“I have the (1st Gen) of the Bose soundlink flex portable bluetooth speaker. What is the difference between mine and the (2nd Gen )?”

1-4 of 4 Answers

• Hi 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.

• I have a 1st Gen Flex and it does allow me to answer phone via the speaker when connected. I noticed with the 2nd Gen on the Bose website, it doesn’t tout the waterproofing like it did when I bought the 1st Gen. (Unless I missed it.) However, I’ve seen reviews say it’s the same material.

• Besides what has been mentioned you CAN connect the Bose Flex 2 to a phone and can accept phone calls as a speaker phone. The Bose Flex 1 cannot do that.
