    Pros: Great sound quality, portable, good material, very easy to use. Cons: Bluetooth connection, naturally, can get spotty depending on how far away your paired devices are. Sometimes, but not often, the speaker either doesn't power on or doesn't charge, requiring a quick connection to the charger or a complete reset (holding the power button and options button simultaneously for a while), respectively. The most abysmal thing about this speaker in my experience is the battery life. Drainage can be slowed if you don't regularly use Bluetooth (the speaker supports a 3.5mm jack as an alternative), and if you turn it off immediately before you go idle. This is absolutely not a speaker to leave on without use unless you have it charged at all times, and while that is to be expected with wireless speakers, I would've liked to see a much better battery life. Verdict: Cons may outweigh the pros, but as long as you know what you're getting into, it is definitely a good speaker. I just wish I didn't pay $130 for it when there were many other options.

    This is the best portable bluetooth speaker that I have purchased. The sound is great and the battery lasts quite a long time. It also tells you when the battery is low so you know when to recharge it. I highly recommend this Bose portable bluetooth speaker!

    I love the sound this small speaker gives. It is so easy to operate and easily connected to my phone with WiFi. A tip my daughter gave me is to place the speaker against something to get heavier sound, and it seems to work for me. I'm enjoying it!

    I purchased this item to replace my Skullcandy Pipe speaker set that was destroyed. This unit was pricier but sounds soooo much better. The Bluetooth capabilities allow me to listen to my ipod wirelessly while I shower. It has much more punch and setup was a breeze.

    This was a purchase for my parents. I was looking for a small durable Bluetooth speaker that would be easy for them to carry with them on the go and this definitely fit the bill. I'm not a audiophile, but I felt this product produced great sound for it's size. A+ so far

    I work in a restaurant. This creates an incredibly hostile environment for a speaker. We have tried three other brands of speaker and none held up. This Speaker is Amazing! It is loud, easy to use, and it is well made. I highly recommend it!

    The speaker is loud and of great quality. It has a clear sound and easy to set up on your phone app. it can be connected to Ipod. It comes with a cord to connect to the pod if you still use an Ipod.

    I have one of these already, and got one for my dad for the holidays. They have great sound and a nice bass to it so it doesn't have the tinny sound of cheap speakers. It's really what you would expect from the Bose name. Only issue was some difficulty pairing it with an HTC M10, but I think that was related to the phone not the speaker. Went to a Bose store and they were able to get it working.

    I bought last years model for my son in black and his son liked it so much that I recently bought him one in the red/orange color and he likes it a lot. He found it easy to set up, small enough to be portable, and the great sound quality you'd expect from Bose.

    By far the simplest operational and control speaker you can find on the market with a superb and rich sound. Bose is famous for pure quality sound and this product, does not let fail in that context., You get folded your money's worth.

    Got this for my wife s a birthday presents. She loves it. Had clear rich sound that Bose is known for. Not a bad price at all. I highly recommend this item. Did I mention that it's also waterproof as well. Added bonus. And completely shock proof. Two thumbs up to Bose.

    Who can ever argue that Bose provides the best sound ever. And in such a small package. I bought this speaker when going on a vacation and wanted to have my Spotify music with me. Now I have it at home as well, and doesn't take up a lot of space. Best sound ever.
