Bose has announced a sequel to its original SoundLink Flex Bluetooth speaker. The second-gen SoundLink Flex portable speaker builds on the foundations laid by the 2022 model, adding a raft of additional features that Bose hopes will see the new contender challenge the likes of JBL, Beats and Ultimate Ears.
Launching at the same price as its predecessor – £150 / $149 / AU$250 – and sporting a similar overall design, the SoundLink Flex (2nd Generation) does differentiate itself via a handy Shortcut button – similar to the switch found on the more recent, five-star SoundLink Max – which lets you quickly access a range of functions, including summoning your voice assistant or starting Spotify, at the touch of a button.
