I don't really know what to do since the flip 4 is 139€ in my country. Flip 3 would be 85€. Would be willing to pay 100€ but not 140€ and no idea when the price will drop.
Flip 3 has low bass. Flip 4 is way better !! Trust me ! I tested those 2 with a bass test and the flip 3 barely makes bass while the flip 4 is putting real BASS.
One other smallish change is that Flip 4 has been designed to be stable when sitting on its side. Subtle, but good I think. My Flip 4 is being delivered today!
Did you also experience the 1st dot of the battery lasts long then after that the remaining 4 drains faster?. Also, when I charge my flip 4 the first 4 dots charges faster like it will only take less than an hour or an hour let say. Then the last 5th dot charges like over an hour. Is this normal? I just bought this yesterday.
The extra battery life is due to BT 4.2 (upgraded from BT 4.1). The incremental numbering difference makes the upgrade seem insignificant, but BT 4.2 is far better in many significant ways than BT 4.1.
What a clear and concise comparison between the two. I would definitely recommend others to your site. The manner in which you conducted the side by side comparison was quite professional and extremely helpful. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Jbl have been making car stereos and headphones for years though and those used to be the urban hipter thing but nowdays its as common as smartphones and lost that preconception.. Just like bluetooth speakers
24ecko why when a brand starts to get widely recognized and praised for their quality products that are becoming used by more and more people by the day, is now considered a “hipster brand” people always finding ways to hate on s company’s success.
For me,it is ugly.I would prefer the ceramic radiator.in fact my charge 3 looks fantastic with the ceramic radiator,but I hope that it will not be transfered to the other JBL speakers.but still,I appreciate what JBL had done.#HEARTHETRUTH
If you are a is not so into the sound, ..u are just listening to music. U can get a flip 3. But if you have a more developed ear for sound, and can notice if an mp3 is 128 or 193 or higer,...go for flip 4 .. flip 4has a better base. It's a perfect speaker for me. I live in a flat and its perfectfor these situations
Nice comparison! The differences are minimum but I personally think both speakers are good budget-friendly options! Keep up the good work and the detailed information on the video! PV!
good night I was wondering if you can test out the zbinno smart media centre speaker I would appreciate your opinion on it, and I would like to know if it's better than the jbl charge 3.
What is the range of the flip 4!!!!??? There are so many of these videos showcasing and reviewing the speakers but there is no information of how far away you can be from the speaker before losing connection and if you can be in another room and still have the music playing!!!! I have an issue with mine that 8-10 ft away it starts cutting out and if I put a wall between my speaker and the device it completely cuts out!!!!! My Extreme model 1 doesn’t do this and I can be quite far from it and rooms between it and it won’t cut out!!! At first I thought it was because I have an iPhone 6 Plus and it’s old but I tested it with my brother’s iPhone XR and it does the same!!!!! I NEED HELP AND ANSWERS!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😰
Flip 4 is running Bluetooth 4.2 which is rated for no less than 33ft. I think your speaker is having some kind of issue if it's that bad, but I have no idea what the issue is.
DLX Willington 😭😭😭😭 well that’s what I get for purchasing used but for what I use it for is just to enhance my laptop audio and I always use a 3.5 mm cable but I do like to use the BT at times. Thank very much for the answer my friend!!!! 😁
huh i didn't know the bass was that much better. i thought it was mostly for the battery life and water resistance. nice. i have one to my father back in july as a birthday gift and he freaking loves it. now i'm getting one for myself.
So my friends got me into JBL speakers especially the flip series. As a 16 year old student on a budget, which would be more worth it. I have enough for the flip 3 but would saving up for the 4 be better?
I'm a little confused and granted I'm not listening to this video with headphones but when you played the test tones I could hear the 70hz tone from the flip 3 and not the flip 4. Wouldn't it be the opposite if the flip 4 has lower frequency response?
Can somebody PLEASE plug in an ELECTRIC GUITAR into the AUX of this speaker...and tell me if there's any LAG (due to a-d conversion) at all. in my experience the mi speaker lagged badly..while the jbl micro wireless and the oontz angle/plus never did. I want to get a more "serious" speaker for listening and as an addition to my PORTABLE RIG...thanks a
Hey, nice comparison ! I have a question about Flip 4 maybe you can help, do this speaker has a mic ? I want to use it connected to my Echo Dot but I need to be able to also pickup calls, etc with the Flip, will that work ? I'm gonna be far away from my Echo, cannot shout the commands so I want the speaker to have a MIC. Tx !
I thought that my Flip 3 was Flip 4. So I bought a Flip 4 in hopes of connecting the speakers but I can't seem to do it. Is there a way you can connect them or use them both at the same time??
Cool! Thanks for the review. Although listening through a review on the computer is sketchy, I changed my mind and ordered the 4. I like the extended bass! Thanks for your review!
No. Thank You for giving me the information I needed! I don't buy anything until I find an accurate review. I trust you for being so thorough. Liked and Subscribed. Got my Flip 4 yesterday and rocked a few rooms with music I know and trust. Could use a bit more bass but I am very pleased. Equalizers are available. I listened to waves crashing onto beaches last night to fall to sleep. Best sleep ever. Thanks again for the review. Love and love!
@@legendaryblood1937 still like that I can hear the 70hz in this video with my flip Essential (and the clear difference between these 2 speakers in that frequency at 2:51)
@@jcmolero71 I'm guessing it's only a higher octave , I also have Flip 3 but Stealth edition which is advertised as a 80hz - 20khz freq range but it reaches down to 70hz from what I've thought before but When I bought the Xtreme 2 which is advertised as 55hz .. from there I can only say that the 70hz from the Flip 3 seems fake and also not even audible when listening to normal music.
Which speakers do you want to see battle against the all new flip 4?
DLX Willington would be interesting flip 4 vs charge 3
vava voom
Ue boom 2
Nigeriana Sporca piss off with that ue crap
Xb3 vs Flip4
JBL has a history of claiming 12 hour batteries and delivering 20+ hours at a reasonable volume
His accent is a mix of American , African and London
U Racist
I just bought a flip 3........and now i see the flip 4 is out
+Nathalie Jacob thinking of getting the flip 4 now? :)
Nathalie Jacob Just get charge 3 next.
DLX Willington yeah XD
Nathalie Jacob I got a flip 3 on Feb 7... flip 3 still is nice...
I don't really know what to do since the flip 4 is 139€ in my country. Flip 3 would be 85€. Would be willing to pay 100€ but not 140€ and no idea when the price will drop.
Short answer to "should you upgrade?" - Only if you want slightly lower frequency response, an extra 2 hour battery life and full waterproof-ness.
if you want bass charge 3 is way better
But that's also about 30 dollars more expensive.
Flip 3 has low bass. Flip 4 is way better !! Trust me ! I tested those 2 with a bass test and the flip 3 barely makes bass while the flip 4 is putting real BASS.
Romaric42 idk but cause 2 of my friends tested there’s
Flip 4 sounds clean
I got the flip 4 for Christmas and it’s INSANE I could go a block away and still hear it.
I have the flip 3 and I'm telling jbl is the best SPEAKER brand u can get
bubblebrains25 Vivatar is pretty good bruh
So is ue boom
bubblebrains25 , so you own all the other speakers out there that you can say this?
Kreatur84 yes, he does
Buck but flip 4 is way better
One other smallish change is that Flip 4 has been designed to be stable when sitting on its side. Subtle, but good I think.
My Flip 4 is being delivered today!
I agree, had a Pulse 2 and didn't like the vertical only design, nice to have the horizontal option in Flip 4 with proper stereo sound.
Angultra no he means vertical when he says it's side
How is the base on flip 4?
I bought yesterday the Flip 4 and the speaker is insane!!! :D
Come on to the PARTY!!! 🎶🎶🎶🎶

