Bose New SoundLink Flex Portable Bluetooth Speaker (2nd Gen), Portable Outdoor Speaker with Hi-Fi Audio, Up to 12 Hours Battery Life, Waterproof and Dustproof, Black

Initial Impressions and Setup:At first, I found the Bose SoundLink Flex Gen 2 a bit overwhelming with its bass. The strong low-end seemed to overpower the vocals and instrumentals, lacking the balance I typically enjoy. However, I followed a key approach: playing it 3 hours daily at medium volume without EQ adjustments for the first two weeks, as it seemed the sound quality benefited from some break-in time. The total time spent playing the speaker over 15 days at 3 hours per day is 45 hours for proper open-up. It’s also worth noting that this model sounds best when laid flat.Sound Quality Over TimeAfter two weeks, the speaker began to perform exceptionally well. The sound became fuller and more balanced, with bass that complemented rather than overwhelmed other frequencies. Vocals and instrumental clarity improved significantly, creating an immersive listening experience. Additionally, I found no EQ adjustment necessary after this initial period, as the sound naturally settled into an impressive balance.Design and Portability:The Flex Gen 2 stands out with its rugged design and IP67 water and dust resistance rating, making it perfect for outdoor and indoor use alike. Its compact size and durable, silicone-backed build make it easy to carry, while also handling drops and scratches well.Battery Life and Charging:Battery life lives up to Bose’s claim, delivering up to 12 hours on a full charge. Charging is efficient with the USB-C port, which also allows for a quick recharge. Overall, it’s reliable for extended use, whether indoors or out.Final Thoughts:For those looking for a portable, high-quality speaker, the Bose SoundLink Flex Gen 2 excels. While it may require a brief break-in period to reach its best sound, the results are worth it. Avoid high volumes in the first couple of weeks, and you’ll find that it naturally delivers great audio without the need for EQ tweaks.

I have seven Bose products and recently I see the reviews of their products is bad. But I saw this product had great reviews so went for it anyway. I have to say what freaking great product. It does magic for its size. If you keep in the corner of a room on the floor no one will believe it’s such a small speaker. Great sound quality, study form factor and good battery life. I took to vacations and play it ever day in the bath during showers ….. just loving it

My second purchase of this model . Great stuff and sound . Have been using Bose last decade or so and ultimate in sound speakers. Play time on 1 charge is approx 14 hours thus far
