"It's essentially a smaller and lighter version of the company's hugely popular Flip series, placing it between the Flip 7 and the JBL Go 4/Clip 5 on the portability scale. For some folks, that's going to be the goldilocks zone. But just to sweeten the deal, JBL has reached into its toolbox and given the Grip an integrated LED lightshow, clearly inspired by the brand's popular PartyBox lineup of party speakers."
"In keeping with JBL's colorful approach to its smallest speakers, the Grip is available in red, white, black, purple, "squad" (a camo motif), and blue (pictured here). It's 32 percent smaller than the JBL Flip 7, however, it's the Grip's weight that will make throwing it in a backpack feel like an easy decision: At 0.8 pounds, the Grip is less than half the weight of the Flip 7 (1.8 pounds), making it light enough to hang from tree branches."
JBL Grip is a compact, waterproof Bluetooth speaker positioned between the Flip 7 and the JBL Go 4/Clip 5 in portability. It is offered in multiple colors and a camo “squad” finish. The enclosure is 32 percent smaller than the Flip 7 and weighs 0.8 pounds, making it extremely packable. JBL rates battery life at up to 14 hours, though continuous playback at 50% volume produced about 10.5 hours; PlayTime Boost mode can extend runtime. The speaker delivers surprising sound for its size and features an integrated LED lightshow, but it lacks a speakerphone, aux input, and light-to-beat syncing.
