Product details
The SoundLink Flex Bluetooth Speaker is designed for clear, deep sound that is powerful enough to fill a room and loud enough for all outdoor adventures. Regardless of its orientation, the PositionIQ technology optimizes sound quality. The SoundLink Flex impresses with its sleek and appealing design that combines durability, portability, and functionality. With its silicone housing, powder-coated steel grille, and reliable, practical loop, the SoundLink Flex accompanies you everywhere. Whether hiking, camping, paddling, or even in the shower or at sunset on the terrace, your music is always with you. Its extremely durable materials withstand the elements and are unshaken by drops and bumps. The practical loop can be attached to a clasp or carabiner, allowing it to be hung almost anywhere. The speaker has also been thoroughly tested and meets the IP67 protection rating, meaning it is dust and waterproof and continues to play music even if it falls into water or is exposed to rain. The SoundLink Flex also features a long battery life with up to twelve hours of wireless playback per charge. For an even more impressive sound, the SoundLink Flex can connect with another Bose Bluetooth speaker or be grouped with a Bose Smart Speaker to extend your listening experience from indoors to outdoors. Available in black, white, or blue.

Overall ratingGood76/100
- Class sound
- Simple operation on the device
- long battery life
- No sound adjustments via app
The Bose loudspeaker rightly bears the addition "Flex" in its name, because it can be used flexibly: well protected against dust and water, standing, lying down or suspended from the loop. However, the equipment only includes the bare essentials. But the most important thing is that the little one packs a real punch...
There is something for every taste and budget in the test field. If you want to invest a little more and also want to fill your own four walls with music, the best choice is the test winner from Sonos. Connected to your home Wi-Fi, the compact speaker also functions as a smart Alexa speaker and connects to other Sonos speakers...

You'll be well equipped for your next picnic with the Bose Soundlink Flex. Not only is the Bluetooth speaker waterproof and dustproof, with its effective sound it can make itself heard effectively, especially outdoors. The workmanship and design are high-quality but simple and the operation leaves nothing to be desired except for sound adjustment...
Good68/100
A powerful bass, clearly audible details and a balanced, lively sound - that's what the perfect Bluetooth speaker should sound like. However, good sound quality is not everything: to become a test winner, a speaker should ideally also be easy to use, have a long-lasting battery and offer practical additional functions...
- Great sound
- Explanations in the app
- long battery life
- A little quiet
- without additional inputs & tone control
The Bose Soundlink Flex not only looks chic and valuable, it also offers a pleasantly warm sound. However, the bass sometimes wants a bit much. This cannot be changed in the accompanying app, in which Bose explains the controls wonderfully with small animations. With a little distance to walls and outdoors, the sound is great. The low weight and long battery life are also fun.
