Smooth speaker that can withstand tough. But the sound I was a bit disappointed with, actually ... it sounds quite odd considering the size, but not that wow sound like bose is known to be able to troll out of small speakers. It was a return for my part.

Gone are the days when the bulky and high power-devouring speakers used to be installed for amplifying sound. These days, speakers are available in small form factor, which intensifies the sound level to a great extent without major compromises on the sound quality.

Excellent sound

Tiny bit heavier than expected; otherwise great

Bluetooth-enabled speakers are common nowadays, especially portable ones that you can easily carry with you. However, not all of them can deliver big sound with good quality in a small package. As for those that can, the Bose SoundLink Micro is one of them.

Working in the merchant navy, I need a good speaker for my work shop onboard ship, gym,when painting, when out in the boat.

It takes a lot for a Bluetooth speaker to stand out these days. The novelty of wireless sound has given way to an absolute explosion of Bluetooth listening devices in nearly every size and shape imaginable.

Bluetooth speakers come in all shapes and sizes, but the Bose SoundLink Micro is more than a little unusual. It's a square-shaped, rubberised speaker about the size of your palm, has soft, rounded corners and edges, and is designed for those who want to take their music on-the-go.

Ruggedised and portable design; Multifunctional voice-assistant button

Terrible sound quality; Doesn't float; Dubious strap

Rugged portable Bluetooth speakers are currently all the rage in the world of audio, with every man and his dog is trying to get into market. That's why it's no surprise Bose has decided to do the same with its SoundLink Micro.

Compact design; Close to indestructable; Good sound for the price

Doesn't do 360 sound; Not quite as load or clear as the Wonderboom

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.

The Bose Soundlink Micro is a pricey, but competent and compact Bluetooth speaker that performs well at all but the loudest volumes.

Rugged and well weatherized; Produces surprisingly pleasant audio with good separation; given its small dimensions; Can be paired with a second...

Monophonic sound; unless paired with a second speaker; Noticeable low-frequency distortion at higher volume levels; No auxiliary audio input or output
