UE Boom 2

 
5.0
Pros: Brilliant design, Slightly improved sound, More robust feature set, Waterproof
Cons: Battery life isn't improved, Same price
Verdict: Chances are, if you're shopping for a Bluetooth speaker, you've probably heard of the original UE Boom , or at least you should have. It won us over with its unmatched style, powerful audio and battery performance – plus a ton of features, thanks to its companion app.

UE Boom 2

 
4.0
Pros: Super loud maximum volume, Colourful design, Good sound quality, Great Android and iOS app
Cons: Distorts at high volumes, Expensive
Verdict: The UE Boom 2 is the follow-up Bluetooth speaker to Ultimate Ears' 2013 UE Boom – a waterproof speaker that made a splash with its insane maximum volume and stellar battery life. It fell slightly flat on audio quality, however.

4.5
Pros: Robust build, Loud and clear sound output, Waterproof, Can be connected with unlimited UE boom 2, Amazing battery life, Full control over sound settings
Cons: Sound distorts at high volume, Costly
Verdict: The UE Boom 2 has inherited its design from the last years UE Boom model that my colleague reviewed. Just a little twitch in push buttons, the power button has no markings now and the charging and auxiliary jack acquire a rubber flap, that's all, in form factor only.

UE Boom 2

Pros: Waterproof and drop-proof, Backyard-filling sound, Easy-to-tote size, Handy speakerphone and alarm functions, Outstanding battery life
Cons: Can't quite match non-portable speakers' sound quality
Verdict: In the pool, at the beach, in the shower or wherever, the UE Boom 2 can survive dunkings and drops -- and sound good doing it. In reviews, it shrugs off testers' abuse better than any other Bluetooth speaker.

UE Boom 2 Bluetooth Speaker Review

Pros: 360 degrees of sound, Very durable, Waterproof (1m for 30 minutes, Great battery life (~11 hours
Cons: Gesture system for skipping tracks isn't that efficient, Bass could be deeper
Verdict: The UE BOOM 2 is Jeff's daily driver as far as Bluetooth speakers go. He actually used the UE BOOM before that. Safe to say he (and we) like the BOOM series. In terms of changes, the BOOM 2 has added gesture controls-so now you can tap to pause, double-tap to skip tracks, etc.

Verdict: Logitech's Ultimate Ears UE BOOM 2 is the successor to its original UE BOOM . This portable speaker fixes some of its predecessor's flaws in the audio department, but remains rather similar to the older BOOM in terms of design and outlook.

Logitech UE Boom 2 - A new favourite

 
4.5
Pros: Great sound quality for form factor, Long Bluetooth range, Light, portable design
Cons: Struggles with sub-bass frequencies, Slight distortion at higher volumes
Verdict: Logitech subsidary Ultimate Ear's original UE Boom was widely celebrated as one of the best portable Bluetooth speakers you could buy. With the UE Boom 2, Ultimate Ears has iterated with a speaker that's better, but a little pricier.

UE BOOM 2

 
4.8
Verdict: Ultimate Ears' line of BOOM speakers recently got updated with the arrival of the BOOM 2 speaker. The BOOM 2 shares the same footprint as the original BOOM, but has been updated with a few nifty features. Among these is wake-by-bluetooth and stop/start/pause slapping capability.

4.3
Verdict: As with the UE Roll, the Boom2 and Megaboom have a solid build, minimalistic design, along with variations of vibrant colours. There is very little difference between the two units, with the Megaboom, almost simply, just a larger Boom2.

Verdict: UE has a fabulous Bluetooth speaker here. In my opinion, this one is gonna be hard to beat. I love how ruggedized the build is. A portable speaker should be able to withstand life's perils. The 360-degree sound output is also well-thought; it just makes sense.

