The package of SoundLink Mini Bluetooth speaker looks like this. All letters of the package are in English.


On the back is a simple description of the main body.


Looking from the side like this, the box is two-tiered. I decided to take it out of the box at once.


When pushing out the box sideways, the mark of BOSE comes up.


There are speakers in the upper row of the box, the quick start guide, the power adapter, the charging cradle etc in the lower row.


There are quite a few volumes of documents, but not all can be used unless you read them all.


Looking at the speaker from the front look like this. The BOSE logo is printed.


I put iPhone 5 in front. For speakers the height is not that much.


The width is also longer than iPhone 5, but as an impression it feels as "small".


It is large enough to hold with one hand, it is quite small.


There are operation buttons on the top, with power, mute, volume minus, volume plus, Bluetooth, AUX connection buttons on the left.


On the right side there is an inlet for AUX input connection terminal and DC power supply connector.


Especially nothing is attached on the left side.


There is a charging outlet for the charging cradle on the bottom.


There is no logo nor terminals at the back side.


Expanding the Quick Start Guide shows how to use it in multiple languages ​​such as English, Arabic, Korean, but because the flow is explained by illustration, it can be grasped grabbed.


In order to use it immediately, try charging the speaker with the charging cradle.


Connect the charging cradle and the power adapter.


While charging, the power button glows yellow, and when it gets green, charging is completed.


Instead of placing the speaker on the cradle, you can plug the power adapter directly into the DC power connector and charge it.


I will pair with iPhone 5 using Bluetooth. Tap "Settings" on iPhone.


Then tap "Bluetooth".


Make sure Bluetooth on the iPhone is on and press the Bluetooth button at the top of the SoundLink Mini Bluetooth speaker to bring the iPhone closer. Pairing is completed when the beep sounds.


When pairing is completed, the Bluetooth icon on the iPhone notification bar changes from gray to white.


I decided to put music on it. Tap the "Music" icon on iPhone.
