The Bose SoundLink Color II is a portable Bluetooth speaker with a square-shaped design. It can reproduce vocals and lead instruments clearly thanks to its well-balanced mid-range. However, its treble range is underemphasized, so the higher frequencies of these instruments may sound dull or veiled. It has an IPX4 rating for water resistance, though we don’t currently test for this. Although it doesn’t have any voice assistants built-in, it can understand you easily when using the voice assistant from your paired smartphone.
The Bose SoundLink Color II is decent for podcasts. It has a well-balanced mid-range, so dialogue is reproduced clearly and accurately. It’s also very portable and lasts for almost ten hours on a single charge, so you can listen to podcasts on-the-go. That said, sibilants like S and T sounds may be perceived as dull or veiled due to the speaker’s underemphasized treble range.
