There’s no special dual-pairing button on the speaker itself, so you need to either load the app and re-pair the second speaker every time you want to use dual mode, or hit a button combination (pairing plus volume) on one speaker, then double-tap the Bluetooth button on the second speaker.

While Logitech’s UE Mini Boom app is pretty easy to use and slick, it’s a software crutch to enable a feature that the UE Mini Boom wasn’t originally designed to accommodate.

That said, some user interface inconveniences make UE Mini Boom less than totally ideal as a full time dual-speaker listening option. Apart from susceptibility to interference from other Bluetooth devices, such as brief signal drops and little pops when the speakers were used near a wireless keyboard, the streaming works pretty much as expected. While the audio quality doesn’t magically become better in dual mode, and distortion becomes very obvious at high volumes, regular amplitude listening with two speakers is really quite nice. With both speakers on, not only do you get the benefit of a potentially very wide stereo field-you choose the speaker distance-but also a louder volume level that certainly fills a small room. Just like the UE Boom before it, UE Mini Boom features a dual Bluetooth streaming mode that lets you wirelessly link two speakers, with an app that flips the speakers between left/right stereo separated mode or mirrored double performance. This all changes substantially if you’re willing to invest an additional $100 in a second UE Mini Boom. With both the iOS device and the speaker at their maximum levels, the peak volume level falls short of small room-filling there’s enough sonic power to let you hear music at your desk or from a bookshelf, but not much more. Consequently, the audio is reasonably clear but not particularly dynamic, and you can expect to hear only modest left- and right-channel separation from an apparent field of around six inches.

With only 4.3” of width to accommodate the twin 1” speakers, there’s not a lot of room for stereo separation in the single speaker, and as is common with audio drivers of that size, the sound skews significantly towards the midrange rather than crisp highs or deep lows. Speakerphone functionality is acceptable callers told us that the UE Mini Boom didn’t sound quite as clear as the iPhone’s integrated speakerphone hardware, but it was close enough.ĭue both to its small size and relatively low price, UE Mini Boom is in a position where it can’t sound great as a speaker on an absolute scale, just a relative one-and even then, it’s in the “good” zone. It emits pleasantly musical chimes when powering on, pairing, and turning off when you flip the rear switch. Although Logitech promises Bluetooth streaming will work at up to 50-foot distances, we found that it only worked reliably at Bluetooth’s typical 33-foot range audio drop-outs became more common as we moved past that point. There are two 1” drivers inside for audio, a 10-hour rechargeable battery, and a Bluetooth wireless chip capable of remembering eight devices, with up to two connected at the same time. Just as we said about the UE Mobile Boombox, UE Mini Boom’s specifications are respectable-a measured word given today’s very aggressive competition in the sub-$100 wireless speaker space. Logitech includes a relatively short Micro-USB charging cable in each package, but leaves out the wall power adapter that was bundled with the UE Mobile Boombox. By contrast, large UE logos have been embossed into the left and right sides, matching rather than contrasting against the color of the rubber. An on/off switch, micro-USB charging port, and auxiliary audio port are all on the back, but Logitech has left off their labeling as the features are pretty obvious.
