I am an electronic and gadget freak. I like to try new products and I am always excited when something comes out that gets a lot of buzz. Bose has been around a long time and either like them or you don’t. I always questioned the price to value ratio of there products. One thing I can say everything they make is built to last and it’s always quality. Quality materials and a good customer experience. I owned Bose acoustimass back in the day and upgraded to a full system with 301’s and I loved that system. Great full sounds, clarity and bass. I got away from Bose as I got older because the prices were just too extreme for my budget. I have purchased many Bluetooth speakers from JBL, Soundcore, and Harmon Kardon. They all bring something great to the table. Now I saw the new Bose Soundlink max for $100 off during the holidays and I made the purchase. I love this speaker. It’s my go to when I want something to carry around while doing work around the house or just sitting down with a cocktail. This little speaker sounds full and defies its size. Bluetooth connectivity is quick and responsive. I got the black and I bought a third party case to protect it when I’m outside and it looks great. Battery life around 40% volume I got just past the 20 hour mark as advertised. Kick up the volume you’ll obviously get less. If you get down to 20% battery it takes about 4 hours to charge. The buttons are soft and tactile. You have your power button, multi function button you can program, Bluetooth button, volume up and down and track forward and back/pause. Minimalist lighting which I like. When I use this in the bedroom it doesn’t light up the room. I have yet to try snapdragon sound as I don’t use android. The sound I get through Apple Music lossless sounds great. Good clarity size defying bass and great mids. Full sounding and it makes me smile every time I turn this thing on. There’s an app with eq and everything you need to tailor your sound. Bose should take the route Soundcore does and have more eq settings but what’s here works. I love this speaker and it’s my go to amongst all my toys. At $299 highly recommended at $399 still worth it but it’s Bose it’s a luxury purchase. Totally worth it!! Tried so many Bluetooth speakers and this is the best all rounder for music lovers. If you’re on the fence.. go for it! There are louder speakers out there but they don’t have the sound quality this one has.

Jumped on a price drop to get a really high quality sound in a high quality package!
The sound on this thing is so clear and nice even on stock settings. I did a lot of internet searching to find the unit I wanted. I really like the warm Bose sound without overdoing it on bass (I am not always in a party). The unit is well made and high quality. The cost at list price is very high, but catch a sale (like I did) and jump on it fast! Pairing is multi-pairing and can connect to your phone and computer at the same time. EQ adjustments if you need or want to, are through a phone app only. It does require more juice to charge, so it does come with its own charger and USB-C cable. the Blue Dusk color is aesthetically pleasing and glad to have a non-black speaker in my home. In addition to bluetooth, it has Aux plug in capability, which I will still need to try. The volume easily fills up a room at less than 50% strength. For use around the home this is perfect! I was thinking between this and the Soundlink Flex and I am glad to have this richer sound. I think you do get what you pay for.
