Review: Durable, Great Sound Quality - Worth It - Fantastic
speaker—well‑built, durable, and quick to charge. The size is
perfect for pool days, parties, or tossing in a bag for travel. I
bring it on trips for hotel‑room music, and around the house it
never loses connection, even when I’m in another room or out in
the backyard. It’s waterproof, so shower use is fair game. It
charges via USB‑C, and that same port can top off your phone in a
pinch. There’s also an AUX input if you ever need it. Multiple
devices can connect via Bluetooth (though that can get chaotic),
and it can pair with other Bose speakers. Once you’ve paired your
device the first time, it reconnects automatically every time you
power it on. Sound Quality: The sound is excellent. You can tweak
the EQ in the app, the bass is strong and clean, and this thing
gets loud without losing clarity. Treble stays crisp, and overall
it’s one of the best‑sounding speakers in its size class. Is it
worth the price? I’d say yes. Plenty of speakers check the same
boxes, but if you want a bougie speaker that performs - this one
is for you.
Review: It’s Bose - I am an electronic and gadget freak. I like
to try new products and I am always excited when something comes
out that gets a lot of buzz. Bose has been around a long time and
either like them or you don’t. I always questioned the price to
value ratio of there products. One thing I can say everything
they make is built to last and it’s always quality. Quality
materials and a good customer experience. I owned Bose
acoustimass back in the day and upgraded to a full system with
301’s and I loved that system. Great full sounds, clarity and
bass. I got away from Bose as I got older because the prices were
just too extreme for my budget. I have purchased many Bluetooth
speakers from JBL, Soundcore, and Harmon Kardon. They all bring
something great to the table. Now I saw the new Bose Soundlink
max for $100 off during the holidays and I made the purchase. I
love this speaker. It’s my go to when I want something to carry
around while doing work around the house or just sitting down
with a cocktail. This little speaker sounds full and defies its
size. Bluetooth connectivity is quick and responsive. I got the
black and I bought a third party case to protect it when I’m
outside and it looks great. Battery life around 40% volume I got
just past the 20 hour mark as advertised. Kick up the volume
you’ll obviously get less. If you get down to 20% battery it
takes about 4 hours to charge. The buttons are soft and tactile.
You have your power button, multi function button you can
program, Bluetooth button, volume up and down and track forward
and back/pause. Minimalist lighting which I like. When I use this
in the bedroom it doesn’t light up the room. I have yet to try
snapdragon sound as I don’t use android. The sound I get through
Apple Music lossless sounds great. Good clarity size defying bass
and great mids. Full sounding and it makes me smile every time I
turn this thing on. There’s an app with eq and everything you
need to tailor your sound. Bose should take the route Soundcore
does and have more eq settings but what’s here works. I love this
speaker and it’s my go to amongst all my toys. At $299 highly
recommended at $399 still worth it but it’s Bose it’s a luxury
purchase. Totally worth it!! Tried so many Bluetooth speakers and
this is the best all rounder for music lovers. If you’re on the
fence.. go for it! There are louder speakers out there but they
don’t have the sound quality this one has.
