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.
