This looks absolutely amazing! Better than flex. I don’t know what modern style did to humans, they don’t care about classic designs and call them outdated!
I have the Flex and just got a pair of these last week while they had an Early Black Friday discount. The bass is slightly more defined and the soundstage in stereo mode is wider on the Soundlink Home. They might get a tiny bit louder too. Finally they look light years better even if there's no outdoor resistance to any type of dust or water. I am going to keep them.
I get it, I have the flex but never like how it look like cheap plastic in my home decor. Glad bose made the soundlink home as it will look better in my home decor, thanks bose
The design is impressive-miles ahead of the SoundLink Flex. The Flex has a rather unattractive design, whereas this model looks so much more stylish that the two aren’t even comparable. I’d be more than happy to have a couple of these permanently on display at home, unlike the Flex. The lack of app support isn’t a major drawback. If I can stream from a Volumio node to a pair of these in stereo mode, I can seamlessly integrate them into my existing setup without any hassle. Well done Bose, I hope this becomes the Bose design language for most of their range.
@@cunawarit - I get it, this new Bose SL Home is better looking than the Flex and has a much more premium upscale look to it. I bought the original SL Flex about 2 years ago in Stonewood Blue. I like how durable the speaker is and I've always liked that color. I also own the 1st Gen Marshall Emberton in gold and black as well. Many people don't care for the look of Marshall speakers, I really like the distinctive and unusual appearance. I tend to go for the different and non-conventional. I also own a pair of Harman Kardon Soundsticks II from about 15 years ago, that is one of my all time favorite speaker systems and it still works great. People walk into the house and many times they ask what the weird looking SS are. It's great to see their reactions to them. And no, am not a 22 year old with blue hair, and massive nose piercing. And there's nothing wrong with that by any means.
@edcipriani8873 I'm with you on the Marshall's look, I love it! I also understand that they are not for everyone, I showed one of my kids the Marshall range, and they insisted they would rather have a Flex. I also like unconventional looking speakers, and I'm not pink haired or pierced. I'm, in fact, middle-aged and pretty average looking. Cambridge Minx 22s, I love those weird little speakers!
@@cunawarit - Holy crap I just looked up the Cambridge Minx speakers, those are so friggin' cool! Did I mention that the better half keeps telling me that I do not need to buy any more BT or wired speakers? He's such a damn buzzkill!
I love the design. Ur trippin. The sound is very crisp. Sounds better than the flex IMO. Of course its not waterproof. Its made for the house and designed with fabric. Its not being lazy. Its abour the nice design. I personally dont need all the gimmicks. I dont throw my speakers in water. I dont need kiddie lights. Its a beautiful design, now let the copy cats begin.
Hey, you could learn a lot from old people. I prefer "Chronologically Superior" versus old. I'd rather be categorized as Old than Young and doesn't have a clue - and buy some JBL junk that has over-exaggerated bass which tries to compensate for harsh highs and muddling mids. Or young and foolish - and continuously buy Beats products because of their marketing and brand association, not realizing that Beats are overpriced and overhyped.
Should have added wifi. Never should have stopped the in home smart speakers. Them discontinuing them and making them work bt onlu is why i never bought a smart spesker from them. They wondee why they dont sell well. Hopefully this ks a start to in home again

Such a beautiful speaker
The first beautiful looking Bluetooth speaker ins Years
Bose started getting lazy when they stopped making big speakers for the home.
Don't get me started on Bose.
FANTASTIC speaker, way better than the FLEX, IMO!

The Soundlink Home is more stylish and far better looking than the Flex. It's not even close.

It's a matter of opinion, I prefer the look of the Flex / Flex 2 over this. We go with what works for us.
@edcipriani8873 I love our new Flex 2, but it's an ugly duckling. Perfect for camping, a tool to listen to but not look at.

His assessment is accurate! It was a waste of money 😢
*Love it!!! 👌🏼* Though the *SoundLink Flex* (a fvckin’ monster in its own right) looks more sturdy in build.
Will there be an firmware update to make it better - If they could drop the price to $129.
Can you review edifier speakers ??
At least it’s pretty. But that’s about all the effort they seemed to put into this product 🤣
Be positive
That's all I needed to know. As always, without water..
The only people that are legit to comment about the sound are the sound enginneers , i think
At some point bose does things like apple, they never make everything you like but know how to make it better
Looks like the klipsch gig....i had like ten yrs ago

@@ericmartinez4897 I respect your rebuttle! If you like it good!
@@DannyPops love ur work Danny!👍
I don't throw my speakers in water but being for the home it would be nice in a kitchen if waterproof
CLASSIC
The soundlink flex sounds better than this. The sound was muffled on this speaker. I sent it back
The Home feels and looks very old already
lol thats how i feel too!
Lame... But old people will probably like it. Old people LOVE Bose.
my dad LOVES bose. he is old.
bende seviyorum yaşlı mıyım acaba😂

Hi Danny, it’s not worth buying then, when it comes out in England.😮😮
Lazy product drop by Bose imo
Grandmas will buy it
It looks like there are only one active mono speaker and maybe one passive. It's not good.

Bose is really over rated as well as who needs a USB to play songs from a laptop?
i ve already ignore this brand for a long time
Yea because you don't look at the right products.
@@shoerice5083 Bose sucks, way overrated, overpriced, and not even close to compared to a real Hi-Fi Audiophile level speaker.
Bose SUCKS. Overrated and overpriced.
Ugly speakers.
Looks like a cheap led light projector.
