JBL Clip 5 Portable Bluetooth Speaker
Overview
The JBL Clip 5 is an ultra-portable Bluetooth speaker small enough to hold in one hand, with a built-in carabiner so you can clip it to a backpack, belt loop or bag and take your music everywhere. A powerful driver and passive radiator deliver bigger, louder JBL Pro Sound with punchy bass. It's for hikers, campers, commuters and anyone who wants good sound without carrying a big speaker.
The completely redesigned, fully integrated carabiner has a much wider opening, so it attaches to just about anything. Battery life runs up to 12 hours on a charge, and Playtime Boost adds up to 3 more. The IP67 rating makes it waterproof and dustproof, ready for the trail, the campsite or the pool.
Pair two Clip 5 speakers for stereo sound, or connect multiple Auracast-enabled JBL speakers for bigger sound over more space. The JBL Portable app adds EQ presets and a fully customizable equalizer for highs, mids and lows, plus product support and updates. A USB-C cable is included for charging.
Simcoe Audio Video Insight
Use Playtime Boost when you need the battery to last a full day out; JBL says it optimizes performance to extend playtime by up to 3 hours. If one Clip 5 isn't enough for a campsite or patio, a second one paired over Auracast gives you stereo sound. With the integrated carabiner, there's no separate clip or strap to keep track of.

Buyer's Guide
Who It's For
- The Hiker or Camper: Wants waterproof sound clipped to a pack.
- The Commuter: Wants small, light sound for every day.
- The EQ Tinkerer: Wants to shape the sound in the app.
How It Compares
Compared with the JBL Flip 7, which delivers 35 W, IP68 protection and up to 14 hours of playtime, the Clip 5 is the smaller, lighter choice at 0.285 kg with a built-in carabiner and up to 15 hours with Playtime Boost. Choose the Clip 5 to carry on a pack or belt, and the Flip 7 for more volume.
