Short answer: the JBL Flip 7, on battery life and tuning. The Fugoo Sport is pretty neutral with just a slight upper-mids peak, but its battery life is well short of the original Fugoo’s 40 hours at about 10 hours, there is no companion app and the Bluetooth connection can be unstable. The Flip 7 is very neutral, almost pocket size and only a little bump at 4kHz short of the Flip 6.
What stands out about the JBL Flip 7: It’s a very neutral, very small, almost pocket sized speaker with slightly more treble and slightly deeper bass than the already great Flip 6. The compromise: it has a small bump at 4kHz that makes it not quite as neutral as the Flip 6, and may actually be a slight step down from it.
The Fugoo Sport’s case: It has a pretty neutral sound with just a slight peak in the upper mids. The catch is: its battery life is well short of the original Fugoo’s 40 hours at about 10 hours, there’s no companion app for EQ or control, and the Bluetooth connection can be a bit unstable.
Buy the JBL Flip 7. It is rated higher for sound quality; the Fugoo Sport is no longer sold new.
