Love it boom 3 got a new one after the first ue boom last me 6 years

I love it, i paired with another boom speaker. It gives great sound quality

Enjoy listening to all your shows with wonderful even bass set to the perfect volume...you'll be just as satisfied as my ears are!

Easy to use. Works great. Charge time is long. Sounds good and loud enough for most areas or when cycling.

This little speaker puts out big sound!! I absolutely love it!! I take it everywhere I go and it even sounds amazing outside. I’m very happy with my product.

Perfect! Couldnt be more happy to have in my possession

Bought this as a Christmas present for my 17 year ole grand daughter. We have other models of these speakers and love them She specifically asked for this one. She loves it! Very good sound with plenty of bass.

Sound quality is best among similar devices.its sufficient for 500 sq foot room.

Awesome sounds, great product, great quality. Love the sound.

This portable wireless speaker works well and has a nice sound.

The Ultimate Ears Boom 3 is a very nice 360 surround sound speaker. It has incredible sound for such a small package. You may be familiar with the WonderBoom or Boom 2 which are other portable, waterproof, Bluetooth 360 surround sound speakers – all from Ultimate Ears. I have them all so I could compare the earlier products with the new Boom 3. The sound from each is excellent but I did feel the bass was better on the Boom 3. The footprint for the Boom 3 is also better in that it has a smaller diameter but is taller and for me that made it fit better on the real estate of my computer desk. Pricing for the earlier WonderBoom is about 1/3 the cost of the newer unit so that may be a factor for you. However, Ultimate Ears people were listening to feedback on the earlier products and made quite a few changes that may be useful to review. Be aware that there is a complete lineup of Ultimate Ears products now, so you can up your game with even more robust units than the excellent Boom 3. The Boom 3 does come with two 2” drivers and two 2” x 4” passive radiators – this is where the 360 sound technology comes from – marvelous. The Boom 3 has a more attractive and durable finish, in my view, than the Wonderboom or the Boom 2. The new Boom 3 also has a so-called Magic Button to play, pause and skip and you can use this button to run playlists from your cell phone without touching your phone – nice. The Boom 3 has an optional charging disc that you can stand the Boom 3 on and charge without wires. This is especially nice since many folks will want to toss this unit in the pool, and the less messing with the waterproof cover over the USB charging port the better. However, it’s pretty costly and you may want to wait for a better price point on it before you pick one up. You can always charge using the included USB cable which is what I’m doing. Here’s an interesting point, the WonderBoom and the Boom 3 will float, but the Boom 2 will not. So that’s a big improvement since you don’t want the unit to sink beyond its approximately 3-foot water resistance. The Boom 3 is also dust proof which the others are not, so you can toss it in the sand on the beach for example – very nice feature. Bluetooth range is 50% better on the Boom 3 (about 150 feet) which I found nice when walking around my basement workshop paired with my cell phone. I also paired it with a desktop and a Sling AirTV unit – no pairing problems at all. These units are drop tested to ensure they are rugged and that is a very important fact since the units are meant to be portable and used without a worry that a drop on the ground will harm them. There is an android app for the Boom 3 which is pretty much a must if you pair it with your phone. It gives you an equalizer and abilities like combining two or even up to 150 Boom 3’s. You can party-up’ Boom 3’s with any of the Ultimate Ears’ line-up including Boom 2 or MegaBooms. However you can’t ‘party-up’ the Boom 3 with the older WonderBoom. You can update the Boom 3 firmware which is not an option on the WonderBoom. It has a very strong hang loop and this is a definite requirement. The 15 hours battery life with lithium-ion batteries is great and tested out. It does take almost 3 hours to charge up. You can choose it in red, black, blue or violet. If you get more than one, it might be nice to have different colors. If you are still putting up with the old PC speakers, they are now very old sound technology. This Boom 3 has sound so much more vibrant and so convenient with Bluetooth that it’s really nice if you can move up to these types of units. In addition, the ‘party-up’ type function and the ability to drop it in water or sand make its versatility hard to beat. I do highly recommend this unit as the best I’ve tested at this price point for a small Bluetooth speaker.

Really like this speaker. Keep it at the pool and don't worry about the water. Clear crisp sound

What more could you ask for? Waterproof, long battery life amazing sound, This is a great speaker.

Great to use. Easy to use. Nice that the app shows the batter Life

The basics are there: sound is really great and the build is stronger than it looks. However linking two or three together isn’t that easy and charging is really slow.

Absolutely love their reactive features of this speaker. Had to return once due to charging issue, but the speaker was under warranty and I’m back to jamming! Speaker quality is ok, and even when at the the beach, you can enjoy the loud clear sound of this speaker.

love it! getting plenty of use out of it. great quality for the price

Awesome sound easy to use. Small and compact but big sound

This speaker is great! It’s very clear and I can hear it from a pretty decent distance. There is an app you can download and use to control the speaker.
