Disappointed with the Bose
Despite the reviews on Amazon I have been extremely unimpressed with the Bose Soundlink Mini. The bass is a little much and to me makes listening to most music almost unbearable. This is my personal preference and find most Bose products sound this way. I will say that I love the size, feel, and construction of the device. Due to this I have made the mistake of buying multiple Bose products only to realize that their sound quality is extremely overrated.
If you are of the mindset that more bass = good then you you may enjoy the Bose.

I ordered the Bose (I had a gift card to a store that had the Bose and not the others), hopefully its ok. My other options would be the Beats Pill 2.0 or the Jambox.
I have the Bose now but still haven't opened it.
Still can't make up my mind. The Beats comes with a case which is nice, but not a breaking point for the Bose. The Bose has the charging cradle, but can be charged without the cradle (one less thing to take for travel).

If you want something portable that you can take outside, get the Logitech/Ultimate Ears UE Boom

Louder, more bass, water resistant, etc.
