at what performance level. I had the essential 2 connected via Bluetooth and at 75% volume for around 3 hours, and it died. Talk about a party foul. Fortunately, I had a power outlet close by. Not an experience I would want again nor product I would take with me to an long event. After all that, I will say that the performance of this speaker is awesome. Great sound and Bluetooth range for a minimumal amount of time.

I was really looking forward to the sound box. Unfortunately, I am very disappointed. The tube looks very high-quality, which is also noticeable in the weight. The bass membranes that can be felt on the left and right indicate rich bass and the length and weight also suggest top sound. Unfortunately, this is not the case, the sound is very pale and the bass is almost non-existent. I don't know why the bass is so flat and clacking, but there is a clear reason for the sound itself, because only one small speaker is installed. It has to be said that the sound is better than that of a mobile phone and the tube is indestructible, neither water nor dust can harm us. The tube also absorbs shocks very well

I have bought this last month . As it's written 10hrs playback time . But when I have used it battery working only 2-3 hrs.

I thought i was going to be able to pair it along with my flip 5😒😒so I could listen to nothing at the same time in my backyard
