Bose Portable Home Speaker with Alexa Voice Control Built-in (Wi-Fi, Wireless, Bluetooth Connectivity) - Luxe Silver

Best sound quality and works flawlessly with Alexa to run both Amazon Music and Spotify simultaneously.

First of all,to understand my rating read till lastAwesomeness- 1.sound with bass2.Mobile application to Control and setup3.Portability4. Sound clarity5. Connectivity (to primary device)6. Voice is clear even at max volumeDownside-1. Too too expensive. Jbl and many other speakers are available for almost 1/3-1/2 the price of this,with nearly similar sound effect (they can't match bose). Even though I got it in deal at an unbelievable prices (20k),but even then it's costly2. uneasy connecting other devices. If you want to connect next device with Bluetooth,either disconnect the first one,or use primary device "bose music"app to do that. Since it is Bluetooth 5.0,simultaneously connecting multiple devices should be an ease. ( More over,Sony has a method of connecting,wherein when you attempt to connect new device,the previous one automatically disconnects)3. Major flaw -alexa. It becomes unresponsive after Turning off the device for overnight or more. When called customer care regarding this,they said -ITS FLAW WITH SOFTWARE🙄4. The bass. Actually this is first bose device. I paid a hefty amount for it,as I had a Divine sound kind of picture in my mind. But the bass was great,but just fell short of expectations. Bass is crunchy and feels some lacking power. I already have a F&D tower speakers (powered) almost 1/3rd price of this,but everytime it begins with bose and ends with F&D 😅5. There is some vibrating sound in most of songs at high volume. I can't make out the issue. But doesn't feel good in such a productBut ultimately its awesome except price tag

Amazing sound , you can adjust bass treble through bose app.. don't buy revolve models as clarity wise this is much much better than revolve .. its clarity bass treble vocals are just amazing.. I have companion 5 and this one comes close to it. Only draw back is battery life could have been better..but it's OK good sound consumes power... you won't like another bluetooth speaker if you heat this once.. I generally don't write reviews but doing this because I'm music lover and want people to pick up best

Device has issue with wifi and still nit resolved post multiple attempts, quality is also average which is below as per expectation. Overall wastage of money

I own 4 Bose systems prior to buying portable home speaker.Honestly before buying this I was not very sure about how it will sound due to its small size .My previous Bose spekars like, wave system, sound touch 30 are bigger in size as compared to this speaker.When I turned it on for first time I was totally shocked to see how this small speaker can sound like big music system with high quality sound .It's a magical speaker and totally worth it .The bass it can produce will surprise you.Just keep it in corner of room for more deep bass.The battery backup is good , It lasts for around 10 hours continuous use.It sounds great for movie audio when paired with TV over bluetooth.When I played movie over it infront of friends they thought that it's playing on home theatre untill I told them that it's not. It sounds great in movie but it can not produce home theatre like surrounded sound. It can act as your emergency home theatre.It sounded great in open space picnic area.Note that in open space bass will be lesser as compared to room. But still it sounds magically great than any other bluetooth speaker available in market.Hack: in room if you want further more bass then keep it on empty wooden box and enjoy booming deep bass.

The media could not be loaded. I was eyeing this bose Bluetooth speaker since a long time but couldn’t purchase it as it was priced at 40K. But recently in the month of June 2024, prices dropped to 29K with Amazon pay offer of around 4K off which brought the prices down significantly and immediately decided to buy it. The sound quality is amazing with true bass and crystal clear pitch. The build quality is great and it requires bose app to setup for either android or Apple phones. Apple has additional airplay option which is a boon as well. I was unaware of the Alexa feature which is better suited with either Spotify or Amazon music. It reacted sluggishly to voice commands and felt little rough. The battery backup is roughly around 9hrs for full charge. Charging takes around 2hrs from 50pc to 100pc. Alexa the next day became unresponsive and never responded to my queries. It always gives orange light when invoked. Third day, the speaker was completely unresponsive so thought of returning it but as there is no replacement available, tried manual troubleshooting. You have to long press play/pause button to reset it and it came back to life. Alexa too was responsive again. But it Alexa does again every time and it has to be reset again. This is a major flaw so please don’t buy it for its smart speaker feature. The sound quality is great though and it does the job of connectivity as well. I would recommend going for another speaker and not to risk your money with this one.

Cons :No Google assistant in India ..Only AlexaSpotify drops connection intermittentlyPros :Vgood sound quality & excellent from portability point of view..yiu can just carry it inns bag :)Volume @ 80% sufficient for an spacious 2bhk houseGood battery life 6hrs+ audio @ 70%App based controls helps ..Smart TV, Mobile device connectivity is good too.I thought of buying a Marshal Tufton..which I think is its closest competitor in Indian market (availability & repairs perspective) ...but this one costed me 28k.....thatz 12k+ cheaper...i can buy a Bose Soundlink II
