Multipoint is a Bluetooth technology that allows your SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) to maintain a connection to two paired source devices at the same time. Your speaker will seamlessly transition between the two devices, so you’re always connected to the active source device.

Shortcuts allow you to configure settings for the programmable shortcut button on SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen). You can manage your shortcut in the Bose App. Out of the box, the factory default shortcut is set to linking, allowing you to use the button to link two compatible Bose speakers without the app.

You can change your shortcut button to be connected to your Spotify account to begin music at the press of a button, access your Voice Assistant, or other options that may become available with future firmware updates through the Bose App.

Yes. Using Bose SimpleSync technology, you can connect to your SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) from a SimpleSync-enabled Bose smart soundbar or Bose smart speaker to extend the reach of your listening to other places in the vicinity, such as an adjacent room. You can manage SimpleSync in the Bose App.

Yes, when there is an incoming call, pressing the play/pause button will answer the call and double pressing the play/pause button will decline a call. Double press the play/pause button while in a call to end it.

Yes, SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) floats, but is not designed to be used while in water. SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) is designed to withstand accidental drops in water for up to 30 minutes. If SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) is directly exposed to salt or chlorinated water, rinse with fresh water and allow to dry thoroughly before use.

If debris gets into the charging port or other parts of SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen), gently rinse with fresh water or compressed air. Be sure charging ports are thoroughly dry before charging. For the larger exterior surfaces, wipe clean with a soft cloth. Avoid using cleaning detergents and let the speaker dry completely before operating.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent! Great sound and features. After my wife threw a fit about using my speaker, I let her and she dropped it. I replaced the dropped one with a new Bose. In the end, I like the speaker better than her.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Sound at a Great Price I choose this over another product for the reliability and sound quality. I have Bose ear buds so why not a portable speaker. The speaker has a deep rich and distinguishable sound. Its small enough not to take up space, but the sound travels, covering large area without sounding distorted. For the price, it's a nice value.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A New Experience I bought this to replace my Bose Radio sound that can only play CD’s and doesn’t have Bluetooth. Lately, the CD player on the top of the radio ceased to function. I also have a Bose Sound Dock that I have to use Bluetooth device in conjunction with the unit. This unit is large and not that portable. This new device links up well my iPhone and iPad which plays my music on each device. It charges up fast and it is very portable. It also takes my phone calls or lets me know when my phone rings.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bose never disappoints! This speaker is wonderful! I'm now saving up for a 2nd speaker so I can listen to my music in stereo! My thanks to the audio engineers at Bose.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 2nd generation I purchased two Bose 2nd generation speakers and I love them. Money well spent I will recommend Bose speakers to anyone. The sound and the quality is great I’m happy that I could find a good quality speaker these days.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bose is top notch for quality and superior sound This speaker is of the superior quality and sound one expects from Bose. We used Bose speakers at Tower Records, my wife has the headphones, and my family, friends and I all loved the Wave Radio, still use them!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from What a powerful little nugget. We purchased this speaker as our go-to mobile speaker, especially for outdoors. I was nervous about the compact size, but it is extremely loud, although it does have a range in which it would be considered loud, so in a 12x15’ room or outdoor area, it is audible, clear, and vibrant. I do like how you can connect multiple Bose speakers through the app as well if you need more volume, which also creates a surround sound effect. But if it’s just you and your friends outside or at the beach, one is enough. The texture and material have a squishy silicone feel, and it seems very durable. I’m pleased since I ordered it in the yellow, and I do think it’ll outmatch a spill/or dirt.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great sound from a small portable speaker! It has been several years since I bought a Bose CD/ radio player and still enjoy the great sound from that system. I wanted to get a portable speaker for music downloaded on my I-Phone. I am so happy I stayed with Bose sound systems. I am loving the great sound from the SoundLink!
