I had been looking for a good wireless Bluetooth speaker for years! After reading multiple reviews and best ranking lists I finally decided on this one and I was in luck it was on sale, $30 off! It was one of the best tech decisions I've ever made. The sound is great, the speakers are easily portable but can really pack a punch. They transition easily from a small room to filling the beach with music, over the sound of crashing waves, I was both surprised and highly impressed. They are very easy to use, even for those who aren't tech savvy. They pair quickly the first time and every time. I bought two and doubling up (as UE calls it) is simple, just pair them once then turn them on over and over for flawless operation. I think the best selling point, and you won't know this till you buy it, is the battery life. Mine are WAY exceeding the 15 hours stated. I assume the 15 hours is at max volume, but at a reasonable volume I was able to use the speakers for 16 hours and they only discharged 20%!
My only complaint about these speakers is the price, even on sale for $170/each they are a bit pricey, let alone the regular price tag of $200. I still think they are highly worth it, if you can afford them. Otherwise you may want to look at the mini boom for $100/each. I heard the mini boom for the first time last night, someone brought one out on the beach and it was packing the same punch as it's big brother. I can't speak to the rest of its features but the sound quality and the volume were pretty impressive.
Overall, I highly recommend the UE boom, I really don't think you'll regret buying it. In fact I recommend buying two and doubling them up for double the sound or just as everyday speakers for around the house. If you can get them on sale, even better!

Pros: excellent sounding speaker, loud, long lasting battery, great designs, easy to use
Cons: no controls for music for example pause, play, skip, previous, can only control volume, off and on.
Overall I like the speaker, it serves it's purpose, great style, weather proof, you can connect two at the same time but the fact that you cannot control your music from it prevents me from rating it higher.

I sampled a number of wireless speakers, and the Boom had the best sound plus the best uninterrupted connectivity to my devices (laptop, smartphone). I'm able to tote the speaker around to most of the rooms in my home that are on the same floor as device, and it stays connected - even through most of the walls. I can also put the speaker in my bathroom and not worry about steam affecting it. Compared to other speakers in its price range, the sound is very good - and it gets nice and loud without terrible distortion (though you do lose some bass when you crank it). Finally, I feel like I can carry this speaker around without worrying about breaking it.

I'm a huge fan of listening to music and this device makes it easy to take my tunes everywhere! The sound quality is amazing and its has a great range of volume. I work in a very noisy kitchen and have never had to max the volume on it to hear it over the din. It connects easily which is great for the technologically challenged like me and I love that you only have to stop what you are playing in order to let someone else play from their phone to the devise. A friend has a Bose bluetooth speaker and she has to physically disconnect her phone from the bluetooth before the devise will allow another user to connect to it, so glad that the UE Boom doesn't operate with that same annoyance. It's size, weight, and shape makes it easy to just throw into my purse to take with me anywhere and my friends have all come to expect that I'll have it with me. I've taken it on vacation and listened to it at the beach, at pool parties, riding in a golf cart, on a boat, doing yard work, and the list goes on. Great companion for any music lover who wants great sound where ever they are. Oh, and one last thing, the battery life on it great too! I've used it for entire 8 hour shifts and haven't needed to charge it at all durning those shifts if it was at 100% battery life when I started using it.
