Customer Ratings & Reviews

I own two of these, and I have tried almost every Bluetooth out there. I just keep coming back to the Bose. Fills any room it is in with ease and just sounds fantastic. There is some magic dust those Bose guys must sprinkle on these because they are just a step above. Highly recommended!

Great quality sound & product. Easy to use. Quick charge & has a long battery life. Best Buy is my first place of choice for electronics.

This is the sixth Sonos product that I've purchased over the years. I now have Sonos speakers on all three levels of my home. This is my first Sonos:Play1, purchased for a large basement workroom. It is the smallest of the Sonos speakers I own, but it fills the space with great sound.

The sound quality is exactly what I expected from a Bose speaker. It lives up to the Bose name. I read a review that suggested this speaker be put near a wall to get richer base quality and they were right. Sounds just as good in an open room or space. The overall sound is sufficient for a speaker this size. Battery can go almost 3 days without charging with moderate streaming. Overall I’d give this speaker an 8 out of 10. The app is just ok and lacks equalizer control which I think would make this speaker perfect if you could adjust different elements of the sound to your personal taste.

Utilize in my den for perfect music delivery via my Echo dot. Portable , so easily moved to other rooms and outside. Long lasting battery life. Quality performance always.

I like it but I don't like it. At medium volume it does a decent job. Its enjoyable. It folds bass at high volume and distorts everything with a hiss at low volume. Its just mediocre outside of its sweet spot and since I mainly use it at very low volume I'm disappointed with it. Its decent for having background music going at the right volume. It can be used while charging and has a 3.5 jack. Two good features. I'm just disappointed because Bose is supposed to be the king of sound and this sounds terrible at low volume. I'm wondering if something is wrong with mine.

Bose generally outperforms other small speakers in terms of sound quality, and this little speaker is no exception. Seems to be pretty rugged (and maybe a little heavy as a result), but I think this is the best value among the small speakers (including other smallish Bose speakers).

This speaker was easy to set up and use. For the size of the speaker it puts out great sound.

I turned in a higher end Bose for this one and couldn't be happier. This thing sounds good. The battery lasts a long time and its the easiest speaker to operate. Nicely done Bose.

Excellent sound and base. Easy connection trough Bluetooth. Water resistant and wipeable if it gets dirty. Not heavy and easy to carry.

This speaker is very nice. It sounds great and is easy to use with my phone. It also charges easily and stays charged for a long time. I use it at home and work. Great item!

Bought this speaker for my daughter. She loves it. Water proof is a huge plus as she can use it by the pool. Sound is loud and clear. Fills her bedroom. Portable and good battery life.

I love her. She is bright and cheerful and easy to use and plays way louder than I need and is crisp at low volumes.

I love this speaker. I bought it to use and believe me it has gotten used in some way every day. It has a clear sound with impressive bass for a small speaker. The Bose app for my iPhone works well and makes it easy to connect and play. I held out waiting for the price to return to the $79.99 it was on sale for the first time i started shopping for a small but nice sounding Bluetooth speaker but had to pay the current price of over a hundred bucks. Worth it to have it to use each day and enjoy!

The battery/charging life alone on this speaker is worth the purchase alone. Sound is impeccable and easily transported. Very satisfied with this bluetooth speaker!!

I love this little Bluetooth speaker, but from a company like Bose, of course it's going to be amazing! The sound quality is crisp and clear, it was easy to set up and it has a decent range... I'm able to leave my phone charged in my house and listen to my tunes on my deck, approximately 25-30 feet apart. The device charges quickly and again, has amazing sound! I'd been debating serenading my ex, Lloyd from Say Anything style, but done particularly want a restraining order... but I feel like this would do well for parties, studying outside this spring and even expressing your love for someone while standing in their front yard. Great device!

Rich Bose sound and quality to listen to when I take a shower. The only thing that would make this perfect for me is a strap to hook this onto something.

Really enjoy the sound from this speaker. Bose has outdid themselves this time around. Easy set-up, lightweight and stylish. What more can one ask?

We love this speaker and the sound is good. I don't see any issue with the water resistant vs water proof because this speaker sets where it can't be knocked in the pool. If it did by accident grab it and set it out of the pool. Bose does not disappoint with the big sound from this little speaker. The connection with the app is so easy. It does not have sound from the back just the front but that is fine with us. I only want it where I can hear it but don't think this speaker won't put out a big sound because it will. The sound is loud enough for an outdoor party.

Superb sound quality, not tinny at all, great bass. Battery charge lasts long, easy blutooth connectivity, decent blutooth range as well. Accompanying bose app is helpful too
