its ipx7 rating singing in the shower has never been easier as far as the sound goes this little speaker has impressive base for its size it doesn't offer the sound quality of Bose as larger more expensive bluetooth speakers but it delivers significantly more bass and volume than other pocketable speakers the Soundlink micro also has a built in microphone for speaker phone calls but there are noticeable latency issues where the audio may lag behind the video with a one-second delay the same goes for skipping tracks or using voice commands this isn't a deal breaker but can be annoying at times the six hours of playback time is a bit short but on the flip side the Soundlink micro can simultaneously play
music while charging this isn't ideal but it's an acceptable compromise that helps to offset the shorter battery time if you're after maximum portability the well-built and travel-friendly Bose Soundlink micro is arguably the best sounding Bluetooth speaker in its tiny size class making it a solid purchase that you cannot go wrong with alright guys subscribing we our best to keep you up to date with the best products on the market with us.
