The Bose SoundLink Micro Bluetooth Speaker is pocket-sized and able to play and produce richer and louder sound than competing micro wireless speakers. It’s fully waterproof, has a built-in microphone for speakerphone calls, plus an integrated strap for clipping the speaker onto a bag or other objects.
Due to its compact size and the quality of sound it produces, it is perfect for travelling. We connect it to our phone or tablet when at the beach, in our hotel room or while lying by the pool. We definitely recommend the Bose SoundLink Micro Bluetooth Speaker to anyone who needs a portable speaker.
