    Perfect size speaker. Wanted something for when we go to the beach that sounded good, and didn't want to lug anything big and heavy. This puts out an amazing bit of sound for it's size. Really like it, and the app has an EQ which allows you to control the base, mid and treble. It was on sale too, so very happy with the price.

    I travel a lot for work and entertain guests at home so I wanted something that fits in my laptop bag but also had enough power and clarity for occasional backyard barbecues. It's impressively rich and clear even at low volumes. I wish the microphone was a bit clearer but it gets the job done for Zoom calls. The app provides firmware updates and equalization. I've tried Soundcore, Sony, and JBL. JBL is very close but Bose are a bit better at putting big clean sound into small packages.

    Love the Bose products. We had a first gen that lasted a decade or more but the battery finally failed. Great sound and portability.

    I have absolutely no complaints. You can adjust the speaker equalizer within the app. The song quality is nice. It plays loud an overall good sound for such a little speaker. I also like how it tells you how much battery life is left every time you turn it on I would definitely recommend this product to a friend or family member.

    I bight this speaker for my wife's birthday. I loved the color a d the sound is impeccable. Has quite a bit of bass for such a small speaker. Only reason i didnt give it a 5 is my wife uses it for work. She listens to music her entire shift for 8 hours and will die if she doesn't charge it on her lunch break. She's had cheaper speakers we bought from Amazon that could last up to 2 days with no charge..

    My thoughts on Bose SoundLink portable speaker

    Impressively clear, balanced sound — For its size, this speaker delivers clean, detailed audio that handles vocals, acoustic tracks, and everyday listening very well. Midrange and treble are crisp and lifelike, giving music a natural, pleasant feel. This makes it a great all-around portable speaker for home use, travel, or casual listening. Strong portability & build quality — It’s compact, lightweight, and easy to carry around (ideal for small apartments, travel, or shifting between rooms). Yet it still feels solid and well-built, with a design that balances sleekness and durability. Reliable battery and wireless convenience — Built-in Bluetooth connectivity makes pairing with phones, laptops, or tablets simple, and the rechargeable battery ensures you can use it unplugged for extended sessions without worrying about cables. Great value for daily use — For people who want a no-frills, dependable speaker that sounds far better than most basic Bluetooth speakers, this model hits the sweet spot: quality sound, ease of use, and portability at a reasonable trade-off compared to full home audio setups.

    I purchased the speaker for my 18 year-old daughter when she’s in the bathroom getting her life together she loves the color of the speaker. She loves the base of the speaker and she loves the volume of the speaker. Great speaker.

    This market space has become very competitive in recent years. I own several BT speakers from both Bose and Soundcore. Bose is usually higher priced than most … and waiting to buy Bose on sale is highly recommended. This particular speaker was bought on sale for $99 and I am very pleased with it. It sounds very good (not great) and is on par with the Soundcore Motion 3 in terms of overall sound quality. Even at the sale price of $99, the Motion 3 is still cheaper and sounds as good. So while I recommend this Bose speaker (and have no complaints about it), the value proposition is still questionable. Having said this, the looks and overall appearance of the Bose speaker is better than the Motion 3 - at least in my opinion. You can not go wrong with either speaker - as I am very pleased with both.

    Wonderful little portable speaker with fantastic sound. After having the Bose SoundLink micro speaker for years, i wanted to upgrade, and i am very i did. Was able to use a carabiner to clip the speaker to my backpack on bike rides, or just use at the beach or at home.

    This has a seamless connection to my iPhone and the sound it generates is surprisingly good for the size of the device. It is a very high-quality speaker at a very reasonable price.
