What was your favorite part about the Flex?
Has to be the loop; looks mighty handy. I own a Mini II and don't intend on upgrading right now, but I appreciated your review.
@@doolhoofd yea i’m with you, the loop is definitely a cool addition. But awesome man hope you’re liking the mini ii and i appreciate you for watching.
Water and dust proof. I used mimi 1 on my bike always worried about rain.
@@davidmorad4405 Absolutely man, the IP67 rating is awesome
favorite part always would be the sound quality
undefeatable......😉
I'm from Nigeria and use it, it's an absolute beast and I hardly use it on full blast except I'm outdoors... It's worth more than the price for me.
The best portable speaker , is not expensive and they give us the best experience.
Finally, someone explains what is wrong with fast charging. I am sick of hearing people praise it. Lithium ion batteries are already bad enough.
I'm from India 🇮🇳, but I bought it from Dubai. It's undoubtedly amazing product for me.....music lover.
Now I'm planning to buy anothersame for stereofonic party sound.
I bought the Bose soundlink flex shortly after it's introduction. It's easy to carry around and sounds way bigger than it looks.
Hell yea glad you like it man!
Nice review and absolutely love the speaker. Sound is amazing, nice portable design and gets surprinsingly loud
I bought one and then realized that you really need two of these speakers to get that incredible Bose stereo sound.
Hell yea Dan. 2 of these will absolutely make the experience even better
Good review ...tech + garphics ...i just got mine yesterday ...,.(iam a "BOSEAPHILE")...so i have to like it 😅😅...
thats a decent set of eyebrows you have there as well😊😊😊
Your reviews are well thought out and time invested, showing real life scenarios in real time.
Potential of the next MrWhoseTheBoss or more 🥳
Great work buddy !!!
I had the soundlink mini one. Loved that speaker, but it recently died. Torn between the mini 2 and flex. Would love to see the two compared against each other.
Absolutely man. I'd love to do a compare video between the two. I'm just waiting to get my hands on the mini 2 then i'll make it happen.
Tried both and in my point of view the mini 2 sounds better
Nick, that was VERY informative!!! I completely LOVE my Flex--& am overjoyed I got a bonus @ work that allowed me to pick this up during Christmas break!!!!😃😃😃
Thanks man! And hell yea love to hear it man glad you like it!🤘🏼
It is that's why my Mom bought one.
We listened to the demo!!!
Mine just arrived really impressed with this
Love to hear it tom!
Nice review! Appreciate the mic test... How did you sound to the person on the other end? Seriously may be my next purchase!
Thanks Kev! It honestly sounded very clear. When i called my buddy the first time i called him without him knowing it was the speaker, and he didn't suspect anything. Definitely recommend in all areas.
@@NickDesjarlais Thank you for the quick response and best of luck with the channel. Fun and helpful review! It's a buy for me :-)
@@kdsewell01 Your welcome, and i really appreciate that man! Glad you're sold on it, and hope it's a fit for you 👍🏻
Excelent Review, very entertaining and amazing editing, keep up with it, probably will buy the Flex also!
Thanks Cesar i appreciate it man! and thats awesome, i hope you like it
Good review. How did it sound from your friends end though when using speakerphone?
Nice review. Fair and honest. Just got one, and I believe it’s worth the $150.
Thank you for saying that! and love to hear it, i'm glad you like it.
Yes is the best
I got this speaker its been awhile since I had the BOSE mini 2. Got a silicon case with shoulder strap incudes a carabiner so you can carry it anywhere
What’s happening Nick? I’m a new subscriber, and was wondering if the Flex just came with a charging cord and if so what kind of charging block would you recommend? Appreciate you Bro and I wish you all the best! #Louisiana #🚀🚀🚀🚀
Whats up my dude. Appreciate the subscribe man, and yes it comes with a charging chord, and i’ll be honest any charging block will work great. Yea a fast charging block will make it charge quicker but i always get worried it will ruin the battery over time. So, what ever block you use should work just fine. Appreciate you man🤘🏼
Thank you 4 d info! I wonder if we can use a USB port to listen to music from the USB flash driver? Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you!
Its been 1 year. Have you had another Flex to pair? And have you experienced audio delay when watching video with them.
Just got mine and I'm glad you pointed out on the battery life. Got mine at Walmart and was thinking of returning it because it only lasted me 4 hours fully charged but I did have it at max volume and kept pressing some buttons quite a bit. For this reason I don't like the fact that it doesn't have a sound that lets me know it's at max volume so I'm always making sure it's at max, but then realized about your pros and made think how that could be another one since it won't ruin your play time as you hear any noise saying it's at max volume so thanks for that also... It's an OCD thing lol
And last but not least important question are products from Walmart and other bigger companies like Best buy or high class areas have anything to do with the product I mean I have this theory that their products might be better quality in other stores or location now I come from a low income neighborhood so as soon as the batter dies in less than 4 hours it had me questioning this but this video gave a sense of relief because this was quite expensive but so worth it. I tried the Marshall Emberton as well but had to return it to try this bad boy it's definitely louder but the Marshalls size and simplicity not to mention the design hard choose. Anyways great video and thanks for pointing out the pros you definitely know how to sell these products for sure.
