Have you tried using the Hands free Speakerphone facility yet? If you've
tried it then can other people hear you clearly?

Hi!
I saw the Bose Soundlink Mini II for the first time today and I came away
satisfied with what I'd heard.
I owned the original Bose Soundlink Mini speaker which I thought to be very
good, a little bass heavy - as Bose products are - but an incredibly powerful
sounding unit for the size.
The Soundlink Mini II sounds very similar though the mid range seems to have a
little more presence which adds to the subtlety and the charm of the sound.
Its worth noting the differences between the original Soundlink Mini and newer
model.
The Soundlink Mini didn't have a TTS - Text To Speech - module built-in whereas
the Soundlink Mini II does and one of the nice features here is that - when
powered up - the soundlink Mini II tells you what device it has paired with,
something that no other Bluetooth speaker I've ever owned has done - I don't
think even the Jawbone Jambox did that - so a very nice touch particularly if
you plan to use the Mini II with multiple speakers.
The Mini II can be charged from a USB power source - whether that be a power
adapter or powerbank - whereas the original Bose Soundlink Mini could not, you
had to carry about the 12 volt AC adapter.
Build quality is about the same, the nice rugged alaminium body though I'd
still recommend a carry case or rubber sleeve if you plan to carry this beast
about.
The original Mini had a dedicated Aux-In source button whereas the button has
disappeared on the newer model, connecting a patch cord to the Aux-In socket
automatically switches the source to that mode.
The Mini II has a microphone so can be used as a convenient hands free
speakerphone with your paired device, unfortunately I wasn't in a position to
try out this feature.
The Bose Soundlink Mini II still comes at a premium price of nearly 300
Australian dollars but you certainly get what you pay for with this little mite
if you're wanting a powerful sound.
I still have a few gripes with Bose and one of the main being the decision by
Bose not to use AptX decoding on any of their speakers, something that IOS
users probably won't bother about but Android users are probably used to by
now, having AptX makes all the difference if your passion is to listen to music
with all its detail and perhaps the thought from Bose is that - with such a
speaker as this - you can't hear all the detail?
