yup. Charge 3, 4 and 5 cant connect with each other either in any combination... i wonder what shat in their head to change it with EVERY generation and not make it backwards compatible... not getting any of those ever again...
So after a few minutes of wiggling a few JBL speakers around, which almost drove me insane, the clear answer is NO. Different protocol so no go. Understandable as it's meant to pair 2 of the same speakers, they don't want you to link a new to an old speaker, they want you to buy 2 new ones. So the flip6 will use partymode+ which will not be compatible with the flip5
Thanks for the detail explaining. It's too late to see this video I just tried to pair flip4 & 5 (which i got today) in front of my family... It's a problem if JBL doesn’t list this pair limitation on flip5 product information... sigh
I wish I would have known that before buying my Flip 5, I was JUST trying to connect my charge 4 and flip 5 and was wondering why it wasn't working.......DAAAAAAAAMN IT.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a JBL flip 5 and JBL xtreme 1 and I also have a Samsung S8+ and I managed to connect both but not with the JBL App...with my bluetooth settings. So anyone having S8 or up or some iPhones, can connect both, just head to your bluetooth settings and under the advanced menu you can connect 'dual audio' 😁
I was just about to buy a flip 5. I have 2 flip 4s but I am not out of principal . Why on earth would this be done? It happened with the Pulse 3 didn’t connect to my 2. That’s why. Bought the flip. But that’s it. Flip 4 is pretty incredible. Deep rich sound.
It seems to me that this is no accident. I've supported JBL and all those speakers from the first flip one. now I am getting a little bit tired of always having to upgrade my perfectly good working speakers just to support the new Bluetooth connection mode. now I have a JBL boombox to flip 4s I will have to sell and repurchase because I am guessing that a new boombox will be available with the new Bluetooth connection. I was just waiting for this to happen. This is getting boring and predictive, change the record JBL. in fact this time round I am thinking of skipping this upgrade for this very reason
Thanks I just made a great deal on a second hand Flip 4 - And the way I answer a company for doing this kind of bullshit is by making this my last JBL product purchase for life. I did that with Sony 32 years ago (And I also worked in an electronics store and steered all my client away from them! Lol!)
@My Devices SONOS did that a few years ago …planned obsolescence …Apple denies it but they somehow get super slow in order to convince you to buy a new phone and camera. I recently learned on how apple is using the Blue Meshnet (sp?) in order to track us, find our EMEI #s wherever we are. And to use our battery life and blue tooth to find phones or the apple equivalent of itiles.
Well I've previously owned the !JBL Charge 4 and it's an amazing speaker but.... Just carrying it around was a complain, yes I do have a backpack, yes I do have hands... But I just want something I can listen to without holding it in my hands or having to carry it in my back where it'll sound muffled, and it can't fit in the cup holder on the side of my bag so therefore I'd choose the Flip series now when it comes down to the flip series I want something with good design and sound... But with "Bass" now yes Flip 1, 2, 3 have stereo but less bass, and connect plus... But then I want something with bass, better looks and over all size... So I'd choose the Flip 5 over the Charge 4, and the Xtreme 2...
I am SO fed up with JBL’s disrespect to their clients. First, it was connect, then connect+, then party boost and now Auracast? Non of them are compatible with one another, that is a ridiculous! They force you to buy two or more of the same items or buy different speaker models of the same generation which is a dirty move by them.
