Like the rest of UE's lineup, this one's capabilities are nestled in its free companion app, too. Listeners who insist that a speaker's worth relies heavily on its feature set will be pleased with the Megaboom. Walking around the speaker, it's much harder than it used to be (but still possible) to find a 'dead spot' in the sound delivery. The 360-degree audio effect, which we found to be improved in the Boom 2 over its original, was also noticeably better here. Every genre of music that we lobbed at it sounds vibrant and expansive.
Providing a full, room-filling experience has long been a strong suit of UE's cylindrical Bluetooth speakers, and the larger hardware is just as worthy of the accolade.
The Megaboom boasts a powerful sound that's filled with crispness and heady bass.
