The JBL Flip 7 launched into the world of Bluetooth speakers in April, but it's already more than impressed. Succeeding the five-star Flip 6, it delivers hearty improvements on build quality, features and usability.
And we're happy to say we've found it at its lowest ever price – and only the second ever time it's seen a discount, just in time for summer.
For just £115 at Richer Sounds, you can pick up the JBL Flip 7 (only in Black) with a £14 discount. It might not sound like much, but seeing any kind of discount on this impressive speaker this early on is something we have to talk about.
The JBL Flip 7 has to be the best Flip that JBL has ever made. We said as much when we awarded it a top spot in the best Bluetooth speakers on the market right now and here's why.
Sonically, it's a huge step forward for the speaker with marked improvements across the board on build, usability and features.
While it still boasts the iconic burrito-shaped look that JBL users know and love, there's been a few welcome improvements, including an upgrade on the waterproof and dustproof ratings to the IP68 certificate over the IP67 of the older gen.
So, if you're planning a summer BBQ or some time by the pool, the JBL Flip 7 is ready to bring the tunes.
And using it just got a whole lot easier, too. The control buttons have been intelligently designed for ease of use, alongside a high quality and stable wireless connection making connecting your tunes via Bluetooth 5.4 or the USB-C input a total breeze.
Portability has also improved. You've now got more options than ever for how you travel around with your JBL Flip 7 from the built-in adjustable carry loop. Applied as either a small fabric finger loop or carabiner hook, both of which can be detached and swapped.
Plus, 14 hours of battery life on a single charge is better than ever before, plus an extra two if you're using Playtime Boost. A drop in bass for a couple more hours with your tunes.
Feature-wise, there's Auracast functionality, meaning you can pair up two Flip 7s in stereo or hook up multiple Auracast-compatible units via the JBL Portable app for seamless multi-room sound.
In our review, we said the Flip 7 is "the best-sounding Flip there's ever been" with whole new levels of clarity and insight, skilful handling of dynamics and rhythms and far more bass.
This led our expert testers to say: "We know this is a fairly compact portable Bluetooth speaker, but judged on such terms, the Flip 7 evidences what you might call genuine musicality".
We said this well-priced and well-rounded speaker would be hard to beat at this price, but with £14 off at Richer Sounds, it looks like we're being truly spoilt.
