Photo: Retailer Regular Strategist readers know that, every so often, we writers and editors come together to talk shop about the stuff we buy ourselves. While comparing notes about our favorite portable speakers on a December all-staff Zoom, I piped up to sing the praises of my Ultimate Ears Wonderboom speaker. As I spoke to the grid of faces before me, I noticed colleagues start to nod their heads in unison, as if practicing some new choreography.
It turns out that of all the brands and models of portable speakers we very obsessive shoppers swear by, none is more endorsed than the Wonderboom, which no less than three of us own. While I was delighted to discover this fact, I was not all that surprised. I’ve had my Wonderboom 2 since the summer of 2019, and all of the other speakers that have come into my life since — from a Google Nest to a Google Home to an Amazon Alexa to a JBL Clip — have only made me love it more.

The Wonderboom, which is about the size of a mug, sounds just as good pretty much anywhere else based on all the scenarios we’ve used it in. Jordan says that whether “on hikes, beach trips, or at BBQs, it hasn’t let me down yet.
While I have the Wonderboom 2, Nikita and Jordan actually have its older sister, the Wonderboom 1, which shares a lot of features with the newer model. Both speakers share the same design, with giant, user-friendly volume buttons on their side, power and pairing buttons on top, and a handy hook for hanging them. Both can float in water. But the Wonderboom 2 improves on the first by boasting 13 hours of battery, while the original has just 10.
