They also appreciate its waterproof design and ease of Bluetooth connectivity. However, some customers have reported challenges with charging and pairing the speaker with other devices. Overall, the positive feedback significantly outweighs the negative experiences.

    Great sound as expected from Bose. The waterproof characteristic is very convenient. The size is good too. Battery lasts about 12 hours.

    Bought this as a gift for my husband. He absolutely loves it. It is compact in size but gies really loud, the base is awesome. The clarity of sound is amazing.

    If you lay this thing down or sided against the wall, you can hear extra base compared to standing it up in the middle of a table or something. It has a speaker on the back and I think that’s how you get the extra bassy sound. Granted, the base is not super powerful considering the size of the speaker but for its size it sounds pretty good. It also fits well in my messenger bag so I can take it with me everywhere. And the battery lasts a long time even on standby.

    I bought this speaker for my family on our way to a camping trip where I forgot one of the two other speakers that I already have. I love the sound that it provides and that it connects to more than one device. The battery lasts a good amount of time and with it being waterproof it made our camping trip very enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this speaker for anyone for any application.

    Love it. I had a JBL Charge 3 for 6 years and loved it. Almost went for the Flip 6. So glad I didn't. I didn't care about the voice assistant but actually loved using it. Super durable it fell face down on rocks from about 4 feet and you can't even tell! Bass is excellent and other frequencies sound great as well. Battery life was excellent at moderate volume. Used for camping mainly.

    Such a sleek design and the sound is fantastic! Just replaced my JBL speaker with this and am very happy with it. It's true what others say about the buttons being so faint it's hard to see, but that's not something I feel is a big deal. The battery does drain faster than my JBL speaker did. The sound is very clear and the bass is excellent. Super happy with my selection.

    Very nice speaker. Bought as a gift for my wife, and she uses it daily. Great sound quality. Easy to setup and use. Small enough to carry around or take on the go. It costs a little more than some other options, but we've been very satisfied with it overall.

    This speaker is worth every penny. I enjoy utilizing this speaker on the weekend at my home when friends are visiting. The sound quality is Amazing and the battery life is just as good. The bass from this speaker really truly packs a sound. Don't allow the speaker's small size to fool you.

    These are good, well made speakers. They also sound great! The bluetooth pairing is simple (all you have to do is press Bluetooth button and + button on the 1st one, then press Bluetooth and - on the second one.) They have a rubberized outer coating that seems to protect them from getting bumped around. The bass is excellent. I watch movies and listen to music with them on my Gaming laptop, very satisfied but they are fairly expensive. If you look around you can find for 129.99

    4.5 Stars - It's good but I wish it had an EQ app

    I purchased the Bose SL Flex in Late November 2022. Best Buy had all the Bose Bluetooth speakers lined up, and I was able to compare each speaker side by side. I was really impressed with the sound quality of the Flex. I also own the Bose SoundLink Color II which I purchased back in 2020. When I brought the Flex home and then compared the sound quality of the Flex to the SLCII, there was no comparison. The Flex has much more bass and projects much better and fuller sound than the SoundLink Color II. You can keep going up to the more expensive Bose speakers, but I think the Flex checks all the right boxes - for the price, sound quality and clarity, and much more durable build quality. Plus, I prefer the design of the Flex versus the other Bose cylindrical speakers. I want to give this speaker 4.5 stars. One critical area is that the Bose Flex doesn’t have any type of Equalizer app where you can change/enhance the sound quality with different music. Many other brands are offering an EQ App with many of their Bluetooth Speakers. You could say that Bose Speakers are optimally tuned where you don’t need this feature, but it still would be a great option to have an EQ. One good thing to mention is that I regularly use the Bose App on my iPhone to pair 2 Bose speakers together - the Flex and the SoundLink Color II. Pairing both of these speakers in stereo mode is very easy, and maintaining the stereo mode is overall stable. I listen to a lot of classical, old rock/pop music from decades ago as well as a good amount of R&B, Jazz and Blues. I also own a few other Bluetooth speakers besides the Flex, including the 1st Gen Marshall Emberton, and a few others, so I am very selective about sound. I’d definitely recommend the Flex.

    This product is everything I expect from Bose. The sound quality is incredible, the battery live is amazing. Whether it is 18 holes or an all softball tournament this thing lasts. I couldn't be happier with the product. On top of it all i don't have to worry about it at all, it is very durable and waterproof. i highly recommend this product if you are in the market for a Bluetooth speaker

    I love my new BOSE. It's my second one. I use one for work and one for home. The sound quality is excellent and the battery life seems pretty long. This size is easy to transport room to room. Sometimes I even bike with it. The color options are always great with BOSE, but this one is a "limited edition" color combo so it matches my Virginia Tech hats :)

    I love everything BOSE. This little speaker does not disappoint. Sound quality is excellent of course. Nice weight to it. I purchased a matching silicon case for its protection. Its been dropped a few times and still performs as expected. It has great range very impressive.

    Amazing speaker. Easy to hang in places and doesn’t take up much space. The sound output is high quality and it talks to you telling you who’s connected and the battery percentage. Well worth it

    So far I've had this item for almost two months and I'm very satisfied with it. I mostly listen to rock music with it and on occasion punk, never tried other genres yet but I am sure it would do fine. In terms of volume its not too bass heavy but I personally don't need that and the quality of audio is very good. This item is a huge step up over the Waterbox portable speaker that I had in terms of quality and speaking of which the battery life on it meets my needs, I never timed it but I always get good amount of use out of it before having to charge, your mileage my vary through your own person use ect . To sum it all up I highly recommend this purchase if you're willing to spend a bit more to give yourself something that isn't too bass heavy and has a good amount of battery life along with good audio in my opinion.

    I love Bose, for the price it's great. I still get better sound quality and volume out of my Bose SLI II but this model is more mobile. I clip it on a carabineer and hang it from my waist or mirror daily. Battery is good, it lasts a full shift and drive time to and from, charged every night.
