Max Power Roar Portable Speaker

The Bose SoundLink Max Portable Speaker is fantastic. The sound quality is superb and lives up to the Bose name and quality. It is sleek, modern, thoughtfully designed with solid build quality, and is super portable with a long battery life, I have spent quite a few hours playing music and haven't had to charge it even once, it does come with a USB-C charging cable and adapter. The Bluetooth connectivity is easy and can be connected quickly to multiple devices simultaneously, the Bose Connect app provides useful customization options. My only issue is the Bass gets a little distorted on max volume. Overall, the SoundLink Max delivers a rich audio experience with stylish design making it a great addition to my collection.

I've been using this speaker for a few weeks now and it's definitely displaced my existing speaker as my go-to for every day listening. Straight out of the box I loved the design. What makes the design unique--and portable--is the removable handle, which gives it a retro, boom box-esque vibe. Note that if you do choose to remove the handle, there aren't any plugs to fill in the handle openings. I was immediately impressed by the speaker's rich sound quality and deep bass. I typically use the Bose Soundlink Revolve II, which I've had for several years now. I live in an apartment and always have music playing. For comparison purposes, the Soundlink Max is definitely more impressive in terms of audio quality, which I would have expected given the price points of the two speakers. The Soundlink Revolve is smaller, lighter, and more portable. The Soundlink Max performs well at louder volumes and is great for outdoor settings; the sound really fills up the space. You can adjust the EQ via the Bose app. Note that the Soundlink Max weighs in at about 5 lbs., which is somewhat hefty. The speaker has a 20-hour battery life as advertised. Bluetooth connectivity was quick and painless. It's also convenient to have the ability to charge my phone with the speaker, although I probably won't use that feature too often. Overall, it's a powerful portable speaker with excellent sound quality and a great design. Highly recommend.

The SoundLink Max portable has been an amazing purchase. The sound quality, depth, and overall audio quality for something that is compact, allows it to be both a portable and at home speaker via Bluetooth. Connection and battery life has both been robust, and I could not recommend this speaker more!

The Bose SoundLink Max is an amazing powerhouse portable speaker to listen to your favorite music everywhere you go! The Max keeps the party going and tunes pumping for hours. The sound is crisp, and clear, and boasts punchy bass and smooth treble. Don't let its size fool you, I was so surprised by the incredible volume range of the Bose Soundlink Max. In fact, on full blast, I could still hear my music clearly from over 250 feet away! One of the most unique things I love about this speaker is was made for adventure. I'm always outdoors, exploring rugged terrain, and adventuring around water. Believe it or not the Max Freaking FLOATS in water!!! How cool is that! I travel full-time as an adventure filmmaker, professional diver, and vanlifer on YouTube! Please Subscribe to see my adventures and say ALOHA! :) The Max is perfect for small spaces like a van or studio apartment. If you're looking for a high-quality, reliable, and durable portable speaker anyone can enjoy, look no further than the Bose Soundlink Max. Bose has created a reputation of bold superior audio quality and the Max achieves that perfectly. Pros: 1. Super crisp audio quality. 2. Blazing fast and easy Bluetooth pairing. 3. Long battery life. 4. Includes a custom setting button set using the Bose App. 5. IP67 Water Resistance Rating. 6. Floats when dropped in water. 7. Customizable listing experience with the Bose App to specifically fine tune your desired EQ. Cons: 1. The price is quite high compared to other portable speakers available in the market. 2. I wish there were more handle and mounting options. 3. Only 2 color options available. It would be awesome to offer a variety of vibrant color options like Neon Teal. 4. No microphone to take phone calls. What’s in the Box? Bose SoundLink Max Portable Speaker USB-C (C to C) cable USB-C power supply (US only. Not available in all regions) Safety sheet

Before even opening the box you are met with gorgeous designs on the box itself that just feel premium. Once you open the box the packaging materials are premium as well. By now the suspense should be killing you to get to the product and when you finally hold the Bose Soundlink Max in your hands you know you chose right! This portable speaker (in my opinion) is the best out there! Pros: the sound/bass that such a small speaker pumps out is BY FAR SUPERIOR than any other speaker I’ve heard. I have two young children at home and this speaker is the perfect companion to inside or outside playtime. I’ve had neighbors ask if I had speakers installed in my backyard because this speaker pumps out which great sound! Another pro is the simple fact that you can remove the handle and replace with a shoulder strap, making this a super portable speaker. I’ve taken the speaker on hikes and it performs all day long is just fantastic. Another pro is the simple fact that the battery in this lasts all day long! Con: this is actually a pro and con. The rubber feeling material on the outside of the speaker attracts dust like a magnet. Like I said I have two young kids at home as well as a dog and you can definitely tell because the speaker picks up dust. However, the pro side to this is that the material is very easy to clean by just wiping off with a damp rag. Final opinion: the price tag is fairly hefty for a portable speaker but it is completely worth it! You’ll pay for 3-4 of a cheaper speaker and all of them together won’t equal the Bose Soundlink Max. So if you enjoy music in any way shape or form this is the portable speaker for you!

Roar... this thing is the king of the jungle

Handy compact solar panel plugs directly into my EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max Portable Power Station. Handy thing to have in a pinch.

Very nice portable speaker. Has a pretty surprising amount of sound power.

I have been looking for an upgrade from the Flip 4, which is a very good portable speaker. The Charge 5 did not disappoint. The extra power and addition of the tweeter really took the music to another level in my opinion. Great frequency range and outstanding bass are what you can expect from JBL. If I had one complaint, it would be no AUX port. Other than that, well worth the money.
