Bose SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) drops below $90 for the first time
Nov 13, 2026 — 12:31 PM ET
The Bose SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) has dropped to $89 on Amazon in Blue Dusk. That’s $60 (40%) off its $149 list price and a new all-time low, beating its previous best price by $10.
We reviewed the SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) last year, and it’s still one of the easiest speakers to recommend at this size. Bose kept the compact, silicone-wrapped design of the original, which is drop, shock, and rust resistant, and added a few smart upgrades on top.
The biggest of those is PositionIQ, which senses whether the speaker is standing up, lying flat, or hanging from its utility loop and adjusts the sound to match. There’s also a new shortcut button that you can set in the Bose app to open Spotify or your phone’s voice assistant, and the app has an EQ for tweaking the sound. Android listeners with compatible Snapdragon Sound phones can stream over aptX, alongside AAC.
The IP67 rating means the SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) shrugs off dust, rain, and splashes, and it even floats if it ends up in the pool. Battery life is rated at up to 12 hours, it charges over USB-C, and Bluetooth 5.3 keeps a stable connection up to 30 feet away. If you have another compatible Bose speaker, you can pair them in Party Mode or Stereo Mode for bigger sound.
It holds a 4.7 star rating from nearly 14,000 reviews on Amazon. Only the Blue Dusk color is at this price.
