First off, I absolutely love my Bose Soundlink Mini. It was a birthday gift that I immediately knew I wanted to protect. I had a million plans for where I would take my speaker, and how cool it would be to have music with me everywhere. I couldn't risk the possibility of marring my Soundlink Mini's beauty.
I am very much a control freak (is that the right description?), constantly obsessing over keeping my nice things nice. I knew I had to find the most practical way to do this. I considered using a plastic bag to scratch proof the speaker, but a lifetime of a bulky bag seemed overkill (and annoying). I also debated not doing anything. Toys are meant to be played with, right? But visions of ugly little scratches on the beautiful aluminum body didn't sit well with me, either. Finally, I stumbled upon the soft cover on Amazon and I thought all my problems were solved. It was perfect, right? A handy-dandy little slip cover to hug my little Mini's body and give it that little oomph of protection I was looking for. But then why did so many people complain of it's overly-priced, cheap plasticness? "Twenty-five dollars?" they said. "Too overpriced." I was stuck. Would the Baggie be a better option? Finally, I caved. I realized that I spent that kind of money (at least $25) getting a case for my new iphone, and that case was essentially just plastic. I knew I wouldn't leave my phone unprotected because I'm not stupid. Accidents definitely happen (just ask my poor blackberry pearl). If I am going to have expensive things, it only makes sense to take precautionary measures against those random "oops" moments. I realized that protecting this $200 speaker is worth the $25 I'd spend on the case. After a month of having the case on my Mini, I am beyond satisfied with my decision.
Yes, it isn't a hard case (just really nice, thick plastic), and I'm sure it wouldn't protect the speaker if I dropped it off a roof, but the plastic is durable and fits the speaker like a glove. It looks like it's part of the speaker and it doesn't hinder the buttons or the charging process; it fits on the dock just as well. And to top it off, the color is great.
But the best part is, now I can pack my Mini without the worries of unwanted scratches. For me, $25 was a small price to pay for my peace of mind.
PROS
1) Not affect the sound quality. I could not hear any difference with or without the cover.
2) Good engineering design. My favorite part is the Edge Protection. This feature not only offers better protection than Bose Leather Cover but also makes it much easier to HOLD the speaker - remember Bose Mini weights 1.5 lb, and the extruding edges are helpful.
3) Durable plastic. It is Not made from cheap thin-film plastic. Its thickness is ~2mm and tough & stiff. It should provide good impact and scratch protection.
4) Fit the speaker very tightly. Got to follow the installation instruction from the manual.
CONS
1) $24.95 is a little pricey, more than 10% cost of Bose Mini . Under $20 maybe more reasonable.
2) Limited color options.
PROS: Form fitting, nice color, appropriate thickness for a cover
CONS: None to note at this time.
Be warned...putting them on your Bose is as difficult as a woman trying to put on a pair of skinny jeans that are two sizes too small...and then getting them zipped up. But it is well worth the work. The cover provides protection and covered up the dent in one corner of one of mine where it got knocked off a counter onto the tile floor. Had I had this cover, there would have been no dent. Can't recommend this cover highly enough...a wonderful product.
