                While the Bose SoundLink Mini II is clearly not as portable as the Boom 3 — from the design, the lack of IP rating, and the shorter battery life — it has a better overall sound quality and the included AUX port means you can enjoy better audio fidelity through a wired connection.Oct 26, 2018
