Good premium weight to and the texture feels nice
I bought this speaker just after Christmas. I have to for a portable speaker it’s got good sound and a good volume I was impressed by how high the volume is. The adjustability in the app makes it nice so you can hear your favorite sounds. I can’t say I have heard hundreds of speakers but what plans I had for this speaker I believe it’s got to work perfectly

Excellent Sound
I got my Bose Soundlink Max early this month. This speaker was so amazing and I ‘m happy to have one. It’s a small speaker with big and great sound. I like the bass which really sounds like a big speaker.

Epic speaker
Fantastic sound and battery life. Syncing it to my Bose Soundbar and Sub allowed me to easily extend the sound through out my house.

Awesome Speaker!
I love these speakers! The sound, clarity, and bass fills the room! I have two Soundlink Max's and they are so simple to pair. The Bose App has an easy to use equalizer to adjust your sound preference. I have the QuietComfort Ultra headphones and the Bose CineMate 10 Home Theater. In my opinion, nothing beats Bose sound quality! Bose fan for life!

I need an upgrade now
This was purchased for a gift and my partner loves it. It made mine feel as if I need an upgrade on the one I've had for years and still going strong. The sound quality is ace.

Top tier sound
Purchased this shortly before Christmas and Bose had it at my doorstep the day before Christmas Eve.
I own several Bose Bluetooth speakers and the sound and base on this one takes the listening experience to the highest level.
