With the "SoundLink Plus", Bose aims to combine sound quality, mobility and durability in one device. It offers Bluetooth 5.4 with Multipoint as well as a USB-C charging function for use as a power bank and supports aptX Adaptive.
You're out with your friends or family in the park or at the lake and don't want to miss out on music. Then the new portable boom box «SoundLink Plus» from Bose might be of interest to you. You can pre-order the device now. It will be delivered from 26 June.
Sound image and functions
A subwoofer, a tweeter and four passive radiators work inside the speaker. Bose does not provide any information on the frequency response, but promises a balanced sound with powerful bass, clear treble and high volume. Two devices can be paired for more sound: either in stereo mode with left and right channel distribution or in party mode, in which both speakers reproduce identically.
Control is via the Bose app. There you can adjust the sound with an EQ, install firmware updates, set shortcuts such as Spotify Tap or check the battery status. The codecs SBC, AAC and aptX Adaptive are supported.
The integrated 4500 mAh lithium-ion battery provides up to 20 hours of battery life, according to the manufacturer. The charging time is around five hours, provided a 15 W USB-C power adapter is used. The USB-C port can also be used as a power bank for external devices.
Connectivity, protection and housing
The boombox supports Bluetooth 5.4 with multipoint function. This allows two source devices to be connected simultaneously. The maximum range is around nine metres.
The housing is IP67-certified and therefore dust and waterproof. According to the manufacturer, the speaker is also shockproof, rust-resistant and floatable. According to Bose, a powder-coated steel front provides additional impact resistance. A nylon carrying strap on the side can make transport easier.
With dimensions of 23.1 × 9.9 × 8.6 centimetres and a weight of 1.98 kilograms, the «SoundLink Plus» remains handy, but is no lightweight. It should fit well in most rucksacks.
