Customer Ratings & Reviews

One of my best purchases. Love the sound quality. The size is portable. The color is great. And it waterproof!!

This small cute speaker is the bomb. I freaking LOVE it!!!! Super loud could add 50 speaker at once. Lots of people ask me where I got it when I’m at the pool beach park. Just LOVE IT!!!!

Pretty good sound from a small package, and 2 can link for stereo. Would give it 5 except it loses its mind if you take a call - will not link for stereo after the call until powered down, disconnected and start again from scratch.

Great sound ! Already buy it is Small to carry and I love the color

Nice sounds perfect size good price I use for job side And love it

Verdict: When I received the Wonderboom 3, I was disappointed with the small size and I expected to also be disappointed with the sound. I was so wrong! This little speaker performs quite well for its size and price. This speaker actually hits all the right notes for us: small, powerful, rugged, and well-priced. Initial impressions. It is small. It looks rugged with the rubber ends, rubberized buttons, sealable charging port, and hard mesh. The giant “+” and “-” are a cool design touch. The small blue and gray lanyard looks good while also adding functionality for holding or for clipping the speaker to a bag. Setup. The setup is standard: turn-on the speaker, locate the speaker in your device’s Bluetooth settings, select the speaker, and it works! Sound. The sound is remarkably powerful for the size of the speaker. The mids and highs are quite good: clear and crip. The lows are ok; I would say sufficient for most types of music, and not sufficiently lacking to make an issue of it. At 50% volume, the speaker fills a small to medium room nicely. For a large room or outdoor, we use the speaker at 80% to 90%. Even at max volume, the sound was good. The sound emanates evenly from around the whole speaker (360-degree sound) so it does better when it is placed in the center of a room or a table. Buttons. There are three buttons on the top side of the speaker: one for Bluetooth connection (upper button), one to play/pause/skip (center button), and one to power on/off (lower button). On the bottom side of the speaker, there is one button to toggle on/off the “outdoor” mode. This mode boosts volume and clarity to better suit open outdoor spaces. However, the lack of base becomes more apparent with this mode… we did not like it, and don’t plan to use it. When this mode is on, the “outdoor” button will be lit up. Things I like: - Compact form factor but plenty of power - Rugged design so you can take it everywhere; the rubber and mesh protect the speaker while also looking good - IP67 rating! It can be submerged in one meter of water for 30 minutes! It can also withstand falls, and… it floats!! - I couldn’t test this but it can be paired with another Wonderboom 3 to double the sound, or use as true stereo. We may actually pick up a second one of these to use them in tandem. This is really nice feature! - Long battery life (14 hours) and great range (130 feet) so you don’t have to keep your phone right next to it - The small lanyard adds functionality; the speaker can be clipped to a backpack for example Things I don’t like: - The buttons do not have any identifying function markers on them. While I know what each button does, family members and friends can’t tell what buttons to press to turn the speaker on, connect Bluetooth, or play/pause/skip. It would be better if the speaker permanently showed what was on the removable sticker (when the speaker came out of the box - see photos). - The charging connector is Micro-USB. The new standard for electronic devices is USB-C. I have only a few (older) devices with Micro-USB. It would be great if new devices finally adopted USB-C so that we could carry only one standard cable for all electronics. - For the next generation of Wonderboom speakers, I also recommend including a plug adapter and adding a smart speaker function. Overall, this is a really nice little speaker, with ample power and ruggedness, and at a fantastic price point. Despite the Micro-USB connector choice, this is the speaker we now pack on outings and vacations. I would rate this speaker a 4.5 (rounding up to 5 stars).

UE's latest WonderBoom includes all of the same features of the previous generation and adds additional battery life. The UE WonderBoom 3 comes with a built in non-datachable band, a Micro USB cable for charging, and the speaker itself. The UE WonderBoom 3 is built to stand the elements of your small party or gathering where you are willing to take it. Having an IP67 rating, it is able to withstand dust, water splashes, being submerged in water up to a little over 3 feet (1 meter), and even floats on water. Being made of hard plastic around its edges and a nylon type material surrounding the internal speakers, it can also withstand drops from 5ft (although I dont recommend you do so). On top of that, UE rates the battery lasting for 14 hours. Being a small and compact speaker, it fits in the palm of my hand and packs a decent amount of audio in such a small package. I was surprised at how loud it was for it's size and can see how it is perfect for small parties at a park, cookout, or around a pool. () Compared to other smaller speakers I've owned and used in the past, the WonderBoom 3 produces audio from 360 degrees and wherever it is left, you will be able to hear the audio from all sides of it. On the bottom of the speaker there is a button to enable an Outdoor Boost mode. From my experience, this makes it sound like the audio was given a small boost and vocals in music sound slightly clearer. Another neat feature is the ability to add a second WonderBoom 3 and play audio from both, simultaneously. While this speaker is relatively loud for its size, I found the audio quality lacking in some aspects. Mids and highs were a tinge on the tinny side and slightly muffled. Lows were decent and more pronounced as compared to the higher frequencies. If you were looking to adjust the EQ levels, you would have to do it from the device you're playing audio from, as the WonderBoom doesn't offer any EQ adjustment settings. While audio lacks the details mentioned above, altogether the audio sounds good and is what you would expect from a small speaker. Additional hardware downsides I found include no aux support and the fact it still uses Micro USB versus the new USB C standard. Overall, I enjoyed using the WonderBoom 3 and recommend it to anyone looking for a compact speaker that can get loud and also can withstand the outdoor elements.

