    Quality and Portability

    I held off in buying this Bose speaker due to its price and decided to buy something cheaper but good quality and better battery life (Sony Xb-12) so I have something I can take with me anywhere I go. It went on sale on Black Friday and I did not hesitate to make the purchase and I was not disappointed. The sound quality, build, material used in this little speaker is what you would expect from Bose. Battery life @ 6 hours is tolerable As I’ve never really used any of my speakers All day so it didn’t really bother me. If you are looking for a really good speaker that packs a punch even better than other bigger Bluetooth speaker out there, get this one.

    The Best and Great for Travel

    This to me is the best portable speaker I’ve come across (and I’ve had lots). The sound is fantastic (why wouldn’t it be, it’s a Bose) and the size for portability is perfect. Brought it with me to Europe last year and used it in hotel rooms. Was so happy with it and really like the soft but tough rubber casing (and the orange color) and find the black rubber band on back very covenient to hang it up on to things. Highly recommend for the authentic and fantastic Bose sound, quality and portability. The Bose brand goes way back and has always been a well known high quality audio brand and this small speaker is no exception.

    I thought this would be a great first Bose item to purchase and was impressed by the clarity of the sound but that was quickly replaced by frustration at how difficult the item is to pair and how annoying it is to power off. I literally had to hold the power button down for 10-15 seconds or more to power it off. I had thought of gifting this item to some family members but decided against it as I was sure it would give them arthritis powering it on and off.

    This speaker is amazing! I bought the first one for my husband for Christmas! I then purchased one for my daughter for her birthday which she loves! I purchased a third one for my nephew last month. He uses it everywhere he goes on his bicycle in his backpack! Best gift ever.

    I am a long time Bose fan. This is such a great buy. I actually bought it for my son as a Xmas present. Loved it so much, I purchased one for myself. The bass is one of the best I’ve heard. Although I have a Bose docker in my kitchen I use this one a lot. I carry it from the bath room to the bedroom daily. Love my Bose!!!

    Sounds great! Super portable. Great for the shower or the pool since it is waterproof. Straps nicely to a bike as well. A bit expensive, but the quality justifies the price.
