Great sound. Perfect base. I have seen this comment a couple of times but want to emphasize: Placing the speaker closer or farther from a wall changes the sound. Adjust the distance until you get the sound you prefer. I plan on using this speaker in my woods sitting around a campfire so I will place a couple pieces of firewood behind the speaker to simulate a wall. That should give the full, reflective sound that a wall provides. The speaker sounds better at home than it did at the store.

This is a great product. I had the Mini 1 and decided to get the Mini 2 because of the new features and I love the Carbon color. My only issue is that the speaker does not charge via the USB from my laptop computer. I thought this was a feature that the unit was capable of. My laptop is running windows 10 and it has a dedicated USB charge port that charges even when the laptop is turned off. I can't figure this out. Please advise Bose.

I have owned 2 of these speakers in 2 years. Best sound in a speaker this size and I like the fact you can be connected to more than one device at a time. Also like the voice prompts. But...I just returned the second one under an extended warranty. After about a year, both speakers had the same problem. If they sat for longer than a week or so without being used, they wouldn't power on. The only way I could get the power button to power on the unit was to plug it in to power. The battery hadn't drained. When it powered on after being plugged in, it said its battery life was around 70%. Not sure if I want to buy a third one at this point. Very bummed as I still like this speaker the best out of all others I've tried.

I've had this bose soundlink mini for a year- most of this time it has been a good speaker that suited my needs. It has started randomly turning off even when fully charged. It has nothing to do with the automatic shut off that effects it after periods of inactivity. It turns off 2 minutes into a tv show, after playing one song in Spotify, you name it. The reason I'm writing this here is because there seems to be little info on how to fix/correct this issue that is getting worse.

I can't believe someone would buy 6 "over priced and poorly designed" Bose products, then buy a 7th and complain about it. I have only purchased 3 myself and, though pricey, believe I have gotten more than my money's worth. Recently a friend allowed me to pair my tablet to his soundlink mlnl and, although I shouldn't have been, I was amazed. I will be picking up my "over priced and poorly designed" SoundLink ll mini in a matter of days.

I just wanted something to play the music from my Ipod in my home gym and wasn't expecting this quality of sound especially from such a small speaker......not an audiophile but the performance is better than much more expensive sound systems that I've purchased over the years. Thinking of purchasing the larger wave player for my main living area now. My music came alive

1 month outside of the warranty and the battery stops working - either in the cradle or plugged directly into the mains the device will not charge. Incredibly disappointing from what was an expensive purchase and a company I have previously had excellent service from. Will not be purchasing Bose again unless their loyalty to their customers improves and the batteries in these clearly faulty devices are replaced.

Purchased as a gift and could not be more pleased. Love it!

The mini II is better than the original that I had for over a year, Definitely a step up.

Bought this a month ago and use it regularly. Sound is great, and battery life very good.
