Read the manual. You can pair them mono or stereo WITHOUT the app. Here is how it's done. Pair ONE of the speakers with your device. Turn both of them on and be sure it is connected via bluetooth. On your main one touch the bluetooth and the volume up at the same time. Then it will link up with your second speaker and announce "party mode". You want stereo? touch and hold the bluetooth and volume down button. Easy breezy. Just send money 🙂

Great review. For indoors, definetely 2 Flexs' are the way to go. For outdoorsy people get the Max if you have the budget.

There is a way that can put both speakers to put them in the party/stereo mode instead of the Bose Connenct App. I have two Flexes. It's by pressing the bluetooth button and the volume up button on the first speaker and on the second by pressing the bluetooth button and volume down. It takes only a few moments to announce party mode both speakers. To switch to stereo press the volume up and bluetooth button on any speaker and it will say left right.

I think 2 BoseFlex is slightly better than 2 BeatsPill in terms of sound quality. However, feature wise, I think Beats better. With updated Bluetooth and find my and reverse charging.

This dude is spot-on. I own 2 Flexes, and I decided to buy a Max. I work from home and use the Flexes at opposite sides of my desk facing me. They sound incredible as a pair. I sync them from the speaker and never bother with that suckful app. The Max lacks for me, only because it's not in stereo. I almost wish I had never bought it. Another Max in stereo (when it's able) would probably sound better than the 2 Flexes. But now we're talking $320 vs $800. I don't think 2 Max would be $480 better.

For what it’s worth anyone investing in either I would seriously consider 2 x soundcore motion booms. The quality is awesome. I have a flex which I use for travel and to fit in my pocket but for around the house I want big bass so I much prefer listening to music on the motion boom. The max is ridiculously expensive. Bose being Bose are good at marketing so they think they can justify charging top tear prices. Yes their sound is good but don’t underestimate a motion boom of which you can buy 5 of them and have change vs buying a max. The app gives you an awesome eq and actually works all the time vs boses awefully unreliable app.
@edensl8759Ай бұрын
sadly the mic that you're using has a very limited frequency capture, which is something that reviewers like alan ross or oluv has, i can't really tell the difference between both in this video, the double flex sound brighter. irl the bose goes way deeper in bass and has overall better soundstage as expected

I have the same problem with the app it's completely garbage to me. I found it's easier to pair both speakers together just using the Bluetooth and volume up button simultaneously on one speaker and Bluetooth and volume down button on the other speaker simultaneously their will be a few seconds delay before they connect but they will usually pair up in party mode, and then you can use the app to change to stereo mode.

Way better bass response and stereo sound and no delay when watching video clips, movies or playing video games. Really is a no brainer.

I’d seriously look at something else, 2x soundcore motion booms sound pretty dam good and are very easy to connect in stereo. Bose hasn’t seem to figure out there bugs when it comes to their app and pairing or via the speaker connection volume down. You can get 2 x motion booms the same price pretty much as one flex. Bose don’t give us an adjustable eq either. I have compared the sound between the flex and a motion booms and prefer the sound fidelity on the motion boom with a custom eq. The bass is 10x larger on the boom too.
