Logitech recently launched their UE Boom, The UE Boom\u00a0is the first-ever social music player, a wireless speaker that\u2019s packed with a specific set of features that sets a new standard for listening to music. It\u2019s the first to offer 360-degree sound in a battery-powered device, and features a 15-hour rechargeable battery. Its versatile go-anywhere shape is wrapped in a specially developed acoustic skin that is both water and stain resistant so you can enjoy your music anywhere you go. And it is made for connecting with others. If more friends crash the party, you can wirelessly connect two UE BOOMs together through the free UE BOOM app (available for iOS\u2122 and Android\u2122) to play them in either stereo-to-stereo mode or traditional left\/right stereo mode.<\/p>\n

I was kindly loaned 2 units of UE Boom for a review opportunity and I had a fun experience with the \u00a0UE Boom. Here are some of my thoughts\/views of the UE Boom<\/p>\n

Pros<\/strong><\/p>\n

– The sound and bass from the UE Boom is pretty good and strong.<\/p>\n

– It’s versatile and you can put it inside your bag or hang it outside, playing music while on the move.<\/p>\n

– The 360 degree UE Boom speaker gives it a surround sound effect if you have a few units playing music together.<\/p>\n

– No wires and no docks needed to play your music with the availability of wireless connectivity<\/p>\n

Cons<\/strong><\/p>\n

– If you like small sized music players, this might be a bit too big and heavy for you.<\/p>\n

– Wireless connectivity is not that smooth for me when I am connecting it to my iPhone UE Boom app.<\/p>\n

Here are some of the key features and technical specifications on the UE Boom listed below<\/p>\n
