The Megaboom 3 doesnвЂ™t even need to be turned on it just needs to be connected to your smartphone. ThatвЂ™s right, the speaker can play your favourite playlists without you having to reach for a smartphone. You can play and pause songs with a single tap, skip tracks with a double tap, and, with a long press, summon a playlist. The redesigned top button - called the вЂњMagic ButtonвЂќ - has learned some new tricks.

The UE Megaboom 3 lasts 20 hours on a full charge вЂ“ a decent amount thatвЂ™s unchanged from the previous generation. ItвЂ™s a touch pricey at ВЈ34.99, but itвЂ™s quite nice to plonk the speaker on to. The charging port has been repositioned, now letting you charge the Megaboom 3 upright, as you normally would.ДЄlternatively, you can dock it on a Power Up charging stand. One of the banes of the older Booms and Megabooms вЂ“ turning it upside down to plug the charging cable in underneath вЂ“ is something the company has finally changed.

The speaker itself feels chunky and indestructible as ever, but itвЂ™s still light enough to carry around in your backpack or just around the house. We really like the shimmery, iridescent sheen of the new fabric surrounding the trademark cylindrical design. You can get the Bluetooth speaker in the colours Night (black), Sunset (red), Lagoon (blue) and Ultraviolet (purple), and two Apple-exclusive colours of Denim (deep blue) and Cloud (light blue). In fact, the UE Megaboom 3 has a more sophisticated appearance overall, especially thanks to a flatter top panel and dual-tone finishes of the new fabric.
