Happy Customer
I bought the pair of speakers as a gift, which was well received. As with my over the ears headphones the quality is exceptional and functionality great. Would definitely purchase again.

Sound is rich with good base.
This replaced an older model that I bought five years ago and unfortunately could not be repaired. I’m very pleased with this new model.

Bass distortion
Generally very happy with my purchase, only issue is even at -4 setting, there is slight distortion in the bass at moderate levels, don’t know if this is a sample variance issue.

Sound is good but it will not connect to my transmitter as my Bose Soundlink Color did. While I was very happy with the Soundlink Color it is old enough that the battery no longer stays charged & it sometimes gets a lot of static. This new one will only connect through my phone. I have a device that does not have bluetooth of it's own so I have been using a transmetter that I connected to the sound through the headphone jack. The Flex 2 just will not connect with it. As far as I am concerned the newer model is much worse that the older model & I am not at all happy with it! It is very light weight & easy to move but if it won't connect to my device then it may as well be the worst junk out there! The price is too high for a model that will not connect to a simple transmitter

Hi Kathy, thank you for sharing your experience with us. The SoundLink Flex Portable Speaker (2nd Gen) offers up to 12 hours of battery life at moderate volume, with reduced time at maximum volume, and a Bluetooth range of up to 33 feet (10 meters). Bluetooth disconnections can happen for several reasons, such as moving too far from the paired device, interference from nearby electronics like Wi‑Fi routers or microwaves, outdated drivers or firmware, or power‑saving settings that limit performance. Pairing with multiple devices at once or rare hardware issues can also cause repeated drops. Environmental factors, like crowded areas with many wireless signals, and mismatched Bluetooth versions may further contribute to connection issues. To improve stability, we recommend keeping devices close together, updating firmware and software, disabling battery saver mode, disconnecting unused pairings, and restarting both devices to clear temporary glitches. We’re sorry to hear you’re having trouble connecting to your transmitter, and we’d be happy to guide you through some troubleshooting steps. Here’s a helpful guide you can use: https://bose.life/4cHVn89 Jelyn - Bose Customer Support

Music to my ears
Game changer. I always bought cheap speakers assuming it didn’t matter or I’d bring it out, get hammered and lose it- no biggie just order another one. Sound is so good out of this tiny speaker, I can never go back to the cheap ones. If i lose it whilst hammered i shall order another bose

Super Great Speaker
Awesome speaker, great sound. One problem, it seems to take a couple to a few attempts to get it to turn on and stay on, not sure why that is. Other than that, super great speaker!

Speakers will not pair
Great speaker, bought one then another to go stereo. Worked okay for a short while, now they will not pair. Have tried hard reset and every other suggestion on the Bose app, with no luck.

Good
Music is great from the speakers, but the app to help pair isn't great. Sometimes have problems linking the two speakers up

Great speaker
I buy Bose regularly online and have had great service and quality products, recently bought certified refurbished and all I can say is quality, even comes with 2 year guarantee, if it didn’t state certified refurbished on the box you would never know full marks
