I happened to find a Boom 3 fairly recently. It was abandoned in the street, a little dirty, but still workable. It even was well charged, so it basically was a piece of serendipitous luck I found it. Thankfully I was on my regular walk that day, and managed to find something out of the usual.
It was a great review and by a woman - why should't be a thing but whenever I Google for a review it's usually men so it was really refreshing. Really happy I found you
Love my T-Mobile version Megaboom 3. Use it at my work and the sound is very good and love the fact that its very durable, completely waterproof, mud, dust, snow etc
Awesome Review! I chose the Megaboom 3, listened to the boom 3 in stores it sounded good but really lacked bass. Love my megaboom really happy i made that choice! Thankyou!
These speakers are great - I have both the Boom 3 and the Megaboom, but the app is crap. (I have an Android). That's not a big problem if you just want to use these as vanilla BT speakers - they're loud and low distortion, and I love that they're waterproof. The Megaboom has great bass - the Boom 3 is just adequate. But don't count on the app.
The Mega Boom 3 most Be Awesome every body that talk about The Boom 3 & Mega Boom 3 alway if you are going to get a use boom Speakers get the the mega boom 3 Thank you I can’t wait here your what you have to say about the JBL Extreme 2 keep up the good work
0:55 Unfortunately the large center button **isn't** the Power Button - it's actually the new "Magic Button". The Power Button is the smaller button just in front of the center button.
I get thundering bass because I went into the app and custom made my own EQ so I put the bass all the way up and the treble all the way up and it gives me so much thundering bass.
The new megablast has voice control and Alexa but you have to have a Spotify subscription to be able use voice control for your but for Alexa it is great
Thanks for the video, very informative! I have a question; a friend of mine introduced me to the Boom 3, she has one, and we've enjoyed a few spontaneous hallway dance parties with that thing - it's so easy to hold and dance at the same time! It seems that the Megaboom 3 has better sound quality but... would you say that it's too large to comfortably and easily hold in your hand while you're having a boogie?
Sad to hear someone having better luck with these speakers than I have. I have returned probably 5 of these speakers and after the 5th one the best buy employee kicked me out of the store saying it was my fault.....
15 hours and 20 hours in 50% volume, but my test shows you never get 15 and 20 hours in these speakers. Well!! 100% volume you get maximum 4 hours which is just OK. I really like UE series Bluetooth speakers! 👍👍👍
Nice review Erin. As far as sound quality how would you compare it to Alexa? I guess what I am wondering is if you have an Alexa why would you need a blue tooth speaker. I don't have the Amazon Alexa but was seriously thinking about getting it but lately I have been leaning towards the new Google Home Hub.
Hi Mr Bob, thanks for watching. It’s very comparable to the sound quality of an Amazon Echo. The bonus of Echo is that you do get Alexa voice control. If you already have an Echo you would definitely not need this speaker also.
Is it ever hard/complicated to pair a Bluetooth speaker? Iol. Appreciate the bass descriptions. These things are handy, but as all portable speakers, they lack bass and thus depth
Erin Lawrence, I moved from Pixel 2 XL and I was a bit skeptical. But, my experience has been really great. That Forest Green leather case is great too :)
Good luck! I have two megaboom 3s. They rarely work as they should. Usually takes between 2-5mins to get them to play along. A lot of times one speaker doesn’t work. Then you gotta disconnect everything. And try from scratch. It’s a nightmare.
Hey, lovely video but I recently got a new ultimate ears mid October. When I put it in the water it doesn’t really float and when half submerged it cuts out. I thought it worked under water. Please help
My understanding is the speaker floats so you can retrieve it if it falls in, and the water resistance is in case of accidents. I don't think it's actually designed to play under water.
Be careful.. couple weeks i tried to download latest firmware to my boom 1 for the first time ever and it crashed midway and completely bricked the speaker. the power light won't even turn on. i wish i had not tried to update the firmware as i was enjoying it just fine..
by the way i 've tried all the various reset methods but nothing changes. completely bricked . i also spoke with customer service but as my speaker is >2years old the warranty will not be honoured .. despite it was totally their firmware upgrade that broke it. my last option is to open it up, remove battery 30s and then re-install battery and hope it goes through its own bootup cycle to load default firmware from memory... otherwise, time to get a new MegaBoom 3 :D
Sonos is wireless in that it doesn't need speaker wire to connect it; but it does require constant AC power, so it's always plugged in. Whereas the Boom speakers are fully wireless and run off a rechargeable battery.
Seriously. One megaboom 3 is good. But stick two together?!? And you’ll have nothing but frustration. Constant disconnects. Not playing etc. They’re a nightmare when you try to party up.
I JUST GOT THE MEGABOOM 3 ITS Amazing I set my custom EQ it is amazing and I found out that it comes from more of the two sides than the front

