JBL Flip 7
JBL Charge 6
The JBL Charge 6 is the step up model from the JBL Flip 7, and despite the number difference, they're from the same generation of speakers. They share similar tech specs: Auracast for pairing with other compatible JBL speakers, graphic EQ, and Play Time Boost (to extend the battery life). The Charge 6 weighs about double the Flip 7, though it's still portable. Due to its larger size, it reproduces more low-end. The Charge 6 also has more than twice the battery life. The central reason to buy the Flip 7 is that it's smaller and offers similar tech in a smaller package, but it's hampered by a little more compression at max volume, not as much bass extension, and a lower battery life.
