1. Insane 360° Sound: Unlike traditional speakers that blast sound in one direction, the Megaboom is cylindrical, projecting audio evenly in every direction. Its the ultimate center-piece for a bonfire or a house party.

1. PartyUp Feature: Using the BOOM app, you can wirelessly connect ("daisy-chain") over 150 Ultimate Ears speakers (Boom, Boom 2, Boom 3, Megaboom, and Megaboom 3) to create a massive wall of sound.

1. Virtually Indestructible: The EXC is wrapped in a high-performance, fire-hose-inspired fabric and encased in a rubberized shell. It is designed to be dropped, kicked, and soaked without skipping a beat.

1. Customizable EQ: The app allows you to adjust the 5-band equalizer, so you can crank up the bass for hip-hop or brighten the mids for podcasts and acoustic tracks.

1. Remote Power On/Off: You can turn the speaker on or off directly from your smartphoneno need to get up from the couch or walk across the pool deck.

1. The "Magic" of Resetting: If you ever experience Bluetooth pairing lag, hold the Volume Down and Power buttons simultaneously for about 10 seconds. The speaker will "chirp," resetting the cache and making it pair like new.

1. Avoid the "Deep Discharge": To keep the lithium-ion battery healthy into 2026 and beyond, try not to let the speaker sit at 0% for long periods. If you aren't using it for a while, store it with about 50% charge.

1. Stereo Pairing: If you have two Megabooms, use the "Double Up" feature in the app to set them as Left and Right channels for a true stereo experience that rivals many home bookshelf speakers.

1. Check the Bundle: Since this is the "EXC" model, check your box! These often come with the UE Power Up charging dock or a travel case that isn't included with the standard retail versions.
