Does what you expect. The only thing that would be better is if they made something as sleek and functional that provided some level of waterproofing. But I guess if I wanted to take my speaker snorkeling I would have bought a different brand speaker.

 Bose - SoundLink® Mini Bluetooth Speaker II - Carbon
Bose - SoundLink® Mini Bluetooth Speaker II - Carbon
SoundLink® Mini Bluetooth® speaker II delivers full sound with dramatically deeper lows than you'd expect from a speaker that fits in the palm of your hand. And because it's wireless and ultra-compact, it's easy to take Bose® sound anywhere. With the built-in speakerphone you can take calls out loud with clear sound. And voice prompts make Bluetooth pairing easy. The SoundLink® Mini II can play unplugged for hours and be charged from most USB power sources.

I owned the original Soundlink Mini (which I absolutely love) and was excited to buy a Soundlink Mini 2 due to its new features (speakerphone, better battery life, USB charging) but was disappointed to hear it wasn't as loud as the original and lacked depth in sound (which is what made the original so impressive). Also does not have a replaceable battery any more which could cause issues down the road. To top it all off, even though it was quieter, the battery life was same or possibly worse than before. A big step back for Bose in my opinion. Not a bad speaker, but did not meet expectations.

If you don't need 4k or a curved screen (as most people don't) this is as nice of a tv as I could ask for. Large bright screen, easy to use Smart Tv features (oh who am I fooling, I just use Netflix, but it is handy), 3D picture I'll never use, and half the weight of my 50in plasma. The pictures on bestbuy.com don't convey how thin the display is, or how sharp the stand looks. Buy this now and in 7 years when this seems "obsolete" you can get the newest 30k screen that's shaped like an octopus (or whatever The fad is at the time). Warning: the remote doubles as a pointer to navigate menus and makes cats aggressively attack your new screen. Just FYI.

What's great about it: Great sound, decent price
What's not so great: Cat likes to chew on them
After trying out all of the expensive in ear headphones, I felt as though the standard apple ear pods had a richer, more balanced sound than other costing $100-150 more. For my money I'd rather keep a few sets of these bad boys around for back up and in case the cat chews up another pair.
This product has... taste good!

Bose® SoundLink® Mini Speaker: Enjoy full, robust sound anywhere you go with this speaker that features an ultracompact design for easy movement from room to room. Bluetooth technology allows you to wirelessly stream music and more from your compatible cell phone, audio player and more.
 

is this on sale in store too?

The original is selling for $180 online and in store, although many stores are selling out of this older model. It has better sound (in my opinion) then the new Mini 2, so it's worth snatching one up before they're all gone.

I got a Bose soundlink mini

Can you trade in for the new Bose soundlink mini 2
Right now the Sound Link Mini 2 is selling for $20 more than the original. If it's new and you have a reception you can exchange it if you pay the difference. I will warn you that in my experience the original has deeper sound and is louder, so I wouldn't exchange it. Also battery life was same or worse with the 2 in my experience (contrary to what is advertised)

Sound comes out only from Front "Bose" side... Help!

After getting this as a graduation present, I've had this for 7 months and I've noticed my speaker lost its loudness. It only plays sound from the side that says "Bose." Isn't music supposed to come out from both sides? What can I do to manually fix this? I wasn't given the receipt... how can I get this checked or fixed? Thank you!
The speakers are directional. They face the front only (the Bose side). Not sure why they sound more quiet though.

Red Blinking Light and Won't Turn on

I recently opened one of these speakers from a box that was about a year old. It had never been used before, and so I plugged it into charge. I got a red blinking light as it was charging. I figured the light would go away after some time, but the red light will not go away and the speaker will not turn on. Is there anything I can do?
The red blinking light means low battery. It should go off once it has a charge. I'm guessing it isn't charging correctly. Possibly failed battery or charger? Return it if possible.
