Our family loves this speaker!
I love this portable speaker! It's so practical for on the go and you can link it to others to provide a surround sound! It's genius. I've tested it with some big bass drum and bass on full volume and there's no distortion at all! Small enough to fit in my everyday bag, packs a powerful punch in sound quality and has a generous amount of bass. We've taken ours to the park, on camping trips, picnics, and the beach. My littlest child (2yr old) loves the light on it too! The sound can be customised via the JBL app as can the light settings. It links to our devices so simply, everything about it is exactly what you want and need for a quick setup on the go. We've got a number of portable speakers, but this one is our favourite!

Amazing sound
The JBL Grip is a delightfully compact Bluetooth speaker that delivers surprisingly bold sound. With a 16 W output and AI Sound Boost, it optimises audio in real-time to maintain clarity even at high volumes.  It offers up to 14 hours of playback (12 hours + 2 hours with Playtime Boost), so it’s great for long sessions.  Built tough, it’s IP68-rated for waterproofing, dust protection, and can withstand drops from up to 1 metre.  On top of that, the rear ambient lighting adds flair and is customisable via the JBL Portable app.  All told, the Grip is a stylish, durable, and fun speaker that’s perfect for everyday use — whether you’re out on adventures or relaxing at home.

Great Speaker!
Bought about a month ago using a McDonald’s monopoly sticker, one of the best speakers I’ve ever owned. Also, editing the sound with the app makes it 10x better. And no I haven’t been paid to write this review.

Wow what speaker
I got this JBL flip and I wasn’t sure what to expect being such a small speaker. I’m absolutely amazed at the amount of sound that this little thing emits. Very good bass and clarity on music. I haven’t had this at full volume as it is way too loud. I love that it’s water resistant and dust proof as this allows me to use it in all elements including at work. I would definitely recommend this speaker to anyone who wants to blast out tunes but not wanting to carry lumpy speakers around. The only downside I’ve found with this speaker is the light on the back is a tad bit limited but not a deal breaker as it’s only on the back but all in all im really impressed with it and would rate this speaker very highly. There is also a loop on the back that you can hang the speaker off any small hook

Great speaker for on the go
Let’s get straight to it. What a lovely bit of kit. The form factor is great. Fits great in the hand and has a handy loop to hook on to things. Is a decent weight without being too heavy. And in terms of sound performance, very impressed. The speaker came with some power so a quick press of the power button turned it on with a satisfying punchy welcome noise which bode well. Typical Bluetooth connection by holding the Bluetooth button down and pairing as you’d do with any other Bluetooth device. So far linked to my phone and laptop and is really impressive for size. I’ve only got a few basic Sonos speakers around the house and have already used this when doing laundry, in the bathroom and then also taken to work. The mobility of the device being the obvious selling point. It’s a shame it doesn’t come with any sort of charger or even a USB-C cable but most people will no doubt already have one lying around. Recommended.

Unrivalled portable speaker
I bought this speaker 2 weeks ago and it's been in use every day since, battery life is very impressive I haven't had to charge it since the initial first charge. The sound and clarity is better than I've ever heard from such a small speaker.

Fantastic little thing!
I was super happy when I got to try this speaker out; we are a JBL family and we love our earbuds. High quality electricals without the extortionate price tag, and this is no different. I was immediately impressed with how simple this was to set up as it connected quickly straight from the box. The accompanying app is great for customizing your device with personalized sound output preference and changing the light dynamics but the speaker works just fine without it. It has some incredible volume for such a portable little thing, and the sleek design fits nicely in our home in just about any setting. The only downside was that it doesn't come with a USB C charging cable, but most homes have several these days so I get the idea behind not including unnecessary items, and id you don't have one they're easy enough to pick one up. If you're in the market for a new portable speaker I highly recommend this little power house and I can't wait to use it on my travels next summer!

Thanks for your question. Our JBL Grip does not support aux input for audio. They are designed to work exclusively via a Bluetooth wireless connection.
