How to replace your JBL Flip 5 battery
Before starting, turn off your speaker and unplug all cables. Handle internal components carefully and avoid bending or damaging the battery. Some Flip 5 units differ slightly in screw positions or connector layouts, depending on the serial number (for example, “GG” versions match our guide).
Important: Opening the speaker may affect its waterproof protection. Ensure all seals and covers are properly re-seated when reassembling.
Step 1 – Remove the fabric cover
- The mesh outer cover is secured with plastic clips. Start at the lower edge beside the buttons and insert a plastic spudger into the seam.
- Pry gently upwards to release the clips one by one, then slide the tool along the edge. Repeat on the opposite side until all clips are free and you can lift the cover off completely.
Step 2 – Remove the side bracket and end cap
- Depending on your Flip 5 version, the side brackets may have two screws or only clips. Remove the screws if present, or gently pry off the covers with your spudger.
- Detach the side cap with the JBL logo by releasing the four locking lugs around its edge. This exposes the passive radiator and battery compartment.
Step 3 – Access the battery
- Remove the screws securing the battery cover and lift it off to reveal the battery and its two-pin connector plug.
- In some versions, the plug sits closer to the outer edge of the board; in others, it’s mounted slightly inward.
Step 4 – Disconnect and remove the old battery
- Unplug the white connector by pressing its small side latch and lifting gently – never pull on the wires.
- The battery is held in place with adhesive tape; loosen it carefully using a plastic tool.
- If needed, shift the circuit board slightly to access the connector, but avoid stressing any cables or the thin Bluetooth antenna.
- Take a quick photo of the wiring before removing the battery for easier reassembly.
Step 5 – Install the new CELLONIC battery
- Compare your new battery with the old one to confirm identical size, cable position and plug type.
- Place it neatly in the compartment, reconnect the plug to the board and ensure the cable sits flat and clear of moving parts.
- Replace the cover and tighten the screws.
Step 6 – Reassemble and test
- Reattach the side cap, brackets and fabric cover in reverse order, ensuring all clips and seals are secure.
- Fully charge the Flip 5 before first use to calibrate the new battery, then test playback to confirm normal operation.
