Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM 4 Portable Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker, 360-Degree Sound, Thundering Bass, 147ft Range, 20-Hour Battery, Floating Speaker – Black

Another Great Speaker from Ultimate Ears!
I’ve owned several UE Boom models over the past 10 years and have purchased them as gifts for others. The MegaBoom is my favorite with its rich 360 degree sound, long battery life, and the fact that it’s waterproof and floatable out at the pool. I’ve never actually plunked one in the pool (I’ve used it in the shower though), but I feel confident knowing if it got knocked in, it would be fine.Party Up through the app is amazing and getting even better over the years — I don’t recall the stereo option, but I now can either mirror the speakers so that each has all channels, or I can opt to put them in stereo mode which is pretty darn cool. I would still like UE speakers if they were only standalone devices, but the fact that I can link up to 150 devices and place them in various places for gatherings makes it an undeniably great product! I’ve even borrowed extras from family & friends for big parties.I just bought a new MegaBoom 4 and thought it would be fun to compare to my MegaBoom 3. Honestly, they’re both amazing, and while I could hear a little more depth of sound from the 4 (maybe), the sound was very very similar. If you own a 3, adding a new one is great, but I probably wouldn’t recommend spending on a new one simply to upgrade.I was a little disappointed that the 4 can’t use the Power Up base. It has a USB-C connection, but no ability to dock to a base. I suppose that really shouldn’t matter, but I’ve just found it much easier to ensure it’s always charged if I plop the speaker on its dock and not having to fish out a cord that has fallen behind a piece of furniture because I unplugged the speaker. Silly? Yeah, I know. It’s just a personal preference and I wish they had kept that feature.The MegaBoom device does not have a mic, so it cannnot be used for 2-way communication. The 4 does have the ability to speak into your phone and broadcast your voice through the speaker using the Ultimate Ears app.If you’re in the market for a new portable Bluetooth speaker, don’t hesitate — it’s absolutely worth it. Hint: they’re pretty much indestructible, so if you find one on Amazon Resale (formerly Amazon Warehouse), it’s a great way to get one at a terrific bargain and it’s likely in good shape.Floating in the pool is going to be even better this summer. Can’t wait!

Very good speakers with good bass.
These speakers are very nice and played individually they work great! Super sound including good bass. Unfortunately when we tried to group several (four) together using the UE Boom app on IOS, the bluetooth was breaking up and they would not play “smoothly”. Individually, the bluetooth range is very good. But it deteriorates when playing multiple speakers simultaneously.

Honestly NOT worth the high price
I found this speaker very unimpressive for the exhorbitantly high price. I expected a top end sound with depth and base. There was not. Sound was “tinny” and the speaker dramatically lacked any kind of bass. I tried multiple songs and music genres from my playlist. Comparing it to my $80 Bose Soundlink II and the Bose sounded as good if not better. This is just a fair speaker, nothing in particularly outstanding about it, tho you may like the app for controlling it. I returned mine within a half hour and went with the JBL charge for the same price. I expect that feelable bass and depth from that product. This Ult Ear product would be decent if it were priced at around $100, but no more.Update: As stated I got the CHARGE5 from JBL and it costs around the same as this one. BUT the sound was dramatically superior to the (not so) Ultimate Ears MegaBoom speaker for $200. I’m extremely glad I made the switch to JBL, I get nothing from them for this, except the all around higher quality sound with an appropriate amount of sub woofer to it.If you’re considering which one, then go with the JBL Charge of the Flip is a little cheaper but I do not have one of those. Speaking of cheaper, like I said before, the Bose Soundlink Color 2 is a great quality compact speaker for less than $100, that puts out a rich depth kind of sound. I was hugely disappointed with the Ult Ear, especially at that price point.

Good speakers, not for TV
Not great for connecting to TV. Sound pretty good, but constantly have to be reconnected to TV. When connecting two, the sound is out of synch (echo).

Confiable y satisfecho, totalmente nueva y sin detalles.

This is my opinion, and my view of Megaboom4. Opinions are BS, no one is obliged to personally take them. I read comments about how bad they are, specially if you pair more than one speaker in party mode. I also watched YouTube videos where the reviews are based on only one speaker, but so far mostly I’ve seen are megabomm3 reviews for some reason.When using one speaker, for me, the sound was good, but not so great. Sometimes I had minor, almost fainted chirping distorted sounds coming out the one speaker. The fix was restarting my phone. Then, I bought a seccond megaboom4 speaker.Adding a second Megaboom4 to the Firts Megaboom4 speaker, well, at first they sounded terrible, and it just confirmed what some youtube reviews where there claiming that the speakers can’t pair properly. I heard in YouTube that the songs when played they keep skeeping the music back and forth, and that isinterrupts the songs badly. Yes, this is true, and the chirping static sound was worse with two of the speaker playing at the same time. I was like.. hmm,, yeah. They are bad, but was it worth buying them?So, I was disappointed, but i decided to turn off the speakers, and I restarted my cellphone..and then,, there you have it. Cristal clear sound, in double mod and even in stereo mod. They sound amazing both together, and my bet is that the more speaker you add they will sound better. If you plaxe yiurself in beween them speakers, the base is strong and powerful, and the tones and frequencies of the song played sound great to my ears, but this is my opinion. So, there you have it. No issues with blue tooth when pairing more than one megaboom4, and as for the chirping sound some youtubers and reviewing people talk about? Well, that’s B$..*&^%.. don’t belive them coz I don’t belive them, and I am so grateful I didn’t belive them. I recommend the Megaboom4, I paid 199$ plus tax Canadian dollars for each Megaboom4, but so what? They are a great traveling pair of Megaboom4 speakers for me.

Sounds great
