Logitech UE Megaboom Bluetooth Speaker

The UE Boom has long been hailed as the best portable Bluetooth speaker on the market, but times are changing. Ultimate Ears (subsidiary of Logitech) went back to the drawing board, and came up with a bigger, badder version of the beloved Bluetooth speaker in the UE Megaboom.

UE’s latest offering looks like a super-sized version of the original Boom, and that’s because it is. It looks nearly identical to the original speaker, but has seen in an increase in both size and performance. The rugged Bluetooth speaker features a 20-hour rechargeable battery that charges using a standard USB cable, is completely waterproof (one meter of water for up to 30 minutes), and features the same 360-degree sound output the Boom was known for. Users can listen to the speaker on its own, or paired with another Megaboom/Boom through the companion app on both iOS and Android powered devices. It may be larger than the Boom, but at 1.9 pounds, the UE Megaboom speaker is still quite portable. Expect to spend $300 for this bad boy. [Purchase]
