BOSE is a great brand, good products and good app. Thank you

This speaker has really clear sound, strong bass, and gets loud without distortion, and the battery lasts a long time even with daily use. I’ve had it for a while now and it’s been reliable, easy to carry, and definitely worth the money.

Best sound!!! My husband does construction and speakers get really dirty. It is so easy to clean and it looks like brand new after wiping it off with a damp cloth. It connects fast, the color is beautiful. It is easy to carry. Very stylish!!! It was a great purchase. My husbands does not leave the house without it. It is amazing how a such small thing can sound so loud and clear.

Best little speaker you can get.It’s small and compact easily transportable the bass on it gives my movies /music that extra kick .Since it’s encased with the silicon it’s durable and water resistant.Connects via Bluetooth instantly.I also connect it to my laptop which has a crappy speaker and now the audio is clear and vibrant.Charges fast and has a strap to attach it to something if you choose to carry it around.

The sound quality is exceptional with clear audio and strong bass. Battery life is impressive and easily lasts through long listening sessions. Pairing was quick and easy right out of the box. The build quality feels solid and durable, and the carrying handle is comfortable and ergonomic, making it easy to take on the go. The color looks great as well. Highly recommend this speaker.

Great sound, great size. Love the handle color and volume. Mids are crisp and clear, bass was great after I bumped it up in the app. Tough and great for the pool and beach

We bought this to use on our bike commute. Rubber strap with clasp is easy to put on and take off bike handlebars, and stays in place even on rough pavement/trails. Controls are also very user-friendly while biking / in motion. Produces very clear sound even at top value. Plenty loud- you can feel the bass vibrations though the handlebar. But doesn't turn up so loud to prevent you (or your kids) from still monitoring the surrounding traffic noise for safety. No known damage to the speaker so far from using it while riding in the rain. Connects to bluetooth on my iPhone quickly and consistently (not all bluetooth speakers are good at connecting to the input device). Battery life seems pretty robust. Haven't used it for a phone call yet, so can't say if the mic is any good. I try to avoid talking on the phone while biking, since that's much more distracting than just listening to music.

Was looking for a new speaker with a longer charge life that was water proof/resistant so I can listen to music while showering and getting ready. Have a Bose Sound Link Mini that I love but got tired of carrying from one level of the house to another. Did some searching and found this little guy. Was worried about the sound quality because it's so small but went to BB and they had one on display and the sound was amazing. It's very loud and the sound quality is as good as any other Bose speaker. They were also on sale, so it was meant to be. There's a secure strap on the back so you can take it anywhere (bike, back pack, etc...) and I can hang it from a hook in the shower. It's on the far side from the shower head and high up so it doesn't get submerged but so far so good from the moisture. I believe it is actually submersible but probably not going to test that on purpose. But it's nice to know it's probably protected from water. It's small, sleek, light weight, super easy to pair with the app and has a great battery life and there's no better sound quality out there.

The sound quality exceeded my expectations. I was impressed that I could hear every note of each song clearly as this little speaker’s sound effortlessly filled the room and beyond. It was easy to use of course, equipped with a few controls on the device to power on/off, adjust volume, play/pause and connect to Bluetooth - it has all the function I need. My fiancé loves the size and how conveniently it travels with us, awesome for on the go and because it’s waterproof it can go anywhere. The small size is definitely something she would feel more comfortable toting than a larger speaker. If she likes it, it’s a win!

I have purchased several portable speakers over the years and Bose has always been my preferred manufacturer. This little speaker has superb sound, its lightweight and waterproof. The battery keeps a good charge and is ready to go when I am. It’s syncs with ease and even has a voice notification as to which device you’re connected to. I would highly recommend this item for the music connoisseur.

Love the BOSE portable bluetooth speaker. The battery lasts a long time after it has been charged. It is light weight too and easy to move around to various locations. Great sound!

