Not only is it cool and colorful and easy to use, but our testers report that it provides sound quality that compares favorably with that of larger and more expensive speakers.
Our testers detect a slight metallic distortion in the midrange, but they also give the model high marks for the large and intuitive controls atop the device. Its edge lies primarily in volume and bass. Who should buy it: A consumer with a big room, a sense of style, and not much price sensitivity. The large and intuitive controls atop the speaker are another plus.
Who should buy it: A style-conscious, value-conscious consumer looking for a speaker that can move easily from room to room. The tiny SoundLink Micro is cute, hyper-portable, and comes with a strap that allows you to lash it to a bicycle, backpack, or stroller. Who should buy it: A podcast-loving fan of tiny speakers. I believe that technology has the power to change our lives—for better or for worse. For me, there's no better way to spend a day than talking to a bunch of experts about an important subject and then writing a story that'll help others be smarter and better informed.

Bose has also added support for Amazon Alexa voice commands. Compared to a Sonos system, you might find Bose's control app a bit fiddly but this is a well-equipped and accomplished wireless speaker. Pitched between the smaller SoundTouch 10, and bigger SoundTouch 30, this compact offering delivers solid, insightful midrange performance. It's not shy when it comes to bass, either.
Controls are simple, with six presets offering convenient, one-touch access to your favourite music. There are better standalone Bluetooth speakers , but if you have your heart set on a Bose multi-room system, the SoundTouch 20 represents good value for money. Not the best for a classic, quality, hi-fi-type sound but the Bose Home Speaker will certainly add some beef to your listening. Part of the wider Bose smart speaker family, it's voice-enabled through both Alexa and Google Assistant and can be used as a unit of a Bose multi-room set-up too.
It also supports AirPlay 2. Sound-wise, you're looking at a mono system here through a single, full-range driver which fires downwards into an acoustic deflector to spread sound degrees from its ovular chassis. It definitely gives an even and impressively weighty performance that will please many but, if you're after something sonically more refined, this may not be the smart speaker for you.

As such, it gets challenging to compare Bose with other speakers based on specifications.
According to critics, Bose is not transparent and this causes distrust. Some people also wonder why they should buy a product they are not sure what it is made of. Although Bose is in its own audio quality category, there are other audio device companies that produce high quality speakers at a lower price.
You will pay top dollar to get a Bose speaker. However, if music is part of your lifestyle, you will feel that every dollar is worth it. Thanks to the high quality audio, you will feel like you are now an audiophile, but in real sense, all you do is enjoy good music. Bose uses celebrities to market its products. This way, when a consumer buys Bose, they feel like they have gone up a class, and they understand music better. This is one of the reasons why most audiophiles hate Bose.
Bose is popular for their noise-cancelling technology, and they care less what audiophiles have to say about their speakers. The number of their customers increase as the popularity of their speakers goes up. Bose offers more than Bluetooth speakers. They have a wide selection of other audio devices, and they observe the same high standards of production as in the speakers.
You will find very small Bose speakers that have high quality and loud sound and large speakers from other brands with the same or poorer quality sound. One of the earliest technologies from the company was direct reflecting. This technology sought to create an experience like the one in a concert hall. According to its proponents, most of the sound one hears in a concert hall is from reflection from walls. They created the speakers to create that hall-like sound and the consumers loved them.
The company then wanted to create a single driver size instead of several speakers, including woofers, tweeters, and midrange speakers. Today, Bose is synonymous with noise cancelling technology. Their speakers produce high quality audio with no distortion even at maximum volume.
They continue to innovate to bring more technologies. Are the speakers worth the money? It depends on the quality of sound you want to listen to. If you are looking for a splendid listening experience, then Bose is the company you need to go for. However, if you do not realize the audio difference between Bose and other speakers, then avoid the high price tag. There hasn't been an infomercial or cool gadget that I haven't at least thought about buying and trying.
Let's just say my old nickname of "Go-Go Gadgets" was well earned. When I first got my iPhone there was a headphone jack available for plug-in headphones. However, as the iPhone evolved that headphone jack was lost, which led to my investment in Bluetooth
