"The build quality is amazing, thing is a tank (99% sure it could stop a bullet). ... I have it for 5-6 years now, pretty much bought it right after release and its still every bit as good as it was out of the box. ... And I use it day and night, summer and winter, water or ice, be it +30C or -30C whatever."
"Yesss I’ve had my first one for 10 years, second for 7ish, and they’re stellar. ... I’m 10 and 7 years on my two booms respectively"
"I bought a UE mega boom about 7ish years ago and it’s seen some things. ... Used at almost full volume every day in a body shop 5 days a week for 2 of those years. ... Been left out in the rain, dropped, dust covered. Still going strong."

"Yes it's a tank and it's basically waterproof."

"The vocals are clear, the details are crisp, and the bass is very nice, although it is not the kind of deep-overpowered and artificial bass that for example JBL has."
"The sound quality is incredible for the price point, imho."

burzlkek 1.0I have the UE Megaboom 3 and the JBL Flip 6. I prefer the sound and bass of the JBL. Really impressive for its size.
Far_Rub4250 1.0Well I have a UE Megaboom 3 that im in the process of replacing one driver due to my over curiosity but its been the best sounding and most rugged bluetooth portable speaker ive had a nd i love the app with remote power on/off. Pricewise I recommend the Walmart ONN. Rugged Large Portable Bluetooth speaker for under $100 Canadian.
IrwinMFletcher200 1.0Ultimate Ears Megaboom 3 Much better than most listed here, esp the JBL flip. Huge upgrade without a significant jump in cost.
Jefffahfffah 1.0UE megaboom 3 is all I need for a portable speaker. Durable, sounds alright, decent battery life. For headphones my Sennheiser HD1 have been treating me right for years.
JustV3NOM 1.0My 2 cents - amazing speakers, have a MegaBoom 3 right now and let me tell you it sounds miles better than what i’ve owned before. The vocals are clear, the details are crisp, and the bass is very nice, although it is not the kind of deep-overpowered and artificial bass that for example JBL has. The build quality is amazing, thing is a tank (99% sure it could stop a bullet). I have it for 5-6 years now, pretty much bought it right after release and its still every bit as good as it was out of the box. And I use it day and night, summer and winter, water or ice, be it +30C or -30C whatever. Battery is still great, can hold all day without break for sure. I don’t see why so many people keep bashing these speakers for their uniqueness (especially in sound department) and somehow MegaBoom lineup gets the most hate. For me its the best and i’ve owned dozen of them from different brands.
vtwin996 1.0My mega boom 3 is working well. Now the sound it makes isn't up to snuff compared to the competition.
zAuspiciousApricot 1.0MegaBoom 3 or 4 should do the trick.
AnxiousHippoplatypus 0.4Ultimate Ears megaboom rocks. Have and one for nearly 10 years and still punches bass and had great battery and water proofing.
Audiophile_Frog 0.4I can't comment on the Hyperboom as I've never heard one. However, I have heard various generations of the Boom and Megaboom and I can tell you that these definitely don't sound good at all.
