From setting a mood as crank your favorite tunes to livening up your backyard or patio, these handy little devices can be a game-changer. And it just so happens that the best one we’ve ever tested—the JBL Flip 5 portable waterproof Bluetooth speaker—is on sale for an insanely low price.As one of Amazon’s early Prime Day deals, this top-notch speaker has fallen by 25%, dropping from $119.99 to $89.95. Beyond the incredible savings you’ll get if you grab this unit while the sale price lasts, there are tons of other reasons to want one of your own. For starters? It’s our favorite portable Bluetooth speaker on the market. Akin to other models in JBL’s Flip line, this product features IPX7 water-resistance, which is just a fancy way of saying you could accidentally drop it in the pool and it would still live to blast another Megan Thee Stallion banger (or three). Not only can the Flip 5 survive quick dunks in the water, it boasts robust, crisp sound sound quality, distinctive, round speaker grills and a powerful battery—you can run it for 12 hours off of a single charge. It also has strong Bluetooth (a 4.2 standard, for all you tech nerds) and comes with a built-in sleep timer. In fact, we think it’s even better than its predecessor, the JBL Flip 4 ($79.90). Its superior, sleek design, higher volume levels and SB-C charging capability, which is a change from the Flip 4’s micro-USB, make this new-and-improved model the one to grab. And at this sale price, it’s even more tempting.Subscribe to Reviewed’s Resources newsletter for tips, tricks and hacks to get through this together.The product experts at Reviewed have all your shopping needs covered.
