SeekerUltimate Ears WONDERBOOM 3
The Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 3 is great for outdoor use. It's rated IP67 for dust and water resistance, meaning it's fully dust-tight and immersible in up to a meter of water for 30 minutes, so you can take it outside without worrying about getting it wet. It's even advertised to float in water, so you can float your music around with you while you relax in the pool. The manufacturer advises rinsing the speaker with fresh water whenever you expose it to salty or chlorinated water. It's incredibly portable with a built-in hook you can use to attach it to your bags when you're on the go. Also, while it doesn't get incredibly loud, there isn't much compression at max volume, so your favorite songs sound clean and clear when you blast the speaker. Its long-lasting battery life of over 22 hours makes it great for long listening sessions spent outdoors.

The outdoor-friendly Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 3 speaker has a cool design and produces stereo sound, but you don't get many extra features and its drivers sometimes struggle to handle deep bass.

The Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 3 may not have changed much from its predecessor, but it fits the bill as a low-cost portable speaker: it’s durable, portable and affordable, with decent audio quality. It’s not going to blow audiophiles away – or anyone who wants modern USB connectivity – but these points are easy to overlook in light of the Wonderboom 3’s positives.

The Wonderboom 3 is, like the two speakers before it, a great compact option that does brilliantly in the elements. For the first time, its use of Micro USB is genuinely off-putting but, apart from that, it's a shoo-in as one of the very best portable Bluetooth speakers out there.

Little has changed in the Wonderboom 3, but you get great audio, long battery life, and a durable design – what’s not to love? Well, the Micro-USB port for one, but otherwise this remains a great buy.

Físicamente, pocas cosas han cambiado en el Wonderboom 3, pero debes saber que obtienes un potente sonido, una batería de larga duración y un diseño duradero. ¿Qué es lo que menos me gusta? Su puerto de carga Micro-USB que, en 2023, es un lastre.

A few tweaks rather than massive changes would appear to make the Wonderboom 3 a safe update, but the audio is the best it’s been, enough to cement its position as one of the smarter budget portable speaker buys.
