Have the Bose long time and now brought me the batch for comparison. Player: Nexus 5 via Bluetooth, different musical styles (Black, electro and vocal-heavy pop music) Caveat: The 2 are pretty evenly matched. The Bose wins clear in the lower volume range (as does the JBL correct problems sound artifacts with minimal volume, but you do not probably will notice in daily use, as you soo quiet eigtl never listens to music if it:.. Stay away!) In higher volumes I like the JBL sound a little better that under stressed (at Bose typical) centers come out the better batch. Maximum volume and bass are both pretty equal. The decision is almost here, where the batch has better equipment (mobile phone charging function, hands-free) and not a proprietary power supply and also a lot more favorable. So if you can live in minimum volume range with the sound problems of the batch, gets a very good if not the best available Bluetooth Speaker ...
Criticism of the lack of side covers I really can not understand who is the portion not covered completely carelessly here have no problems in my opinion.
