JBL Clip 4 – review of a small portable speaker with a carabiner

JBL's latest portable Bluetooth speakers are rarely anything new, but they still deliver high-quality sound. The JBL Flip 6 is similar to its predecessor, the Flip 5, and produces the same great sound - few models in this segment boast such powerful bass.

The speaker is protected from water and is suitable for use in any conditions, and an equalizer has been added to the app. Flip 6 is inexpensive and can be a great option for parties.

How long does it last?

The manufacturer reports 12 hours of continuous playback. True, there is no information about the set volume and the content being played, and this is important. I can say that 12 hours of autonomy can be achieved only at about 1/3 volume. This will be enough for music in the background and a calm, casual conversation.

The speaker can keep the party going at full capacity for no more than 4-5 hours at a time. In average mode this is 8-10 hours maximum. Overall, not a bad indicator.
