About the JBL Flip
The Flip comes with its own durable carrying pouch.
The JBL Flip is only about the size of a tall soda can, but it sounds anything but small. This pint-sized portable Bluetooth system takes the audio streamed from your portable device and kicks it out with surprising power and clarity.
Bluetooth connectivity for music and conversation
The Flip lets you wirelessly stream audio from your Bluetooth-enabled smartphone, tablet, laptop or other device. A built-in microphone turns the Flip into a wireless speakerphone. Just press the “Accept Call” button to start the conversation.
Small package, big sound
Inside the Flip are two 1-5/8" full-range drivers that deliver clean, clear sound, with a built-in bass port that reinforces the low tones. Thanks to JBL's advanced digital signal processing, the Flip can produce room-filling sound despite its compact design.
Convenient portability
The Flip has its own durable neoprene carrying pouch. Slip in the Flip and you're good to go. The system comes with an AC wall adapter, and gives you up to 5 hours of portable operation from its built-in rechargeable batteries. An auxiliary input lets you play non-Bluetooth portable devices through the system, too.
From our JBL Flip portable Bluetooth speaker review:
The quantity of sound was impressive from something so compact...The sound signature skews toward the high end of the frequency spectrum. But it does so with clarity and openness that similarly priced speakers can't always replicate.

Bought this for my son to play his iPod. It has good sound for the price. It also is built well, not made out of cheap materials; an important factor when it's a gift for a boy under ten. The size is excellent; very portable.
