Bose SoundLink Micro review: Bose's awesome pocket speaker is more affordable than ever
The well-built and travel-friendly Bose SoundLink Micro is arguably the best sounding speaker in its tiny size class. A tiny Bluetooth speaker you can literally carry in your pocket sounds like a great concept, but going small -- and I mean really small -- usually means sacrificing sound quality, or more specifically bass performance. Bose's SoundLink Micro, the company's smallest and least expensive Bluetooth model yet, at $100, £100 or AU$150, aims to defy those small speaker conventions. It mostly pulls it off.- The Bose SoundLink Micro is a pocket-sized Bluetooth speaker that is able to play louder and produce richer and louder sound than competing micro wireless speakers
- It's fully waterproof, has a built-in microphone for speakerphone calls, plus an integrated strap for clipping the speaker onto a bag or other objects.

Bose SoundLink Micro Bluetooth Speaker - Black SOUNDLINK MICRO BLK review
Very easy to use and bring along to the beach, but you have to compromise on sound.- Sturdy with a handy rubber strap. Microphone and voice assistants. Party mode and stereo pair.
- No aux input, only wireless. Mediocre sound quality. Short battery life.

The Bose SoundLink Micro is certainly one of the better-sounding speakers we've tested in its size category. At $110, though, it definitely faces stiff competition. The hardest thing for us to reconcile is that the SoundLink Micro is basically twice as expensive as the JBL Clip 2, but offers similar...- Strong audio performance, with rich lows and well-defined highs
- Waterproof
- Good speakerphone mic
- A little overpriced
- No aux input
Bose SoundLink Micro Review
The Bose SoundLink Micro speaker delivers an impressive Bluetooth audio performance for its size, but its price feels a tad high. As the name implies, the Bose SoundLink Micro Bluetooth speaker is quite small. Its $109.95 price might therefore come as a surprise—the comparably sized JBL Clip 2, for instance, costs less than half that amount. Meanwhile, several speakers in the $100 to $150 range deliver more power and better sound quality—albeit in a larger form factor. It's a common conundrum with Bose—we love the speaker, but not the price. Regardless of how much it costs, though, the SoundLink Micro sounds great and is surprisingly powerful for its size. Design Measuring 3.9 by 3.9 by 1.4 inches (HWD) and weighing in at about 10.2 ounces, the SoundLink Micro is pretty tiny. The speaker is available in black, blue, or orange, and its rounded contour is covered in matte, water-resistant silicone rubber. Its IPX7 rating means it can be immersed in water up to one meter deep for up to 30 minutes, making it a solid poolside companion and a good choice for the outdoors in the general. The speaker is designed to ...- Strong audio performance, with rich lows and well-defined highs

The speakers inside smartphones improve with every new generation of handset. But they all sound like garbage when it comes to playing music without the benefit of headphones. That's where the Bose Soundlink Micro comes in.
