JBL just announced a pair of portable speakers that take advantage of the company’s AI Sound Boost technology. This software analyzes the signal and maxes out the driver while minimizing distortion. The company says this creates a boost in sound quality.

The Flip 7 now offers up to 14 hours of playtime, while the Charge 6 will work for up to 24 hours on a single charge.

JBL's bringing some major enhancements to these budget Bluetooth speakers, namely in the battery department. The Flip 7 is getting as much as four hours extra over its predecessor at a total 16 hours of playtime and (owing to its name) the Charge 6 can last as long as 28 hours.

The JBL Charge 6 is a versatile portable speaker offering enhanced sound clarity and deeper bass, thanks to its updated woofer and AI Sound Boost. It includes a detachable handle strap for easy carrying and an impressive IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating.

JBL’s previous Flip speaker, the Flip 6, was released in 2021. The JBL Flip 7 is the smaller and more affordable of the new portable Bluetooth speakers. It looks mostly the same as its predecessor, the 2021-released Flip 6, but JBL gave it a number of under-the-hood upgrades.

JBL has revealed the Flip 7 and Charge 6 Bluetooth speakers, with both new models teasing extensive upgrades to their features and performance.

JBL has given the new Charge a similar set of enhancements. The speaker now comes with a woven strap that can be used as a carry handle — with each end attached to the built-in lanyard rods — or as a wrist strap, with both ends attached to one end of the speaker.

JBL has announced two new portable Bluetooth speakers, the Flip 7 and Charge 6, both featuring the company’s AI Sound Boost technology. This software optimises audio output by analysing signals, maximising driver performance,
