  • Open your eyes Lew, It's time for another video!

  • What's up guys, Lew back here with another video.

  • And as you can tell, I've got a few items today, it's not just one.

  • This is a big chunk of the lineup, as far the Ultimate Ears portable Bluetooth speakers are concerned,

  • AJ actually put me on to it, he was like: "Dude, these are the speakers."

  • So you can hold him accountable if these things end up sucking.

  • Which I'm pretty sure they don't...

  • popcorn in my teeth...

  • We've got a $100, $200, and $300 price points.

  • And this one... This is the top dog in the food chain over here.

  • It has IPX7 waterproof functionality,

  • 20 hours of battery life, 100 feet of range,

  • And, you can connect multiple units to create a stereo experience.

  • Now the other ones have similar features as well.

  • This little guy here... Which is called the "Roll",

  • is also IPX7 waterproof.

  • It's got a little bit less battery life, and a little bit less range.

  • Because it's smaller of course, and less expensive.

  • But, there is an accessory to actually make this one... A "floatable" speaker.

  • Floatable... Floatable...

  • Is that even a w-... Floating?

  • But maybe you're in a lake or something, or on a boat...

  • Or even on your pool and you want your music close by.

  • You've got this little guy floating around.

  • It's kinda cute...

  • This one on the left is probably the most boring at all.

  • Also happens to be the one that AJ owns and raves about... Everyday.

  • It doesn't have waterproof capabilities,

  • But... It's water resistant, which is better than nothing.

  • Still got decent battery life... Decent range,

  • And it fits kinda in between price-wise.

  • I assume it fit in between sound-wise as well.

  • I'm g- I'm... I'm gonna do this big one first... Let me see if I-... What I'm doing here...

  • Aww, man.

  • Oh yeah... The names. This is the "Megaboom".

  • The "Boom".

  • "Boom", "Megaboom",

  • And "Roll".

  • Look at thi- Whoa!

  • Is this also a carrying case?

  • Whoa...

  • OK... That's...

  • Wow...

  • There's a little sticker here... This w-

  • Oh!

  • Look at this!

  • Got a little flat cable... nice and bright,

  • USB... Micro USB...

  • For charging it up, and fits right in there...

  • This thing feels solid as well.

  • Couple of flaps... One for auxiliary and one for your micro USB.

  • You've got your power on this side here as well as a Bluetooth button.

  • GIANT buttons for volume...

  • The power brick, look at that...

  • Bright... You're not gonna lose that.

  • That's gonna me tough to lose.

  • Let's do the little guy here.

  • Real quick... There are applications for each of these,

  • That you can install in Android and iOS.

  • I'll be booting those up very shortly.

  • They ship the whole thing in like...

  • WHAT?

  • Wow!

  • Wow, feels solid...

  • *music playing* Oh...

  • Cool... Same cool cable, no power brick.

  • Let's pair this up...There's three applications installed up here.

  • UE Boom, UE Roll, and Megabooom.

  • I'm gonna launch the "Roll" app... Oh!

  • Look at that loading... There's nothing better than...

  • Bluetooth pairing bloopers.

  • Shows the battery life, that's useful... I like it!

  • Pretty straight forward, simple app, power button...

  • Assuming- Volume...

  • Double up, if you wanna add another speaker, EQ...

  • HOW DOES IT SOUND? Sorry, I'm gonna flip it over.

  • What do you say, Jack?

  • Oh...

  • Sensual...

  • (Music Playing)

  • OK... I'm impressed.

  • I feel like... Size to sound ratio is actually pretty impressive.

  • The design may be not for everybody but...

  • They do come in a number of different color combinations.

  • And... The fact that it's waterproof, I mean who can hate on that?

  • Take a look at this guy here...

  • Which is the Boom... The Boom? The Boom?

  • This is a different color combo than last, obliviously much different than the bigger one.

  • Still have this nice oversized volume buttons, which I like.

  • Just like before, it's a question of sound.

  • Hello!

  • (Music playing)

  • (Device warns) Critical battery please charge.

  • Whoa!

  • Hands down...

  • The best "critical battery" warning I've ever heard in my entire life.

  • AJ probably has that on loop.

  • -"AJ critical battery warning man"

  • The sound is way better on this!

  • Way better! Forget about that thing!

  • This is not that much bigger, this sounds way better than that.

  • Now I am insanely pumped,

  • For the big boy... The mega burrito.

  • (Device warns) Critical battery, please charge.

  • More depth...

  • More low-end... A step up in a big way.

  • In a bigger way that I expected.

  • This though...

  • Look at this... You have the flaps to protect the auxiliary port and the micro USB.

  • And we are fully waterproof.

  • For how much money AJ?

  • (Offscreen:) 300.

  • 300 dollars.

  • That's expensive... Most people they spend that kind of money on their phones...

  • I don't know how many people on the market for a speaker that's this price.

  • That said...

  • It's about the sound right? So let's pair up... Same song? Same song! Same song... OK...

  • (Music playing)

  • You already know...

  • Wha- What do I need to tell you at this point? You already know!

  • You heard it... This is the one to get.

  • I don't know what you have to do... Maybe you have to borrow a few bucks from your parents.

  • Maybe you have to ask for it from Santa Claus.

  • Hanukkah,

  • Ask for it for- for Kwanzaa...

  • Listen... A lot of times this is like... Not your main music setup,

  • And it's something you wanna take with you and this is- This is cool, I will get this one over this one.

  • I'll take sound over the waterproof.

  • Put away a few extra bucks... Get a paper route, right?

  • Get a paper route!

  • Wow!

  • When you hear 'em in this kind of environment, one after the other,

  • You really start to appreciate the differences.

  • You're sitting, um...

  • On the picnic tables outside your high school with this joint,

  • And then someone comes along with the Megaboom?

  • You're out!

  • You're out of comission, they send you home, you're suspended,

  • You might even be expelled... You show up with this one you're expelled.

  • (laughs)

  • Alright, let's listen to it one more time... but you heard what I have to say, alright?

  • This is my- This is the one!

  • We're gonna roll out on the Megaboom!

  • (Music playing)

Open your eyes Lew, It's time for another video!
