I had to cut out one song due to copyright and had to re-encode it again, thus it took a bit longer to upload.

JBL Flip 6 vs Motion+ & Soundcore Boost

Comments

Nemanja

The crackling in the JBL might be because of the battery. I have the same problem on my Denon Envaya pocket, once the battery comes around 50% I get connectivity issues/crackling, especially on higher volumes, but sometimes lower as well. Also, since I know you always try to get the best quality over the video, I heard that uploading a video on third party websites is actually better through Vimeo rather than Youtube (but I don't know for sure).

Dennis

wieder perfekte Zeit. und ab gehts :) Danke! fehlt nur noch die Sony xb 33 die ja Klanglich auch echt Super ist. Eventuell noch ein Outdoor Test.

But Vimeo requires a monthly plan and for uploading several GB a month would cost quite a lot

hardcore (metal) sound much better on jbl, more clear. I really like to check the loudspeakers turning hardcore music, because it is very fast music with full spectrum, which makes the loudspeaker get lost and starts to mix the sounds, which causes the effect that occurred in anker. I have to admit that jbl started making interesting speakers, finally. The price has increased, but the quality is also impressive

Dennis

i think its some Bluetooth issue from the jbl flip 6 possible its fixed soon. I dont think its the battery never know this issue about battery :D

Nemanja

Didn't know that. Youtube is good enough anyway, and in my opinion the recordings are excellent

Benedikt Geißler

Welcher der von dir bisher getesteten Lautsprecher, denkst du, hat das beste Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis? (in dem Preisbereich von JBL Flip 6, Soundcore Motion+, Tribit MaxSound+, Earfun UBoom)

I have the Flip6 and love it. I even sold the Minirig 3 since I think the Flip6 sounds even better and has better features. Fortunately I don’t have any bluetooth issues with it, no cracks. I am considering a second one to pair in TWS.

Pavel Grishkalis

Thanks for the video Very interesting compare charge 5 vs flip 6

Dennis

Charge 5 vs flip 6 is nice test cause same price factor nearly

Stephan Kappmeier

Ich habe den Flip 6 auch heute erhalten. Er kann es tatsächlich mit dem Teufel Motiv Go aufnehmen, den ich hier noch habe. Das hätte ich nicht gedacht! Der Teufel spielt zwar noch etwas tiefer herab und in Stereo (selbst ohne Dynamore), dafür klingt der Flip 6 nicht so dumpf und auch leise irgendwie punchiger. Zudem überrascht mich die Power vom Flip 6. Spielt er auf 40% Lautstärke, muss ich den Motiv Go schon auf gut über 50% stellen… Bei hohen Lautstärken zieht der Teufel dann aber hinsichtlich Klangfülle davon.

I have no charge 5. But IMO flip 6 sounds better

Dennis

ok das ist natürlich mega. Ich werde ihn auch Kaufen, ich warte aber noch % ab.. Ja wurde mal Zeit das JBL mal wieder was "fähiges" raushaut. Dennoch vor dem Kauf will ich ihn live hören.. aber den gibt es einfach nirgends JBL hat wohl liefer probleme.

JBL Flip 6 is probably the best company has ever had in portable speaker segment by now. I was thinking they are going to finally drown in mediocre sound segment. Luckily enough Anker Soundcore Motion+ was not a slouch. We can still rock Motion+ knowing that it competes decently. Thank you for the comparison.

Thank you so much! I'll be on the lookout for any BF deals in the UK (I'm sure it'll come!). JBL Flip 6!

Otto

I got my Flip 6 a few days ago. It's been a while since I last bought a portable speaker (I used to do that a lot), and this one I finally like quite a bit. Solid in almost every way. It's a bit on the expesnive side but.. Its JBL so I guess that's the reason why. Mine doesn't have any of the connection issues that yours seems to have by the way.

Martin Lerke

Hab jetzt auch die Flip 6 und das Problem tritt komischerweise bei Apple auf mit den Bluetooth problemen hab es auf dem iPad Air auch. Nur auf meinem Handy mit Android funktioniert es reibungslos.

Marcus Rother

To the Anker. I guess both problems are sample variation problems. the disappearing bass i cannot hear from two different boosts, but I can hear it in your videos. and the rattling is only on one of two boosts.

oluvsgadgets

It’s not sample variation, their other speakers have the same problem, the Boom, the Rave Neo etc…

David Zecua

Damn, has it really been 4 years since I've last considered a JBL speaker? Anyhow, since the Motion Plus retains more power at max volume, would increasing bass even more on the Flip 6 make it sound bigger at max or near max volumes or would it be too much for the driver?

