    I was given a free unit in exchange for an unbiased review. Honestly, I'm not sure what's turned out to be better for our family regarding the Ultimate Ears -- MEGABLAST! speaker -- the fact that the audio is quite room-filling or the Amazon Alexa functionality that's built in. Regarding the speaker, per se, for the size, portability and quality of this device, you really can't go wrong -- Logitech bought Ultimate Ears some years ago, so that speaks to the overall culture. It has very good lows, mids and highs for a Bluetooth speaker; turning it all the way up never completely pegged any of the sound frequencies like is possible with lower-quality devices. While we haven't done it yet, we think this might be a great speaker for outdoor movie nights (one of the reasons why we went after the unit to test it). Connectivity was a breeze through the Ultimate Ears app in terms of setup. This was also our family's first foray into Amazon Alexa territory, and the device certainly doesn't disappoint. Asking simple commands -- or "skills," as is Amazon parlance -- does allow for Alexa to retrieve data and perform simple commands with Internet access (the only caveat with Amazon Alexa is that it will respond anytime anyone says, "Hey, Alexa," even if it's over TV!). And since it's software-upgradable via firmware, future integrations continue to come down the pike. We're definitely looking forward to many years' worth of usage from this device, both inside and outside of the house.

    I’ve used multiple Bluetooth speakers in my years and I would say that the MEGABLAST rates right up there in the top. The most important feature to me off the bat is the music quality. I listen primarily to classic rock and heavy metal and the highs on the output were very crisp. The bass was very punchy and pronounced but I felt at times that the the low end wasn’t filling in on louder volumes (full disclosure, I tend to listen to music loud!) When I listened to acoustic songs, the crisp sound sounded beautiful and it was a very pleasurable experience. The unit structure itself is incredible solid. I like when electronics have a dense feel, the only thing I would say is that it actually packs some weight behind it! I also found the battery life to be phenomenal! The app itself is a little cumbersome in the flow of things while using an iPhone, and other apps didn’t stream out (like Instagram videos), but maybe there’s a little more tweaking I have to go through. This is the first time that Uve really used Alexa and I have to say I just might try it more and more! The microphone picked up my voice pretty easily (even while playing music at my high volunes) which was a huge plus! Overall I recommend anyone looking for a solid and rugged base, nice sounding music, and especially if you are hooked into Amazon’s Alexa!

    I don't get excited about products very often, but the Ultimate Ears Megablast speaker is a truly amazing product. First and foremost, it's a speaker. And as such I'm amazed at the sound quality that comes from it. When they say 360 degree sound, they mean it. It literally fills the room with sound. Not just sound, but a rich, full sound with plenty of bass. I am very impressed with both the quality and the volume this thing puts out. Amazon Alexa has been a new, pleasant experience for me. She responds to just about anything you ask her. There is a little bit of a lag, so don't be in a hurry. So far I've enjoyed having Alexa play my favorite music just by asking. And if I need a little extra volume, I just have to ask. I'm hoping I can figure out how to have her control my internet connected garage door opener. And, of course, you can connect to the Megablast using Bluetooth--up to 8 different devices from computers to cell phones. There are just 4 buttons--volume up and down, power, and Bluetooth. Simple. Combining these buttons provides additional functionality. I also like the fact that it's wireless--up to 16 hours. I recommend the charging dock, as well, which makes it super easy to charge just by setting it on the dock. If you want a speaker that delivers amazing sound quality with lots of volume wherever you are, the Megablast is going to be hard to beat. Alexa is icing on the cake.
