Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 2 review | Trusted Reviews

 

UE has succeeded again with the Wonderboom 2, delivering a great and big sound - as well as throwing in some useful features to boot

Huge sound ; Easy to use ; 13-hour battery life ; Outdoor Boost is useful

Not much of note

With the Wonderboom 2, UE succeeds again – delivering a superb, big sound, with some useful features to boot – for the same price as the original at launch. Even though that model is now available at almost half its price, the Wonderboom 2's...

Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 2 review: still the best cheap Bluetooth speaker

 

The Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 2 has surprisingly big sound for something so small

13 hours of battery ; Great sound quality ; Small, lightweight and waterproof

Basic features, no manual EQ ; Uses Micro-USB not USB-C

The Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 2 is a portable speaker that you can use just about anywhere. It's completely waterproof, dustproof and it weighs less than 500g. You can expect powerful sound inside and even outside. It is pretty basic, but what it does...

Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 2 review

 

The original UE Wonderboom has been at the top of our best waterproof speaker list since its debut and for good reason: It's rugged, plays louder than its diminutive sound suggests, and could be paired to other UE Wonderboom speakers to amplify sound....

Great sound for its size IP67 dustproof/waterproof rating 30% better battery life Relatively cheap

Restrictive soundstage No speakerphone MicroUSB charging No 'smart' features

The UE Wonderboom 2 features a slightly tweaked design, better bass response, longer battery life and Outdoor Boost make it an even better companion when you’re outdoors. Its ruggedness, sound quality, and features solidify the Wonderboom 2 as one of...

Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 2 review: Stereo pairing sounds even sweeter

 

It's a repeat performance for the Wonderboom, with this second iteration being every inch as good as the first model. What's new?

Great sound quality ; Plenty of bass ; Stereo pairing ; Good battery life ; Compact design

Uses older Micro-USB connection ; The older model is almost just as good for less cash

This second iteration Wonderboom is every inch as good as the first model. It's an easy recommendation if you're after a compact Bluetooth speaker that will do it all, offer all-round protection and a bassy 360-degree sound. You can even stereo pair...

Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 2 review: Back with a splash

 

The Ultimate Ears Wonderboom is back and it sounds fantastic

Floats and is dust and water-resistant ; Louder than its predecessor in outdoor mode ; Fun sound signature

Expensive versus the original Wonderboom ; Only supports the Bluetooth SBC codec

Ultimately, the differences between the new Wonderboom 2 and the original are small. Instead, Ultimate Ears has set out improve things iteratively and, in principle, it has achieved exactly that. The new outdoor mode, added dust protection, stereo...

Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 2 Bluetooth speaker review: A small, sturdy design can't offset poor sound quality

 

It's nice that the Wonderboom 2 is hardened against water, dust, and drops, but that doesn't mean much when it produces thin sound and wimpy bass.

Tiny ; Waterproof, dustproof, drop-proof ; Two can be linked into a stereo pair

Thin, closed-in sound ; Wimpy bass ; Expensive for what's delivered

I am entirely unimpressed with the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 2. It sounds thin and closed in, and its bass is anemic. Linking two into a stereo pair provides good stereo separation, but that does nothing to improve the overall sound quality.

UE Wonderboom 2 Review: This $100 Bluetooth Speaker Packs a Big Punch

 

There are lots of small portable Bluetooth speakers, and for good reason: People like taking their music with them, wherever they go. Unfortunately, most small Bluetooth speakers sound small — tinny and lacking bass. But Ultimate Ears' $100 Wonderboom...

Full bass for a small speaker Waterproof and dustproof

No app No visual battery life indicator

Get the UE Wonderboom 2 if you're looking for a small Bluetooth speaker that doesn't sacrifice much sound quality.