Florin

For the Flip 6 do you have the GG or TL model? (serial no. starts with GG or TL) As i see from other reviews the two models have slightly different components and a different sound signature.

I've been really impressed with my recently purchased Motion+, which I bought at discount on AliExpress for just under US$84 (incl. delivery). With the single Android app I have ample adjustment and control for the Motion+, a set of Life P3 earbuds ($67), and the Q30's ($75). This Anker Soundcore ecosystem delivers a lot of performance for the money, IMHO.

Kai Kuklok

Gab es eigentlich schon etwas zum Bose Soundlink Flex?

oluvsgadgets

Von mir nicht; wird hier nach wie vor nicht angeboten.

Kai Kuklok

Danke ist an mir vorbeigegangen, dass er hier noch nicht verfügbar ist.

Tomislav Malbasic

in the end, soundwise - flip 6 or motion + ? at 34:18 when you say "but i think the quality is also better" - does that refer only to boost or motion + too?

oluvsgadgets

The Flip 6 is simple: just turn it on an enjoy. You don’t need to play around with settings unlike with the Ankers. The Boost has some bass issues at low levels although they may be fixed in the meantime as the Boom got an update which cured those problems.

Tomislav Malbasic

and how about motion + ? is it much better then flip 6 ?

Tomislav Malbasic

problem is i don`t understand at the end if you are refering to motion + or boost, comparing to flip 6

bodi

The Flip6 is a good one but still not worth its price IMO, i sent it back after comparing it against 2 Boosts which cost less than one jbl. With the Boosts in stereo the Flip sounds toyish and the Mono design is just a pity. By the way, I don‘t have any issues with bass like you have. Neither with the Boost nor with the Bomm (that I also use in stereo, and the same result comparing two of them for far less money against one Extreme 3). So after all to me no need to spend money on JBL-products. Nice time to all of you and good start into 2022,,,

oluvsgadgets

All have issues you probably just don’t notice it. Play analog from Soulpersona

bodi

With Analog it happens on the Soundcore Boost, you are right. But to me as a Drummer the Bassdrum Sound of that song is one of the boomiest I‘ve ever heard and I personally don‘t like that kind of Bassdrum, even with my HD600 it doesn‘t fit my liking. And it‘s mixed way to present above the rest of the song. It is right, that this pumping performance with that kind of Sound is annoying, so I wont listen to that with such small speakers. With the maxsound plus this special Bassdrum sounds way better, ok. I prefer for example the Bassdrum in „Territories“ from „Rush“ or „Give Blood“ from „Pete Townshend“, and for electronics productions like „Go with it“ from „Oliver“ and there it doesn‘t happen. Thanks again for all your work, always a pleasure watching your honest reviews and comparisons. Hope one day you could design a Speaker and a Headphone to your own liking, that surely would be a pleasure for all of us. Many greetings and all best wishes for the new year.

oluvsgadgets

With analog it was always obvious but I noticed it with many other tracks as well. Also Chillhop doesn’t sound great on the Boom and Boost. Still I think that a speaker should be able to reproduce what was recorded regardless of how it was recorded. If it already fails at low levels I cannot quite take it seriously

bodi

So that‘s your claim and therefore I appreciate your work and opinion, and I think this is the reason why we all are here and support you to keep doing your work. Sometimes I can‘t believe how much stuff I bought since I found your Channel 😂, maybe the search for the one Equipment will never be over 🤪, but it‘s a fun kind of Hobby to me. BTW, is there anything promising on the speaker market for 2022 you are looking forward to?

M M

I had the same Bluetooth issues with the Flip 6 and also the Charge 5, mainly on my iPhone and MacBook. It was so annoying that i don't wanted to keep them. Never had these issues with the Motion+. I hope they bring out a new updated version of the Motion+ this year.

Alex Webster

I picked up a Flip 6 GG today on sale already for $149 CAN ($-20). It sounds fantastic. My Charge 2+ battery has finally started to go and I wanted something about the same size. It's been a great speaker, but the Flip 6 completely smokes the Charge 2+ for mid/treble clarity and sounds far less processed. Thanks for all your vids, they really helped.
