Sure, Bluetooth speakers are awesome to have for picturesque beach trips, camping weekends, and other outdoor adventures. But they’re just as good to have for some sprinkler time in the yard with the kiddo, or for blasting some tunes or a podcast while you make food. No matter the use cases you have in mind, now’s a good time to pick up one of the best compact Bluetooth speakers. Now through July 17th, JBL’s Flip 7 is on sale for $89.95 ($70 off) at Woot with a 90-day warranty, marking a new all-time low.

Despite being about the size of a water bottle, the portable speaker delivers full, clear sound. It’s also built for just about anywhere, with an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance and the ability to survive drops from up to a meter onto concrete. Plus, JBL includes an interchangeable carrying strap and carabiner attachment, making it easy to clip onto a backpack or carry with a finger. Rounding things out, the speaker lasts up to 14 hours on a charge, with Playtime Boost mode extending battery life by another two hours when you need it.
It also includes a few extras for a better listening experience. You can pair the Flip 7 with multiple compatible JBL speakers for bigger sound, while JBL’s AI Sound Boost feature is designed to reduce distortion at higher volumes. It also supports lossless audio over USB-C with compatible devices and services, allowing for clearer, more detailed playback than Bluetooth.
