Great portable speaker

This is a great speaker that packs a punch for its size. Sound quality is pretty consistently good at all levels and I find that it gets impressively loud at the highest volumes. The bass isn't as rich and/or deep as the Soundlink Max, but the mid and treble are good. Unfortunately I don't have the first gen Soundlink Flex so I'm unable to compare the sound quality from first to second gen, but I'm objectively pretty happy with the sound quality of the second gen. Overall, I think this is a great quality speaker for the price point and great for everyday use.
In terms of design and functionality, I find that this is truly a portable speaker. It's lightweight and has a little strap on the side that allows you to hook it onto a carabiner, etc. It feels pretty sturdy, which makes it easy to throw into a tote bag for on-the-go use. The material is fairly dust-resistant which I appreciate. Battery life is as-advertised. I mostly use the speaker at home and carry it with me from room to room. Would be good to see more color options in the future.
I also have the Soundlink Max and was successfully able to pair the Soundlink Flex for party mode, which is a lot of fun and a great feature. I'll note that I also have the Soundlink Revolve and haven't been able to pair that one with any other speakers.

for my kids’ room, where they can listen to audiobooks and songs. It’s very portable and fits into my work bag. I can listen to my music and books while I work. It’s perfect for jobs like bus or van drivers who can’t wear headphones. Bose, you did it again amazing!

Perfect compact portable speaker!

The first thing I would like to highlight is how easy it is to use this speaker. You can easily connect it to any device via Bluetooth and the compact size of the speaker is perfect without compromising the sound quality. The sound is great, loud and clear. Another plus is the minimal amount of buttons, which allows you to control it without having to use the app. The compactness and the lightness of the speaker paired with the long battery life, makes it perfect for taking it in any indoor/outdoor adventures. The only thing missing, which would greatly enhace the portability of the speaker would be to include a carrying case to avoid any damage. The case would also serve as a storing case preventing any dust from getting into the speaker for long periods of not being used. The black color makes it look sleek and elegant.

Perfect Size & Flexibility

Bose fails to disappoint once again. I was in the market for a portable speaker that could easily fit my bag that I bring with me everywhere. At the same time, I was not willing to sacrifice sound quality. The 12 hour battery life is more than plenty for any of my needs. I am very impressed with the powerful bass in a speaker that only weighs a little over 1 lbs, along with the fact the sound does not get distorted at louder volumes. This speaker is a great option to all no matter what your music preference is with the ability to customize the EQ using the Bose App.
I also love my Bose Soundlink Max but this SoundLink Flex pairs with it perfectly. I mean this quite literally with the ability to pair both speakers together in Party mode!
For its size, this speaker is the best in the market and look forward to bringing it with be everywhere in my travels. Credit to Bose once again.

Light but Powerful

This portable speaker is a great all around! It’s small and lightweight, making it easy to take anywhere without compromising sound. I love that it's waterproof, so I can enjoy my favorite podcasts or music in the shower without worry. The battery life is impressive, I've had it for a couple weeks and haven't had to charge it since the initial charge. It's also rugged enough for outdoor adventures so I feel confident that I can take it anywhere without worrying about damaging it.

Party Mode Activated!

Named this speaker "Tiny Giant" because as small/portable it is, you'll still be able to bring the tunes wherever life takes you. Recently, brought the speaker with me on a trip. Fit nicely in my backpack with minimal weight added, not enough to feel I'm lugging around a heavy device. To me being able to listen to music as I get ready for the day or wind down is crucial, so big, big plus that this is a tiny but mighty lil speaker. I expect nothing less than a crisp yet smooth sound and this speaker delivers. When I'm at home that's when the real party begins, with the use of party mode between the SoundLink Flex and my Bose SoundLink Max. While doing chores and in/out of multiple spaces, situating one speaker in the kitchen and one in the living is quite the experience. It's feels luxurious even to be able to go about and not miss any music or my favorite podcasts. Impressed that there isn't a delay between the speakers too. Can't rave about this system enough and the speakers themselves.

Great Portable Speaker - Battery is Lacking

I liked it much more than the big max version of the speaker. The sound was much more clear and the speaker felt a little better made. Took it on vacation with me to the island last week and it was much more easy and functional to use. My only gripe if anything is that I wish it had more longer of a battery life on a single charge. The battery seems to drain quick in my experience.
