    Excellent speakers! I have four and connect them all using the app. Only complaint is the battery life. I'm a little greedy but I would by four more.

    If you are looking for it to sound loud, I do not recommend it. I expected something better, it is not worth it.

    This speaker meets all of my criteria! I'm really happy with the sound, the bass, and the durability of this speaker. Second time I've bought it. Battery life goes on forever and it is safe to take for a river float as it withstands some splashing.

    Worst bluetooth speaker i have owned. And i have owned a few. Product souned blown right of the box. Could have got a faulty unit, and i thought, it happens. But customer service is non existent from the manufacturer. Biggest mistake was giving them some time to respond, because i them couldnt return it anymore to best buy after waiting to long. Very disappointing for a $200 speakker

      Hi Scottyp707, Very sorry to hear about the problems you're having with your Megaboom 3. The speaker does have a 2-year warranty. Go to support.logitech.com to File A Claim. Also, here's a link to the email support page:  https://support.ultimateears.com/en/email-support/.

      In the meantime, some practical things you can do would be to download the Ultimate Ears Boom app which will update the firmware, if you haven't done so already. You can find the app in both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

      Hope that you found this helpful and that all is going well. Thank you for choosing Ultimate Ears. - Richard from Ultimate Ears/Logitech

      Hey there, I'm sorry to hear that your Megaboom 3 didn't have the battery you were expecting. I would recommend leaving the device plugged in overnight to make sure it's fully charged, then testing the battery life. If it still has the same low battery life, there may be something wrong with the device, in which case I would recommend contacting us via our support site for assistance and warranty information.

    Garbage. It lasted 3 weeks before it no longer could charge. Apparently a problem with these speakers and Best Buy won’t take it back…apparently now Best Buy has a 2 weeks return window instead of 30 days.

    Gets pretty loud which is good but as you turn it up the quality of the sound goes down. It works well for our back yard family time.

    An amazing speaker, although not for everyone

    There is much to love about this speaker. The packaging is a good starting point. It is outer wrapped, then an inner box, and the speaker is well protected from vibrations/shock. Underneath is not only a charging cable, but a meaty transformer as well, to allow you to charge fast and not have to share a charger with something else if you didn't have an extra high power transformer. Once opened, you see the usual UE design, with the familiar large up/down volume buttons that to me look like a cross, which I appreciate if intended or not. It is solid, this is no joke of a speaker. It is heavy, solid feeling, waterproof, dust proof, etc. It is as solid a speaker as you can imagine. The included charger is something I cannot say enough good things about. It provides a fast charge, and is included, two things that make this a successful packaged product. The app you download (get the right one) will allow you to see if there are any firmware updates, shows the status of the speaker (connected or not), allows you to put together play lists, allows for an EQ selection and adjustment, turn it on/off, turn the sound up and down, and talks about options for party mode. Now, party mode is pretty cool, if a few people bring their UE speaker, they can be automatically added to the party play (need to set this up to do this) and the more the merrier. While I'm not a party goer today, I can fully appreciate the logic and appeal of having this feature. I'd say this is a strong selling point if you are one who frequents parties. A couple of small peeves. While it can do wireless charging, that necessary setup isn't included. Shame, because moving the rubber plug to charge is slightly cumbersome and makes this somewhat like all other speakers. Would be nice if they included the pieces to do it, or just removed the feature if they want to save a few bucks. Another pet peeve is the charging light is small and is below the charging porti, on the back, at the very bottom. So you'd have to turn it around to see if it charging or not. Slightly annoying, but not like the #1 abovwcomplaint. Now, sound quality is something I'm on the fence about. Why? Because I feel like the sound coming out completely around the speaker (360 degree design) is awesome, but the sound quality is not what I like. It really is a nice speaker system. But the sound made me feel like I wasn't connected to the music, like it was at the end of the long tunnel and I could not quite reach it. I tried to equalize it, and get it where I like it, but I was just reaching for what I really wanted, knowing it wasn't going to be able to do it. However for a water and dust proof speaker, I'd say it is a good value and a definite for ruggedness, the app usefulness, etc. and sound quality knowing you can get decent sound from any angle. I'm just a bit too picky I guess and like my music to fill each ear (like in a stereo kind of way) after hearing this 360 degree way of doing it. If I was at a party, being a picky sound quality person would not matter, just hearing music would be enough. Same with fishing on a boat, laying on the chaise lounge out back, that kind of thing. I would not recommend for someone who loves music as I do, wanting to hear in "stereo" mode. I had high hopes but found myself a bit frustrated wanting to get the sound to come out to me vs. me reaching for it and not getting close enough to.really touch it. If you aren't a music/sound junkie you'll love this I'm sure. If you like the beach, park, laying out on your patio, etc. this is a perfect speaker. If you get it and don't like it, ask BestBuy for a return which they'll do gladly (watch how long you own this first before returning because you don't want to be late to return.
