Unbelievable battery life
on August 17, 2017

Gender:Male
I bought this to use at work replacing another brand that was old and tired. The highs, mids, and mid bass sound very good. Nice and crisp. Not much in the low bass department but you can't expect that from such a small speaker. What I really wanted to do was comment on the battery life. I don't know what volume level warrants the 12hr battery rating but I got 37.5 hrs from mine this first week I've had it. That's not a typo. I have my Revolve sitting up on a bookshelf behind my desk in a room 24' X 40' in a relatively quiet environment. I play it loud enough to be heard throughout the room but not much more than that. So anyone in this type of setting can expect much more than the 12hr rating.

Love the Soundlink Revolve, so much I bought 2

Bought the Soundlink Revolve, I was really contemplating buying the Revolve +, but they say size matters and it does. The + was just a bit too big to take on vacation. I travel quite a bit for work and the Revolve was just what i needed. The sound from this little guy is amazing. Kudos to Bose! I also bought the charging dock for added convenience. Then I saw the Bose connect had a feature called party mode or use them as L/R stereo speakers. So of course I bought another one and WOW! The Bass is not window shaking earth rattling, that is taken care of by my Bose lifestyle system at home. I use a spare Dslr camera case to transport these little guys. And yeah when I'm out of town in the hotels I'm sometimes told to turn them down, but even hotel staff was amazed that the sound they heard was coming out of these 2 little speakers. I know I got a little carried away but it just goes to show the power of these speakers. So far I own Soundlink mini II, QC-15's, 2 pairs of QC-35's (the wife wanted some too after watching me sleep like a baby on the plane, lol) Bose companion computer speakers and Bose lifestyle surround system for the family room.

Hello Ponce, thank you for the kind words, we are so happy to hear you are enjoying your Revolve speakers. I have been incredibly impressed with my Revolve, the only downfall is that all my friends constantly want to "borrow" it. Thanks again for the great review and for being a return Bose customer, we really appreciate it!

Attention Soundlink III owners
on July 16, 2017

I love music period! My music library is extensive, with over 3k songs across pretty much all genres. Some times its smooth jazz, reggae, classical, easy listening, hiphop, rock and roll, R&B, and so on. Now I’ve had every Soundlink BOSE has offered, beginning with the Soundlink I; so this review is going to be straight forward.
Again I LOVE MUSIC, so I want a speaker that produces crystal clear notes across the highs, mids, and lows, and fills whatever area (room/outdoors) I’m currently occupying. So I’m more interested in a speaker that delivers “complete balance” and not necessarily projects more bass, or mids., I like clear, natural, and loud notes that give you a great experience. I also use it when watching movies, cutting the grass, and taking a shower. In other words, I never leave home without it!
Now for the review…the Revolve Plus is BEAUTIFUL, in fact, the website pictures don’t do it justice. Its light weight (lighter and louder than my Soundlink III), impressive volume, and crystal clear! It has other whistle and bells I won’t mention in this review however, they’re more “added value” as opposed to sound quality. As well, I won’t be able to provide any objective feedback on battery life, although I did do a complete charge, and 8 hours later, its still going strong.
So here’s where the review gets disappointing. I did a “side by side” sound quality comparison between my Soundlink III, and the BOSE Revolve Plus, and the results where surprising. While the Revolve Plus is noticeably louder than the Soundlink III, BOSE comprised on “complete balance” to increase the volume. In all fairness, both speakers were placed against the same wall, set to the highest volumes (minus 1 notch), using the same computer, same songs, and in my humble opinion, the Soundlink III wins. Yes that’s correct. The Soundlink III delivers a more complete sound quality across the music notes, all crystal clear, with a touch of deep bass. Just enough to be distinctive without drowning out the rest of the range. On the other hand, the Revolve delivers the same crystal clear sound quality, at a much higher volume however, the touch of bass is more appealing on the Soundlink III. Yes its there on the Revolve, Just not as good as the Soundlink III.
So all you Soundlink III owners, DO NOT rush out to upgrade to the Revolve Plus unless you’re like me, and just want a 2nd speaker that’s more portable than the Soundlink III. Which by the way, now belongs to my wife (she’s very happy!) Overall, I’m happy with the Revolve Plus and plan to continue enjoying my music library!

I love this gift from my girlfriend and this is so far the best and affordable speaker. It is as good as B&O and I totally love it.

Hi Jacky, thanks for the kind words, we are so happy to hear you are enjoying your gift! I received my Revolve a few weeks ago and am obsessed with the sound and power of this compact speaker. We hope you'll consider adding another in the future, you can pair two for stereo or party mode.

I just bought this today and heard such great things about it. Went to BestBuy where they had MiniBose2, which I own and listened to it and then this Revolve and was blown away. I loved my Mini but I found a new love. Thank you Bose !!!!!
