Customer Ratings & Reviews

The power that this masterpiece brings for its size and easy portability is exceptional. I am blown away by the clarity delivered while still providing an exceptional base experience. I did get it on sale for $300 USD which made it a steal of a deal.

Great sound easy to connect fast charging good quality build

GREAT QUALITY SOUND AND EASY CONNECTION, PERFECT SIZE FOR TRAVELING

This has huge bass, especially for a Bose product. I was totally blown away when I turned this little bad boy up. I love that it is waterproof and it definitely feels rugged. I will not be hesitant to take this biking or out in the woods and I am already turning this on when I wake up in the morning and just bringing into the shower so I don't have to stop listening to my audiobook or music. This speaker is the ultimate multi-functioning sound machine. It's small enough to take anywhere and produces better and bigger sound than much larger and more expensive speakers. Bose really put a lot of thought into this one and produced another winner!

Decided to upgrade from the flex. The sound stage is much wider. It is stereo but the drivers are close so it’s not like having 2 speakers. But makes movies sound great. Used it at a pool party with about 30 people and it filled the space and lasted about 4 to 5 hours at almost full blast. Minimal distortion and the bass was impressive for an outdoor space. As with all these little speakers, the sound deeper if placed up against a wall or corner where the sound can quell. It also sounds deep and really great at low volumes in smaller rooms.

Best for speakers for home, small gatherings, iwith a strong base for listening and easy to handle.

My new portable Bose speaker has great sound and good volume. I highly recommend it to play your blue tooth music.

Purchased as a gift for my middle-school son who wanted something portable with better sound quality than a loud cell-phone. This definitely fits the bill, as the sound quality is excellent and what I would expect from a Bose product. Connecting to a smartphone or other Bluetooth device was quick and easy and my child was able to get the speaker up and running and listen to music without opening the manual. Although we have not tested its waterproofing feature, the black rubber shell seems thick, durable and likely to survive being dropped or banged around. The controls are minimal and self-explanatory, and the unit can be recharged with common USB cabling (which was included with the product). I am not sure how reliable the rudimentary clasping mechanism on the strap will be after some use and wear and tear but time will tell. The price seems a little high for what you get (hence the four-star rating) but I presume the "Bose" branding increases the price.

My fave speaker I've ever owned. I love the design and color. The bass is phenomenal! It has a very long battery life and you can charge your phone on it! It's definitely worth the cost. Highly recommend!

This this is amazing!!!!! I had lost this outside in flood season for 2 months. Then I found it on my uncovered patio! I seriously thought it was a goner. It worked perfectly! There were two different floods in the 2 months.

I couldn’t be more impressed with the Bose SoundLink Max. The sound quality is absolutely phenomenal – rich bass, clear mids, and crisp highs, even at higher volumes. It fills the room (or backyard) effortlessly, making it perfect for gatherings or just enjoying music at home. The build feels premium and solid, with a sleek matte black finish that looks great anywhere. Battery life is excellent, easily lasting all day on a single charge. Bluetooth connection is quick and stable. Bose nailed it with this speaker – worth every penny!

Sounds great and connects blue tooth easily Great construction

I expected this speaker to be good because Bose is known for a quality product but I didn't think it would be this good. The compact design, downsizing subwoofer, crisp sound, and battery life are great. The charge time was a little lackluster when first charging. Sound wise I tested it initially using When the lever breaks by Led Zeppelin (it's a great go to for testing any sound product honestly) and I was surprised at how clear the mids and highs were and how rich the bass was. It's not as warm as a larger Bose or Sonos speaker but for a budget speaker....really good. I bought it on sale at 79.99 from the original 99 but I'd recommend this to anyone any day.

This is an amazing bose speaker max i owned i still have the other speaker soundlink but this one is more bass more clarity and loud. Battery life is good also. U cant beat the Bose sound!!

Purchase the speaker for my bike. Easy to set up as it has Bluetooth and is waterproof. The music is very loud and clear. However, the backstrap tendency will fall off in time. Since then, Bose have come up with an updated strap.

Very clean crisp sound. I bought the floor model and it plays wonderfully. Easy to connect, large range on Bluetooth.

The SoundLink Max delivers excellent sound quality (which BOSE is known for!) The speaker measures in at 10.5” x 5” x 4” which makes it very portable. The first thing I noticed was the building quality. It has a little heft, which I love, and the rope handle is a nice touch. The sound quality is amazing, which is nice is such a small package. Too many times, I have used bluetooth portable speakers, and the sound quality negates portability. The bass was not too much, and the mids sounded great. I am a big classical fan, and this speaker manages to perform well in the genre. For battery, we are looking at 20 hours at moderate volume. I was able to use the device for around 5 hours, low volume, and the device was still at 100%, which was crazy. I believe if you keep the device at a decent to low volume, you could possibly see better battery life in terms of hours. There is also a USB-C port you can use to charge a phone, which is a neat feature to have. You can never have enough ways to charge handy. Overall, this is a well-designed, excellent performing Bluetooth speak. This will be a daily driver for me and my family as the portablity and sound, along with excellent battery life make this a must have for us.

Bose is the brand of my car speakers and since I’m very pleased with the sound, I bought this portable speaker for my dad, and it’s great quality, perfect size and very easy to use for him.
