The verdict

The Bose SoundLink Micro (2nd Gen) finally gets some much-needed updates, bringing it in line with the rest of Bose’s portable speaker lineup. With improved durability, USB-C charging (at last), and noticeably better sound, the Micro (2nd Gen) sets the standard for palm-sized performance, making the premium price a little easier to swallow. Just don’t expect it to last all day.

✓Liked: IP67, Improved sound quality, New removable strap attachment

✕Could be better: Limited EQ options, No more microphone, Battery life

Nobody who owns the Bose SoundLink Micro has written in yet.

Owner reviews are not paid for, not solicited from specific owners, and not rewritten by us: at most we proofread typos, which is shown on the review’s own page and which the author can undo. The commission SoundGuys may earn on this page comes from retail links, never from owner reviews.
