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.

Adam got a chance to check out the James Reka special edition UE Boom 2, but great art aside is it better than the original

Sound; Price

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.

Ultimate Ears' UE Boom 2 speaker definitely has some positives such as long battery life, and a good sound quality

The UE Boom 2 delivers crisp, clean, loud and powerful audio, alongside being light and quirky. It is one of the best portable Bluetooth speakers we have tried of late.

Very clean audio delivery; Good audio balance; Warm; wholesome soundstaging; Ample loudness levels; Good battery life

Slight muddle at highest volume

Puts out a lot of sound for such a small speaker. Sound quality is also pretty good and plenty loud for any room in the house or outside patio. Fits perfectly into my car's cup holder at chest level so I can use it while driving - nice bonus! EQ customization phone app is pretty cool.

There are some improvements over its predecessor, and we've explored these in-depth in our review. Read on to find out everything we know about the UE Boom 2 Bluetooth Speaker.

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

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...

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.
