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 right now. But buying a speaker of this ilk normally means spending big unless you can find a great deal to make it a little more affordable. However, lingering Fourth of July deals make now is the perfect time to act with Amazon slashing the normal $149 SoundLink Flex price by a whopping $50 meaning 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.
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, lying on its back or hanging from the integrated utility loop.

The speaker is plenty durable, with an IP67 waterproof rating, plus it can survive being dropped short distances and is even designed to float in case it falls in a pool or river. On a single charge, it has a battery life of up to 12 hours for all-day listening, and it’s equipped with a built-in microphone so you can easily take phone calls over Bluetooth.