Everybody that's watching this is watching it for the same reason, so too late for us LOL It is interesting that JBL would consistently create self canceling selling points.
@@swekiwi4517 ok so just connect both speakers and when you swipe down from the top of the screen you will see "media" press that and enable Samsung dual audio. I found still dont get it search it up on TH-cam I guarantee you will figure it out. Note that speakers with different audio kodaks or bluetooth versions can be out of sync and that problem cannot be fixed.
I just spent so many hours with a brand new jbl charge 4 with my fairly new flip 5. Wondering what is going on? Now I know. So lame. But I’m sure they have a good reason. Will research more
That's just so lame! What a greedy $ strategy. Thank you for this. I just got a flip 4, then found out about the flip 5, got that thinking, okay, party time...nope! They won't even play correctly together in duel mode bluetooth mode.
is there another way to connect the two ? maybe with a feature that allows to connect two bluetooth speakers together , besides jbl's connect + and party boost ?
Some smartphones allow to connect and use two Bluetooth speakers at the same time. I’ve never used one of those phones, so I don’t know how well that works.
WHHHAAAATTT!!!!!!! WAIT, So you're telling me that I CANNOT pair a JBL Extreme 2 with a Charge 5 in Party Boost mode??? But the JBL Boombox 2 will actually work with the Charge 5 in Party Boost??!!! And the older models won't work with Party Boost..??!!!! ........Damn!!!!!.....my head is swimming. I can't believe that
Bitch I’ve been waiting and figuring it out why the hell this is not working only to find out that MY FLIP 5 actually does not support to connect into flip 4, like come on!
And what's even more dumb: the flip 5 has no AUX and the passive radiators look uglier. And you can't buy a flip 4 on any online shop anymore except used on ebay.
Don’t get a charge 5 if you wanna connect to a charge 4 won’t work biggest disappointment of my life,only bought the 180$ speaker to connect to my 4 for more sound.
Why would you even make this video??? You could’ve said right at the beginning that it doesn’t work, or even better, not even make the video in the first place….. Clickbait at its finest
JBL changing this is bullshit I have a xtreme 1 and a flip 4 that can not connect. I was going to get a flip 5 but since they don't want you to connect your speakers together I will do a hard pass on the flip off 5. JBL is really pissing me off with changing to a 3rd version of speaker connect that you can not connect speakers from its own brand. I'm getting ready to get rid of all my JBL products epic fail to JBL.
What a FAIL from JBL.....bought a flip 5 and I have been back to the store to get my money back....it is ridiculous that they come up with a new standard just to boost their sales...SCREW you JBL....I will buy something else then....
JBL should be sued for such shit. I have jbl boombox....i was planning to buy a portable one ( boombox is really not portable....it weighs a tonne)....i wanted to buy flip 5, but i guess we all are f***ed.......JBL should be ashamed. What we are supposed to do.....buy completely new series??...better go for UE....they offer back compatibility throughout all 3 generations.
Sucks balls! Not the video, which is very revealing. So I got to choose, what the f am I gonna do with the flip 4? I bought it used- and I haven’t seen any on sale🙇🏼♂️back to the drawing board
I don't have a Flip3 at the moment, so I am not certain. The question is if there was a firmware update for the Flip3 that updates the older 'Connect' to 'Connect+'. There were a few JBL models that were able to do this update.

