    My friend who has this let me borrow it for a few days and it was love at first sight. The portability, the SOUND QUALITY, the size, the price, and the Bose app. I’ve recommended this to over a handful of friends who had no choice but to purchase because I would not sit up about how this speaker is everything and more than what anyone could need at a price everyone can afford.

    Good sound and easy to carry. I particularly like the strap on the back that allows you to affix the speaker to your bike handles. So far the battery life is good. I like to listen to audio books and this speaker lasted 8 hours on one charge.

    Small but does the job. I love me a speaker with good base. I mostly listen to house music/afro house/tech so it sounds amazing in the bathroom! Also if you want something more portable for the beach, this works great too

    This Bose speaker has great sound but that is no surprise. I have used Bose for years and the first portable speaker that I bought from Bose lasted around twenty yes, 20 years! It is a bit heavier than I was thinking it would be but it is a solidly made product. Great battery life too.

    Excellent design; clear sound and easy to use. Easy to set up and use. Holds a charge better than other speakers I have owned. Mainly wanted an auxiliary speaker that I could use that would not disturb others.

    Compact Powerhouse, my new favorite speaker

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I recently purchased the Bose Soundlink Max speaker, and I must say, it has exceeded my expectations in every way. Despite its compact size, the sound quality is impressively powerful. The clarity is remarkable, making it perfect for any genre of music. The bass remains deep and rich, even at low volumes, which is ideal for quiet listening sessions. Portability is another major plus. Its small size makes it easy to carry around the house, so you can enjoy great sound in any room. The Bluetooth connection is stable and quick to set up, with no perceptible lag in sound, ensuring a seamless listening experience. Additionally, the accompanying app is very functional. It allows for easy adjustments in the EQ, so you can tailor the sound to your preference with minimal hassle. Overall, the Bose Soundlink Max is a fantastic speaker that delivers excellent sound quality and convenience. Highly recommended!

    Packs a punch for such a little guy, battery will last for 5 hours but extraordinary sound quality. Super happy for just spending a hundred bucks........ dropped it twice and still holds up, get the warranty anyway, what's another 25. I do have to reconnect blue tooth every time I walk away and come back, all in all......... it was a good buy

    Better than "Epic"

    Heard it in the store and thought it was a display hoax. Left the store purchasing an "Epic" speaker from another "Mega" brand, which I've purchased from before, and love. Needless to say, I returned it to the store the next day, spent the additional $100 for the Bose Max and I'm still blown away with the sound quality for such a small speaker. The app has some connection issues with my Android phone, but I'm confident since it's so new that those bugs will get worked out. Would be nice if the app gave a power on/off option, but again, I feel that'll be in future.

    This speaker has good sound, notably strong bass from a small unit. It also holds a charge well. Not as efficient as some other Bluetooth speakers, requires more volume.

    Fantastic Waterproof BT Speaker

    I bought this for my wife's birthday as a shower speaker. She's loving it. I use it as well and even while washing the cars. The sound quality is excellent with some very solid bass for such a small form factor, which I've come to expect from Bose. The exterior coating feels solid and we've had some excellent battery life. Pros: Size Quality (construction and sound) Easy-to-use (app) Cons: Cost (I did get mine on sale) I can't voice control Alexa A couple of suggestions: Add an auto-off feature if there's nothing playing for 15+ minutes, we've left it on more than once. The current strap is great for what it's designed for, but maybe add some clip-on points for a shoulder strap or similar. You should be able to add more than 2 concurrent devices. Add the ability to prioritize connected devices in the app. Add 2-way voice control ability.

    I've purchase 3 of these-- one for myself and 2 as gifts. The sound is great and it's so small that I take it with me when I travel. (Back in the days when we could travel.) Now that I'm home all the time, I find myself using it to listen to podcasts while doing housework. Sound is good, the charging is easy and fast, and it's a great speaker.

    Full sound in a variety of settings and awesome battery life. This unit has worked great in hotel rooms when travelling, and did a great job at the beach. I like how light weight it is also. Easy to carry to the beach and back, easy to fit ina backpack.

    Bought the Butter Bar max. Great bass and Bose sound from such a small light speaker. Comes with a handle too. Great gift idea! Can't go wrong!