Are you deaf then ???...what idiot plays it at full volume, pushing buttons etc, let the damn thing play at a lower reasonable volume, Walmart got nothing to do with the volume or the manufacture of the product anyway, they just sell it.
Just ordered one.
The only thing better than a Bose Soundlink Flex is,
2 Bose Soundlink Flex...
Engraved logo on Sony XE200…software update improves performance of Sony XE200 as well…sounds coming from all cloth areas of the Sony as well…much improved…not quite 360° sound…still…very good quality equally no matter where in the room now.
Great video man!
Thanks my dude!
Ordered the blue looking forward to hearing it
Great Video! How does the sound compare to the Soundlink Mini 2 or Color 2
Appreciate it! So i haven’t been able to mess around with the mini 2 much but i have a buddy who has it. I noticed the bass seems to be a lot better on the flex over the mini 2, but maybe in the next video i’ll do a comparison review between the two.
i just purchased the same speaker, and i have tried to place a phone call using an iPhone 13 pro max , it does no go through, once i call it doesn't show me the choices like you show on the video to actually choose the bose speaker ,
Nick. I'd like the Mike to be louder for phone conversations. Any suggestions?
I like the mini with aux for my ipod and the metal case.
Can it just be plugged in all the time?
Love the review but that drop test was a bad joke tho lol Next time try a little thing we all call concrete! 😂
you got me 😂 i did 2 drops on my driveway and didn't like how the footage came out. So instead of hitting a hard surface over and over I just used the dirt.
Bonjour Nick,
Stereo sound, I suppose. Or do you need a second speaker? And how many speakers can you actually drive in the party mode?
Greetings,
Luca
I put a pair of Soundlink Flex in stereo-mode in my living room, HEAVEN! believe me. Worth every penny!
Thanks!
Great review! How does it compare to the SoundLink Revolve?
Thanks James! this is my thought on it. I think the flex has better bass, and seems to have a better control in the aspect of the lows mids and highs. The revolve came out back in 2017 so fast foward 4-5 years, it makes sense that most of their newer speakers will out shine those past models. But besides sound, the flex has better bluetooth connection, it's waterproof, and has all new tech built in whereas the revolve is only water resistant, has slightly weaker bass, and is actually more expensive. I'm not hating on the revolve, it's definitely a great portable speaker, but that's my look on it, when comparing it to the flex. Someone else might think differently.
@@NickDesjarlais thanks for the detailed response!
I hope they release them in Europe soon
@@jameshazzard Yea i wish i knew when, but hopefully it's soon.
I have both. Flex blows revolve away with how warm and full the bass sounds. Better separation of instruments and vocals too.
Nice review!
Thanks!
Good video my man
Thanks bro appreciate it
I have just bought one.. just wow
Can you play it hooked up to the charger?
Yes
Great for outdoor use nice design but sadly no aux input for non Bluetooth devices which my Bose sound link mini 11 has I use this feature with my TV unless you have 100s of pounds to spend on a TV with Bluetooth built-in this Bose flex is not for me
Keith whats up dude, thanks for sharing and great information for anyone else with the same issue. Good luck with everything.
Hi, please could you validate the “may damage your battery” bit please? My understanding was that the benefit of USB C is the ability to use any charger, and I don’t believe Bose themselves advise against it as the device itself should regulate the input ? Thanks !
I'm guessing here. So you may want to verify.
But since the Flex isn't made for fast charging. If you plug it to a fast charging power source, it may fry the battery.
However that said, usually there is a safety mechanism that reduces the fast charging so it doesn't fry the battery, BUT if that mechanism fails, it may damage your Flex. The word "mechanism" is definitely used freely here lol. But you get what I mean.
When is it releasing in India???😭😭😭
WIsh i could tell you bro lol hopefully soon!
great video
Mac, thanks so much dude
I charge as I’m using it.
Can you do Soundcore rave neo
Maybe. I'll definitely take a look into it and check it out
So you dropped it in soft dirt... Why drop it at all??? Drop it on a pillow next, it will provide the same drop resistance outcome.
i have like everyone knows a dave herbert lmao
none aux. plug !?
Where's the first place you're most likely to drop it? A hard, concrete floor or the street. Soft grass doesn't pass my drop test.
Soft grass doesn’t pass my drop test either, but i dropped it on concrete plenty of times before and i didn’t like the shots, so instead of dropping it on concrete over and over, and potentially breaking it, i had to do it on the grass.
@@NickDesjarlais It would look a lot better at around $50 less! LOL!
It was not all the hand waving that's for sure😢
It’s BUTTON ..
2 soundlink flex units both faulty after 3 months use. Flashes 13 times red when plugged in, then goes dead.
Total trash
Bose is not for neophytes, the uninitiated... in short it is an acquired taste.
Less yaking, play music and let people decide. Oh $ 149 is to high for speaker. Jbl is the same, over priced. Bose is just a name. I eant quality.
Rubber material attracts a lot of dust.
👎🏻
Bose costs too much money for what you get. Soundcore is a much better option. Battery life, features ... you can buy an 80 watt Soundcore speaker for 40 dollars less with way more Battery life, more sound and an in app equalizer .
Earth is flat
