Verdict

The Logitech UE Mobile Boombox is an ultra-compact portable Bluetooth speaker measuring 4.4 x 2.4 x 2.4 inches and weighing just 10.5 ounces. It features two 1-inch full-range drivers, a passive bass radiator, a built-in microphone for speakerphone functionality, and a 3.5mm auxiliary input. Main pros include its durable rubberized casing, an impressive 50-foot wireless range, a 10-hour rechargeable battery life, and multi-person access that lets two devices connect simultaneously. However, its main cons include a lack of a physical battery life indicator, missing integrated track navigation controls, and bass that tends to become muddy or distorted at maximum volume levels.
