Bose SoundLink Flex is a waterproof speaker that knows what’s up

By Simon Cohen Published April 21, 2022

Bose has introduced the latest member of its SoundLink family of Bluetooth speakers and headphones, the $149 SoundLink Flex. It’s available starting October 13 at Bose.com and other retailers in three colors: Black, white, or blue.

The SoundLink Flex’s IP67 rating for water and dust resistance makes it a pretty good pool and beach companion, and should it actually go for a kerplunk, it will float back to the surface of the water so you don’t need to grab a mask and snorkel to retrieve it.

But the feature that sets the SoundLink Flex apart from the huge assortment of portable Bluetooth speakers out there is Bose’s claim that it’s the first Bluetooth speaker to know which way it’s oriented, enabling it to adjust its sound accordingly. Bose calls this “PositionIQ,” and it can sense whether the SoundLink Flex is sitting upright on a countertop, lying on its back, or hanging from its built-in fabric loop.

Its battery will last a claimed 12 hours per charge, and it uses the USB-C format for charging. The SoundLink Flex can be stereo paired with a second SoundLink Flex — or any other Bose Bluetooth speaker — or you can connect multiple speakers to play the same content using Party Mode.

It also features Bose’s SimpleSync technology that lets it connect to any Bose soundbar or smart speaker for synchronous playback when at home. The speaker weighs just one pound and has a silicone rubber back panel and powder-coated steel grille to protect its internals from drops or bumps.

Bose also recently introduced the latest model in its QuietComfort series, the $329 QuietComfort 45 noise-canceling headphones, and also announced its first Dolby Atmos soundbar, the $899 Bose Smart Soundbar 900.

Klipsch cranks up the karaoke with its first wireless party speakers

Klipsch Gig XL party speaker with wired microphone.

Klipsch Gig XXL Klipsch

Party speakers -- powerful and often colorfully lit portable Bluetooth loudspeakers -- have been a growing category for several years. In fact, we've seen a lot of the big brands in audio -- like Sony, JBL, and LG -- getting in on the act with a variety of models and prices. But the way you can really tell that this is no longer a flavor-of-the-month trend is that Klipsch is now a player too.

Bluetooth on Sonos’ new Era speakers isn’t what you think – it’s better

Sonos Era 300 close-up of Bluetooth button.

When Sonos recently debuted its two newest wireless speakers -- the Era 100 and Era 300 -- it broke with years of precedence by adding Bluetooth, a connection option that has never been offered on the company’s non-portable speakers. At the time, I thought Bluetooth on an Era speaker worked the same way as it does on the Sonos Move. I was wrong.

It turns out, the Era speakers use Bluetooth in tandem with their Wi-Fi connections, as opposed to the Move, which treats Bluetooth as a completely separate mode. That has some profound implications for what you can do with one of the new Era speakers within a Sonos system, as well as a few caveats about what you can’t do.

Marshall’s latest Bluetooth speaker has four drivers for 360 sound

Marshall Middleton.

The Marshall Middleton ($299) is the company's latest addition to its lineup of guitar amp-inspired Bluetooth speakers, and it's available starting January 31 at marshallheadphones.com. The Middleton, as its name somewhat suggests, sits in the middle of the Marshall portable family -- it shares the same rectangular shape as the Emberton II but is heavier and more powerful than the Stockton II.

What makes the Middleton stand out is its unique quad-driver configuration, which places speakers on all four sides. There are two full-range drivers, each with its own 20-watt amplifier, and two tweeters, powered by a pair of 10-watt amps. The Middleton uses the same "true stereophonic" system as the Emberton II to achieve what the company calls multidirectional, 360-degree stereo sound.
