Customer Ratings & Reviews

Excellent sound! Excellent size! Very portable, extremely pleased with purchase.

This speaker is excellent if you want a portable speaker, able to play stereo, customizable in the app to suit any music genre, able to play all the high res. Codecs, connects automatically to you Regine or pc when started up, and so much more. Bose did not skimp on this speaker. If you enjoy playing music, sitting at your desk doing work or homework, etc . This is it for you. It can play very loud for its size. My main reason for this purchase is because I am a well informed consumer and I wanted something that had a good subwoofer feel to it, even on low volumes. And it delivers on every star I’ve given this Bluetooth speaker. Bose FTW.

Great sound quality, pretty easy connectivity, packs a punch for its size! Bought this for summer events by the water. Tough to beat BOSE sound quality. Wish it came w/ a case, but found one online.

I bought this to replace my Bose Mini SoundLink 1. That speaker served me for 11 years! College parties, beach trips, kayaking, camping, work, grilling, sad boy hours. You name it, that speaker played its little heart out. It became an icon in the friend group. While many have had 4-6 speakers over the years, I've had just the one. I unfortunately dunked it in water while on the river. The battery was beginning to fail anyway, but that deemed to be too much for my Mini. It still played for a few hours after that, but its final song was Great Expectations by Day Wave on 07/04/2024. It played all the way through and turned off for its last time. I put that speaker though things it was never built to do, and it just kept going. I bought the Max because it IS built to withstand my lifestyle, and Bose as a portable speaker has won me over. I will forever buy Bose, and this speaker.. I mean wow! What a sound! The battery life is incredible, the tone and bass is amazing! truly one of the best sounding Bluetooth speakers I've heard for its size. To be fair it's a little too soon to tell, but if this is anything like my Mini SoundLink 1, (and this can withstand the river) I will be playing music out of it for many years to come, and I believe this too will become the next icon amongst friends and family. I have already enjoyed many hours from the new Bose Max.

This is my 2nd Soundlink Max I've purchased. One i use on my ATV and the other was a gift for my father. We both love them and have found superior quality of sound with Bose. If you want loud quality sound with extremely long battery life at max volume, this is what you want!

This is a excellent sounding, solid built Bluetooth speaker and well worth the money paid for it and was made better when it was 100 dollars off its usual price. Excellent bass, midrange and treble and connectivity to device is quick and easy. App helps in tailoring sound. Enjoy and turn it up loud!

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.

Perfect replacement for the aging stereo system on my sailboat. Can bring up top, listen down below, carry it to the beach, you name it. It gets very loud if you want it to do so. Does take a while to completely charge, and I don't think the battery lasts as long as advertised, but it is a solid piece of kit, and hope it gives me years of use.

Amazing sound and connectivity. Replaced our old portable and this supercedes the previous unit in sound quality and battery life!

Great sound from a not too small, not too big speaker. Links very simple to our devices. Sturdy design. Buttons are clear and easy to read. The app os easy to use when adjusting the equalizer. The handle is strong and durable.

Incredible sound out of this speaker. Just buy it! I love good sound without the bulk of a big speaker. If you're not looking, you would have no idea that something that size could crank out that kind of sound. It's amazing!!

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!

I’m a Bose fan. I own all kind of Bose portable speakers. This is amazing. Sound is clear and crispy. It would be amazing if it was smart portable speaker. My Bose smart portable speaker didn’t sound like this one and the battery last only 4 hours.

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.

My favorite portable speaker great bass clear sound.

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 quality sound! Convenient for traveling. Able to link other bose speakers for full surround sound! Awesome!
