Ultimate Ears, which was acquired by Logitech in 2008, has clearly produced a very popular Boom product series.
The UE Boom is a 360-degree portable speaker, which launched in the winter of 2013 and has been well-received in the New Zealand market. It's easy tounderstand why Kiwis like it due to it's clever design, great sound and portable nature.
The UE Boom doesn't appear very large when one experiences it for the first time: it's essentially a cylinder-shaped tube 60 mm in diametre and in 190 mm height that weighs 0.55 kg. Its centre of gravity is located near the the base, which makes it quite stable and it isn't likely to fall over in case someone accidentally bounces into it. There's a hook at the top so that it can be hung up.
The speaker is wireless and Bluetooth enabled, and can easily be controlled by Android and iOS mobile apps. This means that you can play and share all your songs on your phone during the barbeque or birthday party. The 15 hour battery life and high sound ensure a pleasant audio experience.
The price around $200 is relatively high compared to other portable speakers sold in New Zealand, but Kiwis perceive it as offering high value.
The successor to UE Boom is the Logitech UE Boom 2. Kiwi audiophiles should also consider the UE MegaBoom. The UE Mini Boom and the UE Roll come at a cheaper price tag and retails at around $130.

I use this all the time, everywhere and beat it up. Only thing I regret is getting it in white, it is a little dingy now. This thing has been tossed around, rained on, in the shower, on the beach, and used to carry around the house in different rooms. Pairs easily with my phone, laptop, or Apple TV.
Was initially really impressed with this speaker but within the year, it developed a really annoying vibration on the bass which rendered it unusable. Not sure if I just got a duff one, but I wouldn't recommend this, sadly, as have had several Logitech products previously & I rate the brand.
Very bad , both speakers dead . It's been just 6 months since I bought it. Should've just gone for the flip 3
Love it it for the following reasons: 1.Really loud. 2.Don't feel cheap on your hand, the rubber material makes it feel safe in your hands. 3.Long Battery life. I used it for 2 hours and it only used 15% of battery!
This speaker is AWESOME. really impressed. Hands down favourite speaker. I prefer this much more over the Bose Soundlink II, since the latter sounded like a transistor radio with a tin can over it. The UE Boom sounds clear and full at high volumes, even outside.
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.
Yes the product works as designed. However it (the driver) ended up causing a problem with other devices on Windows 10. After uninstalling the driver and power cycling you will notice UE boom driver still shows up. Looking at the registry (post removal) you will find UE boom all over.
Works as speaker; but can corrupt your OS
Once you install the UE Boom driver; good luck getting rid of it
As portable device speakers go, the UE Boom, really is quite spectacular. If anyone is familiar with the Henry Kloss Tivoli Audio radios and think they are good, well these are just as good.
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.
Great sound quality for form factor; Long Bluetooth range; Light; portable design
Struggles with sub-bass frequencies; Slight distortion at higher volumes
Love these speakers, the sound quality is unreal! Did my research prior to purchasing them and they are the best portable Bluetooth speakers on the ma
