Bose Soundlink Micro Review - Tiny, But Sounds ALMOST As Good As The JBL Flip 4

2017-11-02
it's a shame the Bose Soundlink micro is so underrated this speaker is slightly bigger than the JBL clip to sound so almost as good as the JBL clip 4 and the strap on the back makes it super convenient in so many different situations it's a little pricey but definitely worth the money don't forget to Like comment and subscribe and you can watch some of the videos here after you don't wants in this video like I just said the Bose Soundlink micro lis is a little pricey compared to its competition retelling for 110 dollars but it does come in three colorways black blue and orange for comparison the JBL clip 2 is currently selling for $60 and the JBL flip 4 which I feel is the best small portable bluetooth speaker on the market right now is on sale for $80 if you want to pick either of these speakers up I'll have links to description below and I'll keep them updated so you can get the best view possible unboxing the Bose Soundlink micro is pretty bare-bones you get the speaker a micro USB cable for charging some documentation and that's it the speaker itself is slightly bigger than the JBL clip 2 but it is 100 grams heavier than the clip 2 weighing in at 287 grams whereas the exteriors of the JBL clip 2 in flip floor are made up of fabric and soft Tufts rubber the entire body of the Bose sound like micro is in case buy a silicone shell so it's pretty rugged but it still looks good the term resistance strap on the back is also made out of silicone but as much tougher and doesn't really stretch all that much but this strap on the back is so handy it really makes the speaker the perfect outdoor companion you can quickly attach it to your bike frame your backpack your beach umbrella or whatever without having them a guide for anything or get extra equipment and the strap itself is super easy to use but once it's on it's on but for those wondering no it does not come off regarding speaker setup you've got your power button Bluetooth button micro USB port for charging and led battery gauge and Bluetooth indicator light on the top but unfortunately there is no aux jack on the front you've got indented volume up and volume down buttons and in the centre you've got your texture and multi-purpose button to control your music playback single press to player pause double press to skip a track triple press to go back a track and press and hold to activate Siri there's a single transducer on the right side and on the left side there's a past radiator that produces a surprising amount of base for a speak of this sized battery 70 percent connected to I phone when it comes to wireless range the Bose Soundlink micro is good for forty feet but it did have issues keeping a solid connection when there were multiple walls between it and my phone it wasn't able to keep a solid connection as good as the bose sound ware or bose qc25 - i also noticed there was some significant latency when watching videos but just like all other bose speakers to sound like micro can be connected to two devices at the same time the bose sound like micro is also ipx7 certified so besides being super rugged water isn't a problem either you can submerge it down to one meter and you won't have any problems the only downfall is it doesn't float regarding sound quality the Bose Soundlink micro sounds way better than the JBL clipped to the clips - sounds very tinny and gets round out by all of the bass whereas it sounded like micro gets much louder has an even sound signature has more than enough basic keep you satisfied and has a pretty good soundstage but although the Bose Soundlink micro does sound really good for its size it doesn't sound as good as two JBL flip for the JBL flip before it gets a little louder there's deeper bass more trouble and instrument separation is a little better a proportional listen when you're out hiking or on a bike ride the bow selling micro will get the job done with no problems but remember the Bose Soundlink micro is a very directional speaker almost all of the sound comes out through the front and a little bit of bass comes out the back so if you're gonna listen to music I suggest you face it towards you instead of placing on a table and having all the music shoot upwards but when it comes to battery life dad's where the Bose sound like Micro falls short Bose advertises to battery life of six hours and that's what I've been getting six hours and some change unfortunately there's no official quick charging and to charge the speaker from empty to full is gonna take about four hours for comparison the JBL clip two has a battery life phone for eight hours and I routinely average about 14 hours of battery life on the JBL 54 which is two hours more than the advertised battery life of twelve hours so if you plan on taking the Bose sound like micro with you on the camping trip or long hike bring a portable charger okay right now the Bose sound with micro is about three feet away from my mouth and to be honest it's not the worst sounding microphone but it's also not the best there's a good amount of static in the background but again this audio clip is being recorded by the microphone on the Bose Soundlink micro so you can either do that and finally the bose sound like micro can also connect to pulses connect that there's nothing really special you can adjust your settings check your battery status measure bluetooth connection and toggle voice prompts on and off but if you have other Bose sound like speakers you can pair the micro up to them through the app so you can chain them together or get some cereal sound going if you have to sound like micros but overall I didn't expect to like to both sound like micro as much as I did it's super tiny and tough making it perfect for outdoors people looking for a speaker and the strap in the back allows you to attach it to almost anything and quickly will remove it without any hassle since this is a really cool outdoorsy speaker I think it'd have been even cooler is Bose built in an LED flashlight but like I mentioned earlier battery life isn't the best but for a size it sounds very impressive almost as good as the JBL for four but in a much smaller form factor but for one hundred and ten dollars the bose sound like micro is well worth the money hey if you enjoyed the video please like and subscribe it helps out more than you realize for more product reviews and deal alerts check out Jim Carrey that net if you want us to put the channel pick up a shirt and I'll catch you next time
