Comparatively poor battery life for size
No buttons to control playback – have to tap the top to play/pause or use mobile device
Large for a portable speaker
The sound distorts a bit at higher volumes
Especially on bassheavy tracks
Not as portable as other speakers unless you've got a backpackit weighs two pounds and is girthier than a bottle of wine
Pricey at £299
Not as portable as the original
The Megaboom's "tap to play" audio controls can be frustrating

There's very little to criticise about the UE Megaboom.It looks great, has ear-shattering sound and some useful bonus features.There are a couple of niggles, such as a fiddly charging port and with a heavy design and no carry handle it's not the most port...
Solid, waterproof build, Good looks, Fires out a punchy, exciting sound, Good battery life,
Difficult to charge and listen at the same time, Treble sounds a little unrefined,
The Megaboom is a great addition to UE's family of wireless speakers and it's arguably the most polished performer in the range.Battery life and build quality are excellent, and whether you use it indoors or outside, you're in for a musical treat...