For something that is a bit bigger than a softball, this thing puts out some sound. Compact enough to take with you just about anywhere and waterproof to boot. From just listening around the house to the beach, this thing can handle it and keep up with the amount of time you may be out there with 14 hours of battery life, depending on usage. I even tested out its claim of floating and even trying to sink it, it comes right back up. You might have to shake some water out of it to get the sound back to normal. But, it never stopped playing. Connect it just like any other Bluetooth device and off you go. The built in elastic band seems pretty tough to handle most hooks or even a handlebar on a bike, but it doesn’t stretch far enough to get around more than the end, so you may want a carabiner or something to clip to bigger areas. The environment button on the bottom makes a huge difference in sound, dropping bass for more highs. However, outside that makes it travel further and you really don’t notice unless you are up close to it. The volume buttons can’t be missed, but for as big as they are, they adjust the volume pretty slowly, which is fine for small adjustments, but when you want to turn the volume down quick, best to use the connected device itself. Overall, I am really shocked at how loud, clear and rugged this Wonderboom 3 is. It will be going many places with me.

The Wonderboom 3 is an excellent compact, go anywhere Bluetooth speaker. With light weight and handy size it is easy to tote around the yard or on a trip to the beach. Is it a powerhouse for rocking that rave or house party? Probably not, but it is quite nice with a few friends or just for yourself around the house or yard. Very similar in overall look and feel to the previous gen model, the Wonderboom 3 has some small improvements to the build that seem like they were thought out rather than changes for the sake of changes. For example, the previous generation Wonderboom had a simple loop of cord to hang the speaker from something like a carabiner or a small hook/nail. The new model has a piece over the cord material to provide reinforcement and I can see how it would prevent the loop from becoming easily frayed, especially if you frequently put the speaker on and off a hanger. Another nice change was the size and feel of the physical buttons, which are much more prominent and have a more natural push to them. The fabric wrap around the body of the speaker is a little more raised and tactile, and I personally found this made holding the speaker in one hand easier is it was less likely to slip. In terms of sound, I found it quite acceptable for such a small package. With the volume cranked up to max on my phone and the speaker it was capable of putting out an impressive amount of sound without distortion. I’m and no bass fanatic and prefer a good balance of lows and highs, but I personally thought that at very high volume the high end overwhelmed the bass a little bit, making the overall sound a bit thinner. At lower volumes, where I will almost always be using the speaker, the bass was enough to balance the sound just fine and the overall tone was much warmer. Clarity was never a problem at any volume. Sound projects fairly well around the speaker, but I would not go so far as to call it a true 360 degree projection. The sound seems to primarily emanate from the “back” of the speaker, the side opposite the plus/minus control buttons. This isn’t really too noticeable unless you are at a pretty low level and close to the speaker, but it will influence where I would place it in relation to other objects or structures. As of now I just have the one Wonderboom 3, but I am considering picking up a second that I can pair with the one I do have. When using two of these you can create a stereo pair rather than just linking multiple speakers playing both channels. Not always necessary, but still nice when you want it. Connecting the speaker to my phone was a snap, and operation is extremely simple. There is a nice little quick start guide included with the speaker and it covers all the basics of operation quite well. It would have been a plus if this speaker cam with a USB-C or fast charge option, but it comes with just a small micro USB, and it felt like it did take a while to reach full charge out of box. That said, battery life seems to be excellent, and I have been using it on and off for days and it still has significant life. I tend to run it at what I would say is about 50% volume so mileage may vary at higher or lower settings. This sucker FLOATS! To test the claim that this speaker is safe to use around or even in the water I went ahead and dropped it in the pool while playing. 30 minutes later it was still playing just fine. No water made it past the charging port cover, but a lot seemed to get trapped by the porous fabric cover. I would be concerned about the amount of water the cover seemed to hold causing damage if the speaker gets repeatedly or consistently wet. Still, if you place it on the edge of the pool to play music and someone knocks it in, it won’t be ruined as long as the charging port cover is secured in place. I rate this speaker as 5 stars in its category as protected from the elements and highly portable for music on the go.

