BoseNew SoundLink Plus Portable Bluetooth Speaker, Wireless Outdoor Speaker, Waterproof, 20-Hour Battery, Black

Excellent sound from a small box, a lot more than I expected.

Best sound

Amazing deep throaty bass - trust Bose to come up with the goods- traded up from mini link 2

First impressions of this speaker are good. The build quality seems high with a rubberised construction that feels like it will stand up to a lot of wear and tear, and everything has been thought through so that it's ridiculously easy to use. Just turn it on, pair your phone/computer/other device and you're done. On the other hand there are no bonus features that you get with some similar speakers, like being able to use it as a speakerphone.You are encouraged to install the Bose app but it's not necessary and all it really offers you is basic EQ settings. On the plus side you can use the app without having to register an account.The speaker is heavy. It's not something you'll just casually grab to take with you. Charging is via USB-C. You get a double-ended USB-C cable in the box but no power adapter. While the world is rapidly moving towards USB-C everywhere, not everybody will find this convenient. If you only have an older USB-A socket to connect to you'll have to find another way to charge it.This is my first Bose product and I'm aware that they have a good reputation for quality sound. I'm by no means an audiophile but I found the sound OK. I was certainly not blown away by it. It's adequate. Being just one speaker it's obviously not stereo. Personally I'm not convinced it justifies the premium over less expensive competitor products but it feels like it will last a very long time.

Louder then I expected

My second BoseUnique smooth sound

Brilliant sound and dead easy to connect to my phone. Works superbly in my campervan. Feels solid and well protected with a rubberised casing.

Nice quality
