    Warranty Is Horrible! Read B4 you buy

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Got a Bose Sound link speaker for Xmas. Works fine. Come July mine would not hold a charge. I'm thinking well this is Bose! The best in the industry so no problems. WRONG!!!!! Called Bose tech support and first thing was I had to pay $9 to ship it back. I argued with them with no luck. Then the real kicker. It's going to take 3 WEEKS to repair!!!! Who does that anymore! Most manufacturers ship you a replacement immediately! You may think Bose sells the best speakers and they do. But their Warranty is the WORSE I have ever seen.

    The speaker itself is super easy to connect to your phone or laptop. The sound itself is clear and crisp. Volume is pretty impressive for the size of the speaker.

    Was expecting a much crisper sound from a Bose speaker. Unfortunately it sounds a little off. The bass is not to clear. From reading all of the reviews I was expecting an amazing speaker. It's not horrible but was just expecting more. It's light, portable and easy to setup.

    Poor Music Quality: Terrible Distortion

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    1. Due of the wavering strength of the wifi connection where ever I may go, (even on the LG4 network/using bluetooth to stream music from my phone), there are adverse affects in the quality of the music, i.e. the tempo will fluctuate and the voices will distort. And not just slightly. It is VERY NOTICEABLE. 2. If you are using your phone to stream the music and you get a phone call, everyone else whom may have been enjoying the music now has to deal with the music being interrupted while you engage in a conversation. 3. If you use your phone for music streaming, and also like to use your phone for playing video games or surfing the web at the same time, all of the little sound effects and background music will also filter through to the Bose speaker and sometimes cause it to stop all together, or freeze your phone up.

      Hello Gina.Thank you for the review. We are sorry to hear about the trouble you are having with the SoundLink Color and would like to help. The music should definitely not be changing tempo or distorting, and the phone should not be freezing from using the SoundLink Color speaker. As for the audio from games or calls going through the speaker, there may be a setting that can be changed in the phone that can prevent that depending on the phone. Please call us at 800-380-4831. We are here to help M-F 9am to 9pm and Saturday 9am to 7pm EST. Bose

    Switched to Beats

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Worked great the first time I used it. I read all the reviews on the Best Buy website and thought this was going to be a terrific purchase. The speaker had plenty of power, good range and quality sound. Charged it at the end of the first nights use and two days later...nothing, no power at all. Thought it may have been a fluke so I cracked a window and listened while it was plugged in and let it charge overnight. 2 days later and again...NOTHING. Wouldn't hold a charge, so I really got to use it for what it was intended for only one time. Started reading independent reviews and apparently this problem isn't all that uncommon for the speaker, which I was not pleased to find out. I wasn't going to go through that again, so I switched to Beats Pill + and I love it. Bose may have lost a long time customer for a very long time if this is the kind of product they want to put on shelves.

    Waste of Money

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I think this speaker has worked twice in all the times I've tried it. It doesn't turn on and off, but needs to be plugged in/recharged or unplugged. The buttons don't seem to activate anything and don't glow the color they're supposed to. My biggest regret is not trying it right away so that I could have returned it. A big waste of money.

      Hello there. We are sorry to hear about the trouble you are having with your SoundLink Color speaker. You should definitely be able to use it unplugged and the battery should last up to 8 hours at typical listening volume. There should also be response from the buttons. One thing that can help is to update the software which is available here: http://updates.bose.com/SoundLinkColor

      If that does not work, please contact us at 800-380-4831. We are here to help Monday through Friday 8:30am to 9pm EST and Saturday 9am to 7pm EST. We want to help you get your system working so you can enjoy it. Bose
