Deciding between these two. Mostly going to be using them in a room/house, for everyday listening. Prefer a good quality sound that is balanced, and good quality bass is also a very nice bonus.

Have read reviews and comparisons and still unable to decide

People say you can listen to Bose longer than you can to other non-Bose speakers. How is this so? Will my ears get tired after listening to a non-Bose speaker after 1 hour or so?

EDIT: Watched this comparison video, and isnt it clear that the JBL Charge 5 wins?

Thanks in advance

I’m buying my daughter a speaker for her birthday. Normal use will by typical teenage girl stuff: beach days, park, go to friends homes etc. it would need to be portable for her to toss in a bag.

I have landed on either the Bose Soundlink Flex or JBL Flip 6 due to size and my perceived overall quality for both (I have both Bose Soundock II for my home office and JBL Boombox 2 for cottaging etc so am familiar with overall sound quality for both).

These are both about the same price.

So, I’m looking for feedback on:

• size / portability

• sound quality

• features

• any other thoughts

Thanks!
