Small box that gives the Boom!
So small but such a big power! The bass os incredible! Super easy to connect, with a little bit of EQ tweak the sound is more tuned. Im really blown away about the performance of this speaker. It is expensive but in my opinion it is a good investment! The build quality is premium, the sound channels are clear. Above 85% volume the bass is decreased and on max volume there can be some distortion, but even on 75% its sooo loud!Update after 2 week! Sent it back as seems like these models of speaker have a manufacture issue, the battery drains even when the speaker is off. I checked online and saw a lot of people got the same isse and battery replacement or replacement did not fix ghe issue. In a week from 100% went down to 60% without turning it on. Really disappointed as the product itself is amazing!Let me know if you had the same issue? I wonder if anybody got one that works fine

Excellent Quality
I spent a while looking through reviews of comparable speakers and finally bit the bullet on this one.For audio I typically gravitate towards Sony, but was put of by the sheer size of the comparable speakers; for me, the priorities are sound quality (signature), portability (moving from room to room) and durability (something this expensive needs to last!).I am pleased to report this beauty ticks all boxes, and has exceeded expectations.Of most note is the sound signature; I tend to drive the speaker through a portable HIBY DAP player, and the pairing is excellent providing a wonderful layered sound. (Also have the option of driving a wired connection)Also worth noting the Bose app is brilliant - simple and effectiveThis one is an investment, and the build suggests it will stand the test of time.

Usual Bose Quality…As Per 👌🏻
Genuinely brilliant piece of kit. Slightly on the expensive side but soon forgotten once you hear the depth and quality of sound. Perfect for garden parties, kitchen parties, beach days etc…oh and the battery life is amazing ! Easily 20 hours on medium volume. I love my Bose stuff and really impressed with this. Thoroughly recommended 👍🏻

Outstanding
I bought this because the Sonos speaker I bought some time ago disappoints. This is smaller but the sound quality is very much better - as ‘What Hifi?’ Recommends, I’ve turned the bass down a bit (I listen mainly to Classical and Spoken Word). If you are a bass fiend, this won’t disappoint. The sound is full and rich, clear in the treble. The volume is awesome; it fills my high-ceilinged Victorian rooms without trying.About the size and weight of a housebrick, it is solid and waterproof. The handle makes it easily portable. Very easy to pair with ipad.I’m delighted by this. Am tempted to buy another one so I can pair them for stereo.

Another excellent Bose speaker!
I bought this to replace a Bose SoundTouch 30 speaker which was much too large for what I need it for nowadays - mostly as a desktop speaker when working from home.This is a solid, weighty and well made speaker, with a sound that very nearly matches the quality of the SoundTouch speaker - perhaps lacking a little of the warmth, but still very detailed. I mostly listen to "classical" music and BBC Radio 4, and very impressed with the virtual soundstage and clarity. I find the EQ perfect and not too bass heavy, but the EQ option via the app works well if you need it.My only criticism is: there's too much of a leap between the volume increments. They need to be more nuanced. It's often difficult to get it at just the right volume - it's sometimes either too quiet or too loud with no option to go in-between. Hope this is fixed in a future firmware update.

Epic quality speaker from Bose
Beautifully made. Nice simple quality design rather other speakers which look like a tacky disco box.Sound is epic. Huge base. You’ll need to turn it down with the eq in the companion app.App is ok, limited but that’s all you need. Option of being able to pair 2 for even bigger sound but I don’t think you’ll need too.I had a SoundLink mini before which epic but this is 3 times louder.Battery is great and you can even charge your phone from it.Is it worth £400 at release last year? No. But you’ll find them for £300 here on Amazon on prime days and that is a good price for what you’re getting.I also love the fact that it’s waterproof dust proof and impact proof and you link it to your Bose home system if you have one.

Fantastic sound
Absolutely fantastic small speaker with a lot of bass. It is just as described, perfect for the garden which is what we purchased it for. Very easy to set up. From the weight you can tell its great quality & its nice & compact to move it around. Beautiful sound.I would very highly recommend this speaker if you want a small portable speaker with a great sound.

1 MAJOR Flaw
1 MAJOR Flaw: the battery drains pretty fast - even when switched off!Check the forums before buying, because there doesn’t seem to be a fix, and it plagues multiple models in the Soundlink range. I own the Revolve 2 and it’s exactly the same - very frustrating.Of If I leave the speaker switched off - with 100% charge, it will be dead within 3-4 weeks of no use at all.Besides that huge and frankly unforgivable issue, the speaker is simply the best! The sound is so loud and strong. It defies physics. Battery life is amazing - more than 20 hours playing loud. Form factor is also great.Fix the battery drain issue, and it’s the market-leading product (of its class).
