I compared the JBL Flip 6, Marshall Emperton and Bose Soundlink Flex. All 3 were very impressive but I decided on the Flex because I could “feel” the bass.

Bought my first set of bose home speakers 13 years ago. Two moves and three houses later they sound and work flawlessly.

The green edits on the left are handy, great detail. Thanks for adding!

I preferred the sound quality of the JBL, glad you did this test I was going to get the Bose

[garyleslie]

Kudos on review, great to the point comparison feedback. Bought the Bose Soundlink Flex for $110 at Costco. I’m not an expert on sound, Happy with Bose.

I have flip 6 and it sounds great playing every type of music. Crisp highs, clear midrange and a satisfying base for a small speaker. I’ve heard the Bose sound link flex and the difference wasn’t that noticeable for me to buy it.

I really like the layout of your review. Especially those icons on the left side. Insane production value.

[ikusanjay]

Why on earth you kept the flip 6 upside down?
It is meant to lay down so that the passive radiator pushes the bass without any obstruction..

I’m a tradesman, have used a jbl speaker for a few years as a work speaker . Can’t believe how durable it is . Gets rained on, knocked around, thrown in with the tools, and just keeps on going, every day for a few years

I have two of the Bose Flex. I take them when I’m kayaking. The sound is amazing using the cockpit as a resonating chamber.

Watched many vids on the Bose, no one mentioned the silicone trim…..So thanks for that

[dannywallace]

Just bought Bose incredible sound
Love it

This was a great video review. Well done. It didn't help me with my decision making, but that is not meant to be a complaint. It just attests to how fair and honest your video was!

Hey there One thing I'd like to mention, iv used the flip 4 extensively and my friend has used the Soundlink mini 2, the battery wear over the years on the flip 4 is much much faster than the bose. So whilst buying a portable speaker I would surely Keep that in mind. Even after replacing the battery from an authorized JBL service centre it was just not long lasting as the stock product. Just my personal experience. Hence I feel in that category bose does do well over jbl.

The Bose flex is very cool in my opinion just got mine love that the EQ is available just by the way you position the speaker it activates Bose signature sound, mono, and surround (you'll hear it). The most impressive thing about Bose is that not only does it have EQ but it can change the range of sound on its own. For example if the song gets intense the volume goes up it's incredible

I had purchased the JBL Flip 6, being a JBL fan for some time. I have not been impressed with Bose products before. However, numerous reviews of these two speakers has made me reconsider my choice.

[GeelongCableLocations]

It's interesting that this video was made 2 years ago, in 2022 and yet the title says "what is the best to buy in 2024" pretty good that you knew back then what would be the best to buy now 😂🤣🤣🤣

[DEWWYA]

Isn't the Flip 6 designed to be positioned in the horizontal position and not the vertical?

[brandonlee]

Owned the JBL flip 6 and charge 5 and while they’re great the Bose is way more of a quality sound to my ears and the charge 5 comes in second followed by the flip 6. I was having trouble deciding and am grateful I went with the Bose soundlink flex.

[lucetothebridge]

a pair of Bose SoundLink Flex in stereo mode in my living room, it's HEAVEN !! worth every penny believe me.