360 degrees of great sound. Sound does come out of I from all the way around the unit. The tweeter is located only in 1 spot. This little speaker cranks out high volume for a small speaker. Setup was a snap. It paired with my phone without a hitch. Sound is nice. Nice deep base and good highs for a small speaker.. Size is good compact. Super simple operation. On off. Loud button. Pair button. Color is nice. Black and simple design. Charging was easy. Uses micro USB. I wished it was USBc. Hours of operation for battery life is good. It lasted all work day for me. 10 hours and still good. And Did not die. The fact that it is water proof and it FLOATS..... Great to take out in the ocean on a stand up paddle and not be scared to drop in the ocean. I do wish that the little holder was a little bit bigger or had a D ring or something that was a little bit longer to be able to latch on to a water sport device or something. For these reasons I would recommend this product.

Fun little rugged waterproof speaker. Good size for clipping to a backpack, bike basket, or a SUP. Sound is very good for a small speaker. Granted you are not going to get a ton of bass in this size, but it sounds great for its portable and rugged purpose. I love the round "360 sound" that projects in every direction. We attached it to my wife's rear bike basket and both she and I could hear it great with me pedaling behind her (something this speaker does way better than the mono-directional speaker I had on my bike). It is definitely rugged, waterproof, and FLOATS! (see pics) It's now also our hot tub go to speaker and sounds even better bouncing the sound off our back lid. While it doesn't sound spectacular while actually floating in the water, I envision this being perfect to clip to the deck of our SUP or use in a kayak and no worries to recover it if it comes loose because it floats. It has an outdoor "boost" option/switch at the bottom, but I liked how it sounded much better without that option enabled. Still was plenty loud!

I really like the long lasting battery life. I've been playing this speaker here and there for the past week and the battery still going. The loud bass and clear speakers are the best I've heard within this price range. The minimal and small speaker is great for any occasion. I took it in my small backpack and it didn't took a whole lot of space.

Great little speaker. Pairs quickly. Feels nice, fabric, buttons. Quality is very good Sound is awesome! Nice bass and treble. Battery lasts a long time. You won't be sorry buying one.

Great sound and design, it is kinda small which is perfect when you have a little space on your backpack. Great bass sound and really easy to control as the controls are intuitive for the most part. Would recommend buying it if you want Speaker that is not too big!

I got this as a Christmas present for my dad and I've used the very similar Wonderboom 2 for the past few years. I've had a lot of Bluetooth speakers big and small and I haven't found anything that beats how versatile this thing is. It's barely bigger than a soda can and the sound it puts out is just great for how small it is. It fits just about anywhere and you don't have to worry about it getting dirty or wet. The buttons are also very large and easy to press.

Good things come in small packages and this is no exception. Small enough to fit almost anywhere and with good fidelity. Lots of bottom end to compliment the highs and mod range. I mainly use it as a shower speaker. Easy to pair, works well with my TV. Turn it on and it automatically switches. You can also buy another one and it can mate and produce a stereo effect. High quality sound in a small package!

IT gives off great Clear sound and if you want you can buy two of them and have a surround sound. It gets very loud, I love it. You would have never guess that something so small would be so loud and have an amazing quality like this little wonderboom. Hands down I am buying them for christmas stockings this year for my kids.

My favorite speaker, packs a ton of quality and volume in a really small package. The waterproof feature on this works extremely well, I use it in my showers all the time and haven’t had a single problem. I had the wonder boom 2 before this and couldn’t be happier with the upgrade, I’ll be an ultimate ears customer for as long as they keep producing such quality pieces.

Great sound, compact, very light, easy to use. Fit perfectly in my carry on suitcase

Amazing sound from this small powerful full bass speaker. I purchased it to upgrade from a Soundcore unit. Very impressive sound from such a small speaker. The 360 degrees allows it to boom the sound wherever you place it...center of a room, off to a side, on the floor or ceiling. Both Bass and Treble is possible with an equalizer! I tried an Equalizer app I had on my iPhone 13 and it worked nicely with a clarity that usually treble provides. I would not hesitate to purchase more in the future.
