BBQs, kickbacks, workouts, camp trips, and beach hangs just got an upgrade: JBL has released its new and better-than-ever Flip 7 portable speaker.
The latest in their best-in-class speakers, this powerhouse portable marries cutting-edge audio tech with rugged durability, all wrapped up in JBL’s classic sleek, compact design. With an upgraded speaker driver, enhanced sound quality, and game-changing features, the Flip 7 is poised to be the most popular gadget in your outdoor party arsenal.
What makes the new Flip 7 better than its predecessor? Its smooth-as-butter sound is underpinned by JBL’s proprietary AI Sound Boost technology, which intelligently maximizes the performance of the speaker’s woofer.
The result is a richer, more detailed sound that remains crystal clear even at higher volumes — goodbye distortion, hello pure audio bliss.
But it’s not just about sound. The Flip 7 is built for the tough stuff. This speaker is dustproof, waterproof, and drop-proof, so you can take it anywhere. The Flip 7 can handle up to 30 minutes submerged in as much as 1.5 meters of water — or being dropped onto concrete from a meter above. And with up to 16 hours of playtime — thanks to the Playtime Boost EQ for a longer jam session — this speaker is made for those all-day adventures.
Speaking of adventures, the Flip 7 brings new versatility to the party with interchangeable carrying accessories — including a finger loop and carabiner hook — adding even more portability and customization to your setup. Plus, the addition of Auracast™ tech lets you wirelessly pair multiple JBL Auracast™ speakers, turning your intimate space into the feel of a concert venue with ease.
The new JBL Flip 7 is available today for pre-order on JBL.com for $149.95 and will be ready to ship on April 6th. It’s available in a variety of colors, including black, white, red, blue, purple, and even camo.
