Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought the little Bose SoundLink Micro Portable Bluetooth speaker as a "temporary fix" when I purchased a turntable to play my old LPs. I didn't know the turntable didn't come with speakers and I hadn't done any research so I got the little Bose speaker to use until I could figure which "real" speakers to buy. That was more than a month ago and I'm still using the little Bose speaker because it has great sound and excellent range. The audio is crisp, with a rich sound and deep bass. Sound quality is great at low volume, but if I have to turn the volume up I don't hear any distortion or loss of quality. I've since used it for its intended purpose: portability, and I love it for that, too. The Bluetooth pairing to my iPhone or my turntable was easy and painless. The only downside I'd say is the charging cord is very short. But the battery holds a long long charge, so that's good. (specs say 6 hour charge) I use it out by the pool and although I haven't tested it, reviews say it is waterproof - a bonus!

Its robust design ensures that neither its aesthetic appeal nor its acoustic performance is compromised, no matter how hectic things get. For those who appreciate the finer nuances of music, the SoundLink Micro is a revelation. It preserves the integrity of subtle ambient tracks, a feat rarely achieved by portable speakers. This attention to detail in sound reproduction sets it apart as a true connoisseur's choice. Its design is the epitome of convenience. Attaching it to my belt is a breeze, taking just seconds, and once it's on, it stays put securely without any awkwardness or inconvenience. This ease of use enhances its appeal as a go-to speaker for all occasions. Initially, I envisioned it as merely a portable speaker, but it has effortlessly taken on the role of my primary room speaker as well. Its versatility in seamlessly transitioning from an outdoor companion to an indoor sound system is remarkable. In conclusion, the Bose SoundLink Micro is not just a speaker; it's a statement. A testament to Bose's commitment to excellence in audio technology. It's set the bar so high that my loyalty now lies exclusively with Bose. For those in search of the best in portable sound, your search ends here with the SoundLink Micro.

I’ve had a couple Bose speaker and this little beast is no exception to their great reputation! I use this in the morning when I’m getting ready or snap it into my caddy so that I get get extra energized while in the shower. Using it everyday, you would think would ware the charge, but I can get away with charging once every 3 to 4 weeks or so-maybe longer! It packs a lot of sound for a small space but isn’t overwhelming. And the size makes it super travel friendly!

There's a lot of Bluetooth speakers out there that are much less expensive. But none of them sound as good, look as good, or attach as securely to your backpack, etc...as this Bose. Great for hikes (attaches to numerous places on the average backpack). It's water resistant and the battery lasts about six hours, The bass is pretty impressive. You can also simply set it on its back on a coffee table, and the bass bounces off the surface and creates a nice crisp, clear sound. Just get it on sale for $69 (once in a while it goes that low) and it's definitely worth that much.

I am super in love with my boss speaker. While it is portable , it remains in my bathroom as I am serious shower taker. I initially chose it as it seemed to have the’ crispest ‘ sound after my sound test in the store. The audio *could* be better but for the size it is pretty good. I downloaded the accompanying app and I can turn the speaker on and off via my phone. I like how the speaker voice prompt tells me of the battery levels upon powering it on and the battery life is rather well as I probably only have to charge once a week. It also charges rather quickly .I am totally keeping this speaker !

You get what you pay for. That’s why it pays to get a bows over any of the other small Bluetooth speakers out there. The bass is perfect. The midrange and highs are there too. I clip mine to the shoulder harness of my 5.11 backpack and it fits very secure. It’s also water resistant, making it the perfect tool for taking a hike. Well worth the $99!!

I bought this speaker to attach to my URB-E scooter and it works great. I don't like riding with headphones so this let's me hear some music while I cruise at the beach or in the bike lane. Small speaker but the sound is big even outdoors and very portable. You won't find a louder speaker at this size and at this price

Amazing sound in such a small speaker! Love the color and how easy it is to use and setup!

