This rating allows the speaker to handle water exposure, including being in the shower.

A:AnswerThank you for trusting Bose! The Bose SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) is not designed to function as a surround sound speaker, although it can be synced with Bose soundbars for synchronized audio playback. However, it’s important to note that the SoundLink Flex is not specifically designed to serve as a surround speaker.
For a true surround sound experience, we recommend considering the Bose Surround Speakers or the Bose Surround Speakers 700, which are designed to deliver immersive surround sound when paired with compatible Bose soundbars.

A:AnswerThe Bose SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) Portable Bluetooth Speaker is not suitable for use in a 190‑degree sauna. While it’s rugged and waterproof with an IP67 rating, it isn’t designed to withstand extreme heat. High temperatures can damage the battery and internal components, posing safety risks. It’s best used in normal ambient conditions like outdoors, at the pool, or on the go, but not in saunas or other high‑heat environments.

A:AnswerYes, the SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) works perfectly with the 2024 iPad Pro. It connects via Bluetooth just like any other compatible device, so you can enjoy Bose sound for music, videos, and calls without any issues.
A:AnswerHi there, thanks so much for reaching out! We're glad you're exploring the features of the SoundLink Flex Portable Speaker (2nd Gen). At this time, the USB Type-C port is dedicated solely to charging and doesn’t support audio playback, but we truly appreciate your curiosity and suggestion. We'll definitely pass it along for future consideration!
A:AnswerGreat question! Both the SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) and the older SoundLink Mini deliver excellent Bose sound, but they’re designed with different priorities in mind. The Flex offers a slightly broader soundstage and stronger bass response, making it ideal for outdoor use, while the SoundLink Mini is known for its rich, detailed mids and stereo speakers, perfect for indoor listening. The Flex also has an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance, giving it superior durability compared to the Mini, which isn’t water-resistant. In terms of battery life, the Flex provides up to 12 hours of playtime versus about 7 hours on the Mini. If you’re looking for a rugged speaker for adventures, the Flex is a great choice, while the Mini remains a fantastic option for those who prefer a compact, premium-feel speaker for home use.
A:AnswerHi, absolutely! The SoundLink Flex 2nd Gen is built tough with an IP67 rating, so it’s waterproof and dustproof perfect for handling steam, splashes, and even a quick dunk. So yes, it’s safe to use in the shower! Just try to keep it out of direct, running water for long periods and you’re good to go.

A:AnswerBose does not offer official mounting brackets for the SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen). However, the speaker is designed with a utility loop that makes it easy to hang or attach using straps or hooks.
For mounting in your camper, you might consider third-party solutions that are compatible with the speaker’s size and weight. Just make sure they provide a secure fit and won’t damage the speaker.
A:AnswerIt will connect with a laptop as I use mine because the laptop speakers produce very low quality of sound. Haven't try with zoom meetings. If it connects to a laptop, I don't know why it would not continue with zoom meetings.
A:AnswerI charge my SoundLink overnight. Unplug in the morning without any issues. I believe it has a built-in auto-off feature. Can't think that Bose would not have that protection considering the quality of Bose.
