What customers say about "Key Specs"
Bose SoundLink Mini II Portable Bluetooth Speakers
- I am very disappointed in the battery life of Bose products. In the 1 1/2 years I have had this Speaker I have taken very good care of it and used it very little. At this point, it will not charge over 50 percent.
- This is my first BOSE product - I love the sound clarity and battery life.
- The battery life is awesome. The unit itself cosmetically looks a little dated, but the sound makes it worth it.
- The Bluetooth connects immediately upon turning on the device. Most take at least a couple seconds, but not the SoundLink.
- Good battery life - charge level was still 100% after watching the first movie.
Bose SoundTouch 10 Wireless Speaker
- Awesome sound and good Bluetooth range.
- Gets quite loud and sounds reasonably good. Good range of this.
- Good connectivity via Bluetooth. Good range.
- The speaker still won't connect to WiFi and Bluetooth.
- With bluetooth this won't work!

What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Bose SoundLink Mini II Portable Bluetooth Speakers
- I wanted a well made, good sounding, small portable speaker for the home and I don't think I could have made a better choice.
- The sound from this small speaker is spectacular. It produces great bass with well balances treble and is made with precision quality- it is surprisingly heavy.
- I enjoy the excellent battery life, sounds, tones, and volume range from this small speaker.
- The bass is absolutely astounding from such a small unit.
- Great little speaker; very big sound for its size. I'm also really surprised by the BT range - much better than the JBL flip I've used in the past.
Bose SoundTouch 10 Wireless Speaker
- The small size, booming sound and ease of use.
- Powerful for its nice size.
- Good size for small/medium rooms.

What customers say about "Features"
Bose SoundLink Mini II Portable Bluetooth Speakers
- The ability to use it as a speakerphone is a handy feature. Callers have noted that my voice sounds clear. An incoming call can be answered (or refused) with a tap of a button on top of the unit.
- Just push the button on the speaker and you can speak through it. I can hear others well through it, and they tell me they hear me normally.
- Connecting is also a breeze, after your initial set up. Its as easy as pushing a button.
- The action button is a really cool way to let you pause and change tracks without fussing with your phone.
- I like the multifunction button to pause and skip songs.
Bose SoundTouch 10 Wireless Speaker
- For this to work, you do have to download the Bose SoundTouch App. Good app, comfortable.
- I have tried 3 ways (phone, remote, and on the speaker). I paused the music on the remote, and started it again on the phone.
- The on-device interface and remote control are simple: power, source presets and volume buttons.
- The setup was very easy. I love the control of the entire system right from my phone.
- SoundTouch app can't control the speakers!

What customers say about "Interfaces"
Bose SoundLink Mini II Portable Bluetooth Speakers
- They have also increased the battery life and changed from a proprietary charging connector to a standard mini-USB port.
- I really appreciate that it can charge through the included proprietary base or through micro-USB.
- I use it with phone and desktop computer via bluetooth and now have it working via the aux input as sound system for my TV.
- Everything great except it buzz really loud connecting with aux when nothing is played.
- The AUX jack, thru which music plays fine, shuts off after 15 minutes.
Bose SoundTouch 10 Wireless Speaker
- I tried connecting it to my smartphone via the AUX input. Works well.
- Bose has done pretty well with these speakers. Good connectivity via AUX.
- Durable AUX port. Bluetooth works fine. I like it.
- If no audio input for 20 mins, it turns off.
- Auxiliary input started making a horrible static noise.
