Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Simply put Bose SoundLink Mini II is possibly the best all around portable bluetooth speaker on the market. The speaker has plentiful of features such as ability to work as a speakerphone, charge through USB outlets or on its own cradle, remembering multiple bluetooth devices and pairing to two bluetooth devices at once. Many of the features do not really even matter to me–I'm happy that it pairs to my phone and plays my music with wonderful audio quality. Pairing process was very simple, after selecting language in the beginning the speaker automatically put itself in pairing mode and thus I was able to get music playing in less than 30 seconds from the point of turning it on. There are + and - buttons on the speakers to adjust volume if needed by I personally control volume and music playback through my phone instead. Not that there's something wrong with the buttons, it's just a personal preference. Audio Quality: This speaker is capable of outputting an excellent audio quality throughout the entire frequency spectrum. It doesn't have the bass kick of dedicated subwoofer, but the bass is more than adequate for speaker of this size–the bass is the best compared to all portable speakers I have heard so far. Highs are also extending pretty far and details of the songs can be heard well. Finally, also mid-range comes out without issues and vocals sound awesome. I use the speaker mostly for electronica and modern pop music, latter of which it works perfectly with. Most of electronica sounds great through this speaker as well, but sonically very complex tracks can overwhelm the speaker a bit–still remaining listenable, though. Build Quality: SoundLink Mini II is very heavy for its size and its outer shell and grilles are made out of metallic materials while the buttons are rubberized. As a result, the speaker feels very solid and build quality is excellent.
