    I like the speaker, however, I didn't like that it came with minimal instructions, which made the set-up take longer than usual.

    I’m getting about 6 hrs per charge while I wish it would get a couple more. The black top makes it hard to see the control buttons.

    I’ve been a fun of Bose products for years and this product satisfied all my expectations. It’s easy to connect it to my iPhone or to use it as an external tv speaker.

    I bought this speaker instead of the Sonos Move and it was decent. It’s easy to love around but the sound left me feeling kinda flat. The eq was pretty minimal and at high volumes, became extremely distorted. I did perform a software up and found the same behavior pattern. For the price, the sound should be much clearer and less muddled.

      Hello!

      It's great to hear how much you are enjoying the sound of your new speakers!

      When setting up the speaker, the Bose Music app will walk you through the process, but if you do need an extra hand we have a handy guide on our website here: https://bit.ly/3cPJZYC.

      I hope this helps!
