    Good speaker nice clear sound. Don’t like the battery life if you’re lucky 9-10 hours. Get it when it’s on sale. Don’t pay the full price.

    Great sound packed in a small package, which Bose is famous for. My only complaint is the rubberized coating picks up dust, dirt, & hair. Great bluetooth range! I love that it reconnects to my phone when I move back into range.