Great sounds! deep base but expensive!! compared it to my soundcore motion boom plus and tbh its actually louder than this soundlink max!.. yes go on youtube and see reviews but all are done with in 2 feet distance. i placed both speakers against the wall in my garage and walked away about 20 ft. had the volume set the same on both and the montion boom plus was way louder!. will i keep the Bose yes.. only because i was able to price match and had some rearwards points. if it wasn't for the savings i would of returned this speaker the next day and stick with my soundcore speaker. buy it and try the distance review..

I'm not a hardcore audiophile by any stretch of the imagination but I do appreciate having music while I work and play. I picked this speaker up because it is relatively light and thought it would be a good addition to my backpacking and camping kit. Right out of the gate I took it on a 3 day backpacking trip. Having the ability to enjoy our down time listening to a great selection of music really added to the trip. The sound from this little speaker is amazing given it's size and weight. When not out and about in the outdoors I use it on the patio, by the fire pit, in my shop, and in the office during the day. Bose rates the battery life at 6 hours but in my experience it lasts much longer at moderate volume. Well worth the money.

This is my first Bose purchase ever! After contemplating for 5 years on a portable speaker, I chose to go with a Bose based on my mother’s recommendation and a friend who has a Bose surround sound system for his TV. They have spoken good things about Bose. I chose this one also because it was on sale during Black Friday. When I connected my phone to this thing, I was completely shocked and amazed at the sound quality. Its pretty loud too…. in my opinion. I am someone who likes a lot of base in some of my music and for a portable speaker, this was a pleasing a sound. The base is pretty good. I do recommend. Try it when it goes on sale again if you dont want to pay full price.

Great sound for the size. I connect them with another one or with a bigger bose speaker. Makes for great sound and spread for a bigger area. Especially use this at the beach. Just attach to an umbrella or anything that works. I use this riding my bike. Just put it on the handle bars. Not only great sound for the size but tue battery lasts a long time. The fact that its water proof and dust proof is amazing. I use at the beach, it gets sand on it and just knock it off. I even forgot it outside in the rain overnight once and it was perfectly fine. Stong durable speaker made for life and adventures!

I was honestly surprised when I heard this speaker the first time around. Sure, it may just be one speaker but the passive radiators in this little guy make the bass so much boomier and punchier than you'd expect for a speaker this small. Now, don't get it twisted, this isn't gonna beat the bass of even something like a JBL Flip 5 that has a larger driver, but if you've got $100 and you need a speaker for a small room or for moving on the go, it doesn't get much better than this. The built in strap makes it perfect for attaching to bikes and other things and it holds on pretty well. It's pretty waterproof but I'd be careful around the charging port since it doesn't have a cover and is just exposed 24/7 but beyond that, it's a solid little speaker.

I've had this for over a year and love love love it.. the sound is epic coming out of this tiny device.. one time my home theater system stopped working so I used this and couldn't tell the difference! No problems connecting to the bose app for battery intel... the battery life after a year hasn't phased at all! If I were you and thinking if getting this ..well don't hesitate its totally worth the buy.... its great for road trips, artist adventures to take with you when you want to zen out an draw and listen to music, perfect to listen to the game when out walking, even great for using while you are cooking.. you name it.. Im thinking of getting a larger one for my home theater.. but would recommend this over everything else!

Pleased with this purchase. I own several portable Roland sound systems with great sound, but they are heavy and take up a lot of space. This Bose Bluetooth speaker is small, lightweight, rechargeable, and sounds great. I chose to use the Bose over the July 4th weekend because it is fully capable without the bulk and weight of my other sound systems. I may buy another to have stereo. Worth the investment, would buy again.

This speaker is loud. It doesn’t have its own volume, but it has volume buttons you can use on the speaker. The bass on the speaker is amazing! It works for everything. I’m going to buy a second one so that I can sync them up and have more sound. It’s extremely durable, easy to use, light weight, and it even hangs on stuff. I’ve used it while fishing, driving, watching shows on my laptop, and working on my vehicle. They also have a great app you can use as a remote, although it’s not beneficial if you’re playing stuff off your phone. I hesitated at buying it because it’s so small, but it’s definitely worth it!
