What customers say about "Key Specs"
Bose SoundLink Revolve Plus Bluetooth Speaker
- Portable, full range sound via Bluetooth.
- It has amazing sound quality and range.
- Connects quickly and has enough range for us to use.
- Bought this for my girl for her birthday. She loves it. The range and sound are excellent.
- The Bluetooth range doesn't even reach from one side of the garage to the other.
Ultimate Ears BOOM 2 Wireless Mobile Bluetooth Speaker
- I use it on my computer, when I camp, when I go literally anywhere. Even with constant use I’ve got about two to three days use.
- The audio quality is great, it gets nice and loud, never have any issues with a seamless bluetooth connection, and I really like the graphic design of the speaker grille.
- The best feature about this speaker is the endless battery life. It seems like I almost never charge it and it has 100 ft Bluetooth connectivity.
- The product itself is great, but there are some firmware bugs. For example, it cannot connect to two devices simultaneously as advertised.
- It will disconnect one device to connect to another one. Also, the tap control to pause and skip songs is not the best.

What customers say about "Features"
Bose SoundLink Revolve Plus Bluetooth Speaker
- Very easy to use and control plus great sound!
- Intuitive setup and controls. Amazing.
- I control volume and music through my Apple watch or iPhone. Fabulous!
- The controls on top of the unit are intuitive. Perfect.
- With the voice control if you say pause, it pauses. Good feature.
Ultimate Ears BOOM 2 Wireless Mobile Bluetooth Speaker
- However, the 360 sound is great, and it is really loud. Even at low volume the sound is clear and the bass is strong.
- Very impressed with the amount of sound that comes from this speaker.
- It also is Alexa compatible. Apparently, it is supposed to work with Siri and Google Assistant but I haven't figured out how to make either of those work yet. Very happy with this speaker.
- I've had it plugged into the wall, playing music and the UE Boom app on my phone shows the battery is charging. I really like that I can turn the speaker on and off remotely with the app.
- I just hope they update the firmware soon and maybe add actual buttons instead of unreliable tap controls.

What customers say about "Interfaces"
Bose SoundLink Revolve Plus Bluetooth Speaker
- You can plug in the Revolve+ to your computer with the supplied USB and play audio off your computer.
- Reasonable sound quality and level of bass. Durable and solid connectivity.
- The USB charging port is on the side of the speaker. Perfect choice.
- You can also plug in a USB device to this instead of Bluetooth.
- USB cable is way too short (3ft). But good connectivity.
Ultimate Ears BOOM 2 Wireless Mobile Bluetooth Speaker
- Third one and I love it this is an amazing product that can handle any situation. Highly recommending these.
- Overall very impressed by how easy the functions are, the quality of the sound, the size of the speaker, and the design.
- Great interface is very simple and beautiful. There is nothing superfluous.
- It's a shame that it can not be used as powerbank. This function would be needed.
- Usb connector broke after a month of use. Charging may fall from the connector.
