Dope sound quality, loud, smaller than a hydroflask, durable.

This item does what it says it does but I think that there are some aspects that could have made it much better. You use the app to connect via bluetooth and it connects easy, as well as the instructions being easy to understand. The music quality is good and the volume buttons on the device is nice. A lot of my problems with it actually have to do with the app. First, there is something called one touch which can be used to go directly to your playlists. However, it is only available in the native app on my iPhone. I don't use the Apple library for most of my music and so this feature is of no use to me. It would be great if I could choose any music app on my phone for this feature. Second, I also dislike that there is no widget for the app. Third, within the app I cannot control the music that is playing. If I want to lower or increase the volume and choose to do it through the app I can do that. But if I want to pause or skip to a different song by using my phone I have to go into the music app I use. While this may not be a huge deal to some people, I prefer to be able to control the music from within the same app. Overall, a good item but it could be so much better if the app was better.

I bought this speaker 3 years ago and so far the volume, the ease of use has been great! You can take and use it wherever you want. Just recently it stopped charging that is why I'm giving it a t 4 stars and have had trouble identifying the problem.

Only used it a few times so far, but has great quality and a lot of volume! I use it when doing yard work (0.5 acre yard and next to a freeway) and I can hear it clearly whether I'm next to it or on the other side of my yard. I love this little thing!

This is the perfect travel speaker that combines great sound and extreme durability. It is small, but rather heavy for it’s size. This is what provides the drop protection and waterproof ability. The one touch play button takes a little getting used to but it provides a simple way to control your music. I am going to enjoy taking this with me on traveling and outdoor adventures.

Unable to play thru my computer, and thus worthless. I traded it for a Bose Single Speaker.

This is my second UE speaker. When I bought my first one years ago I'd never heard of the brand. But when a BB employee gave me a demo in store, the sound blew me away. The Boom 3 is about half the size of my other UE, so it doesn't sound QUITE as good, but it sounds much better than a speaker that size has a right to. Connection was easy and is consistent. The construction feels solid and durable. I've yet to use it for calls, but that's not an important feature for me. My only complaint is that is uses a USB micro connection for charging rather than USB C. Come on, guys. It's not 2009 anymore.

I love this Nigh Black color Boom 3. Visually as this sits on the table in a room I love the look of it. Looks clean and upscale without being overly flashy. When connected with your device via Bluetooth it will blow you away. I played various formats of music on this in my home, outdoors, in the garage, and just general family’s gatherings. This little speaker impressed me immensely. The sound is rich and clear without trying to drown you in bass. The unit is easy to use and intuitive with its easy to find volume buttons and pairing. I only had this hooked up to one device which is my iPhone 6 Plus. The sound streams effortlessly to the unit. I was a good 25 feet away from the speaker with my phone and it didn’t cut out on the sound. The range was impressive because I’m used to speakers cutting out after 10 feet. The sound is loud and aggressive if you want it to be but also clear and crisp at normal room listening. I love that there is a UE Boom app available in ordering to customize your listening experience to the sound you prefer. Such a great tool to have available to an audiophile. Overall I would say invest in this if you’re looking for a fun and loud device to party with or just use on a day to day basis. Looks great and sounds excellent.

Great speaker. I was surprised on how good it sounds and how loud it gets I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend recently. Will definitely be buying another for my son!

Big sound in a small package is all I can say about this speaker. It has Bluetooth capability and sounds awesome when you turn it up! I really like it alot!

The Ultimate Ears - BOOM 3 Portable Bluetooth Speaker is an awesome compact, but powerful, speaker. I use it at the pool, the backyard, camping and when traveling to have great sound wherever I go. The app makes controlling your speaker easy. Rugged, loud, and great sounding, you can't go wrong with this speaker!

This speaker is like a smaller version of my Mega Boom. The pairing process is quick and simple. It has some bass, but nothing like the Mega Boom. It comes with a micro USB cable to charge. I was able to charge mine with the charging dock from my Mega Boom. Overall, it's a good speaker with clear sound.

This speaker is awesome! It’s loud and the bass sounds so good. It fits perfectly in my bikes water bottle cage.

Excellent sound quality - powerful punch - I purchased as a gift and the recipient loves it very much~

Nice form factor and sound is at least as good as similarly priced Sony. Large volume buttons and optional charging base are nice features. Material is nice and is reported to be waterproof and able to float. Application as usual not very helpful

Waterproof, booming sound in a small package. Its not a game changing speaker, but for the price and sound, its comparable if not better than some of the higher priced ones. Charger port has been moved to the side instead of being on the bottom like the previous model. Overall pretty good

Sound quality is excellent. Connecting to computer was easy.

The Ultimate Ears - Boom 3 Portable Wireless Bluetooth Speaker has amazing sound! Extremely deep bass!!

This speaker does exactly what it's supposed to do. Gets loud and has just enough bass.

I've always loved UE products. I used to have the UE Mega Boom. Both have excellent sound quality! The best, in my opinion. However the battery on my current one didn't last nearly as long as it claims to on my first time using it. I haven't gotten a chance to charge it up again and test it, but I will. Overall I definitely do highly recommend Ultimate Ears brand products! ❤️
