We’re big fans of the humble Bluetooth speaker, and while there are plenty of great inexpensive options, few can compete with the Bose SoundLink Flex. This updated second-gen model has some excellent features and five different colors for you to choose from, and right now, you can get one at a discount.
Best Buy is currently offering the Bose SoundLink Flex speaker for just $129 after a 13% (or $21 discount) — but for today only. Amazon is matching the Best Buy deal, so you can grab the same model for $129 there as well. Amazon hasn’t set an official end date, but it will likely copy Best Buy in putting the price back up later tonight.
The Bose SoundLink Flex has an all-day battery that lasts up to 12 hours, so your music can be enjoyed to the fullest as you lounge around at home or host a party. This second-generation model offers significant upgrades over the first edition, such as advanced Bluetooth that plays music from devices as far as 30 feet away without drops.

The SoundLink Flex is IP67-rated waterproof and is also dustproof so you can relax as you listen to your favorite music poolside or at the beach. It features all-encompassing sound, which means you can stand it up, lay it down and place it on its side without compromising sound quality.
Finally, the speaker features crisp bass, clear treble and the high-fidelity sound Bose is known for. If you prefer your speakers to be a little smarter, you really should check out our list of the best smart speakers available today so you can make the right buying decision for your needs.
