About this item
Press play and go further with the Bose SoundLink Flex Portable Speaker (2nd Gen). Surprisingly big, bold sound in a super-packable size — perfect for sharing tunes and good times anywhere on the planet. With high-fidelity audio and deep bass, the speaker is loud enough to fill the space wherever you are on your journey. And it’s built durable, too, so you can go wherever the beat takes you.
Sound that takes you places.
Hit the road in hi-fi with the surprisingly powerful performance of SoundLink Flex. It’s clear, balanced, high-fidelity audio and deep bass you wouldn’t expect from a speaker this easy to take with you. Want higher highs or lower lows? Tweak the sound with Adjustable EQ in the Bose app.
Perfectly portable, with battery life to match.
Pack your playlist — no problem. The speaker is small enough to fit in your hand, throw in your pack, or clip to the outside with the durable utility loop. And you can focus on the fun with up to 12 hours of battery life* — enough for even the most adventurous of tastes.
Toss it. Drop it. It’s all good.
Rated IP67, SoundLink Flex is designed to take on all your adventures. It’s dust and waterproof, and it floats — so a quick dip in the pool won’t sink your sound. The speaker’s durable, silicone-wrapped body also withstands drops, crushing, shocks, and rust.
Stay connected with advanced Bluetooth 5.3.
Advanced Bluetooth 5.3 offers a strong, continuous connection to your device from up to 30 feet away. And multi-point connections keep the speaker paired to multiple devices at once, making it easy to share DJ duties with a friend.
Stereo on the go.
When you need more sound, press the shortcut button on the speaker and on another SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) or SoundLink Max Portable Speaker to pair the two (sold separately). Once linked, you can choose from Stereo Mode to separate left and right channels or press the shortcut button again to switch to Party Mode for even bigger, bolder sound.
Plays from any position.
Stand it up, lay it back, hang it upside down — SoundLink Flex will always give you the best sound. Bose PositionIQ technology senses the speaker’s orientation and automatically adjusts its performance accordingly.
Stay in touch when you head out.
Make and take calls when you’re on the go with the speaker’s built-in microphone. Or use it to access your device’s native voice assistant when your phone is out of reach.

- A: AnswerHi Barry - here are some key differences. The 2nd Gen has an Equalizer in the app, whereas the 1st Gen does not. The 2nd Gen also has a Shortcut button, which can be customized via the app for accessing e.g. Speaker Link, your voice assistant or Spotify Tap. The 1st Gen doesn't have a Shortcut button.
