Fully waterproof and with a battery life of up to 12 hours, the JBL Flip 4 Bluetooth speaker can also handle phone calls while providing noise and echo-canceling capabilities. JBL Connect+ allows linking up to 100 speakers for an enhanced auditory experience. The ongoing 37% price cut brings the JBL Flip 4 down to US$69.94.

Introduced at CES 2017, JBL Flip 4 has been around for longer than most of its competitors, but still has a few attributes that keep it interesting. This Bluetooth speaker is IPX7 waterproof, so taking it in wet and/or dusty environments is not a problem, since it can even spend up to 30 minutes in up to a meter of water. According to this review, while JBL Connect+ is a great idea, this speaker is not compatible with its non-plus Connect siblings.

In addition to the above, it should also be mentioned that the popularity and rating of this product on Amazon are both impressive: over 1,000 answered questions and 110,760 ratings, with a global rating score of 4.8/5. This excellent score comes as the result of 87% perfect ratings and 8% 4/5 reviews. The breakdown by feature starts with a 4.4 for battery life and 4.5 for bass quality, continues with 4.7 for sound quality, volume control, and Bluetooth connectivity, topping at 4.8 for the quality of materials used.

Like other similar speakers from JBL and other brands, the Flip 4 features two external passive bass radiators. While waterproof, it is also rugged thanks to the durable fabric material and rubber housing that aim to keep the music going even after going through multiple drops and bumps. This Bluetooth speaker can connect up to 2 smartphones or tablets and features noise and echo-canceling for hands-free crystal-clear phone calls. 

The advertised battery life of 12 hours goes down to only 4 hours on maximum volume according to the aforementioned review, so buying two or three and connecting them while using a lower volume value could be a better idea that would achieve about the same result (and a surround sound experience on top of it).

Available in black, blue, gray, or a camouflage paint scheme, the JBL Flip 4 has a list price of US$110.95 on Amazon. Thanks to the ongoing 37% discount, it can currently be acquired for US$69.95.
