It&#8217;s also a bit heavier and larger, and comes with an adjustable nylon strap you can use to attach it to bikes, bags, or any other object. There&#8217;s also a new Spotify Tap button that plays your favorite Spotify playlist at a touch. The only real omission is the loss of a mic, so you won&#8217;t be able to use it to take phone calls anymore.<\/p>\n<p>The Bluetooth multipoint connection lets you connect up to two devices at the same time and switch between them seamlessly. With Speaker Link, you can sync two Bose speakers ato create a stereo setup.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pogoClear relative my-10 border-b-[1.5px] border-t-[1.5px] border-dashed border-black py-5 sm:my-14 sm:border-0 sm:py-0\" data-ga-click=\"\" data-ga-template=\"Deals\" data-ga-module=\"openweb_widget\" data-ga-element=\"openweb_scroll\" data-ga-item=\"openweb_scroll_midpage\" x-data=\"{&#10;         commentsCount: null,&#10;         hasComments: false,&#10;         async fetchCommentsCount() {&#10;             try {&#10;                 if (window.openweb &amp;&amp; typeof window.openweb.getMessagesCount === 'function') {&#10;                     this.commentsCount = await window.openweb.getMessagesCount('121004');&#10;                     this.hasComments = this.commentsCount !== null &amp;&amp; this.commentsCount &gt; 0;&#10;                 }&#10;             } catch (e) {&#10;                 console.warn('Failed to fetch comment count:', e);&#10;             }&#10;         }&#10;     }\" x-init=\"fetchCommentsCount()\" x-cloak=\"\">\n<div class=\"relative flex justify-center\">\n<div class=\"flex max-w-fit items-center gap-x-3 bg-white px-5\">\n<p>            <span class=\"text-sm font-medium text-black\"><br \/>\n                What do you think so far?<br \/>\n                <button class=\"ml-1 font-semibold text-brand-green underline hover:text-brand-green-700\" type=\"button\" aria-label=\"Comment section trigger\" onclick=\"window.openweb.scrollToComments('121004')\" x-text=\"hasComments ?
