Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is probably my favorite speaker I've ever purchased from Bose. The highs are crisp and the lows are thunderous. This speaker honestly takes every party to the next level. I mostly use it as background music at family parties but its really convenient having this speaker get as loud as it does. Super versatile and I really LOVEE the top handle. It is made of such great quality and it feels so comfortable to carry this speaker around with the top handle. Battery life is also pretty amazing. Used it at a family party for over 5 hours and only got it down to 70%.

Really great quality for how small it is. And portable

The sound of this portable Bose speaker will blow you away. Deep bass and crispy treble across all genres of music. For all you audiophiles out there, this is your speaker! Can easily take it on the go, holds a charge for a very long time.

Lets get the elephant in the room out of the way. This BT speaker is stupid expensive. But…. If you can afford it, it sounds amazing given its size. Its has a smaller footprint than the JBL Xtreme and it blows the JBL out of the water (as it should for $150 price premium). I’ve seen some Amazon reviews saying bass response is disappointing. That’s ridiculous. Bass is nice and tight. The entire soundstage is linear. It not bright and its not boomy. Yes, some bass is lost if listening outside. But thats the case with just about every BT speaker except JBL boombox. Hoepfully with time some deals will come out. I’d say its a deal at $325 and a bargain if it ever falls to $299.

Bose SoundLink Max in Blue Dusk Bose has a new set of portable bluetooth speakers that it has named the SoundLink Max line There are 2 models available in blue or black colors. I am discussing the Dusk Blue model here but both have identical specifications Approximate sizing is 10.4 inches wide, 6.4 inches high and approximately 4.1 inches deep. The speakers have Bluetooth 5.3 The internal battery, per the Bose specifications on the website, should last up to 20 hours of usage on a charge at moderate volume levels. The specs say a battery charge lasts 3 hours at full volume. I did not test this water proof feature, but the speakers are also IP67 waterproof and dust-resistant. I don't normally mix water and electronics. Of good convenience is another set of features: The speaker has both an analog 3.5mm auxiliary input jack and a USB-C port; the USB-C is to both to charge the speaker and charge external devices such as phones, using the internal speaker battery, when circumstances require it. Of course, doing so will reduce the length the speaker will play music. It works to charge my phone. The sound quality is very robust, rich and filled with both strong bass and bright treble depending on how the Bose app is adjusted for a user’s preference. Let me state that it has quite some strong volume that will cause some of my less exuberant family members to loudly implore me to turn down the volume. It is very good! Bose has apps available for their Bose headphones and Bose portable speakers that likely are mostly used with mobile devices such as phones, tablets, Chromebooks, and other bluetooth portable music devices. Using that app allows setting the music tone quality (EQ equalizer settings). Really cool. The app is also compatible with Bose SimpleSync to enable a multi room audio environment. I did not test that since this is my only Bose Bluetooth speaker (for now). There is a feature that powers off the speaker if no sound is transmitted via bluetooth and no control buttons are used for 20 minutes. That time length is adjustable to hours or turned off via the app. A voice prompt announces the battery level every time the power is turned on, or when being used, if the power button is pushed and held. It also announces the device it is connected to via bluetooth. It can connect to 2 bluetooth sources at once and mine does announce my Samsung Android phone and my Gigabyte Windows PC when powered up. BTW: I have grown very much accustomed to using this with my laptop since the sound it produces is FAR superior to my internal tiny speakers as well as other computer speakers. Recommended with enthusiasm!

Rock solid sound. I love this Bluetooth speaker. Have great range and connectivity. Sound is very pleasing. I compared this with Sony and Sonos. Sound wise I like this one better. May be the personal preference but with Bose you can never go wrong. Super portable and feels very good in hand.

I was torn when i was in the market for a party speaker which one i should get. The Bose SoundLink Max or the JBLPartybox 110. I listeend to both speakers in Best Buy and decided the Bose sounded a lot better. Its smaller and more portable, but still packs a punch. The battery life lasts for an extended period of time and its water and dirt proof where i feel like i can take it anywhere. Woild 100 percent recommend this speaker to anyone.

Beautiful sound. Elegant speaker. We take this everywhere.

I have been wanting to purchase this speaker but hesitant at regular price. At the black Friday deal finally grabbed one. Product is solid and seems exceptionally well made. Set up and app are very easy to use. Adjusted eq to my preference and great sound followed. Bass is exceptional for a small speaker. You get what you pay for with this product.Excellent sound in a weatherproof package. Plays loud and clear. Looking forward to summer pool parties jamming with this speaker.

I own many Bose speakers and this portable speaker is awesome. For the size, the sound quality is clear, loud, battery life is good and indicator tells you the battery life. Would recommend purchasing a carrying case for easy travel. We took it on our Hawaii trip, excellent purchase, do recommend.

An excellent price break and good value. Deals like this is what keeps Best Buy on top and ahead of all the other electronics and appliance retailers. I, for one, do certainly appreciate the goods, staff, and the customer satisfaction that Best Buy promotes. The quality of Bose products, especially construction and sound reproduction, is unsurpassed and phenomenal. Ruggedness, simplicity, and ease of operation are all equally unmatched. Tho a bit more expensive than other makes and models, this product is well worth the investment!!!

I bought this for my husband as an anniversary gift. He is a speaker snob and is always looking for the next best thing. He LOVES this speaker. The sound is spectacular and the volume is more than loud enough for our back patio or working in the yard.

Love the color. The sound is impeccable. Everything about the design of this is fantastic and worth every penny. Battery life is great.

This speaker is the best speaker. Is compatible and very loud I love the texture and it has a very good batt life

Its heavy but sounds great and the battery life is pretty remarkable. The detachable handle was nice on our canoe trip to secure it to the canoe. Would recommend this purchase if you want quality sound and don't mind the heft, its a lunker fo sure.

I have had nunerous brands and this speaker is by far the best. Has decent bass for its size, loud and clear. This speaker is built very well, can link another speaker to it . I am fixing to buy another one. I have a Bose Revolve, purchased in 2016 which now goes to my kids to use, its a great speaker also and turned me into a huge Bose fan.

I tried many speakers before landing on this one and I was not disappointed! I absolutely love the Bose SoundLink Max. The sound is powerful, clear, and the bass hits perfectly without being overwhelming. It fills any space—indoors or outdoors—and the battery easily lasts all day. It feels premium, rugged, and worth every penny. This is hands down one of the best portable speakers I’ve owned.

Best sound and Bass. Overall battery life is amazing. Volume at half way and used it for 5hr still 3/4 full..only thing missing is a charger in it so you can charge your phone n be sure please with it.

I love my booooom box, have a nice weigh but good battery

Doesn’t seem like this Bluetooth speaker would produce such a rich, powerful sound due to its small footprint but that’s exactly what it does!! Will fill a BIG room with immersible music that last for hours! This thing can handle any type of celebration you throw at it! It’s a Bose, what else would we expect!!!
