And that would be great if I someday show up at a party with the UE Megaboom and someone else had it, and we pointed at each other like that Spider-Man meme.
#UE BOOM SPEAKER BLACK BLUETOOTH#
If you're in the market to buy a Bluetooth speaker and you want a great one, you have my approval once it hits $139 (the lowest historical price according to CamelCamelCamel).Įither way, I really hope more people get this speaker because, as noted above, multiples can be linked together remotely. Right now, as I've said, the Megaboom 3 is still on sale, but at not as low a price. After that experience, I wondered why I waited to keep it in my own shower at home, where it now lives most of the time.

As should be the case for a speaker that has an MSRP of $210. Whether I was amping myself to Waka Flocka's "O Let's Do It," and nodding my head to the bass as I prepared for a long night out, or chilling out to the dulcet tones of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams," the UE Megaboom 3 sounds alarmingly good for its size.
#UE BOOM SPEAKER BLACK PORTABLE#
Its not a huge difference, but if youre toting a portable speaker on a. That means it can be submerged in water for a whole 30 minutes, so splashes of water for around that same amount of time (I was on vacation, and not in a rush) were totally okay.Īnd I spent all that extra time in the shower, in part, because the UE Megaboom 3 sounded damn good. The 7.1 x 2.6-inch UE Boom weighs 19 ounces, while the 7.1 x 2.3 x 2.0-inch SoundLink Mini tilts the scales at 24 ounces. When I was having trouble hearing the speaker clearly when placed outside of the glass doors of a rather spacious hotel shower, I remembered it had an IP67 rating for water resistance. Hilariously, I'd somehow never thought to test its water resistance until I brought it with me on a recent trip. Exactly what you'd expect from Tom's Guide's No. I originally brought it with me to a socially-distanced rooftop fourth of July party, where it packed more than enough volume to drown out the sounds coming from the other side of that Brooklyn roof. A speaker that makes the hairs on my arm stand up is worthy of taking everywhere. The look is stylish, almost minimalist were it not for a top panel with mutilpe buttons and LED indicators. Because, I honestly wish I'd bought multiple units to link together around my apartment out of my laziness to carry it between rooms. The Hyperboom, which measures 14.3 by 7.5 by 7.5-inches (HWD), is available in black, with cloth speaker grille wrapping around most of its surface area. This waterproof portable Bluetooth speaker kicks out full-bodied sound at up to 90 dB. And that was off a random sale in June 2020.Īnd that's a steal of a price for a speaker that pounds brilliant resonance and the kind you'd hope to get as a Black Friday deal. Really loud Then youre ready for the Ultimate Ears BOOM 3. Why's that? Because last year I found the same UE Megaboom 3 (a different, defunct entry on Amazon (opens in new tab)) for just $97. That's a $51 discount, and while $51 isn't anything to sneeze at, I implore you to believe it can go lower. This is why I need to tell you about the UE Megaboom 3, currently $159 (opens in new tab) at Amazon. Sure, something can look well-designed, but how does it sound? Unless you've used the speakers on sale, it's hard to know the true value for your purchase. Hunting for Black Friday Bluetooth speaker deals can feel a bit weird.
