    Expensive, and cannot get it to work. I charge and charge, and then you cannot get it to turn off. Terrible! Don't waste your money

    As far as Bose is concerned I had high expectations. I've had better luck with a JBL mini speaker that I purchased. The sound of the Bose was lacking something I quite can't put my finger on.

    Surprising sound

    This little speaker produces a surprisingly big sound!! This Bose soundlink micro Bluetooth speaker literally fits in the palm of my hand and the size is the only thing small about it. The set up took all of 5 minutes and that’s from syncing the speaker to my iPhone 7 to downloading the Bose connect app. Once connected I played a variety of music and the this little speaker fills a room like you wouldn’t believe. My kids were amazed with how good it sounds. While playing music at high volume I didn’t notice any distortion. I can’t wait to use this speaker on my next ATV ride, I’m sure it will impress my buddies.

    Amazing little rugged speaker

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have had this speaker for a couple of weeks now. In that time, I have taken it to work, taken it golfing and used it out in the yard while working out there. I am impressed with the sound quality, the richness of the sound, the clarity when listening to music as well as using the speakerphone and the over all size of the speaker. I have a loop on my backpack, and the rubber strap fits right in, so I am able to carry the speaker around on my strap with no issues. I have a number of Bose products and I am always impressed with the products they make. I would not hesitate to recommend this to a friend.

    Wanted to use strictly as speaker for cell phones. Difficult to set up for a novice. Could not answer and hang up calls. Sound using cell poor compared to lower cost items. Well made though.

    Small package

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I received the Micro Bluetooth speaker a few weeks ago. I have been contemplating buying a Bose product for some time now. When I initially received I wasn't sure if it would work for me. I was wrong! I absolutely love it. The size is deceiving. I did not think it would sound as good as it did. Even though I know Bose products that I have witnessed have amazing sound, I wasn't sure. It sounds GREAT! I carry it every I go. A case of some sort would have made it even more great but I'm guessing with the rugged feature it is not necessary. I'm very pleased with this small package!!!

    I received this product as a tester and I am providing a review after using it for some times. First impression, it looks cute and nice, easy to hold and setup is easy. Install the Bose app and follow the instructions. I do like the sound quality, it has a good bass, midrange, however, lacking in its treble. It doesn't sound clear when certain music is played. I would recommend this anyone who wants a great portable Bluetooth speaker. The strap at the back is pretty handy. You can strap it to any poles or handles. It is pretty sturdy, doesn't fall off

    Good speaker for its size

    I used this speaker while traveling to Kentucky to hit the bourbon trail. I must say the speaker sound was great as we used it in the apartment we stayed in. I was watching football from my phone and used the speaker to make it sound as if the TV was on while in another room and it worked great. The speaker can be played at a loud volume and still sound clear. There is minimal bass with this speaker, only one this size that i have heard with a good bass is Sony XB 10. The strap on the speaker to hold it to something is nice, but i used it as a holder for the charging cord. That was a very nice feature as i did not have to search in my bag to charge it, the cord was just attached to the speaker by strapping it on. Overall i had a good experience with this speaker and would recommend it to a friend.

    Great sound but unusual setup!

    To begin with, I don't consider a speaker that's 3.25" square micro. It's small but heavy for its' size. It has a stated 6-hour battery life which seems odd considering how heavy it is. There are similarly sized speakers with comparable features that aren't nearly as heavy. It has a rubber strap that's designed to fit around a backpack strap, bike handlebar or a belt. It seems a bit lightweight considering how heavy the speaker is. It's an "intelligent" Bluetooth speaker and requires that an iPhone or Android app be downloaded for use. The app will also update the speaker firmware when installed. I don't know if you can use the speaker out of the box without the app. The instructions specifically instruct you to download the app to set up the speaker. It's a speaker and it's a BOSE...it has good sound considering the size, but like most smaller speakers it seems to be designed to use with a pair! It has a "party mode" where it can connect to other speakers in the room to created a "wider sound".

    AMAZED

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have owned the Bose s1 pro, soundlink revolve plus and micro. The s1 pro was too big and the micro and revolve okay but Lacked bass. This is the overall balance winner. The amount of bass this thing puts out is unimaginable! How Bose? How? Anyway. I moved over to the UE hyperboom and Epicboom for stereo pairing. Great speakers btw. But this thing knocked the epicboom out! Now I question, can you pair two Bose Max together in stereo? Or with a micro or flex? I tried the app Bose connect and bose. Bose can find the max but not the micro and Bose connect app can only do vise versa? No party mode? Will there be an update? Nonetheless beautiful speaker for the value!

    In true Bose fashion, they have made a small portable speaker that does not skimp on sound. The device itself is well made and sturdy. The setup is as easy as you would expect with a bluetooth speaker (not sure why it wanted you to install the Bose Connect app though). And the sound is really very good and on par with other blue tooth speakers in the sub $200 range. I would highly recommend this device if you are looking for a speaker that is easy to take on hikes or bike rides.

    This is the BEST compact bluetooth speaker out in the market PERIOD! Very comparable to the Sol Republic Punk, but instead of a 1/4 threaded hole in the back, the SoundLink Micro has a band that is very useful for mounting. It's very loud for it's size, I have been using this for a week now and get a good 4-5 hours of use then charge it during lunch and back at it again! I have the QC35, which I love, but this badboy is a daily use speaker! Thanks!!!
