Defective speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I played the speaker out of the box for about 20 minutes. Then put it on charge for 2 hours. One minute of play time and it said that I needed to charge again. I charged it for 3 more hours and it would not turn back on. I’ve had Bose speakers before and this is the first time a speaker would not charge and hold it for only 20 minutes. It’s going back!

I would recommend this to a friendDOES NOT STAY CHARGED!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds great when it's fully charge. But that's where the 3 stars comes in. The battery does not stay charged for more than 30 minutes. Would have returned it; however, my daughter did not tell me about this problem until the after the 30 days were up.

Posted .I'm happy to hear you like the sound of your SoundLink Flex speaker, Cynthia, but sorry to hear of the battery issue! The speaker should remain charged for 12 hours at typical listening volume; since you're not getting this, make sure the battery has been fully charged and the unit is off when not in use. If further help is needed, please contact our support team. Regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support

Outdated Bluetooth Version
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speaker sounds great, as expected from Bose. However, if your device has Bluetooth version 5.0 and later, the speaker will fail to connect. It is unfortunate that Bose lags behind this basic connectivity technology.
