Customer Ratings & Reviews

This was my second Bose purchase. I have several sets of Bose headphones and some of their surround sound speakers. I am Happy with all of them.

Does the job, however it adds to the size and weight of the unit. I would have thought that Bose would have put more thought into the looks of the cover.... it turns my cool little speaker into a cheap, ugly looking thing. Not for me....

I bought this as a gift for my daughter. She loves the way it looks in her room. The price was right, and definitely worth a happy daughter.

This is a great Bluetooth wireless speaker. I use it all the time. Ive even hooked it up to my tv to watch movies with verses buying a sound bar or system.

Wanted to give a personal touch and that it would "decorate" the room that had red accents, This made it look much better in the set up.

I bought one of these for my daughter last year and she spoke so highly of it that I knew my son would want one when he got his new bose.

Just brought this home earlier today after eyeing it for many weeks now. I own a Bose Sounddock 10, and I LOVE it. I use it quite a bit, but I wanted something that is more portable, yet packs nearly the same punch. I've tried all the bluetooth speakers on display at BB, and although there were a few mentionables, I kept coming back to the Bose Soundlink Mini. It seems a little pricey for many, but it's worth the money. My reward zone discount points helped. No regrets here. One of the best purchase I've done so far! Here are what I really liked about Bose's smallest bluetooth speaker: 1. Portability: Being able to take it anywhere was the biggest factor for me. I can take it anywhere in the house, outdoors, or when traveling. Now I can listen to my tunes while washing the car! It really is small enough to carry in a purse or small bag. 2. Ease of use: Pairing up was simple and quick and I didn't even read the instructions. It can pair up to 6 devices (tablets, laptops, smart phone, mp3, etc.). 3. Power: I realize that it will never compare to a Bose wave system or theater system. It is what it is, and what it is is Bose ingenuity! Don't let the size fool you. It is very unassuming at first, but I was blown away by the deep bass and clear crispness of sound that came out of this little speaker. Even at high volumes, sound distortions are not an issue. It's much at home in a big living room as it is in a dorm room. I strongly believe that it even beat the other bigger bluetooth systems. 4. Design: It is quite simple and sleek. I love the aluminum casing which matched my Macbook Pro and gave it the look of a higher end product. For it's size, it's hefty so there's really no worry about it vibrating off the base or table. Loving the fact that there are two slots for the charger to connect to (base dock or Mini itself). A jack is present for connecting non-bluetooth devices with an audio cable. Probably the only thing that I would love for Bose to improve on for this system is to add a remote control feature. Being a personal device, I realize that the Soundlink Mini is meant to be kept at close range. For those times, when I'm at home and the Soundlink Mini and iPhone are not quite at reach, a remote would come in handy. I haven't tested the battery life yet, but I think 7 hours is plenty for me as I don't expect to use it for that length of time every time. I have read reviews online and watched reviews on YouTube and one issue mentioned was the lack of sound customizability. It is true that the Mini excelled in the lower range with deep impactful bass, and that others wished more treble was available at the upper range. I thought that it was a moot issue. There's not very many product this size on the market with a strong bass factor, and in my opinion it's the bass that's priority. Customizing the equalizer setting on my iPhone allowed me to have more treble and less bass if I desired (Settings----Music---Equalizer). You just have to look at the source and not at the Soundlink Mini. Another feature that others wish it had is the microphone and speaker phone feature. I tried calling my iPhone to see what the system will do and it volumed down the music when a phone call is coming in which alerted me to a call. It did not pick up the ring tone. These are not deal breakers for me as I would hate to lose out on such an awesome product. I would also like to mention that soft skin cases are available in green, blue, and solid orange for those times when you want a different look. The case also offer protection against the occasional bumps. I got the green, and it makes the Mini looks so sleek. For those looking for the perfect travel companion to their mp3 device or smart phone, I would highly recommend the Soundlink Mini. Hearing is definitely believing when it comes to Bose, and the Mini is simply amazing for it's size. It is quite frankly, unbelievable!

Almost four years old and still works like new. While BT speakers have improved over the years this one is still a strong contender.

This is a must have for your Bose mini speaker to keep it safe and free from scratches.

Bought this as gift. My niece loved the color and added protection.

The clear part was very yellow like. It's hard rubber

Great sporty look, very durable and sturdy. Protects my Bose Soundlink mini II in any occasion.

Very difficult to turn AUX on and off. This difficulty for me greatly detracts from usefulness of product. I am hard of hearing and need similar product to enhance TV sound. The Soundlink and IPod doc work much easier. Unable to recommend for similar use. Consider adding remote for easier use.

Wanted this item for a long time, finally got it as a birthday gift. Well worth the wait! Awesome value

I bought this so I could have great sounding music wherever I was. It works great. I have used for quiet office music to a get together for friends.

It's nice to have the different colors because I'm not the only one with this speaker at work. It's also easy to keep the speaker clean.

Nice sounds but could not compare To Harmon kardon portable speaker

Was ok wish someone could have informed me more on the products.

The cover serves the purpose to protect the speaker but it has gone from clear to yellowish. It has been inside 99% of the time so it's not due to sun exposure.
