The Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM 3 has a pretty decent battery life. According to the manufacturer, you can get up to 20 hours of playtime after a full charge. Keep in mind, though, that this might vary depending on how loud you have it playing and what you're using it for.
Charging it is pretty straightforward, too. It comes with a USB charging cable, but heads up—our research found that some folks have had issues like the cable not fitting quite right or getting damaged. So, it's a good idea to handle it carefully.
There's also a wireless charging option with the Ultimate Ears POWER UP charging dock, which you have to buy separately. A lot of people find this super convenient because you can just pop the speaker on the dock to charge it up without much hassle.
If you run into any issues with the speaker not keeping a charge, it's worth checking that your cable and connection points are clean and in good shape. Our research suggests that doing a factory reset through the Ultimate Ears app can sometimes solve battery troubles.
Plus, keeping your firmware updated via the app can help with the overall performance and battery life.
So, by taking good care of the charge cable and ensuring everything stays clean, you'll likely enjoy those long play sessions without much interruption.
