Ultimate Ears Wonderboom Portable Wireless Bluetooth Speaker, 360° Surround Sound, Waterproof, 2 Speaker Connection for Powerful Sound, 10 Hours Battery, Black

First of all I'm not an audiophile just a music lover and as a music lover I can assure you this thing is great. I actually bought this for my girlfriend and she absolutely loves it. I previous owned a UE Boom 2 which I upgraded to the UE Megaboom 3. The Wonderboom doesn't sound as good as the Megaboom 3 but when you take into consideration the size and price difference it's easy to understand why.For such a small speaker the sound is very loud, it's rich and it packs some bass. The bass is not room shaking however it is clean and not muddy. The mids are also for it's size relatively crisp and clear. It's good enough to use it outside when having a barbecue. For a music lover like me who likes to listen to music whilst cooking, drawing, in the shower, this thing is great you can take it around with you. It's not too big and not too heavy making it very portable.Overall the Wonderboom 3 is great, the battery life is very good, lasting around 8-10 hours depending on how loud you use it. Excellent connectivity with a bluetooth range of around 100 feet. I love it's simple design and I think it looks quite nice and stylish. It's got excellent build quality, quite robust, strong and durable.Whilst the Wonderboom is great, there are a few things that would've made this bluetooth speaker absolutely perfect for me. For one I wish it had a mic/speaker phone function like was on the UE boom 2, it was quite handy being able to take a call and talk on the bluetooth speaker. I wish it had an audio jack for wired connectivity, the only way to connect to the speaker is via bluetooth. Finally it would've been great if the charging cable was usb type c. However in spite of all this, it's still 5 stars from me, it's an excellent product for what it is and it is extremely good value for money (especially on sale). I highly recommend it. Hope this was helpful.

I was given one of these as a gift last year and noticed that it can be paired with another to provide a better stereo output. More on that in a second. On its own this speaker is excellent: the sound quality is great, it’s robust, easy to connect and the battery lasts for ages. It certainly punches well above its weight; it is a stocky little speaker, but that’s no bad thing given the resultant sound, including surprisingly deep bass even at higher volumes. It’s been a great accompaniment to cooking, camping trips, shower/bath time and dinner time. Even on its own the quality of stereo is impressive. However, when paired with another (and it must be the same type of speaker) the sound gets even better, filling a room with high-quality stereo audio. A great piece of kit at a very good price.

Only getting round to reviewing 5 years later. Got this for my father to take to work so he can listen to his favourite music, very robust, can take a fall no problem and the sound is second to none.Just last night he said "Best christmas present I ever got"

I bought this to replace our CD player which had packed in. As we're limited to the amount of sockets around the house I wanted a wireless speaker which was battery operated and which I could pair with our computer and my phone. I admit to being a technological numpty so it was a voyage of discovery but once I'd managed to get all our CDs into our music library on the computer using i Tunes and then syncing my phone we were up and running.The speaker is very easy to pair. I've got it paired with the computer and the phone and I believe there's capacity for pairing several more devices. It means I can now listen to not only music but also to radio programmes.I can't make any knowledgeable comments about the sound but everything sounds a whole lot better than when using my CD player. The bass is certainly deep.Although I'm delighted with the machine, the lack of instructions is not good. They supply health and safety warnings in a multitude of languages but no actual instructions apart from a very simplistic illustration in the box. I needed to Google 'Wonderboom user manual' which was more helpful but even then it still leaves a lot to be desired. I wanted to find out more about charging the battery but there was no information as to how I could tell when - a:- it was actually charging and b:- how I'd know when it had been completely charged. I had to guess that when the light for the on switch started to flash slowly it meant that it was charging and presumably it will stop flashing when it's fully charged. I couldn't wait that long to see.All in all however I'm more than happy.

This was bought as a gift and it was very, very well received. The sound quality is fantastic for something so small and reasonably-priced, it's surprisingly loud, clearly very durable, well-made and the design is cool. There isn't much functionality, it's very basic stuff, but it does the job. Excellent battery life.My one and only criticism is that it lacks any indication of the remaining battery level; I have the (more expensive) Boom 3 which literally speaks the battery level to you when you hold down the volume buttons, or you can see it on the Ultimate Ears app, but the Wonderboom isn't compatible with the app and doesn't have the spoken volume feature. Still, at this price and with the long better life it's no great loss.
