"Sounds great. ... this little bose unit sounds great to just chill with on the back porch, not loud enough for the neighbors to hear but it's able to reproduce great sound at moderate levels."
"Nice sounding little speakers in stereo."
"YES, you can crank it to full volume without distortion."

"The mini has been drug all over golf courses and gotten wet countless times."
"I got an older one in 2017, and have used it several times a week ever since, and it still holds up amazingly. ... This past summer I accidentally left it outside overnight. It rained all night. Grabbed it the next day and it still worked perfectly."
"Hangs outside on my front porch in the weather, only sometimes gets charged, and still works great!"

2007Swiftie 1.0Mine died after 8 years of near daily use. I almost placed an order for another Micro 1st version today until realising there's a 2nd gen in the works. Wonder when it'll launch in India, I'd grab the new one right away if I could 😪
2Autistic4DaJoke 1.0I have the first gen of these and they are great. Sound quality is good, fairly durable, good battery life. I mostly use it at home but we take it with us on vacations.
BeachWoo 1.0This is the correct answer.
Beandip_Warrior 1.0I got two first Gen Bose micros for $53 a piece with tax. It was on clearance at Walmart. Nice sounding little speakers in stereo.
D27914 1.0I use this one as well. Surprisingly powerful. Unfortunately mine is micro usb charging, but I still love it.
kiikara 1.0Bose Soundlink Micro. Can play loud, excellent bass response, and easy to connect. https://www.bose.com/p/speakers/bose-soundlink-micro-bluetooth-speaker/SLMC-SPEAKERWIRELESS.html
madman6886 1.0Huge disappointment - have the original for many years primarily strapped to the bike handle bar and taken on occasional camping trips. How am I supposed to answer a phone call during the ride? For something that is marketed towards the cyclists in as much of their promo photos, microphone removal was the stupidest decision ever. My original is still going, but battery capacity has declined and Micro-USB is annoying. Such a disappointment with the new release - I was hoping to buy two for stereo...
Melodic-Army-6776 1.0Yeah, have been looking out for it too. For once the fb algorithms delivered. My original is great.
That's a lot of Taylor swift being played :) Such a great little speaker. Mine's about the same. Am sure it'll be out soon - keep an eye on the deals for the older model, then you'll know they're clearing stock.
skylinenick 1.0I’ve had my first gen for a decade now and it’s still going strong. My favorite Bluetooth speaker ever made
_Spastic_ 1.0I have a first generation that I won 7 years ago at a work thing. It's perfect. I've used it at cookouts, camping and my favorite is strapped to my belt while I do yardwork. It's even small enough to fit in a pocket. I even used it in the shower a few times since it's super water resistant.
