Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a great speaker for inside listening but definitely not for the outside. I had researched for best pool/beach bluetooth speakers and this came out on many lists. Sadly, this is not the case for me, the sound gets lost in the wind even at top volume.

My son had bought this speaker before he went back to base and I loved the sound quality. I decided for the price it would be a nice speaker to use in the summer out by the pool.

The Megaboom 3 has excellent sound for the size of the speaker. The added factor of being able to pair multiple speakers together is great for backyards, pool parties, etc.

So purchased this speaker thinking it was better quality, on top liked the ability to turn on from app. Unfortunately it was a disappointment because the bluetooth kept on having static. Returned it and got a JBL for much less money and better quality sound.

This speaker has some cool qualities but the sound isn’t very crisp. I had a different brand by a four letter B word last time which sounded a lot better.

I returned it for the Mega blast. Need loud for outside events...

It’s a good speaker. If I had it my way, I wish the battery life would last longer

I would definitely recommend this speaker for each days and such

Loudness was not as expected espically for price. The smaller wonderboom has same frequency for cheaper price.

Got this for my adventurous lifestyle and It has done its part. This is an incredible product that truly does handle all types of beaches, trails, and at home moments.

Not my first UE speaker and certainly won’t be my last, always good quality and amazing sound!

Ultimate Ears (Logitech) continues making great Bluetooth speakers. The MegaBoom 3 is a great package of portability, great sound, battery life, and rugged-ness. DESIGN and CONTROL This is a great design. It's a nice looking cylinder that is about the same shape as the original Amazon Echo, which isn't a bad thing. The design allows for 360 audio. The buttons are easy to use, there's the large volume up and down which you'll use the most (you can't miss them) the power button and the single button in the middle that allows for pause, fast forward and rewind. While I do like having dedicated buttons to go to the next song and rewind, etc. having one dedicated button to perform all function (that you use with multiple presses) is just fine as most people, myself included, use their phone to control the music. It has a nice little cloth hook that you can attach a carabiner to in order to clamp it to say, a backpack, which I appreciate. It's not heavy, but manages to have impeccable build quality. The fabric surrounding the speaker gives it a premium feel and is tightly woven in a way to hide/mask or even eliminate marks or scuffs from a fall (I dropped it on my driveway by accident). DURABILITY and WATERPROOF The main attraction in my mind is the fact that the speaker is waterproof. It literally floats in the water while playing music. While I don't think that's the best way to project sound, it is just so nice NOT to worry about damaging your speaker. Most people I would imagine use Bluetooth speakers outside, in the elements. Some are better for camping or by the pool, others need to be isolated from the elements so you don't damage them. This thing can be taken anywhere without fear of damage. If it drops in the pool or lake, no big deal. Out in the rain? No big deal. That is a great feature for someone on the move. As I said, I dropped it on my driveway, and it didn't get a dent or scuff. While I haven't taken it on a hiking/camping trip, I will certainly do so next time. I have no doubts it would be a great companion. SOUND QUALITY Bluetooth speakers are a dime a dozen. While I wouldn't buy a speaker that didn't have decent quality, I tend to buy them based on features, since most of them in 2018 have great sound, especially to the non-audiophile. This speaker is no exception. I was impressed by the sound. Even more so by the 360 degree sound. I know Bose and maybe other companies have done it before (Amazon) but this was my first experience. It's great to place the speaker in the middle of the room or in the middle of your group and have sound coming from all sides rather than one. It really does enhance the usefulness of the speaker. If you're going to place it against the wall, this feature is moot, but if you were going to keep a Bluetooth speaker indoors on a bookshelf all the time, I might look at other options. The bass doesn't rock the house, but it's not intended too. It provides clear balanced sound that is impressive to me. BATTERY LIFE It's all day. I haven't listened to it for 20 straight hours, but I've gone days without recharging it with periodic use on most days. It's more than adequate and is borderline fantastic. All day life for a speaker is what you should be looking for if you ever intend on traveling/hiking/camping with a speaker. CONCLUSION Bottomline, if you need a waterproof and durable speaker and/or like to entertain outside this is a great option and I highly recommend it. It isn't powerful enough to be your speaker at a loud tailgate, but for smaller settings it is more than adequate in terms of sound level. And you can't beat the battery life, assuming you charge it before you use it, it will not die before you decide to turn it off.

So easy to set up on both my phone and TV Sound is amazing. Can't use on both at same time.

Surround sound is surprisingly good. Lot of sound from little speaker.

This speaker pairs up with other Megaboom 3 and Boom3 speakers easily. The app for this speaker is wonderful. The sound of the speaker is good and this might not be the most loud speaker out there but it is quality sound.

Statically at times have to turn off and back on ok

This speaker has great sound and made very sturdy. The only problem with this speaker is the battery life was not what was advertised. I get maybe 4.5 hours of battery life out of this speaker.

This speaker is perfect on the go, in the gym, working in the yard, or any other activity.

Sound was not nearly as clear as my beats pill xl. It was 8 years old and started losing its “umph”. Had a few people tell me this was comparable. It’s not. Save your money. Buy the Ultimate Ears Hyperboom. Yes it’s more money. But it’s a better speaker.

Needed a smallish speaker for the golf cart. This was perfect and it was so good I started using it for get togetherness where I couldn’t use my patio speakers.
