Bose has introduced a fresh addition to its lineup: the 'SoundLink Home Bluetooth Speaker.' This speaker made its first appearance in China a couple of weeks ago and features a design that sets it apart from earlier SoundLink models. The SoundLink Home Bluetooth Speaker appears to hover within its casing, thanks to a fabric mesh that conceals its internal components.
Compact Design and Specifications
The dimensions of the speaker are 215.9 x 111.2 x 58.4 mm, and it has a weight of 875 g, making it relatively small compared to other Bluetooth speakers. Unfortunately, Bose has not disclosed specifics about the speaker's driver. However, it has confirmed that this model supports Bluetooth 5.3 and offers up to nine hours of battery life.
Connectivity Options
In addition to Bluetooth, the SoundLink Home Bluetooth Speaker includes a USB Type-C port for those who prefer a wired audio connection. The speaker is also equipped with a built-in microphone, allowing users to handle calls and voice assistant commands. Additionally, two speakers can be connected together to provide a stereo sound experience.
Intended Use and Pricing
It's important to note that the SoundLink Home Bluetooth Speaker is designed for indoor use only. Therefore, it does not come with any water or dust resistance features, unlike the SoundLink Flex, which is currently priced at $149 on Amazon. At present, Bose is only selling the SoundLink Home Bluetooth Speaker in China and North America, with a price tag of $219 in the US. The company has not yet announced plans for its availability in other regions.
