Verdict

Although the Flip Essential 2 battery life remains weak (only 4-5 hours of playtime). Moreover, its price has increased slightly since it was launched. Nevertheless, the Flip 2 speaker is an improvement over the original Flip and one of the best mini portable Bluetooth speakers available. Key outstanding features include its cylindrical shape, measuring 6.9 x 2.6 x 2.7 inches, weighing 0.52kg, and usable in vertical or horizontal positioning. It is splashproof, with wireless connectivity—a rechargeable battery with 10 hours of typical usage. Easy setup with a 20W output, besides the JBL signature sound, makes Flip Essential 2 a great portable speaker for entertainment.
