    Little speaker that acts like a big one

    This little speaker thinks it’s a big dog. It has fantastic sound that will fill a room and does well in the shower. Be honest, you want this little waterproof guy for the shower. You won’t be disappointed. It even has a built in handle that will fit around a shower rod. It’s perfect!!

    This is my second Bose speaker of this same model. It's not cheap, but the sound, battery life, and the fact that it's waterproof and the materials are of very good quality make up for it. So, I recommend it.

    This speaker can go anywhere; the sound for such a small size is unbelievable:made out of durable silicone; its waterproof, not water resistant; I put it in the bathroom which gets moist; works great; pair it to my cell phone to make & receive calls on speakerphone; up to 6 hours per charge; buy two for stereo; makes great gift for kids rooms. Highly recommend! You’ll love it

    This speaker is small, but packs a punch. It has great sound quality and great bass for its size. It is easy to connect to via Bluetooth and the battery will last all day while playing music. I use it on the golf cart quite frequently and the strap is durable and has a solid weld to whatever you attach it to. Overall this a great speaker for the price and size, would definitely recommend it!

    We have the larger Soundlink Mini II and wanted something to take to the beach that was small and durable and it also needed to sound good which this does. It’s amazing the sound that comes out of it and the battery last a long time. I have not found a better small/portable speaker and may buy some as gifts to give out - that’s how much I like it.

    I have Echo Dots in the house and wanted something similar for outdoors. This is about the same size and the music quality is a bit better so it works fine for that. The battery life, sound quality and volume is what I would expect for a speaker at this price range. The unexpected use is listening to the music on the iPhone when I'm using my pickup that only has a CD player. I'm not just stuck listening to the radio or carrying CDs around! My only concern is that the strap looks a bit fragile but I haven't tried using it so maybe it will be fine.

    *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.

      Thank you for your detailed review of the SoundLink Max speaker! I'm happy that you like the robust design and flexible connectivity options of the speaker.

      If you're finding that the sound doesn't offer enough bass, then aside from adjusting the bass controls on your connected device, try placing the speaker nearer a wall or corner, which will automatically boost the bass response.

      Also, don't forget that our support team will be very happy to help you get the best out of your speaker, if needed: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US.

    Amazing Quality

    I really love this speaker because it's very easy to carry around and it's silicone makes it easy to grip. I'm usually pretty precautious about protecting my gadgets from getting near water but I'm able to rest easier knowing it is waterproof. It stays charged for hours alone and I can listen to my music without any interruptions. Another feature that I love about it is I can connect my Siri to it to control different songs.

    Outstanding range. Solid, crisp bass. I was initially hesitant because I am not a Bose fan but this speaker is amazing and worth every penny. Great highs and clear mids. If you like bass you won't be disappointed. It is much louder than I expected. I actually smiled. Solid build, very portable. My friend "Clavinetjunkie" does a great YouTube review.

    We love it so much so that we have bought around 6-7 of these in last few years - for home use, and for gifts. Sound quality: just amazing for its size. We are a big Bose fan family - the thing we love the most about Bose is the "clarity" of sound. We like bass but we value clarity of sound more and that is where almost all of Bose speakers excel - including this one. Functional: so easy to carry. It has a strap that you can use to attach to your backpack / bike / or whatever. Waterproof feature allows us to use it in / around pool. It has a built-in mic, but we have never used that. We have multiple headsets / ear buds that we use for that purpose. We have used it in sync with other Bose speakers (likes of this, as well as other models such as SoundLink Resolve). Overall we just love this specific speaker and buy it any chance we get to gift it (hey.. get in line)... :-)

    Best portable speaker

    I bought this speaker so I could use it on photo shoots with clients. Music really loosens them up. I was skeptic on buying the speaker but I’m so glad I did. Sounds amazing for for the size plus is water proof and has a strap on the back to lock down on a backpack or a bike. It’s so small yet produces a big sound. I didn’t think we would hear it as I’m shooting out in an open street or field but it’s loud enough to get energy in my clients and I often find them dancing. Which usually it’s the volume that’s gets the energy up from my experience at least. No distortion and lasts a long time; it’s hasn’t died on me yet. I’d say at least 5 hrs a full volume. Would definitely buy again if needed. Oh I’ve had this for about 6 months

    I use this for day hiking and it is perfect for my need. I just clip in on my daypack and loud enough for me that I don’t bother the other hikers. Its rubber body is tough and being waterproofed is just icing in the cake as I don’t anticipate using this near the water. On a low volume and after 2 hours of hiking, I still get 100% battery.

    I have used Bose speakers for 20+ years and I know they are great sounding, but I didn't expect so much bass from this little speaker. I bought it for my daughter, and now I need one. It connected easily to her phone via bluetooth, and is water proof in case she decides to play in the rain.

    Surprisingly good sound for a reasonablly priced compact sized, lightweight, waterproof speaker. Perfect for traveling, in the shower, or at the beach. Also great to be able to pair two speakers together for a stereo effect. Super easy to set-up and use.

    Great speaker! The sound is really good. Easy to add to phone, laptop, or television! The charge last a long time. The only down would be that the speaker is really heavy. But at least it does not fall over!

    This thing is absolutely indestructible. It comes on all of our adventures from kayaks to roadtrips. Unless technology changes, I'll have this until the day I die (I'm in my thirties lol). Once, I accidentally left it dragging through the water for at least 20 minutes & no water damage! 10/10
