Product Description
The SoundLink Flex Bluetooth speaker does more than just immerse you – it provides a strong connection to your music. With crisp audio free of distortions, you’ll hear every instrument on the track and nuance in the vocals. It doesn’t matter how the portable speaker is positioned: PositionIQ technology detects its orientation and ensures the best sound. The portable Bluetooth speaker is packed with exclusive technologies. The transducer offers clear sound and deep bass. Its digital signal processing technologies, proprietary code, and custom algorithms work together for ideal sound quality wherever you are. Really, wherever, since the SoundLink Flex is an IP67 waterproof speaker. Its exterior can handle falls, the coat won’t peel or flake, and it resists corrosion and UV light. It’s also easy to hold or store, and you can secure the outdoor speaker with its utility loop. Rigorously tested to meet an IP67 rating, the SoundLink Flex is waterproof. It floats, too, so it won’t sink if it falls off your boat. For added protection from dust and debris, the Bluetooth speaker is crafted and sealed with waterproof materials. Plus, to ensure it can travel with you, Bose subjected the outdoor speaker to water, temperature, and drop tests. These proved that it’s durable enough for anything. And its battery offers up to 12 hours of unplugged play time. The Bose Connect app lets you customize the portable speaker settings, update software, and more. If your phone isn’t nearby, press and hold a button on the IP67 waterproof speaker to access your phone’s Siri or Google Assistant. A built-in microphone means you can also take and make phone calls through the SoundLink Flex. It also connects to other Bluetooth devices within 30 feet for even bigger sound.

In stark contrast to the first one I bought, this unit is solidly built and well constructed. It feels and looks very sturdy and doesn't give me the impression that it will be easily broken or damaged.
The design is better than that of other speakers I've owned in the past. It has a good, broad surface area, so the sound isn't at all tinny, and due to its shape, it does not fall over, even if put onto a softer surface.
Getting it paired to my device was fairly easy.
I like the layout of the buttons.
I really did not expect a speaker this size to sound great. I wasn't in the market for something that could dominate an outdoor party, so this would have been tolerable. However, I am very pleased with the sound quality. It's neither too tinny nor too heavy, and I find it works just as well for music as it does for other audio. Mainly, I use it in my room to read audio books, and it does a good job; I'm sure it would be quite a nice choice for those of you who actually are looking for something to use outdoors. To get that good sound from it, you don't have to blare the volume or turn it too far down, and the sound quality is superior to that of some larger speakers.
There are a couple of other nice features I sincerely appreciate. First, I frankly find it obnoxious that when you turn on many speakers, or turn them back off again, for that matter, they play an annoying, little bit of music that is far too loud and impossible to disable. I'd rather have them simply beep, if that much, or do as this one does and give you the percent of battery power left. I like that this takes a USB-C cable--no more irritating, fragile micro USB for me. Its battery life is quite good, which helps me because I sometimes tend to forget to charge my things. Last but not least, this speaker is the only one I've had that beeps to acknowledge that it is charging when you plug it in. The sound is unobtrusive and quiet, which I prefer.
Overall, you'll find this to be a very wise buy. You can get cheaper units, certainly, but spend a bit for this, and you won't regret it.
My experience with the Bose Soundlink Flex Bluetooth portable speaker has been nothing short of remarkable. It has surpassed my expectations in several key areas. The sound quality, for starters, is incredible for a speaker of its size. The bass is robust and punchy, mids are clear and crisp, while the highs are distinct, creating a well-rounded and immersive audio experience.
The standout feature of this speaker is its ability to be highly portable without sacrificing sound quality. Its compact size is perfect for on-the-go use, easily fitting into my bag. The battery life is another highlight, offering extended playback time, which is ideal for outdoor events or travel.
Bluetooth connectivity is swift and stable, ensuring a smooth pairing process. The added water-resistant feature enhances its versatility, making it suitable for a variety of settings, be it next to the pool or in the kitchen.
Bose’s reputation for durability is evident in this speaker's build. It feels robust and long-lasting, with conveniently placed and user-friendly buttons for easy operation.
In conclusion, the Bose Soundlink Flex is an exceptional portable speaker that excels in delivering high-quality sound. It's a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a reliable, portable speaker that doesn’t compromise on audio performance.
What sets this speaker apart is its portability without compromising on audio performance. Its compact design makes it easy to carry around, fitting seamlessly into my bag for on-the-go use. The battery life is impressive, providing hours of continuous playback, perfect for outdoor gatherings or travel.
The Bluetooth connectivity is reliable and quick, ensuring a hassle-free pairing experience. Additionally, the water-resistant feature is a bonus, making it suitable for various environments, whether indoors or outdoors.
The build quality is typical of Bose - sturdy and durable, ensuring longevity. The buttons are well-placed and easy to use, allowing for quick adjustments without needing to reach for the connected device.
In summary, the Bose Soundlink Flex is a powerhouse of audio performance packed into a portable speaker. Whether for casual listening or as the life of a party, it delivers exceptional sound quality. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a portable speaker without compromising on sound fidelity.
