Der Ultimate Ears Megaboom 3 erweist sich im Test als wahrer Durchhaltekünstler: Über 27 Stunden Musik-Playback schaffte der Bluetooth-Lautsprecher und mauserte sich damit zum Mobilitätssieger. Da er mit wenig Energie trotzdem einen guten Sound produziert, sicherte sich der Megaboom 3 auch in der Gesamtwertung eine Top-Position. Insgesamt lässt der Bluetooth-Lautsprecher wenig missen.

Wie schon die Vorgänger überzeugen auch der UE Boom 3 und der UE Megaboom 3 vor allem mit ihrem hervorragenden Sound. Die Robustheit sowie der Party-Modus und der Equalizer sind schöne Zugaben. Der Magic Button konnte mich in der Praxis bisher aber nicht von seiner Notwendigkeit überzeugen...
