JBL Flip 4 Waterproof Portable Bluetooth Speaker
- The battery life is amazing and I believe it does indeed last for the time stated here, if not longer.
- It is robust, has a great sound, and the battery life is pretty good too.
- The battery life is good, I've only once used it from full charge to empty and it almost lasted the 12 hours stated.
- Battery life 12-15 hours. We have it sailing but haven’t had to test its water resistance yet! Sound is excellent and I can walk round the house and down both ends of the garden without losing it
- The battery life is shockingly bad. A full charge lasts about two hours when streaming music from my phone...

What customers say about "Interfaces"
JBL Clip 3 Portable Bluetooth Speaker
- Really good sound quality and volume. Amazing connectors.
- No worries, good sound, good range and good ports.
- The bluetooth connectivity module is intuitive and works perfectly.
- Great charging port. Easy enough to use.
- Noisy auxiliary input when charging; very aggressive dynamic range compression.
JBL Flip 4 Waterproof Portable Bluetooth Speaker
- The charging cycle doesn’t last long and the speaker comes with a nice USB cable for charging.
- A big plus is that it doesn't have the additional weight/headache of batteries as it's usb chargeable!
- Connection via USB works without problems, the battery saves a charge for a long time.
- I wish the charger came with a plug in for a wall and not just the USB cable.
- The micro usb connector is just too weak or doesn't give enough support and ends up breaking on the unit.
