Both speakers offer lots of features and excellent sound. FLIP Essential is cheaper than FLIP 5. It all comes down to what type of features you prefer, such as a long-lasting battery or maybe an affordable price for a good companion!

No matter which product you choose, you won't be disappointed with JBL Legendary sound signature and features!