UE Boom 2 Bluetooth speaker review

Pros: Great volume, Wonderful audio quality for its size, Great Bluetooth range, Block party app feature allows 3 users to alternate playing music to the speaker, Waterproof up to 1 meter for 30 minutes
Cons: Does not pick up much of the bass frequencies, Setting the alarm to work properly is not intuitive, Periodic problems with connectivity within the app, Periodically the remote "Power On" button was missing in the app, Expensive
Verdict: Good music is indispensable, but what good is it if you have poor quality audio devices Ultimate Ears (UE) which is owned by Logitech released its Boom speaker in 2013 to rave reviews. UE has updated the Boom to the UE Boom 2 and I requested it to review.

3.0
Verdict: Despite these niggles, the UE Boom 2 is a decent Bluetooth speaker, with plenty of things to recommend it. It's tough, looks great, goes very loud and, for casual listening, the sound quality is fine. The speaker is packed with features, too.

Ultimate Ears UE Boom 2 review: Booming back for the sequel

 
4.5
Pros: Great 360-degree sound for this size, Decent battery life, Full-on waterproofing (now including ports, Colourful design, Stereo pairing possible, Great app with preset equaliser settings
Cons: Bass has its limits, Not dramatically different from first model, It's pricey, Would like more equaliser controls
Verdict: Ultimate Ears has become more of a household name since its inception by then-Logitech (now just Logi), since releasing a variety of Bluetooth speakers to the market. The first UE Boom, released back in 2013, was one of the best small-scale portable speakers we'd ever heard, all things considered,...

UE Boom 2: Australian Review

Verdict: Back in 2013, we were blessed with the launch of the UE Boom -- a small, portable, waterproof speaker that sounded great for its size and had enough battery life to last a full day at the beach.

UE Boom 2

 
4.2
Pros: The UE Boom 2 is a compact, durable wireless Bluetooth speaker that plays louder than the original Boom and sounds a little better. It's stain-resistant, shock-resistant and now fully waterproof. Battery life is a strong 15 hours, and it can be paired with a second UE speaker for stereo sound
Cons: Somewhat pricey
Verdict: The UE Boom has been a mainstay at the top of CNET's best portable Bluetooth speakers list the past couple of years, so we were very curious to see what UE (Ultimate Ears) had in store for its successor, the UE Boom 2, which retails for $200 (£170; AU$250).

UE Boom 2 Review: Louder and Tougher

 
4.0
Pros: Waterproof and drop-proof, App extends functionality, Vocals sound full and clear
Cons: Muffled speakerphone
Verdict: The Boom 2 represents an incremental upgrade over the original. The best additions are the gesture control that allows you to play and pause music without needing your mobile device, and the improved toughness.

Good speaker for the price

 
5.0
Verdict: It is very compact. The white is more of an off-white than a true bright white. Its VERY durable. I can use it around water and its totally fine. Has a smooth texture. The noise it makes when it turns on and is connecting through blue tooth always ends up scaring me LOL.

5.0
Verdict: I read the top line and saw that it says Boom 2. When I got this in the mail I was shocked since it's a megaboom (the higher up model from Boom 2). I wasn't expecting a megaboom but I am thrilled that I got it for such a fantastic price. This is my second UE speaker and I could not be more thrilled.

Great Speak - Odd Cable Colour

 
4.0
Pros: Great speaker, there are lots of technical reviews on why UE is awesome, so I won't dive into details. Awesome sounds, sleek design, easy to use
Cons: FLUORESCENT YELLOW CABLE I bought the black speaker so that I can put it on a shelf and not have it stand out. With its sleek design it fits in nicely with decor, HOWEVER it comes with a bright yellow charging cable! Apparently this is what it comes with...
Verdict: Love it! So great to have music around the house.

"Easy to take around,good sound, easy to use"

 
5.0
Verdict: Good sounds but as you get into some load base, it starts to resonate a bit. Very easy to carry, tells you how much power it has and basically last me for 2 or 3 days depending on how much I play on it and what kind of music is played. It is water proof and dust proof too.
