The verdict

The new Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 4 doesn't offer many upgrades over the 3, and the UE app still doesn't support it. The change to a USB-C charging port is welcome, but a new Podcast EQ setting is hardly anything to get excited about. That said, the Wonderboom 4 is still a durable, ultra-portable, and convenient speaker for a solo hike or when it's just you and a few friends.

✓Liked: IP67, Omnidirectional sound, Small Size, Loop attachment

✕Could be better: Minimal hardware upgrades, No app support, No microphone

Owners

How we verify owners

Nobody who owns the Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 4 has written in yet.

Owner reviews are not paid for, not solicited from specific owners, and not rewritten by us: at most we proofread typos, which is shown on the review’s own page and which the author can undo. The commission SoundGuys may earn on this page comes from retail links, never from owner reviews.
