#UE BOOM FOR ANDROID#

The UE Boom 3 can only be paired and used with Bluetooth, and there is an app for Android and iOS that improves the usage experience. The sales package of the UE Boom 3 includes a charging cable but no wall adapter.

#UE BOOM DRIVERS#

While the quality of the drivers tends to matter more for wireless speakers, it's still a significant omission for such an expensive product. Disappointingly, there is no high-quality aptX codec support, so users will be limited to streaming using the SBC codec. The speaker has two primary drivers and two passive radiators, with a frequency response range of 90-20,000Hz and a 90dB peak output. There is no 3.5mm socket for wired audio connectivity and no microphone for hands-free calling these are surprising omissions for a speaker that costs Rs. Apart from the dated Micro-USB charging port, there are a couple of key features missing on the speaker. A single tap of the button serves to play or pause, while a double tap skips to the next track.īut this is where the positive side of the UE Boom 3's simplicity ends.

#UE BOOM BLUETOOTH#

The top has three illuminated buttons - one for power, the second for Bluetooth pairing, and the third is a multi-function button for playback and track skipping. While some people might find the lack of buttons and functions disappointing, we were impressed by the simplicity of the speaker in some ways. Additionally, the rubberised finish at the top and bottom of the speaker looks modern and sophisticated, while giving it decent grip and hand-feel. There are three colour options available in India: black, blue and red, with the blue and red colours looking best in our opinion. The fabric wrap protects the drivers from water and also looks great in our opinion, especially because it changes colour a bit under different levels of light. Interestingly, the speaker is also shock resistant, rated to survive drops from up to five feet. This means that you can immerse the speaker in up to 1m of water for 30 minutes without fearing any damage, assuming you've properly sealed off the Micro-USB port at the bottom with its water-tight flap. However, the speaker is a bit taller than its predecessor when placed upright, and is also a fair bit heavier, although this doesn't make a big difference to the portability of the speaker.Īs was the case with the Boom 2, the UE Boom 3 is rated to be ‘waterproof', which is to say it has an IP67 rating.

The cylindrical shape and fabric-wrapped exterior reminded us of the Boom 2, as did the large rubber volume controls in the shape of ‘plus' and ‘minus' symbols - only the middles of both buttons are actually clickable. The mission is to provide top-notch sound effects and source recordings in high definition.There are a few significant changes in the way the speaker looks, but the UE Boom 3 largely retains the design and form of its predecessor.
