This JBL Outdoor Speaker Is $90 Right Now
The JBL Flip 6 is currently $89.95 on Woot (and will remain so for the next four days or until supplies run out)—$40 off the regular price of $129.95, and if you’re a Prime member, you also get free standard shipping (otherwise it’s $6). It’s available in black, white, turquoise, gray and green, giving you a decent selection of options to suit your vibe. The design is classic JBL – cylindrical, durable, you can safely put it in your bag. Its passive radiators at both ends let you feel the bass in your hands (earning a spot in PCMag’s ” Best Outdoor Speakers of 2025 ” review). Just don’t expect a real subwoofer experience; after all, it’s still a compact speaker.
Inside, the Flip 6 features a 20W woofer and a 10W tweeter, covering a frequency range of 63Hz to 20kHz. It connects via Bluetooth 5.1 and supports AAC and SBC Bluetooth codecs , but not AptX, so audiophiles looking for higher quality streaming may want to look elsewhere. The top panel houses volume and playback controls, although the multi-function button, oddly enough, only allows you to skip forward, not backward. There’s also JBL PartyBoost, which lets you connect multiple compatible JBL speakers for more powerful sound. Battery life is rated at around 12 hours, but this depends on how loud you like your music. Turn it on and you’ll burn through that charge much faster. There’s no speakerphone feature or auxiliary input, which could be a deal breaker if you like wired options.
The Flip 6 is built to last: with an IP67 rating, it’s completely dust and waterproof, meaning it can withstand being submerged in a pool and even swimming (though don’t expect Bluetooth to work well underwater). It also comes with Woot’s 90-day limited warranty for added peace of mind. JBL’s companion app gives you access to a customizable three-band equalizer and PartyBoost controls, although the app itself is fairly basic. In terms of sound, the Flip 6 delivers impressive low-end depth, and at moderate volumes the bass is strong without distortion. However, if you raise it too high, digital signal processing (DSP) kicks in, cutting out the low frequencies, according to PCMag’s review . If you’re considering alternatives, it might be worth picking up the Sony SRS-XB23 for around $95.
