   Lets just hypothetically say that I bought this as a gift in December 2017 for an ungrateful person. In September 2018 this same ungrateful person pissed me off, so naturally I decided to destroy this bose speaker. I ran water over it but i noticed the water rolling off. I then submerged it in water and watched until little bubbles formed. I removed it and placed it back. The next day, this same ungrateful person is blasting perfect sound quality music from this damn speaker… al hypothetically of courseNeedless to say Bose has gained a loyal customer in myself

   I’m flight attendant and have literally turned my car back around to go back home and get it when I forgot it at home.It gives amazing sound that fills a car or room beautifully.Everybody always looks at it…what is that?It sounds great! Oooh Bose.Listening to NPR podcasts or rocking to my afro beats music library the sound quality is excellent. I can’t rave enough about it.Just get one and forget those other small cheap speakers that you won’t be able to stand after using this.

   After going into a Bose store while on vacation, I came across this portable bluetooth speaker. It has amazing sound quality for its size and is very durable. I bring this to the pool, on my patio, in the driveway, literally anywhere I go. It’s made of a rubberized material and very compact and travel-sized. This is a water resistant speaker, NOT water proof so make sure you don’t submerge it under water or in anything else. The sound quality is loud, crisp, and clear. Connects very easily to not only my bluetooth phone but also my laptop. The battery lasts around 6-8 hours and charges pretty quickly.

   bought this Bluetooth sound system for my husband because he is a long haul truck driver out 18 days at a time and watches shows and movies on his tablet while in his truck. After 11 years of trying many different sound systems they were always too soft. I tried this and he is in love with it, it is as though he is in the movie theater. It is so awsome that I went out and got one for the house, and yes I love to crank up the sound to the fullest so I drown out any other noises. It is portable so I can take it anywhere I want, including the yard, my car, the beach. I can also play it in one room and have it loud and clear in another room. It might not be a surround sound but it is just as great and is worth every penny! It would be a great present for anyone any age.

   TBH initially I wasn’t pleased with the sound of it at all! I’ve gotten so used to listening to music underneath the bump and vibration of (Beats) bass that I didn’t recognize real quality any more. I didn’t pay attention to the fact that I can clearly hear every instrument (individually) as well as every lyric spoke within the song playing. I didn’t notice the awesomeness of this tiny little box until I was in a completely separate room away from it, yet I heard every sound described above in perfectly pristine quality as if the music was live & followed me into the next room. Suddenly I remembered the quality sound of the Bose products my parents owned. The beauty of clear, quality sound wrapping around you.The overall appearance of the speaker speaks to it not being a cheap reproduction. The texture is great to the touch. It feels very durable and is comfortable on the hands, easy to grip & carry.While the colors available offer up great images of summers at the beach or by the pool, I opted for black and will settle for relaxing, music filled baths on horribly cold winter nights😀…I live in a very cold climate!The battery life is awesome so far…I haven’t charged it since the first day I received it, Yet I’ve listened to it somewhat continuously.Setting it up with the App was very easy and user friendly. The voice prompts were a great help, but aren’t necessary as the setup is very easy.

   I’ve seen some negative annoying reviews with one, two, three, n maybe four stars that their speaker came wrong or saying that “It’s a waste of money DONT buy it” n other person says “I’m returning it I’m disappointed” or other dumb reason “it didn’t receive no wall charger”, cmon just use ur damn cube or wall charger that u already have, I don’t care if it didn’t come with it, I still use it anyway, like omg so ridiculous like they’re sounds like Karens lol anyway that doesn’t makes sense to me about their device, like what do u mean by that? Is not a wasted money, or I don’t see nothing wrong making u to return it, like what the heck, it’s worth it lol, as I saw the reviews n I can see there’s nothing wrong with it which it’s kinda too much panicking n ridiculous about the device doesn’t work, it sounds horrible n etc, IT DOES WORK, ITS SOUNDS GREAT & THE COLOR LOOKS GREAT TO ME lol n I have no problem with it, it works just fine, the color looks the same as shown, it works great n there’s no problem at this time, I love the Bluetooth speaker, especially it sounds great with the great sound of bass, the best Bose speakers out there! I always wanted to have these at my house but hopefully I can try to get more of these, so far I have two products from Bose, one is Bose Companion 2 Series III Multimedia Speakers that is hooked up to the family’s TV at the living room area n it sounds great as always we’re use it the speaker to play music at the entertainment center n the speakers sounds the best just like my family’s SoundLink Color II speaker! I love it! The connectivity works great n it can be far up to like 20ft or so n the battery last long, I used it the entire day n it didn’t died on me just my other speakers I have here but they’re still working too, but yeah that’s my review n again I love it there’s no problem with it it’s just a Bluetooth speaker that works great!😸😺💗Please if ur speaker came in different color as u didn’t chosen, just accept it n stop complaining about it n use it simple as that! I understand about the situation or something, but it’s sounds panicking to it n ridiculous! The speaker sounds great, to me it doesn’t matter if I receive it in different color by accident I still gonna keep it n use it without complaining about it, I can purchase another one with different color as a rainbow, I received in blue which I chose it the color n it’s not even faded or something on it, it’s just the same as the picture shown cmon lol

   Ok, even though I had read the product reviews and knew that people had trouble getting and keeping this speaker charged, I thought that I would be the exception. Turns out I wasn’t. The speaker comes with a cable for charging, but not a plug. So I used whatever I had around.I charged this speaker overnight, sometimes for days, and still when I turned it on it would say, ‘ Low battery.’By chance, I was in my local AT&T store and bought a ‘cube’ and a cable to charge my phone.Turns out the cube I bought has ENOUGH AMPS and that seems to be the difference.So I used any ole cord that fit in the speaker plug and used my new, higher amp cube- lo and behold, speaker fully charged in no time.I am attaching a pic so you know what model I bought and as I said, I found it at AT & T, but if you found one with the same specs, I bet it would work just fine!Loving my speaker again!

   I use this speaker almost daily. The music sounds great, and my podcasts have a nice clean sound too. This is super easy to use – my phone synced almost instantly on setup. I will say that once the battery warning says it’s on medium, it isn’t very long before it runs out altogether. I’d say I easily get the reported hours of battery life promised, but it does seem odd that medium doesn’t truly seem to indicate it’s in the middle of its battery life. I just know now to start charging it as soon as I hear that little alert. No biggie.

    This is without a doubt the best bluetooth enabled speaker system. So many features have been well designed. I will list a few:1. From the app, you can turn on the speaker remotely.2. You can then turn on a second speaker and play them together. It’s so easy!3. You can select “Stereo Mode” with one button and it works flawlessly.4. The stereo sound itself is perfect. Try it. Set them up for example 6 feet apart and stand exactly in the middle of the speakers 6 feet back. You will be able to hear each of the instruments coming from its correct location on the stage, and the vocalist (for example) coming from directly in the center.5. When you stop playing music, after a while they turn themselves off.6. They are water resistant, so you can leave them outside, though better if something is over them so the rain doesn’t hit them directly.The only thing I don’t love about them is that like all Bose equipment they are bass-y and they don’t do a great job of resolving the extra bass they add. So if you listen to a lot of bass-driven music I don’t recommend them. But for music without much bass, e.g. Bob Dylan, any piano music, soloists, they are incredibly good, especially for the price.I strongly recommend buying a pair.
