But for casual listening, most people will be quite happy with how the Boom 2 sounds.
But hit the speaker with some heavier bass - Miguel's "Coffee" for instance - and things get a little rough around the edges.
It's strongest in the midrange (vocals), so tracks like Sam Hunt's "Take Your Time" or Laura Marling's "Strange" sound quite clean and powerful.

By that I mean that if you're standing 5 to 10m away from the two speakers, the Boom 2 sounds fuller and better overall.Īs comparatively excellent as the Boom 2 sounds, it still exhibits the performance shortcomings that all these compact Bluetooth speakers exhibit - even the best ones like the Boom 2. The Charge 2+ also sounds good outdoors, but it doesn't have the range that the Boom 2 does. (Remember, too, that the step-down saucer-shaped UE Roll, also half the price of the Boom 2, remains a great option.) However, those speakers are more directional while the Boom 2 casts a wider sound field - UE touts its 360-degree sound - and really excels in outdoor listening tests. If you're on a budget, the JBL Charge 2+ or the step-down Flip 3 (half the price of the Boom 2) are arguably the better values. The JBL couldn't play as loud, but it's a little warmer speaker with boomier bass (the Boom 2's bass is punchier) and some people may prefer its sound. To compare, the Bose Soundlink, one of the best Bluetooth speakers available, only has a range of 30 feet. The UE Boom 2, on the other hand, doubles that range to 100 feet, meaning you'll have incredibly clear sound from really far away.
We next put it up against the JBL Charge 2+, which retails for about $70 less. The UE Boom 1 boasts a 50-foot mobile range, which is rather impressive for Bluetooth.
