Sound Grenade…,
Logitech has a high bar to jump to compare to Jawbone’s Big Jambox, but they actually make a Good Case! This Awesome ‘lil speaker is 1/2 the size of a Big Jambox, but goes almost as Low w/the Base and almost as high w/the Volume. PLUS they have a free app to run two together as a stereo pair thru Bluetooth – that’s where they get 5 stars. In general, this Soda-can sized speaker produces as much sound, including bass, as a mid-sized Boom-Box. Truly Miraculous, especially when U consider it’s also a Bluetooth speakerphone (that sounds really good, both directions). Can’t wait ’till gen2! It’s Good Times for us Nerds!!

|18 HOLES OF GOLF – NO PROBLEM!!!,
Ok – so I am not the most up to date kind of fellow but when my buddy brought a little 25 dollar speaker onto the golf course I was like, “yeah, I like that, I need something like that.”
So I started with the HMDX Jam…hmmm 50 bux, fits in the cupholder. Sound was decent, about hole 15, bluetooth streaming – DEAD
Next up – JBL flip – better sound, 100 bux, Hole 16 dead.
So after all that money(got some back from Ebay), I order this for 200 bucks plus shipping so I spent about 230 total.
I got it yesterday at 3 pm. I took it straight out of the box. Charged it for the 10 minute drive to the course and played 18.
This bad boy was still playing while I loaded up my clubs!!
Sound is spectacular. It goes too loud really for a golf course which would turn into a bonus for say a pool party or garage buddy.
The GOOD NEWS?
I am DONE looking for a bluetooth speaker that lasts, sounds good and gets loud enough. Do I wish it was a 130 or 140$? Sure, was I willing to pay a little more to not have to keep looking?
WELL WORTH THE EXTRA MONEY!

|Excellent Speaker, Loud.,
I’ve been looking for good Bluetooth speaker since I finished my Bluetooth capable PC just recently and with my iPhone 5 as well.
I’ve tried out the Jambox, JBL Flip, and Logitech Mobile Boombox before I owned the UE Boom.
The sound of the Jambox was not full, felt the bass was emphasized over the music.
The Flip had issues of generating a small “pop” sound between new sounds. Small, but annoying.
The Logitech Mobile Boombox was good, small, microUSB charger. However, the speaker didn’t have any bass.
All three returned.
Now onto the UE Boom. This is the first speaker that Ultimate Ears markets without the Logitech name.
The sound from the UE Boom sounds richer and clearer compared to the Jambox and Flip. The speaker can go just as loud as the Flip and has incredibly little distortion.
The bass? It’s less pronounced compared to the Jambox or the Flip. Better than the Mobile Boombox. However, it’s decent for a speaker of this size.
As an audiophile, I prefer clarity and precision of sound over excessive bass. This fits the spot. Enough bass, but not enough to compromise the beauty of my music. Portable (size of a 16.9 oz water bottle), microUSB charger, easy Bluetooth connectivity, dedicated app for iPhone to check battery charge all stand up for the price. Would I wish for it to be cheaper? Of course. But this is great for what it does. I’m done with my search for a portable Bluetooth speaker. I highly recommend this speaker.
