JBL Flip 7 Portable Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker, IP68, AI Sound Boost

The JBL Flip 7 brings high-output audio performance to a durable, handheld form factor designed for all-terrain portability. Engineered to withstand demanding indoor and outdoor conditions, the Flip 7 features an upgraded IP68 waterproof, dustproof, and drop-proof architecture capable of handling freshwater submersion up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes, as well as accidental 1-meter drops onto hard surfaces. The exterior is wrapped in 100% post-consumer recycled fabric with a 77% recycled plastic frame, paired with the versatile PushLock interchangeable accessory system for easy carrying with the included loop and carabiner.

Acoustically re-engineered, the Flip 7 features a powerful two-way driver configuration driven by 35W RMS total system power (25W RMS woofer + 10W RMS redesigned dome tweeter). It integrates JBL’s proprietary AI Sound Boost technology, which analyzes audio signals in real time to optimize acoustic parameters, resulting in deeper low-end response, clearer highs, and clean output even at peak volume levels. The onboard 17.28 Wh lithium-ion battery provides up to 14 hours of playback, reaching up to 16 hours when activating Playtime Boost. Complete with modern Bluetooth 5.4, Auracast™ multi-speaker broadcasting, lossless audio playback via USB-C from laptops or tablets, and soundbar pairing via SurroundPlay, it offers comprehensive audio versatility.
