According to our Bluetooth speaker expert
You can take the JBL Flip Essential anywhere. Thanks to the compact size and the light weight, it'll easily fit in your bag so you can transport the speaker. Taking the speakers to the beach or a boat? You'll have nothing to worry about thanks to the waterproof design. You can easily take the speaker on a day trip, since the battery lasts up to 10 hours. You'll enjoy a powerful bass thanks to the JBL Bass Radiator, which allows the compact speaker to produce a deep bass.

Well, see the pluses, it does what I expected, mainly use it in the bathroom for a nice shower with some music. Does this also good sound is of good to very good quality the battery life is also more than sufficient for my use. Is small in size I think, fits in a spacious inner pocket of a jacket and otherwise it also has a lanyard.

I had been looking for a comfy sized JBL speaker for a while, but they often seemed a bit on the expensive side or they were cheap with bad quality. Still, I had taken the gamble with this JBL Flip Essential. no reviews, not here, not elsewhere on the internet, so I was curious. The price was very manageable and the size seemed good for in the car / to take with you. Ordered and it arrived the next day. Immediately tested and man was I happy with it. Good bass, easy buttons and connection, and hold up: waterproof?! Hello showering and spotify! To my happy surprise, there was also an option for an AUX connection with cable and the speaker was charged in no time. The battery lasts at least 10 hours before it is really empty and to my surprise the speaker turned out to be a lot nicer in real life than is shown here on the website. Since this is my first JBL speaker that I own, I didn't have to have party connections to other JBL speakers and I think this is really a great one to start with. tl;dr: are you looking for a good (first) speaker for an affordable amount that you can take with you everywhere? then the JBL Flip Essential is a top choice for you!

My son uses the speaker with his tablet. Is very happy with it. For the rest of the family it may be a little less hard.
