    Good sound. Bluetooth works at longer distance than advertised. Love The app option. Very user friendly. The bad.. The battery does not last near as long as advetised. Overall I really like the speaker and will probably buy 1 more to have the double up option. Would give 5 stars if battery lasted longer.

    It really is a great speaker for the price point and size. The next step would be a giant Bose that I would not want to carry around. This I can put on a car trunk and ground and a ledge or hang it on my back with a carabiner. It's even small enough to fit my tank bag on my motorcycle so I can take it to trips.

    I bought this Bluetooth speaker because I wanted something small and portable, but I didn't want to sacrifice sound quality. For such a small speaker, I am very pleased with the sound it produces. I also like the iPhone app that I can use to control the sound settings and the speaker can play music for hours on 1 charge.

    I was able to pick up one of these Logitech speakers for $100 and it is amazing works very well, very loud and I love the double up function where you can make multiple ones sync and play together!

    We heard this product playing while we were getting our new phone and were surprised how good it sounded, it's small and affordable. We can take it with us outside and it is high quality. We love it!

    The speaker sounds great. Good quality, easy to use, and sturdy, still works great even after kids have dropped it. There is an app you can get to adjust sound but I have hardly used it. It could be a little louder and the range isn't great but keeps signal as long as you don't go inside or too far.

    The only issue was setting up the second phone. Updated the software on both UE Boom and the second phone (same make/model) worked. Both were Samsung Galaxy S5. The sound was great and portable.

    I've listened to a few similar smaller speakers in the past but this is by far the best one so far. At the highest volume, the sound is crystal clear with no distortion. Great little speaker.

    The design makes this a great buy. Because the speaker goes around, it's great for larger spaces and the sound reaches further. The sound quality is not quite par with Bose but for the price it's perfect and the sound is certainly adequate unless your using it write music or edit sounds.

    I love my UE Boom and found that the only thing better than the UE Boom is the UE Boom 2. I returned this product and later purchased the 2nd model for some of the new features. However, there was nothing wrong with the UE Boom. I just can't write enough good things about this little speaker. Don't let the size fool you. I listen to it every day. The battery lasts long, the sound is great, is durable and lightweight, it's simply the best!

    I've had this for about a month now and the sound quality amazes me from this small package. It's easy to connect to my iphone 5, ipad, MacBook Pro and provides enough volume for my needs. It does lack some bass but the sound quality was better than other comparable bluetooth speakers I was considering. The battery life is amazing and I've only charged it 3 or 4 times since I've owned it (about 1 month). It has a ring where you can attach a carribiner to easily attach it to hang off a backpack, branch, tent, etc. I really love this thing.

    I bought this as a present for my mom for the holidays and it has worked great and is super simple to use. It produces great sound - I wish I'd bought one for myself when they were on sale!

    I bought this to connect to the iPad

    As a bonus the app has a graphic equalizer that allows me to fine tune for music, movies or room acoustics. I can finally hear my iPad without wearing earbuds. Originally purchased to watch movies with my wife in our bedroom. Recently bought a home and it's going to be a while until we put a tv in the bedroom. We'd been watching movies on an iPad, which is all good - tiny screen and all - but some movies we couldn't hear the sound track. Now the speaker sits on the shelf over the bed and the sound is great. Plus, sitting in the spa or while working in the garage I can connect to my Samsung G4 and enjoy Pandora with a much fuller sound than my devices tiny speaker. Battery life is very good. I haven't timed the useful battery life, but I use the speaker several hours a day and charge only once each week. Sound quality is beyond my expectation for a portable Bluetooth speaker. I compared this unit to the units available at bestbuy and the bass response and EQ gave this unit a wide margin over the others, including the Bose units in the same price range.

    We have a Beats Pill in the family and it sounds good. I will tell you that this Ultimate Ears Boom blows the Pill out of the water. The Boom is built very well, has incredible sound and I can't believe how much deep bass this little thing has. There is an app that controls the Boom that gives you battery life, an EQ to adjust and pairing to other Boom speakers for stereo sound. I will be buying another Boom! 10 times better and a little cheaper then the Pill.

    I PURCHASED THE UNIT SO THAT I COULD HAVE A GOOD SOUNDING SPEAKER FOR MY MP3 PLAYER, SMALL ENOUGH TO FIT IN LUGGAGE, TAKE CAMPING, OR EVEN JUST USING ON THE PATIO. BOUGHT ONE FOR MY SON, ALSO.

    This small speaker unit, puts out surprisingly good sound. A bit weak on the base, but for the size it was exactly as expected. It is easy to setup and connect. Very good battery life.
