Bose SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) vs SoundLink Micro (2nd Gen)

The Bose SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen) and the Bose SoundLink Micro (2nd Gen) are fairly closely positioned in Bose's lineup of portable speakers, but they have different strengths. The Micro is much more portable: you can toss it into a pocket with ease, and it won't weigh down anything it's clipped onto, but that smaller size means you get less bass and a quieter max volume. Both speakers have a similar battery life. The Flex is the only one of the two that offers voice assistant support. If portability is your top priority, the Micro is the obvious choice. But for most people, the Flex strikes a better balance between sound quality and portability.
