Ultimate Ears Boom 3 Wireless Bluetooth Speaker, Bold Sound + Deep Bass, Bluetooth, Magic Button, Waterproof, 15 Hours Battery, Range of 150 ft, Night Black

Nice clear mids & decent bass, in an attractive device, make this an all-around winner.On the negative side: there's a mostly unnecessary app, oversized volume buttons, and a I'd prefer it had a USB-C power connector instead of the old "micro" connector.Over all, this is a great speaker. It also looks really nice, and feels solid in-hand. The UE is small/light enough that I use it as my travel speaker, although I prefer the boom-ier bass on my (heavier) JBL for workout and party music at home.This speaker sounds good, but not obtrusive-- natural for various genres. The default tuning is "fine". Unusual for a Bluetooth speaker, there is an EQ feature on the app, but it doesn't let you turn one band up without decreasing the others. Good for tuning the sound quality for eg, spoken podcasts, but you can't turn up the bass or the treble like you might on a usual sound system.The app also allows using the speaker's top "smart" button to automatically launch playlists without otherwise interacting with a device. A clever idea, but since I usually use an AI (like Google Assistant) I find it unnnecessary, and better to not have too many random apps installed. The speaker works beautifully without the app-- totally optional.I used to buy Logitech PC speakers long ago, and they still make good "gaming" speakers. It's interesting Logi acquired Ultimate Ears, a brand I hadn't heard of before. A good move on their part, as this is one of the two best speakers I tested recently in my search for the perfect hardware.Highly Recommended.

I’ve been using this speaker a lot. I put it in the cup holder of the motorcycle and sound is great, take it to the lake, hiking or simply at home; no issues connecting to it every time from my phone. Works every time with a great sound. The app has an equalizer that also helps when you are inside vs outside.

I found wonderboom at target on clearance and I should have bought them all. When it wouldn’t take a charge anymore I looked to upgrade. My bf wanted one too because he was so impressed with my old one.So we upgraded to the boom 3, got 2. One was perfect the other didn’t charge. Such easy replacement from Amazon, got it the next day. This one is perfect. You can pair them together to get stereo sound. The sound is phenomenal, pairing is so simple. One of the best speakers out there. I have chosen it over Bose everyday, and I am a Bose girl.If you want immense sound and need it to be easy get any of the wonderboom products.The app is new to me and I need to work with it but I use my Amazon music on it and just party like it’s 1999 in my bathroom getting ready for work.Get the warranty, which I didn’t but should have because when it decides to not charge you will be sad and anxious for a new one. I have had my 1st one for 5 years, I dropped it, regularly and no problems. I use it in the bathroom next to the sink because it is waterproof.The charging dock I haven’t seen it really charge yet, but I could be doing it wrong. But the cord is easy peasy.I love my boom 3 and will stick with Ultimate ears for years to come. You can pair I think up to 20 with the boom 3. I can’t imagine how awesome that will sound.Hope this helps. You will love it.

I've been putting this speaker through its paces for the last few hours and I'm really impressed. Sound quality, water resistance, and build quality is all there. The app is well designed, pairing is quick and easy, and bluetooth range covers my entire apartment.It's important to understand that you're not gonna get crazy sub bass on this thing, but that's not what they're trying to do here. One thing I really have to hand it to UE for on this speaker is instead of trying to reproduce frequencies in those bottom sub ranges, they have obviously set a hard shelf on the EQ that totally eliminates those frequencies from the mix rather than try to make the small speakers in this unit try for it anyway. A lot of other bluetooth speakers I've heard fail pretty hard at that and you end up with distortion and a lot of muddiness in the low range because of it. The tradeoff is that especially low end music (namely drum and bass, dubstep, 808 heavy hip hop and trap, etc) isn't going to exactly shine on this speaker.What does sound great, though, is just about everything else that doesn't rely on sub bass. Rock, jazz, metal, most hip hop, most electronic, funk, r&b, podcasts, etc all sound really clear and have great dynamics. This speaker is also capable of going extremely loud. I couldn't get it past around 70% volume in my apartment without it being excessive, yet the music sounded totally clear and free of distortion even when I cranked it.Also, I brought it in the shower to test and it got wet without issue and dried off quickly.I just got the speaker so time will tell how reliable it is, but count me as impressed. I'm looking forward to taking this on river floats next summer. Really happy that well made, waterproof electronics are readily available now. That was by far one of the biggest selling points to me after the sound quality.They should have used USB C, that's maybe my biggest gripe, I've never cared for micro USB.

I have been using this speaker now for a year in my car. My car is so old that I can't connect it to my phone, so I thought I should get myself a speaker. A friend recommend me the Boom 3 and then I got it.Sound quality:It is quite decent. It is not sensational but still very good. Therefore, 4 stars.Bluetooth connectivity:It has its issues every now and then, but it can be fixed with a few clicks here and there.Battery life:The only downside is the battery life. It doesn't last that long. I can use it for 6 hours but will then have to recharge.I would still recommend this product though. It is easy to use!

How about two of these speakers sometime ago. They still work very clear. They can get pretty loud. Has a real nice sound to it..
