Great sound for portable audio and video

Bought as a gift for my husband. He is a gadget lover and a music snob. Constantly looking at the speakers and complaining about the sound quality. We recently got the $99 Revain Echo Alexa and he loved it, but when he heard the sound quality of this megaboom he stopped touching his Alexa. Good rich sound, smooth deep bass, sounds as good as our Bose if not better. Impressive battery life too.

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Waterproof, portable, good sound quality for its size!

Like - install the equalizer app and get more out of it! For this price I think that's fair, of course, if you're willing to spend 300-500€ you get a better sound quality. Considering the size (relatively small case), it delivers good sound quality. Bring portability and water resistance - these are my favorites after looking for speakers for around $150.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • Clarity

She fell in love with it and it suddenly became a housewarming gift

This is my THIRD UE speaker! I took the first one to my daughter's new house so we could listen to music while unpacking. Needless to say, she fell in love with him and he suddenly became a housewarming gift. I took the second one for a long weekend to visit my son. I forgot when I left. He kept using it and "of course fell in love with it" and now he has it. This third one bought is mine! Glad I only have two kids!

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • You could have chosen a newer model

good speakers.: Portable Audio & Video

When it works, it works great. Took it to work and found one major downside. At lower temperatures, the battery is empty very quickly. Like 5 hours instead of 20 hours. Otherwise the sound was great and connected quickly to all my devices, syncs with Alexa and really does a lot when paired with the companion app. but battery loss at low temperatures is annoying and frustrating. I wish it was a little louder. The sound isn't 360 degrees as advertised, but the speaker works effectively and covers

Pros
  • Feel good
Cons
  • Long wait

MegaBoom Yellow Limited Edition (2015)

I really like how it covers a 310 degree arc. The bass is great, so is the mids, but the highs are ok (soft is the best way I can describe it). I love the Megaboom app - it just works. I use an Android phone. I have less than this Battery% - this has happened once so far (actually it was 95% charged but reported 30% during the 10 minute listening window). I knew it was a misregistered level. I listened for 2 hours or more and turned it off. The next time I turned it on, it reported the correct…

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • No Performance

Battery life is excellent so far, the sound is loud and clear enough for a small speaker. Wearable around the house and yard. Update July 20, 2018 The speaker will not charge or turn on when unplugged. Now it's useless as a portable speaker. It has only been used indoors and has not been exposed to water. An internet search turned up many people with this problem. Update July 31, 2018 Emailed to UE Support on July 29, 2018 via their website. Still no answer. Update 2 August 2018 Call UE…

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

Great speaker! Application errors related to it.

5 stars This is a great speaker! The look is sturdy and versatile for all outdoor and indoor activities. The bass is a bit lacking, but overall the sound is great. The sound from a Megaboom is good, but it's not enough for me, so I bought another one. App and I often have trouble with the app dropping both megabooms. I always have to restart both speakers to get them working properly again. - I will change my rating from 5 to 4 because of the app. *Update - The battery seems to last less with…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • embarrassing

My 4th mega boom in 4 years.

This is my fourth Megaboom in 4 years. I only had one, had issues with it not charging after a while and when I contacted UE they replaced it for me. My other 3 were gray and blue and I got this one because I needed one in my garage and it matched my Dewalt tools! So far, so good. sounds just as good as my others and is just as durable. I chose the first generation because to be honest I haven't heard anything good about the second generation other than that it's easier to get to the charging…

Pros
  • Very good price-performance ratio
Cons
  • Quality

CHARGING WILL NOT CONTINUE, LOSS OF MONEY

We bought this speaker after our friends recommended it to us - they had two setups in their car for surround sound and it was amazing. My husband was thrilled that he bought it, tried it and convinced me it was worth it. When we first got it the sound quality was pretty good and it was nice that it was bluetooth and wireless but. I found several cons that make me hate this product and regret buying it. Whenever we went camping with him or watched a movie on our laptop, he always died within…

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • For old
