Customer Ratings & Reviews

Sure, I wouldn't be using this to DJ at a party or anything but this little speaker has plenty of power to use in the shower (it is highly water resistant) and on the worksite (I can hear it over most of my power tools). The sound is clear and has a decent amount of bass. Sounds better than anything else that I have tried at it's size.

Lives up to the Bose reputation. The sound profile and quality is as expected for the price. We bought this on sale primarily to use in the bathroom, and it fits our needs from waterproofing to durability. Also love the color.

I am quite pleased with it; the battery life is excellent. Furthermore, it appears to be quite durable. However, the only aspect that I find less than ideal is the low volume of the talkback system.

Awesome sound! Incredible BASS!! Mids and highs are crisp and clear. Love the Bose sound signature. Great battery life.

So simple. Such great sound as always with Bose. Very portable.

Easy to setup. Highly portable and durable. Tried in shower and works fine. The latch to secure the speaker to objects is not so great, but gets the job done. Battery life is good. Sound quality is similar to Soundlink Color. Overall an excellent purchase. But the price is quite high when compared with other products.

Bose is just a superior sound quality then other companies. This thing is the size of breakfast sandwich from a fast food restaurant and the bass/sound is unbelievable. With it being water proof makes it easy just in case of spills or accidents in open bodies of water. I’ve been buying Bose since 18 and now 36, it never disappoints.

This speaker is the perfect size with the highest quality sound of any Bluetooth speaker I’ve heard. It is obviously built to last.

*Review of the Bose SoundLink Max** I bought the Bose SoundLink Max hoping to enhance my listening experience, especially given its high price and promised specifications. However, after several weeks of use, I feel disappointed by several aspects that do not justify the cost. **Pros:** 1. **Design:** The speaker has an elegant and compact design that integrates well into any space. The build quality seems robust. 2. **Connectivity:** It offers multiple connectivity options, including Bluetooth, aux, and USB, making it easy to use with various devices. **Cons:** 1. **Sound quality:** Despite the specifications, the sound quality is not that impressive. The bass is weak, and the highs tend to distort at high volumes. This is not what I expected from a speaker in this price range. 2. **Volume:** The maximum volume is lower than expected. In large or noisy environments, it fails to fill the space with enough sound. **Conclusion:** In summary, the Bose SoundLink Max does not meet expectations for its high price. Although it has an attractive design and good connectivity options, the sound quality and insufficient volume make it not worth recommending. For this price, I expected much more. --- I hope this version is useful for expressing your experience with the speaker.

I love the portability of this and the small size as I can take it with me when I travel. Battery life is excellent and sound is great. Definitely glad I purchased this.

Sound quality is phenomenal on this thing. Portability is a bonus.

Awesome device. Love that it’s waterproof and durable. The sound is awsome . And u don’t even have to have your phone near it . I had my phone in the house and I was outside with the speaker and it was still working

Like having the 80’s boombox with a smaller and lighter footprint and better sound. This little thing packs a punch. Can replace a lot of subpar speakers you might have. Bose audio is second to none. This thing is also water resistant so if it rains, no problem, keep on jamming. Just wish Bose worked with HomeKit.

A deceptivley loud speaker for it's size; I purchased this as an open box item; and it works as advertised. Bose sound in a bery small and portable package; and great battery life (advertised 6- I have seen that plus or minus 20 minutes). Worth the cost retail! The only reason I rated at 4 stars is the charger is USB Micro- and the strap that is built in does not hold as strong as I would like.

Great sound and long lasting charge waterproof and drop resistance

great little product. Weighs little, but sounds big. Connects easily after installing Bose app. Would be nice to have a little kickstand in the back to support it.

enjoy this portable Bluetooth speaker immensely. Pro: -small, compact -great sound for size, major improvement to laptop sound (at least the ones i have) -works great and easy with iPhones (much clearer and louder sound than phone) -easy to use buttons -easy to recharge (USB) -rugged Con: none at this time

This device is great. The sound quality is excellent, and pairing it with my iPhone was fast and "idiot proof." It can be synced with a second speaker for full stereo sound (separate L & R channels). I have an old vehicle with only an AM radio, and this sits perfectly on the dashboard. The windshield directly reflects the sound back into the car. The speaker is water proof (at least Bose sez it is) and the rubberized coating keeps it from sliding around on the dash. The only thing I find fault with is the belt strap on the back. It's a narrow, stretchy, rubbery band with a tiny hook at the end. It doesn't seem like it would be dependably secure, especially for energetic activities. But since it's unlikely I'll every use that feature, it's of no consequence. I already own Bose products (like their noise-cancelling, quiet comfort headphones), which is why I purchased this compact unit over other brands.

I didn't think it would be loud due to it size but This small speaker is powerful and perfect for me. Im disabled and can't lift much but this is just right in weight

If you’re planning to buy this little speaker but it now. It’s very compact and light, perfect to go anywhere. The sounds are super fantastic. The bass, mid range and treble are unbelievable for its size - sound like it’s a big Bluetooth speaker.
