"Same! ... Still going strong, has come with me through university and four international moves."
"I’ve had my same speaker since like 2017 and no issues."
"every one i’ve ever had is still going strong after 5, 4, & 3 years (my epicboom is only 2 weeks old, but i fully expect it to be solid)."

"they sound a heck of a lot better than most tool brand speakers, even ones that are a good bit larger. ... the quality of sound is much better."
"I’ve never even been close to max volume and the sound quality is a little better than I expected for the price"
"still great sound"

"all midbass and zero deep bass, muffled and compressed at high volumes"
"they fall short in producing low-bass and rumble ... which is a significant drawback for me as I enjoy the depth and rhythm that low-bass brings to music, particularly in EDM and pop genres."
"lack of low end"

"The thing about these is most of them still only give about *half* the stated runtime in reality. So if they're saying something like 12hrs, they've actually only give 6hrs in typical/real use."

"only a output better. Not worth price difference"
"horrible for their prices."
"What UE does with their dsp is the worst, bassless and sounds all over the place."

"after a couple years of play, they seem to lose volume just a bit. I couldn’t even swear to that since it’s so minimal and i’ve never actually tested the decibel level."

"Company completely no help and ignored my request for a refund or exchange. ... Completely stopped communicating than has the balls to send me a survey asking how they did."
I’d be lost without my UE Boom
r/australia • Bluetooth portable speaker ->Same. Id add the boom 3+ was only a output better. Not worth price difference
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • what’s the best bluetooth speaker in this price range and size? ->I’ve had a number of booms and mega booms. I’ve had the boom for about 8 years and another mega boom for about 3 years. The battery died on another mega boom after about 5 years. Even after replacing the battery it just never worked the same again.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Ultimate Ear speakers over priced and overhyped ->The UE Boom speakers are great, very portable and should be more than loud enough.
r/BuyItForLife • Portable speaker (ideally bluetooth) ->Ultimate Ears Boom 3 is a shit product and the company’s customer service is even worse. After 6 months speaker doesn’t charge. Company completely no help and ignored my request for a refund or exchange. Completely stopped communicating than has the balls to send me a survey asking how they did. Fkg hysterical. Never again will I purchase anything from this company.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • What are your opinions on Ultimate Ears? ->I was surprised that Bose SoundLink Max can't do that, while old UE Boom 3 can.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Bluetooth speaker that can be powered on remotely? ->I have a UE Boom 3 that I got years ago. I'd like a more powerful speaker with proper bass but when I try the bigger 'Boom' versions at the store, they don't sound better. They're just a louder version of the Boom 3 with the same muddy sound and lack of low end 🤷🏻♂️
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Ultimate Ear speakers over priced and overhyped ->For the small portable my affections are always with Bose. Some of my favorite speakers for sound stage, portability, and loud reaching well made BT speakers in super portable, easy to handle packages. I have three of their BT speakers and they really perform. As I get less portable, I stumbled into one not on your list — Logitech’s Ultimate Ears brand — which has some smaller BT speakers as well. They’re really well made and they double down on putting resources into the simple features I care about most (sync, app, weatherproofing etc).
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Best Bluetooth Speakers in 2025? Recommendation? ->I have used JBL Flip 6, Boom 3 and JBL Go 2 and all worked great. i set them on the floor for when I do auffguss and it has never been a problem. I even bring the phone in with me to control the music if needed and if it is in the floor it doesn’t heat up at all
r/Sauna • Harvia wireless sauna Bluetooth speaker ->Regular boom is extremely durable and great for biking as it fits in bottle cage. Have not seen another speaker as durable with 360 sound….but many have better bass. Sound is fine for outdoor use….but for sure they are expensive for what they are. My wking x10 blows it away for sound quality….but much bigger/ heavier + glue and materials are falling apart after 2 years.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Ultimate Ear speakers over priced and overhyped ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
