Funny. Im listening to this review on the boom right now

[@CaptainBackslap22]

Same I just bought it and I hate it. No way is this thing good for music. Very flat and no bass even after maxing it out with the equalizer. Can’t believe all the rave reviews for it online!! Returning mine and currently searching for something that play music clearly and fills a room up. This thing def does NONE of those

[@ALJessica]

This is not a proper review. This is an advertisement for the product. Where are the conclusion? Where are the opinions? How does it hold up to the competition? Is it worth the money? Whats the pros and the cons? What should be changed, improved or done different? A review should answer, if not all, then most of the questions Stated above.

[@AnyBodyWannaPeanut]

This is exactly how I felt about this "review".

[@caileenbeanin]

I love how positive and happy you sound while describing this product! Have been looking for a good bluetooth speaker to suit my needs as an adventurous, somewhat clumsy music lover. I'm sold! Thank you so much!! ❤️

[@KungKokkos]

Its almost like he is promoting it, instead of reviewing it. He is clearly sponsored, no word of the infamous 10 hour batter rather than 20 that most user reviews mention, for example.

[@BaddaBigBoom]

@@KungKokkosThat's what I thought, I have a standard Boom and want to upgrade, not interested in the docking bit or the "magic button" just more bass and volume, I quite like the tripod mound of the Boom too, going the check the Megaboom 2

[@jeremygreen72414]

Hands down one of the better bluetooth speakers out right now..

[@BobK5]

I have two of these and they’re great for me. The only downside is that if you pair up the speakers and watch a video the video and audio do not sync up, you can use 1 speaker for videos and it’s great.

[@SarkkiKarkki]

That's kind of a big problem.

[@robertcomer2767]

I bought this after buying the megabass and only now I find out it has no mic and therefore no alexa. In my opinion an absolute waste of money

[@duncanandrews534]

The Mega Boom 3 won;t connect for Phone calling on my Samsung Note 3, only for Music, I;m a Professional driver and need to call customers, if I'd known this non phone calling disability I would not have bought this speaker, while the sound quality is good, sometimes you need to use the phone calling feature, a pretty basic feature that should be addressed, I'll be looking for another speaker system, so if you need phone calling connectivity, DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT.

i believe is better than JBL...JBL has to much bass

[@jeremyphilander8833]

This is like a big wonderboom 3. .It's shockingly bad bass...the design is flawed. Don't even bother to waste your cash. I bought this, after my JBL charge 3 died. Not for critical listening.

[@one80sx]

The bass is shockingly bad on this. Just got one and was very disappointed by the bass

[@LoverIsaDayy]

Hello fellow consumer, Still deciding on whether this is a good purchase? Here are some important notes before you buy that I wish I knew: - this product was made in 2018 so it still has the mini USB to USB cable that old androids used to have, I saw this as a negative. - If you want bass, go for the JBL. The mega boom has good sounding quality but it doesn’t have the volume or bass of a JBL. I had to use this for work and it needed to be 80% volume to reach me. The farther you get, the more muffled it sounds, horrible ! - This speaker has poor Bluetooth range, I couldn’t stand further than 11 feet before it cuts out. - This speaker stands 9 inches tall or 23 Cms. It’s a good decorative furniture and I would say it’s best indoors as the 360 sound will bounce off walls and ceiling. - The app lets you turn off or on the speaker from a distance. So in conclusion, get a JBL instead, this speaker is old. If you still want it, get it when it’s on sale. Happy shopping!

[@brandonsargent7105]

okay jbl employee

[@LoverIsaDayy]

@@brandonsargent7105 lmaoo i guess i do sound superficial but it’s all true, I spent years finding a good speaker and the Bose or JBL are the best. Eu doesn’t have bass at all or the range

[@one80sx]

I agree, your review is spot on. I was so disappointed by the bass and the Bluetooth range is crap too. It has some great qualities too but If I could go back and chose something else I would

[@LoverIsaDayy]

@@one80sx man just return it, that’s what I did, I recommend the JBl pulse 5 btw, it’s good aesthetic or for outdoors a party box is always great

[@caribbeanbound8357]

I have listened to JBL and BOSE in this price range and the Mega Boom is still better for clarity and sound quality in my opinion. The bass is awesome as well. You are right about range, but I dont need a speaker to be on if im 150 feet away anyhow. I usually just leave my phone next to the speaker if I'm playing basketball or working in my yard. As far as the charger, yes it needs to be upgraded to USB-C but if this is really an issue, then your life has been too easy.

[@1971billbass]

battery sucks last 2 hours

This is a buy me review.

[@FergusYoung]

Sounded rubbish IMO compared to my old existing UE Boombox purchased for the same price back in 2012. The “Thundering Bass” claim of the UE Megaboom 3 I feel is tantamount to outright false advertising. Has the weakest relative bass response out of all the Logitech audio products I have, even with trying to use the equalizer in the official UE app. Expected better from Logitech. Disappointed. Returned.
