Great sound custom design is flawed.

Jason E . 15 days ago

Bought this at the beginning of the month. Was very happy with the look and sound of the speaker. Unfortunately after less than a month with little use the design I picked is coming off the speaker. Pieces of the color on the fabric wrap are coming off and it’s only been used a few times sitting on a counter with no rough use. Will not be making a personalized speaker ever again. Now I have a speaker with white specks where there should be color.

Classic JBL sound, on the go!

Mrsaratoga . 18 days ago

Having been a lifelong JBL fan (have a pair of Decade 26 speakers for almost 30 years, JBL headphones, and a JBL Clip), I wanted to get a waterproof, long battery life portable player. Many of my friend have the earlier Flip models, and they sound amazing...had to grab a Flip 7, and WOW! Classic JBL sound, long battery charge, and the iPhone app to customize the sound (even has an equalizer option) is simply amazing. Love it and highly recommend it!

I’m emotionally recovering…

Ptrk . 24 days ago

Great sound, but the colour (blue) in the pictures and the actual colour of the speaker couldn’t be more different… It’s borderline criminal. The blue in the photos looked muted and modern; the real speaker looks like a children’s toy...

Under water for a week

Kenny L . 1 month ago

I got the flip 7 in camo over the summer. I’m 53 and I take this thing everywhere. A few weeks ago I was in the woods moving a tree stand and listening to music. Well, long story short , I fell 18 ft and shattered every bone in my left leg. Music still playing. So after 4 days In the hospital I got home and called my daughter to make sure they picked up all my stuff where I fell. Well they did and everything was in a crate in the back of my side x side under water. One thing still worked after being submerged for 4 or 5 days from rain. The flip 7 . It turned on and worked flawlessly. The dewalt impact was dead, Milwaukee impact was dead Flip7 beat out the two top names in the business. So it’s been a couple weeks now and I’m sitting on my porch , in a full leg brace listening to the flip 7.This thing is indestructible, best money I ever spent. Battle tested and approved in my eyes

45min playtime, not 16hr !!!

Rob03svt06 . 1 month ago

Bought 2 of these last wee. It's built well, and sounds good. But the battery is horrible. Lucky to get 45 minutes of use unless plugged in. Is it possible to replace the battery?

Customer Support - 1 month ago

Thank you for providing your feedback on our JBL Flip 7. Its battery life may vary depending on volume and music content and has up to 14 hours. If you need further assistance, please contact our Customer Support, so we can assist you.

No battery life

Sarbear . 1 month ago

The battery life doesn’t even last for 4 hours. I loved my jbl 5 but it broke so replaced it with the 7 and it was a downgrade for sure.

Customer Support - 1 month ago

Thanks for your feedback on our JBL Flip 7. The published up-to-playtime is the maximum battery time you will get when listening at background levels. As you turn up the volume, the playtime will be reduced, much like a phone battery when you brighten the screen. The same goes for source material. Music with more bass will also reduce playtime. 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. Please try to charge the battery to 100% and then listen to music without any bass boost, 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. Please contact us for further assistance.

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?

Answer from Customer Support11 days

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.

Is the racetrack driver used in JBL FLIP 7 a Long-Excursion driver? Or it's a regular driver?

When using lossless audio, does it reproduce audio and charge simultaneously?

Answer from Customer Support1 month

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.

Does this have a speaker for answers phone calls

Answer from Customer Support1 month

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.

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?

Answer from Customer Support1 month

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.
