Pairing without a button press is a horrible choice for a Bluetooth speaker, if someone like a neighbour sees it they can connect to it anytime of the day or night and there's nothing you can do about it. There's also an app called Bluetooth LE Spam that people can use to blast ads through it.

That said if you really want one I'd look into Sony I had one of their higher range ones that did it.

Sorry meant connecting, most I know only pair when you use the button then only connect to devices they've been confirmed via pairing previously

I don't want to necessarily have to get up each time to connect my device

This sounds weird. Some devices pair with more than one device, some do not. I have a Bose SoundLink and it is paired to my phone. I paired it once. Any time I turn it on it goes "BBLLLOOP!" And that is how I know it connected. Off I go listening.
