I have the Portable Home Speaker and my farher-in-law has the Resolve+. Personally I like everything about the Bose Portable Home Speaker EXCEPT the bass. I found it lacking. The Resolve+ DEFINITELY has deeper, richer bass for sure. I'm a base head and seriously thinking about returning the Portable Home Speaker and getting the Resolve+. I'm going to contact Bose 1st to see if they're planning a firmware update that would improve the sound.

If you press the on/off button and hold it for a few seconds, it puts the speaker to sleep and doesn't run the battery down while parked for a week. Also be sure you keep the software updated by using the app because Bose recently made some changes to how much power is used in standby mode. You can thank me later.

My Revolve has a lot of dents, dropped it so many times at least 30 but it still works fine. I prefer the sound signature of bose over the "bright" sound of jbl. Although it sounds bright at 90-100 percent. And my favorite part about this bose it you can turn it on without pushing the power button, getting up if your too lazy in bed just swipe down in the bose app 🤣

I coach beach volleyball out on the beach and need a speaker that can sit in the middle of 4 courts and be heard on all of them. The Brookstone Big Blue Party Indoor Outdoor Speaker was perfect, but I had to replace it because it’s a fire hazard. I bought the JBL Boombox and it does everything we need EXCEPT it only faces one way, so you can’t hear it from the two courts behind it. What is the best replacement? I need portable, bluetooth, loud, 360 degree or at least front & back speakers so sound goes 2 opposite directions, and waterproof if possible. Budget up to $500. I'm looking at the Bose Revolve+ but am not sure it's as loud as the Big Blue Party. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I tried both speakers myself in the Bose store. The Portable Home Speaker sounds marginally better than the Revolve+, in some songs the difference is so miniscule that it cannot be heard at all. Max. volume is about the same. If you don't need WIFI or voice assistant the Revolve+ may be the better deal depending what country you're living in (price difference is 150€ in Germany!). That being said I'll probably buy the PHS myself later that year.
