Thanks for your feedback. The published battery life is up to 12 hours, but actual playtime depends on volume and source content. At background listening levels, you’ll get the maximum battery time, but as you increase volume or boost bass, playtime decreases—just like a phone battery drains faster with a brighter screen. Music with more bass also shortens battery life. It is possible that the battery is working correctly but depletes more quickly when the volume is very loud and/or the bass has been boosted. Try to charge the battery to 100% and then listen to music without any bass boosted, and at a very low volume. If the battery lasts close to the published up-to playtime, the battery is working fine. However, if you get less than 90% of the published spec, this likely means that the battery is losing its capacity. For further assistance, please contact us.jbl.com Originally posted on jbl.com

JBL Flip 7 Portable Waterproof and Drop-Proof Speaker FAQs
Buzzy . Nov 19, 2025
Can I buy the finger loop attachment?
Thanks for your question. This part can be purchased directly from us. You may contact us so we can check if we have the color available for your JBL Flip 7, and also be directed on how to place the order.

Does the Flip 7 comes with a charger?
Thanks for your question. Our JBL Flip 7 does not include a USB-C charging cable.
Jay7823 . Nov 1, 2025
Can the Flip7 connect to older audio devices (that do not have Bluetooth, such as cd and mp3 players) using a USB-C to 3.5 mm Aux cable?
Thanks for your question. Our JBL Flip 7 supports lossless audio playback through its USB-C port when connected to a compatible device (such as a laptop or another audio source that supports digital audio output). This allows the speaker to play lossless audio when using a direct USB-C digital connection. However, our Flip 7 does not support analog audio input. This means a USB-C to 3.5mm AUX cable will not work, and it will receive audio from older devices like MP3 players.
Jim Z . Oct 23, 2025
Is the racetrack driver used in JBL FLIP 7 a Long-Excursion driver? Or it's a regular driver?
Thanks for your question. Our JBL Flip 7 features a standard excursion speaker for balanced audio performance.
Magoratogha . Oct 13, 2025
When using lossless audio, does it reproduce audio and charge simultaneously?
Thanks for your question. When using lossless audio on our JBL Flip 7, it will not charge simultaneously. This is because the USB-C port is being used for audio playback from the source device, so charging isn’t possible at the same time.
Zwiss . Oct 12, 2025
Does this have a speaker for answers phone calls
Thanks for your question. Our JBL Flip 7 does not have a built-in microphone, so it can’t be used for voice calls or as a speakerphone. It's designed primarily for music playback.
cbtully . Oct 6, 2025
can you pair this one with a jbl flip 5?
Thank you for your inquiry. Our JBL Flip 7 uses the Auracast pairing feature and cannot be connected to the JBL Flip 5, which supports the PartyBoost feature.
CmCa . Oct 2, 2025
Can my JBL7 automatically disconnect from mac air?
Thank you for your inquiry! The JBL Flip 7 is designed to automatically disconnect and go to standby mode after 5-10 minutes of inactivity. This feature helps conserve battery life, ensuring you get the most out of your portable speaker.
D7800 . Sep 22, 2025
Can this also be used as a PA? How many of these can be linked together?
Thanks for your question. Our JBL Flip 7 isn’t designed as a PA system, but it does support Auracast, and there isn’t a fixed limit published for the number of speakers you can connect.

Will this connect to my Extreme 3 with PartyBoost? The features list on this page says "JBL PartyBoost - Yes" but I've read online that Auracast speakers are (annoyingly) not backwards compatible. Which is it?
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We attempted to connect a JBL Flip 7 to another JBL speaker using PartyBoost, and it appears that they are not backward compatible. We will update the feature information to avoid any confusion.