True
Your EPIC FAIL is unfortunately not compatible with the new FAIL BOOST
Yeah, and so is the BATTERY!! These speakers are junk.
What next, a new standard with the flip 6 so you can't connect that together with older models? what a joke.
Na pewno tak będzie

I wished I've seen this video before buying a Charge 4 and a Flip 5 that was on sale, now I cant pair the two.
rip
try it with jbl connect app
@@kappi7565 still don’t work
Sameeee😭😭😭
Jbl should've stayed with connect+
👍👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😊🤔
The range of Connect+ is double the range of original JBL Connect, but Party Boost has almost double the range of Connect+
Sony tried to make their speakers' upgrade backwards compatible and the range was worse than Connect+
They should make party boost backwards compatible
Wtf i waisted my money for no reason
Feel the same😭
Thank you for the video and answering the question so quickly. SUPER DISAPPOINTING on JBL’s part!!!
I really like your honesty buddy..good job with the first 60 seconds of the video

Nor can you connect the extreme 2 to a flip 5 even though they are the newest models of each series. Whack.
Wtf thats wack AF!! Jbl got us fuuuucked up!
JBL better get their act together
Thanks for the detail explaining.

Did your flip 3 connect with flip 5?

Aw!! I have the 4 my brother just got the 5 for christmas and now we can’t connect
Same ...

Same but my birthday
Trying (very unsuccessfully) to connect two flip 5 speakers together. Not working with the app or party boost. Help please
Got my dad a flip5 for his birthday. And thinking I can connect my charge3 and flip3 to it too. Yet. I got bamboozled again by JBL. JBL fix this.

Carlos Martinez can make this on iPhone X ?
Mars Phoo no
Sync is missing in this way
I got my wife (by request) a flip 5 IN PINK. We have 3 Flip 4’s 🤦♂️
I feel your pain.
Oh no, did you try the AUX connector?
Flip 5 does not have 3.5mm aux input
Yeah, I really miss the AUX jack
For waterproof reason it have not the aux connector

Updates will be made on all connect+ speakers i guess...😕
It won’t called jbl and they said they won’t be able too
So now the same thing is going on what happened to Xtreme owners, when they could not upgrade from Connect to Connect+ ??
Yes I hate it
So the main purpose is to buy 2 flip5's and play them in stereo

Can you connect flip4 or flip5? If yes what minute does he say it?
No, you cannot connect the two speakers.
You can if you have a Samsung

I already had a JBL4 and was going to get a 2nd one but was gonna go with the jbl5 or 6... but because of this I just went with another JBL4!
If you have a newer Samsung you can still connect them together with Samsung dual audio. So yes you can connect them together:)
Could you tell us how to? Just googled and it seemmed... a bit cluttered.

thank you for pointing this out about the flip 4 and 5 not linking. unbelievable. terrible hit on customers like myself. makes the feature useless.
Thankyou so much that was amazing 👏 💖 🎉 me and the wife were fighting about it
Hahaha lol thanks
I connected them. Connect your phone to both and then enable sync play in your advanced bt settings
I should have checked prior to purchase. Bugga!
Agrh. What a shame to jbl to not make backward compatible formats. Terrible.
Great video short and sweet.
Finally got the answer I ve been looking for 😅
Damn it I just recieved a flip5 for my birthday just so i could connect it to my flip 4 damn it. Thats so fucking stupid
Saved me a bunch of dicking around trying to get them to play nice👍
My jbl charge 3 and jbl flip 5 can’t connect partyboost why..?
Good information! Thanks ☺️
is there another way to connect the two ?

Some smartphones allow to connect and use two Bluetooth speakers at the same time.
I’ve never used one of those phones, so I don’t know how well that works.
So what can you connect to flip 5?
Pulse 4 and Boombox 2
You can combine the deeper in settings but now I'm getting a delay?
There is a firmware update have you tried that .??
Conneting yes or not
WHHHAAAATTT!!!!!!! WAIT, So you're telling me that I CANNOT pair a JBL Extreme 2 with a Charge 5 in Party Boost mode??? But the JBL Boombox 2 will actually work with the Charge 5 in Party Boost??!!! And the older models won't work with Party Boost..??!!!! ........Damn!!!!!.....my head is swimming. I can't believe that
Can’t I connect them both using Bluetooth 5.0?
IF UPDATE FLIP 4,YES YOU CAN CONECTED FLIP 5
At this point I fell like he’s flexing on his jbl
Bitch I’ve been waiting and figuring it out why the hell this is not working only to find out that MY FLIP 5 actually does not support to connect into flip 4, like come on!
Can I connect 3 JBL flip 5 together as well? Or 4 of them?
Yes, that is possible.
And what's even more dumb: the flip 5 has no AUX and the passive radiators look uglier. And you can't buy a flip 4 on any online shop anymore except used on ebay.
When jbl cuts the bullshit and supports the old and future devices maybe I'll buy some speakers + 3.5mm jack
Thank yoy
That's not true you can connect them you have to play thru 4 and connect to 5
THANK YOU!!!
Can you just connect to all of them with the app
The app does connect to Flip 4 and Flip 5.
Like for the fast answer Ty
