    Is this Eshay approved for public transport entertainment?

    • +12

      only on max volume

      • +1

        Yeah but it doesn’t max out as high as what the public would expect, so you won’t be able to piss off as many people as say with a Flip 6.

    • lacks LEDs

    • Great bluetooth speaker regardless

      Just grab it!

  • OOS pretty much everywhere in Vic

    20w for anyone wondering. Not that powerful

      Interesting that it says there's none in the ACT, but the Officeworks site says that there's some available in multiple stores here!

      • +1

        It doesn't say there's none?

        Unless you were looking up the top part, which shows Delivery/C&C, whereas the link above shows the stores that have it in-store

    I've got an older version of this I bought years ago and it's been great! Might pick up a second if there's any in stock around me and see if the sync thing works.

      Same here, if you are referring to the version using microUSB?
      Can you share what you mean by the "sync thing"??

        I tried to edit my comment but couldn't because of your reply! lol

        Same here, if you are referring to the version using microUSB?

        Nah mine is the Flip 5 which has USB C. It looks exactly like the one in this post except it the buttons on the back.

        Can you share what you mean by the "sync thing"??

        Basically you wirelessly(bluetooth) connect the speakers to each other and your phone/tablet and the both play audio at the same time and in stereo if you want.
        For me it would be great as I could have them in multiple rooms as I do chores!

        Here's what I was going to put into my edit:

        Seems I missed the "Essentials" in the name and it turns out this is a more basic model, so doesn't have the syncing options like my older(2019) Flip 5 does. Seems to have the same quality drivers(speakers) as my Flip 5, but not as good as the newer Flip 6 (2022) and 7 (2025).

        Found this comparison table for those interested:
        https://comparisontabl.es/jbl-bluetooth-speakers/

        Assuming it's actually the same quality as the Flip 5, I can still recommend it if you're happy with just 1 speaker.

          My bad!

          Now I understand, cheers!

          Thanks for the comparison table, definitely helps as I can get lost in the sea of information available.

          Ta!

          Nice table find,cheers

    • Do you remember if it stays on, or automatically goes to standby when not in use?

      • +1

        It shuts down after a period of inactivity. I don't remember the exact time.

  • I have ordered a Marley Roots Solar Bluetooth Speaker from a previous deal, which one shall I go for, this JBL Essential or that?

    Usage: connect my pc in a small living room (15 square meters)

    • +1

      I think the only reason to keep the Marley Roots is if you really, really need the built-in bottle opener.

      • That's a fair point. but the reality is they cancelled my order directly and refunded me…

  • -2

    Has anyone managed to fit one of these safely in a bottle holder of their bike?

    • Cable tie / duct tape to your frame.

      Please don't

  • Is this better than my small Flip 5? Bought in 2021

  • +2

    Here I was always thinking when an item shows as "not available online" you couldn't purchase, only realising that there's stock via @spackbace / youinstock, then changing stores it shows up as avail at stores with stock for online purchase once selected.
    Very weird way of selling items online considering everyone else shows you stores with stock after selecting an item for purchase.
    Any who, you learn something new everyday lol

    • +1

      I wouldn't trust their stock tracking. I went to 2 different OW stores yesterday, both with stock indicated online and neither had the item in question

      • I hear ya, I just ordered & waited for confirmation which ended up coming through, especially considering oil prices these days.

  • +1

    2 left at albion park orfice works kept behind the counter

  • What do we reckon vs the Xiaomi Sound Outdoor 30W from this deal. Basically same price after shipping

      Xiaomi is a much better pick for both its design and audio quality
