Deal | Bose SoundLink Micro portable speaker (2nd Gen) gets substantial $49.01 price cut

The Black Bose SoundLink Micro Portable Speaker (2nd Gen) is near its lowest price ever following a 38-percent discount off its $129 MSRP, for a savings of $49.01.

SoundLink portable speakers offer Bluetooth wireless connectivity to audio sources. Two units can be paired for stereo output. The battery is rated for up to 12 hours of runtime and charges in 3.0 hours, says Bose. A flexible utility strap allows the speaker to be attached to backpacks or bicycles for outings.

The speaker incorporates Bose sound technology to create sound with a "balanced mid-range" that "represents voices accurately", according to Rtings, which is ideal for listening to podcasts in small rooms.

As a con, its compact size means larger portable speakers from Bose offer better music reproduction and sound coverage of large spaces, according to Rtings reviews. The petite Bose SoundLink Micro is rated 6.4 for music, whereas the larger Bose SoundLink Max (also available on Amazon for $329) is rated 7.4. Also, the SoundLink Micro is a poor choice for work-from-home employees because it lacks a microphone for online meetings.
