That is why

With Boss continues to expand its scope Soundlink Portless Bluetooth BlitIt has become difficult to choose what is best for you. However, the new for 2025 Soundlink Plus ($ 269, 250 pounds, $ 430 Soundlink Flex (149 dollars, 150 pounds, $ 250), Beefier and Pricier Soundlink Max ($ 399, 400 pounds, $ 600), may be the best in the group, The Goldilocks of Bluetooth boss speakers. Although he cannot play loudly or provides the largest amount of greater brightness, it costs much less and shows a strong voice, a big step of Flex. It attracts the correct balance between performance and price, and he won the CNET editors selection prize in this process.

Weighs 3.3 pounds and measures 9.1 by 3.9 in 3.4 inches (in width, height and depth), it is more than elastic and wider heavy twice as much, but almost the same height. I thought it might also be twice the depth of the flexible, but not completely (3.4 inches compared to 2.1 inches). However, it looks like a more essential amplifier in the hand while it is easier to endure more than Soundlink Max 4.7 lb, even with the removable cord handle of this model (Soundlink Plus contains a “rugged use rope loop” on its part).

The image enlargement

Soundlink Plus has similar features for Soundlink Max, providing USB-C charging abroad and up to 20 hours of battery life at moderate volume levels. MAX has help inputs while Plus does not. They are both dust resistant and waterproof, as well as Flex and $ 130 Soundlink Micro (2nd Gen), which is scheduled to come out in late August and is upgraded with the improvement of sound and USB-C charging. Unlike Flex, Soundlink Plus does not have a built -in microphone, so it is missing the possibilities of the amplifier, which is very bad.

The Bose Companion app contains the equal settings that allow you to modify the speaker sound file and customize the shortcut button at the top of the sound amplifier to either connect the second Bose amplifier or create a quick link to Spotify, which allows you to easily resume the service.

Note that this is a single speaker and get a real stretch separation, you will have to connect Soundlink Plus in the left -right Stereo position. You can also associate with modern Soundlink loudspeakers at parties to increase sound to cover more space. She tested Stereo’s mode with two Soundlink flexible amplifiers, and the sound has improved significantly. But I only got the Soundlink Plus review sample, so I couldn’t test the staple. However, based on what I heard from a pair of flexible loudspeakers, I think the liberation and left left audio narrowing are in addition to the editing and sterio narration will be impressive if you can buy two of these men.

Comparison Soundlink Plus with competition

I evaluated Soundlink Plus for a few hours on its own, and has performed well with the majority of the test paths that I gave it, although it really sparkles with well recorded materials and did not seem limited in higher sizes like some of the mini loudspeakers that I tested. To avoid distortion, the digital treatment of many mobile speakers ends in cutting some frequencies, especially in the low end. For the largest part, this did not happen here, and the speaker’s voice was well photographed with minimal distortion in higher sizes. However, from time to time, I face a path that the amplifier did not deal with everything very agile, to remind me that he is still compressed.

After comparing it with Soundlink Flex and Soundlink Max, then she incited him against a few Bluetooth loudspeakers, including JBL CHARGE 6and Sony Ult 3 and Ult 5 and LG XBOOM bounces. All of these speakers except Sony Olt 5 Little list is just less than this Bose (however, Ult 5 appears to be not sold regularly for $ 250). But they are all models on my radar if I am thinking about Soundlink Plus.

Although the differences were not huge-they are all good chest Bluetooth speakers-Soundlink Plus, superior to all these speakers except ULT 5, which is much larger and plays with a little higher and produces more brightness. Compared to JBL 6, Soundlink Plus looks more widely with Soundstage. The same applies to Sony Olt 3Which does not produce much of the broiler like Bose, even with the fully promoting ult. In the face of LG XBOOM, I felt that Bose Tonal balance was a little better, as Bose had a slightly medium medium performance.

You can find the best The value of louds – I still love Boom SoundCore from ANKER 2Which costs about $ 120 or slightly less during flash sales – but Bose has a richer and more accurate sound with better clarity and Slicker design. Other costly costly brands, such as TribitAlso, having loud loudspeakers look great for the price. But it can be generally appearance and does not look good like this Bose when comparing models of similar size.

Is Bose Soundlink Plus worth all this effort?

Soundlink Flex and Soundlink Max very good speakers (I love too Soundlink HomeBut it is not rugged and is mainly designed for internal use). The Flex produce a greater and more sound sound than you expect its built -in size, and it is reasonably priced, especially when it is discount intermittently. Soundlink Max also plays larger than its size and competes well with loudspeakers similar to Bluetooth Boombox.

On the other hand, both models have a few strikes against them. Flex sound contains its restrictions – the speaker can only produce a lot of brightness and size – and Soundlink Max a little heavy. Soundlink Plus is not cheap at 269 dollars, but it divides the difference between Flex and Max, which gives you a more richer and richer sound than flexible while raising 1.4 pounds from the maximum (and $ 130 from the MAX menu price). The perfect Bluetooth amplifier may not be for everyone, but it should reach a sweet spot for many people, especially when its price decreases slightly during flash sales.
