Bose SoundLink Max Portable Speaker
Bose is known for packing big sound into small enclosures. The SoundLink Max provides room-filling sound in a package that's under a foot wide. Side vents and its wide body help create a stereo soundstage with deep bass, while support for the AptX Adaptive codec delivers quality audio over Bluetooth 5.3. There's also a 3.5mm input for legacy sources and a two-way USB-C port that charges up the 20-hour battery while doubling as a power source for other gadgets. IP67 rated for dust and water resistance, it comes with a removable soft-textured rope handle that can be replaced with an optional shoulder strap or left behind entirely for a more bag-friendly form factor.
