    Great Bluetooth speaker

    Over the years, I have been a massive fan of Bose and their products. This wireless speaker is one of a kind. After spending the past few weeks with the Bose Color Soundlink, I have been very pleased with the product. This product delivers such crisp and clear sound. The one downside is the bass on the speaker. It is not very strong, and it is noticeably missing. But it does such a spectacular job combing all the ranges of sound. The design of the color soundlink is very upmarket looking. It has a nice sturdy feel to it as well, it feels very sturdy and well made. In addition, the battery life is impressive. I got it to last for a good 12-13 hours before recharging. Operation and setup are very straight forward. I would absolutely recommend this to a family or friend that is looking for a nice Bluetooth speaker. The price is very fair and reasonable. So, if you are looking for a portable, well built, sleek design, and fantastic sounding Bluetooth speaker, the Bose color soundlink is just for you.

    As a lifelong Bose owner, I was less than impressed with the sound of this product. I returned it to receive a refund. Very disappointing.

    Great portable and powerful speaker!

    I've dabbled with a few different Bluetooth speakers that were no name from Amazon. All of them were okay quality, but never provided good quality sound. This little speaker is powerful! It's so small but it provides great quality sound directly from your Bluetooth. I used this at my sons first birthday party and it was loud enough for our entire living room and kitchen. The battery life is incredible as well. One charge lasted all day long. I love how small and portable, yet powerful and quality sounding this speaker is.

    Sounded nice but once the battery depleted it would not take a charge. Went online for a fix but still did not work. Many others had same problem. Returned it to BB for cash and bought an AVI model online.

    The speaker went dead 3 months after the 1 year warranty was up like it was on a timer. Poor tech support and complete lack of empathy for the timing of the failure. Save your money.

    excellent sound quality

    not a bose fan per say, so i researched alternatives...after reading enough reviews...bought soundlink color II. ~surprised & impressed with the sound ~~crisp highs and mids, yet balanced...not shrill or hollow ~~bass was balanced (not overbearing) ~~listen to jazz mostly, found that it somehow compensated for lower volume parts of songs, i didn't have to strain or turn up the volume to hear those parts. as an avid headphone user, i am used to hearing details... ~connected seamlessly with bose connect app on phone, used with pandora ~would recommend

    Awesome Speaker!!

    Got this speaker and its probably the best portable little speaker you can have. The sound quality is excellent, nothing short of the Bose sound quality. I like the fact that you can link this speaker to two (2) Bluetooth devices with ease. Using this speaker outside with friends and guest its nice to have. Also the option to have my Alexa hooked up to her to play music in the living is definitely a plus for this! It makes my in house speakers sound terrible. I would definitely recommend to friends and family if they wanted a small speaker with superb sound!!