That's what I call a review!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for telling the truth about the bass quality on their speakers.
Awesome Review! I chose the Megaboom 3, listened to the boom 3 in stores it sounded good but really lacked bass. Love my megaboom really happy i made that choice! Thankyou!
Oh wow its amazing wireless speakers
ANNA FRANK Shelo no it’s not🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s an excellent analysis. Although I wish I knew an update of what you think about them now 2 years later.
I only had them on short term loan, so I wish I could say...
Another great review, Erin. Keep up the great work!!
Hi Les. Thank you!!
Well done Erin! I picked up the Megaboom, and quite like it....thanks for the video!

Nice review thank you it actually help me
Glad I could help
Great job.

say thundering bass on more time
Which of the speakers?
Great review. Which speak apart from these have deep bass?
How can I even watch this video without daydreaming into her eyes lol
The new megablast has voice control and Alexa but you have to have a Spotify subscription to be able use voice control for your but for Alexa it is great

It's alright.. I have to stay in the app for it to work
Valid

PRices are 149 vs 199
you need a pop filter for your voice mic

@@ErinLawrenceTV thank you for information. I appreciate it.
I know I'm 5 years late, but how do I get the UE Megaboom app on my laptop?
Is it ever hard/complicated to pair a Bluetooth speaker? Iol.
Appreciate the bass descriptions.

I have tried some BT speakers that are buggy and won't connect, so, yes! ;)
Dear, I have iPhone XS Max as well. I use the forest green leather case 😀
Max power!!
Erin Lawrence, I moved from Pixel 2 XL and I was a bit skeptical. But, my experience has been really great. That Forest Green leather case is great too :)
Ha ha love your DE razor best way to shave keep on rock and roiling 🐞👍😎
Angel yo so close 10000 subscriber. Now you have a 9995 subscriber. Missing 5
What’s wrong with mega boom if you notice it’s just the upper part of the speaker playing?
has anyone actually partied up 150 units and measured dB? that would be crazy
Good luck! I have two megaboom 3s. They rarely work as they should. Usually takes between 2-5mins to get them to play along. A lot of times one speaker doesn’t work. Then you gotta disconnect everything. And try from scratch. It’s a nightmare.
Hi Erin did you test Phone calling?
Is the metal in the bottom rust proof? Why does Deezer only play 30 seconds on music?
How is the microphone?

Hello ...can I connect my boom 1 with megaboom 3 at the same time?
Hmmm. Good question. I don’t know if the older ones connect to the new.
Be careful.. couple weeks i tried to download latest firmware to my boom 1 for the first time ever and it crashed midway and completely bricked the speaker. the power light won't even turn on. i wish i had not tried to update the firmware as i was enjoying it just fine..

I guess I can tell from listening to YOU instead of the speakers?!
Both speaker is 90db ? N which model is the latest
Can you charge a phone off them?
can you turn on these speakers with your smartphone with the ue boom app?
Yes you can
Good job! Only question I have is there any difference between the Sono and Megaboom? Thanks!
Thank you! Between a Sonos, like the Play1, and the Megaboom? yes there is a huge difference in quality and features.
Erin Lawrence Hey Erin! In What way? Thanks beautiful Erin!
Well, Sonos is a wired AC speaker, it's much higher quality and not portable. it's also got voice control now with the new updates.
I thought if I understood Sono is wireless between numbers of speakers.
Sonos is wireless in that it doesn't need speaker wire to connect it; but it does require constant AC power, so it's always plugged in. Whereas the Boom speakers are fully wireless and run off a rechargeable battery.
Can they be used as a speaker using wireless headphones for presentations
I think if you can get it paired to your computer or whatever device you are using to present, then yes! And provided the room is not too large
Seriously. One megaboom 3 is good. But stick two together?!? And you’ll have nothing but frustration. Constant disconnects. Not playing etc. They’re a nightmare when you try to party up.
1:00 That's not the power button, that is the magic button. I thought failing to read the included instructions was a guy thing. :D
I’ve heard so many times people say how these speakers last like 15 hours. Bruh, mine lasts not even 4 hours wtf
There is no boom here, crap (boom 3)! But you can always pray in front of it :D
Hure💥💥ANGEL Now you have a 10000 subscriber. Now party time and giveway time 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎊🎊🎊🎉🍾🍻
Coming soon....
boom 3 is rubbish. Spend the extra money and get megaboom
