Bose SoundLink Mini II Special Edition vs Bose SoundLink Max

While the Bose SoundLink Max and the Bose SoundLink Mini II Special Edition are both portable speakers, The SoundLink Max has a larger form factor and a higher price tag that might dissuade some users. However, if you're okay with these caveats, you'll be rewarded with a much better overall performance. The SoundLink Max is better built, with an IP67 rating against dust and water, and it has a considerably longer battery life. It can also get louder, with less compression present at max volume. It has a more balanced frequency response, too, with a more even treble response and some additional punch in the low end. That said, it doesn't feature any kind of voice assistant integration as the SoundLink Mini II does.