Thanks for your comments, man. It helps me a lot! Flip 4 will be my next choice.
It's funny that I've known JBL for a long time and even had a JBL car subwoofer back in 2002. Now all of a sudden JBL is a urban hipster brand lol.
Jbl have been making car stereos and headphones for years though and those used to be the urban hipter thing but nowdays its as common as smartphones and lost that preconception.. Just like bluetooth speakers
oh man, you're so cool for owning a JBL back in the day

I have a Flip 4 for a Year and I love it so much. when im playing songs in my room it can go up to 24hours of playing
JBL:we have a 12 hour battery
Also JBL but actualy 20+ hours
Wish they restore the original design of the bass radiator.I really hated the design
Lawrenz Nelson why it looks better
For me,it is ugly.I would prefer the ceramic radiator.in fact my charge 3 looks fantastic with the ceramic radiator,but I hope that it will not be transfered to the other JBL speakers.but still,I appreciate what JBL had done.#HEARTHETRUTH
I think i like Flip3, because i listening to this video from Flip3 connected to my iphone 7 plus, i love the sound 👍🏻
Flip 3 for me.. perfect size 👌
Thanks for the review, best comparison always. Is there a device that can connect different speakers?
When you trying listening to the frequency difference in the video on your flip 3 smh

Bullet MagnetMan which did you buy?
david popovic I haven't managed to get one yet. Money's a bit tight right now. But I am pretty sure it will be the Flip 4.
Excellent video. Very informative. You have a new subscriber!
Which is louder
You have to click that button next to the power button. It makes the speaker louder and bassier
Would anyone happen to know how to disable the startup/shutdown tones for the JBL Flip 4? Thank you in advance!
you can not... 😕
You can now :>
I'll stay with the JBL GO...
huh i didn't know the bass was that much better. i thought it was mostly for the battery life and water resistance. nice.
i have one to my father back in july as a birthday gift and he freaking loves it. now i'm getting one for myself.

I liked the sound comparison, well done and thanks.
In 2019 is connect plus backwards compatible ? One of my two JBL 3 needs replaced and was wondering if I can pair a 3 with a 4 ?
And also you can fix even the flip 3 battery to flip 4 speaker..? Thank you..
Sir, Jbl flip 3 or Jbl flip 3 stealth which one is better in respect to sound? Please reply.
you should do bass tests on every speaker review. That frequency test was really helpful.
Thanks for the video!!
i think flip 4 is the winner cauz i have one and it's so loud😍
CancerGaming PH not compared to my flip 5 lol
It just release this year and the comparasion is flip 3 and flip 4 not flip 5😌
According this flip 3 is winner 😂
How high the volume goes doesnt automatically make it a winner

+Martin Claudio Cota the speaker has a mic which it uses for hands free calling. But I can't guarantee that the echo dot will utilize it mic at all.
got flip 4 for 59 and sold flip 3 for 30 so it was 29 upgrade
GREAT VIDEO GREAT JOB
great quality videos! you've got a new sub

awesome review

should you put the volume all the way up on the speaker or the phone?
i just want a simple answer to find out which to get
YES OR NO??
ive just made a huge rant about my flip 3 speaker!! they keep sending me faulty ones!!! any tips!?
You can remove the battery alot easier and also the battery can be replaced with an extended life battery.
If want bass which one to prefer
What about flip3 stealth version. Is it waterproof or not?
Is it grey colour or white
I watched this in a flip 4 in that color and I love this speaker and I ended up loving this color
The 4 is clearly louder.
Thanks man bought one its actually pretty great
