With a rugged design that won't let you down and impressive audio quality, the Bose SoundLink Flex is one of our favorite mini Bluetooth speakers. But buying a speaker of this caliber usually means spending big unless you can find a great deal to make it a little more affordable. With the early Amazon Prime Day sale going on now, it's the perfect time to snag this premium speak for less.
Amazon is slashing the normal $149 SoundLink Flex price by a whopping $50, so you can nab one for just $99. This price only applies to the purple color though, and we'd recommend getting your order in sooner rather than later if you don't want to miss out on these savings. Walmart and B&H are matching the deal, with Walmart also offering major discounts on other tech during its Anti-Prime Day sale.
Packed full of impressive features and hardware, the Bose SoundLink Flex really is the whole package. It's fairly compact, weighing just 1.3 pounds, but it still manages to deliver powerful sound for its small size, including impressive bass performance. It's also equipped with Bose's PositionIQ technology, which optimizes the sound based on whether you have the speaker sitting upright, resting on its back or hanging from the integrated utility loop.
