Still worth buying now in 2023, with a excellent sound quality and with a outstanding build quality. And I would 100% buy another one.

The soundlink mini, mini II, SE was and is still a legend.

I have the original mini and I use it as my computer speakers. Perfect for that application. Loud, bassy and easily fits under my monitor. I've had it for like 5 years and still going strong. Good buy.

Actually, it produced stereo sound. That's as a mistake which you should address. The bose speaker actually has two speakers inside and the bass radiator in the middle.

I own a soundlink III and love it still. 8 years later and stil is my favourite one (I bought some UE and Jbl as well). I’m looking for this one as a little brother. Love the size, format and sound signature of Bose

[ericmartinez]

One of my favs of all time. definitely worth it for the sound. Forget all the gimmicks. The sound is amazing

I bought my Soundlink Mini in 2013 and I still use it daily!!

[smakersify]

I have the first one and it's still going strong.

Just bought one in a yard sale for 35 bucks still in the box :) sounds great

i still have mine the first gen soundlink mini from which i bought in 2015 and still working.🎉

Even tho the Bose Flex I bought a month ago sounds way better and has more features I still often use the Mini 2 because of this great small form factor

[Ilikefries]

Just love this speaker. It sounds amazing with the three speakers. I have yet to hear a better sound

Just ordered one from Bose on Cyber Monday for $100. Excellent deal! 👍🏼

Had mime for about 6 years, still is the best speaker I have ever used.

I actually ordered one from Costco earlier today! Lots of good reviews on this unit.

I remember I won a Google home mini at work and gave it away because it wouldn't let me use it without linking an account for google home.

Recently found a used mini ii for $5 thrifting, and as soon as I charged it up, it worked flawlessly an immediately.

The freedom to use a device without personal information being needed is so great. Great find.

According to what I have read, both should have the same size battery. But 1 uses a battery plug which makes battery replacement much easier, while 2 is soldered on. The only things that make the battery last longer on the bose soundLink 2 are that you have less bass and that the bass turns down faster when you turn the volume up and that you can no longer play as loud.

you get a speaker with a poorer sound with less bass and a weaker amplifier only to play approx. 3 hours longer.

bose SoundLink 2 has too little bass and too much treble. It has (loadnes) that make the bass turn down when you get closer to 50% volume

Hi. Actually, even though you say, there is no ““ stereo separation, it is technically a stereo speaker. It’s just the left and right channels are of necessity close together. Also, I don’t notice any issues with the base response that you pointed out. I think they might’ve installed a firmware update since you reviewed this. Because mine doesn’t have those issues you described, and a lot of things could determine that like what kind of music you were listening to with the time. But I think most of what you said is true. I’m not looking for a lot of smart features and a portable Bluetooth speaker. I just want versatility, good quality sound, and above all else, excellent, build quality, and I think this fits the bill, even over the sound link, micro that I have. The bottom silicone rubber came off of those, and it’s inconvenient to have to pair two of those together. But I like this because I can have stereo sound in one portable unit.

Have a first gen mini, just started using it as my nightstand go to sleep music. So much better than the radio. Use it with an I Pod Touch or I Phone, either way it's perfect.

Hands down the best Bluetooth speaker I ever did own.
