Exceeds expectations, super fun, cool accessories available
I use this while sailing and doing other outdoor water sports. I love that they're waterproof, floating, droppable, easy to hang up on sailboat parts, and highly visible. Their form factor is great -- small and packable.They sound better than they need to for their size and the circumstances in which they get used. I get the impression Bose applies sophisticated digital signal processing for these, which, to some degree, compensates for the smaller form factor and corrects the frequency response appropriate to the acoustic properties of the enclosure, and also to the volume level. I have multiple Bose products (2 of these, Frames, QC35, QC20, Soundwear Companion, SoundLink Revolve+, Companion 2 series III) and they are consistently very good across the product family. Not always the very very best, but consistently good. And I'd rather remain in the ecosystem than get individual speakers piecemeal to get slightly better sounds. Plus, the worst aspect of music acoustics experience while sailing isn't limited by this speaker anyway. (It's windy! And splashy! And people are yelling!)I eventually got a second to make a stereo pair. The stereo pairing sounds great and is okay to set up, but unfortunately if you turn off the speakers, they go back into single-speaker mode and you have to go through the semi-obscure button-pressing sequence to re-enter stereo mode. I wish they just remained in stereo mode after you put them into it once. This is a software/firmware feature so I'm hoping eventually Bose makes an update where the stereo mode persists across speaker reboots.I also love that this, like other Bose Bluetooth speakers, work well together. I don't use that feature very often, but I love the attention to detail that Bose provides.Third parties sell accessories for them. My favorite (which is unfortunately no longer available) is the "AmazonBasics Case with Kickstand for Bose SoundLink Micro Bluetooth Speaker - Orange". I got one for my first of these speakers, but by the time I got a second speaker, Amazon stopped selling these. So instead I got "Portable Carrying Case for Bose SoundLink Micro Speaker, MENEEA..." for my second one. That one feels like a lower-quality item plus it doesn't match the other, so I'm disappointed with the mismatch. First-world problems.Ver másVer menos
