Our Review

Ultimate Ears Boom 3 Portable Speaker Review

Introduction

The Ultimate Ears brand has been synonymous with robust and vibrant portable speakers, and the Boom 3 model continues this legacy. Since its release, the Boom 3 has carved out a niche for itself among outdoor enthusiasts and casual listeners alike, offering a mix of durability and sound performance in a compact package.

Design and Build Quality

The Boom 3 sports a distinctive cylindrical design, making it instantly recognizable. Its build, encompassing high-quality materials, feels sturdy enough to withstand the rigors of travel. At 608 grams, it’s light enough to carry around without effort, and the added fabric hook only enhances its portability. The IP67 rating ensures peace of mind for users looking to bring their music poolside or to the beach, as the speaker is not just splash-proof but can be submerged in water for up to 30 minutes.

Sound Quality

Ultimate Ears designed the Boom 3 to deliver a 360-degree sound experience, which it achieves through its two 2-inch drivers and two 4-inch passive radiators. The sound is expansive and fills the space well. However, the audio profile is noticeably bass-heavy, which can overshadow mids and trebles, causing a lack of sharpness in certain tracks. At high volumes, some distortion is evident, and while the speaker is loud, it may not satisfy those looking to power a large party with booming sound.

Battery Life and Charging

While the Boom 3 claims a 15-hour battery life, real-world usage indicates a slightly lower endurance, yet it still offers a respectable performance for a day’s outing. The reliance on micro-USB for charging feels dated, especially in an era leaning towards USB-C, but the addition of wireless charging through the Power Up dock—albeit an extra purchase—adds a modern touch to power management.

Connectivity and App Integration

The Bluetooth connectivity of the Boom 3 is commendable, with a range that generally holds up to the advertised 150 feet in open spaces. The companion app is a valuable tool for those who like to fine-tune their listening experience, offering EQ adjustments and remote control capabilities. The 'magic button' on the speaker itself provides direct playback control, which is convenient but could benefit from more tactile feedback.

Features and Functionality

Beyond its sound capabilities, the Boom 3 offers several user-friendly features. It floats, making it a perfect companion for pool parties, and the fabric hook allows for easy hanging in various environments. The lack of a built-in microphone and limited voice assistant support might deter some users who prefer their speakers to double as a speakerphone or smart device.

Pros and Cons

Pros:
- Rugged, waterproof design with a high IP67 rating
- Wireless charging with an optional dock
- Unique design for easy handling and transport
- Multi-speaker connection for a larger audio setup
- Strong 360-degree sound with a focus on bass

Cons:
- Battery life doesn't quite meet the advertised duration
- Sound can lack clarity, with distortion at high volumes
- Micro-USB charging port instead of the more current USB-C
- No built-in microphone for calls or voice control
- Controls could be more responsive

Final Thoughts

The Ultimate Ears Boom 3 is a solid choice for those who value durability and portability in their portable speakers. Its sound performance, while not audiophile-grade, is more than adequate for most casual listening scenarios. If you're in the market for a speaker that can handle the elements and provide a day's worth of tunes, the Boom 3 deserves consideration. However, if your priorities lean towards sonic fidelity and smart features, you may want to explore other options. The Boom 3 stands as a testament to Ultimate Ears' commitment to creating speakers that blend lifestyle utility with enjoyable sound.
