Great Speaker, But Needs a Big Red Toggle Switch
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wonderful sound but somewhat hard to turn on and off due to its heavy rubber cladding. Switch often does not engage, and battery status is often garbled. Disappointing that this small glitch makes a return likely.

Posted .I'm glad you like the sound performance of your SoundLink Flex 2nd Gen speaker! The speaker's physical controls are designed to be easy to operate; however, if you're finding the power button difficult to operate, pushing down with a fingernail or thumbnail should help. As for the "garbled" battery status, we'd like to know more about what exactly is happening there, so please do get in touch: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US.

I would recommend this to a friendDecent but needs a tweeter!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It would have been a perfect speaker with a tweeter. While the sound stage is wide it is not well defined. The bass over powers any highs. It's all mids and bass. I initially love the speaker until I compared it to the beats pill which was actually a real shocker since I am not an Apple fan at all! But Apple definitely nailed this product. I was also extremely disappointed in the Sony Ult Field One. The bass (which I absolutely love on Sony's headphones) sounds horrible choppy and The passive radiators sound like they are going to pop in not a good way. So close Bose.

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish this speaker came with a charger and not just a cable. Was a little short on base sound. Somewhat overpriced but the sales discount made it acceptable Would not buy without this discount.

Posted .Thank you for choosing Bose and sharing your feedback on the SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen), John. We understand how important included accessories, bass performance, and we’re glad the sales discount made your purchase worthwhile and overall value are to your experience.
The charging brick isn’t included as part of our commitment to reducing environmental impact most customers already have compatible chargers, which helps minimize waste. The great news is that your SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) includes adjustable Bass, Treble, Boost, and Reducer settings, so you can fine-tune the sound to your liking.
To use the Equalizer:
In the Bose app, select your product then tap on the EQ button in the lower-left corner; or within the Sound section of the Settings menu, select Equalizer. Bass, mid, and treble level presets can be chosen buttons below. Graphic EQ changes can be made by pressing and sliding the white circle up or down. To return to the default EQ curve, tap Reset in the upper-right corner.
If you’d like further assistance or recommendations to enhance bass or explore other options, please contact us through this link: https://bose.life/49SSe5s
We’d love to help make your experience even better.

Great sounding and durable
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Flex is the best BT speaker in its class. The sound is very crisp and detailed with a slight bump in bass and clear highs and vocals when using the adjustable app eq settings. I found the default Bose setting a bit flat. It gets very loud only showing slight eq rollback on the low end frequencies at near max volume. This isn’t an audiophile sounding speaker but the sound quality is outstanding especially at this price. I have owned many and this is the best for my ears anyway. I imagine if you pair a second one the sound would be amazing. The physical controls are easy to use and understand. I also have a Bose portable home speaker which had held up many years so I expect the same from this one. It's rugged and great that it can be clipped to something for travel. As far as charging and runtime through 3 charges it has matched and slightly exceeded the Bose listed calculations. It can lay flat or upright. I think it sounds more full upright but it's nice to have options. There are so many portable speakers now it really comes down to sound and value and I can't imagine getting better than this at a sub $200 price point.

Great sound and quality!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Bose Soundlink Flex 2 packs big sound in a small package. Very solidly built and ready for just about anything. With its IP67 rating you get dust proof and waterproof protection. Also, it floats in case you happen to drop it in water! With its tough silicone body you also get protection from drops. I love the sound of this speaker. Everything from jazz to hard rock sounds so good, and this speaker produces some impressive bass for its size. I’ve used plenty of other similar sized speakers and I must say the Soundlink Flex 2 is great. Amazing battery life and quality you would expect from Bose. Another thing like to mention is the Bose app. It works great and it was super easy to get the Soundlink 2 up and running. With just about everything being app-connected these days, it’s nice having a quality app to work with. There are a ton of speakers out there to choose from. If you get the chance, I recommend going to your local Best Buy and giving this speaker a listen. You definitely won’t be disappointed with this one. I definitely recommend this speaker!!

Posted .Hi there, thanks so much for your feedback! We're glad you're enjoying the SoundLink Flex Portable Speaker (2nd Gen). It offers up to 12 hours of battery life at moderate volumes, though this may be reduced when used at maximum volume.
Regarding volume in wide open areas, you're absolutely right. While the speaker delivers impressive sound for its size, larger spaces may require a bigger speaker for optimal coverage. That said, when compared to other speakers of similar size, the SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) truly stands out in performance.
If you're having trouble with short battery life on your SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen), here’s a quick troubleshooting guide that might help: http://bose.life/3JAF0iW
