SoundLink Flex Series
Compact, durable, impressive sound for size, but distorts high volume.

Running these analyses costs money. Buy through my links to help keep lights on! I may get a small commission.
Mine died after 8 years of near daily use. I almost placed an order for another Micro 1st version today until realising there's a 2nd gen in the works. Wonder when it'll launch in India, I'd grab the new one right away if I could 😪
I have the first gen of these and they are great. Sound quality is good, fairly durable, good battery life. I mostly use it at home but we take it with us on vacations.
I got two first Gen Bose micros for $53 a piece with tax. It was on clearance at Walmart. Nice sounding little speakers in stereo.
Bose Soundlink Micro. Can play loud, excellent bass response, and easy to connect. https://www.bose.com/p/speakers/bose-soundlink-micro-bluetooth-speaker/SLMC-SPEAKERWIRELESS.html
Huge disappointment - have the original for many years primarily strapped to the bike handle bar and taken on occasional camping trips. How am I supposed to answer a phone call during the ride? For something that is marketed towards the cyclists in as much of their promo photos, microphone removal was the stupidest decision ever. My original is still going, but battery capacity has declined and Micro-USB is annoying. Such a disappointment with the new release - I was hoping to buy two for stereo...
Yeah, have been looking out for it too. For once the fb algorithms delivered. My original is great.
That's a lot of Taylor swift being played :) Such a great little speaker. Mine's about the same. Am sure it'll be out soon - keep an eye on the deals for the older model, then you'll know they're clearing stock.

Portable, durable, punchy bass, but distorts up close, dull vocals.

Budget king for loud, deep bass; bulky with harsh mids.