Great speaker , sounds amazing , I use it to mountain bike and it stays on my bike with the rubber strap ! No matter how hard I ride it stays put .. 10/10

Great acquisition to take with me pairwith phone in very important deals ( office)or not so important,(beach, park, travel )

The Bose SoundLink Micro is a very pleasant surprise! Though we obtained it for the family to use, I plan to get another one just for myself. Honestly, it is QUALITY audio from such a diminutive design that it is hard to resist. Here are some thoughts about our experience with Micro so far. First and foremost - the sound! I have a very expensive pair of headphones as my primary means of listening to music. When those headphones are not in use, I also have a very nice set-up of loudspeakers in a couple of rooms in our home. I am picky about sound quality and I know every nuance of some of my favorite albums which I have listened to for years. Believe it or not, the SoundLink Micro actual competes! At much lower volumes, of course, and only when the Micro is placed in close proximity; yet, this little speaker puts out very rich and pleasing high-quality music. The lows, mids and highs are all there and well represented. The sound is as detailed, dynamic and accurate as a little speaker possibly could put out. When compared to other bluetooth speakers we own, I like the Micro somewhat better (more accurate) than our Bose SoundLink Mini II. The bass is also tighter on the Micro when compared to the MIni. The Mini has bass that punches deaper but it tends to drown out the highs. The Micro does not have that problem. I also like the Micro much better than our Bose SoundLink Color II. The Color is not nearly as dynamic though it plays louder. The only bluetooth speaker I like better is our Bose SoundLink Revolve which handedly tops the Micro in every area. That is, every area except for ruggedness and portability. Speaking of portability, that is another aspect that makes the SoundLink Micro stand-out. It fits so perfectly in the hand. There is a nice weight to it that feels right. Also, the silicon outer shell has a quality feel to it. It does not quit feel rubbery in a cheap way. It reminds me more of the fluoroelastomer sports band that came with my wife’s smart watch. It just feels right. The back strap has the same quality feel. The strap secures firmly in place and seems durable enough to last for years. Though the speaker is small enough to fit in my pocket, I probably would rather use the strap to attach the speaker to a bag or belt. My son likes to strap it to his trumpet case when he goes to band practice (see photo). The speaker is both water proof and shock resistant which just adds to its portability. The small size and rugged “take anywhere” aspect of the Micro is what really sets it apart from every other speaker we own. Bose claims that the battery will last up to six hours. Honestly, I have not kept track of how long we use the speaker before needing to charge it. I do know that our experience with Bose with our older speakers is that they tend to under promise and over deliver on their battery claims. I fully expect the Micro would last longer than six hours if played near 60% volume which is where I tend to keep it. As to features, the Bose Micro has plenty. The speaker doubles as a speaker phone with a dedicated button to answer phone calls. The same button also multitasks to pause/play music, skip tracks and summon our devices’ voice assistant. The Bose Connect App is available to download to tweak the speaker’s auto-off settings and to update the firmware when available. Bose says that the App also serves to link the Micro to other Bose bluetooth speakers. I have not tried this feature yet, but certainly will soon. How awesome to have two speakers playing stereo music on the go! The Bose SoundLink Micro is probably not for everyone, but for most will be absolutely fantastic. It certainly sounds nice for its size. Actually, it just sounds great - period. Great job Bose!

I cant believe I waited so long to but a small Bose Mini speaker..absolutely love it... I wish 2 could play at the same time.....SO PORTABLE :) I bring it wherever I need my music

The best portable speaker very handy good for park , work and hiking.

Excellent for my classroom and easy to use. My students love it too.

Small size… big sound… love it for ease of use, and quality of audio for price and size

great sound and size. the portability of this product is wonderful. Easy to use with my phone library,

#1 feature about this speaker is that it’s waterproof. Pictures are worth a thousand words so they speak for themselves. I wouldn’t recommend it, but I had this strapped to my bag and accidentally dropped it into the river for like 30 seconds while kayaking, but to my surprise it was still playing the entire time. The name micro is misleading because it fits perfectly in my palm and sound quality is solid. Sound starts fading out at peak so best to keep volume below 80-85% to keep it crisp and balance. It has better than average bass for a speaker this size, but don’t expect too much out of it. I like the durable tear resistant strap and the outer shell design. So far, I haven’t encountered any problem with strapping it to my bag or bike, but to the on the safe side I would loop another strap around it because it’s not a cheap speaker and I wouldn’t want to lose it. Batter life has been great for me ranging ~5 hours continuously playing. Make sure to download Bose Connect to get the best out of it because it offers “party mode” in which you can connect multiple speakers together. Unfortunately, I am the only one in my group that has this speaker so I don’t get to use this functionality, yet.

I love that it's portable, sounds great and charges quickly.
