What reviewers say
Reviewers agree it is a tough, fuss-free outdoor speaker with long battery life, bassy sound and even 360-degree coverage, but little changed from the Megaboom 3. They differ on volume: TechRadar found it impressively loud, while RTINGS found it does not get very loud and compresses the bass at maximum; TechRadar also found busy tracks a little jumbled.
