#JBL SPEAKER FLIP 4 FULL#
Repeating the same test at full volume I got 8 hours by the SoundCore 2 and 3 hours 10 minutes by the Flip 4. In my test, when I played various types of songs on the speakers at 70% volume I measured 12 hours play time by the SoundCore 2 and 6 hours 40 minutes by the Flip 4. With the SoundCore 2, you do not have any possibility to connect more devices together. Since it supports the JBL Connect+ technology, it can be also connected to more than 100 other JBL Connect+ compatible speakers. If you have two Flip 4, you can connect them together for an amplified or a stereo sound.

So the Flip 4 is the winner here, it has an exceptionally long Bluetooth range, however, it is worth to mention that the 90 feet range of the SoundCore 2 is also above the average and likely you will not have any connectivity problem with it.īoth speakers feature an audio jack input port so, besides Bluetooth, they can be also connected via cable. However, it does fall short in terms of audio quality when it comes to bass-heavy music.In my outdoor test, I measured around 90 feet Bluetooth range by the SoundCore 2 and 200 feet Bluetooth range by the Flip 4. At maximum volume, the larger grille on the Flip 3 barely edges past the Flip 4. Needless to say, the Flip 3 is larger and offers a more powerful audio experience. Reasons to Choose the Flip 3 Over the Flip 4 Flip 3 Expect less usage time if you always max out the volume. You can expect up to 12 hours of usage according to JBL if you play music at medium volumes.
#JBL SPEAKER FLIP 4 PORTABLE#
However, it feels great knowing JBL put in effort to protect the portable speaker from spills and drops.įinally, you also get access to more battery life with the Flip 3 thanks to the smaller size. Of course, it does mean that you should dip your speaker in water as other chemicals or corrosives may damage your hardware. It means that you can submerge the speaker under water for 30 minutes without any issues.

The Flip 4 comes with IPX7 certification which the Flip 3 does not.

When it comes to usage, you are better off with the Flip 3 for small gatherings as it is much easier to carry around. There is no special setup required to connect to devices,and everything can be done with a press of a button.

Verdict: JBL Flip 4, but only if you need the added waterproofing.
