It has a Bluetooth button that you can use to pair the speaker to your device, which should trigger a voice prompt informing you of the device it's connecting to. You can also press and hold it to activate your smartphone's voice assistants. Its multi-function button is used to play, pause, backtrack, and skip tracks. You can mute and unmute your phone calls by pressing them both at the same time. You can use the + and - buttons to increase or decrease the volume of the speaker. The Bose SoundLink Revolve+ II has a very good selection of controls. We've updated the results for Microphone On/Off to 'Yes'. While music still plays in mono, there’s a sense of air around individual instruments and vocals.Update : You can mute the microphone during a phone call by pressing the + and - buttons at the same time. The biggest difference between the two is that the bigger Revolve+ gets much louder and throws and even more expansive soundstage. The overall balance is slightly warm, which make the Bose very forgiving with compressed music from streaming services.

The good news is that the bigger SoundLink Revolve+ improves on the sound quality of the smaller Revolve in just about every way, though the tonal balance is identical between the two.

If you read our Bose SoundLink Revolve review, you’ll already know that we’re big fans of its sound. The dock makes it easy to dock when at home and really should be included with the speaker, seeing as the older Bose SoundLink Mini II ships with one. On the bottom you’ll find a standard tripod mount and you’ll also notice four metal contacts for using with the charging dock, which is sold separately.

We’re disappointed that Bose didn’t choose to update the speaker with USB type-C as most devices today have moved to the new connector which supports fast charging and the lack of one means that the SoundLink Revolve+ takes ages to fully charge if you run it dry. On the back of the speaker you’ll find the microUSB port and 3.5mm aux port for legacy devices. There’s also a mic that’s great at picking up your voice for calling. The buttons are easy to press and the multifunction button is slightly raised, making it easy to use by feel.

On top of the speaker you’ll find all of the controls for power, pairing, volume, aux switch, and multifunction button that works to control playback as well as activating the voice assistant on your phone. Although it looks like it will weigh a ton, the speaker is surprisingly light for its size, making it easy to take with you to a party. The only difference is that the SoundLink+ gains a handy handle for taking on the go. Both feature aluminum chassis with rubberized bases and buttons. The design of the Bose SoundLink Revolve+ is nearly identical to the smaller Bose SoundLink revolve.
