Great sound quality for a portable speaker! Way better than the Jawbone we had before. A little pricey, but with the Target Redcard discount, this was the cheapest place I found.

Introduction – The first Soundlink Mini was quite an important product in the portable Bluetooth speaker landscape, it was one of the first speakers to use two opposing passive radiators and also one of the first to produce a proper bass response.
Premium design; Smart electronics; Bass extension and slam; Treble is quite good for a portable speaker; Max volume output
Heavy; Midrange is a bit thin; Not waterproof and doesn`t support AptX
The SoundLink Mini II is a compact and lightweight speaker (it's only about 15 square inches and weighs one pound) with powerful sound output. It is simple to use, with extremely intuitive controls that allow you to change the music directly from the speaker.
Very intuitive and easy-to-use controls; Can play; pause and change the volume and track using on-speaker buttons; Speaks the name of the device it connects to; Automatically switches to AUX mode when a device is connect via cable; Can pair with two devices at same time and quickly switch between...
Poor battery life when tested at maximum volume
The first version of the SoundLink Mini bluetooth speaker was a big hit worldwide. Now that Bose have released a new version, the SoundLink Mini
Good sound
No aptX
It's been a couple of years since Bose released the SoundLink Mini ( at Amazon) , a portable Bluetooth speaker that seriously impressed us with its smart design, features, and big sound. The updated SoundLink Mini II is priced the same ($199.95), and looks quite similar in terms of size and design layout. New features include improved battery life and speakerphone functionality, but the main attraction remains an uncanny ability to produce convincing bass from its tiny frame. It may not sound like a subwoofer is involved, but this speaker can muster enough low end that, at times, you'll ponder its size in minor disbelief. Portable Bluetooth speakers have a long way to go before audiophiles and purists hop onboard, but for those looking for a powerful, clean audio experience from a tiny speaker, the SoundLink Mini II earns our Editors' Choice award. DesignThe SoundLink Mini II ($170.00 at Amazon) replaces the SoundLink Mini. Like the original, the speaker is easily portable in ter...
The tiny Bose SoundLink Mini II delivers the richest bass you'll find in a portable Bluetooth speaker this size, while managing to stay balanced with crisp highs.
Powerful audio performance with surprising bass response for its size; Well designed; Built-in speakerphone; Can connect to two Bluetooth devices simultaneously
Digital signal processing changes bass response at different volume levels; Deceptively heavy; Aux audio cable isn't included
What's the best product Bose has ever made? That's hard to say, but a case can be made for the SoundLink Mini , the company's 2013 compact Bluetooth speaker that features impressive build quality and sound for its size and isn't too outrageously priced at $200 (£170 and AU$299).
Bose SoundLink Mini II remains one the few standout products in the ultracompact wireless speaker category, featuring a top-notch design and very good sound for its tiny size.
The Bose SoundLink Mini II is a very sleek, compact wireless Bluetooth speaker that sounds great for its small size. It also has excellent build quality with a unibody aluminum enclosure, and it includes a charging cradle that you can leave plugged in.
There's no real stereo separation, and you can't pair two speakers together.
The Bose SoundLink Mini II isn't a giant leap forward, but it's enough that there is no reason to buy the older model anymore.
Great build quality; More features & better battery life than the original; Big sound for the small size
Bose missed an opportunity in not allowing for stereo pairing; Looks almost too similar to the original
The Bose SoundLink Mini II is a small Bluetooth speaker. It isn't small enough that you'll carry it with you every day, and you're definitely not going to fit it in a pocket. However, it's about as small as a speaker can get without compromising on sound quality.
Power and refinement from a tiny box; Great charge dock
No aptX or NFC; Cheaper alternatives are available
There are lots of Bluetooth speakers out there, but all compromise in one way or another - they're too big, have terrible battery life, or just don't sound very good . It's refreshing, then, when there's a viable alternative, even if you have to pay a bit more to get it.
Surprisingly solid bass; great detail; voice prompts; The sturdiest portable Bluetooth speaker you can buy; Includes charging cradle; international power
More expensive than its similarly-sized competitors; No stereo pairing between two or more speakers; No real stereo separation
The Bose SoundLink Mini II is showing its age with its average battery life and lack of features like NFC and waterproofing. However, it remains one of the best sounding wireless speakers on the market.
Stellar sound; Built like a tank; Compact form factor
No NFC or multipoint Bluetooth; Not water resistant; Average battery life
