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 Love it I purchased this speaker 3 weeks ago and I just love the sound from it and the travel size. It can go where I go with no problem. The sound is amazing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Versatile Really get a great sound and experience using this. I started using it in my office, then would grab it and go to use when at a different location. Now it sits in the shower. It's very versatile. I had a very old SoundLink as well and always loved it. After 10 years, it still has good battery life when disconnected from a power source. I really have nothing negative to say about this. It's a great speaker for the price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Same power and fidelity of a great big rig. I got one that I chose to name Pint Size Party from a list of suggestions on the App. It was on sale, enabling me to get it. Then Bose emailed another sale offer I didn't refuse.I named that slightly darker colored honey baby Midnight Mood. They are linked up in stereo mode and controlled from my phone that also is Bluetoothing in Pink Floyd. The stereo effect is being tested using the benchmark. These babies are killing it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I refused to settle for off-brand junk I've been wanting a quality battery powered Bluetooth speaker for a long time.I have a prince's taste on a pauper's budget, so I resisted buying on the low end and just settling for that. I'm so glad that Bose put this product on sale when I could manage the purchase. Since it is a Bose, I expected to be impressed by this product, and I was not disappointed. Maybe next month I can get another one to pair with it for the stereo.
