Amazon has the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 4 for $59.99, down from $99.99, marking its lowest price yet, according to price trackers. The roughly 40% discount applies across all five color options—sand, black, blue, pink, and gray—so you don’t have to choose a particular finish just to get the sale price.
The Wonderboom 4 is designed for people who want something small enough to carry around without giving up decent sound coverage, since its rounded shape helps spread audio in 360 degrees. That makes it easy to drop on a picnic table, kitchen counter, or in the middle of a small group without worrying about which direction it’s facing. Also, because it has an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance and can float, it is especially easy to bring along for pool days, beach trips, or camping. You can also pair two Wonderboom 4 speakers for stereo playback, giving you a wider soundstage. As for its battery life, it is rated at up to 14 hours by the manufacturer, which should be enough for a full day out, though actual runtime will depend on volume and usage.
Ultimate Ears has also made a few useful updates over the previous generation—USB-C now replaces the older charging port, while a new Podcast mode puts more emphasis on voices when you are listening to spoken-word content. There is also an Outdoor mode that adjusts the sound profile to help the speaker carry better in open spaces, although the speaker still doesn’t get especially loud. It does hold up relatively well when pushed toward higher volumes, so it should be enough for a picnic or small gathering, but not a large backyard party. The controls are fairly basic, too, with no companion app, no custom graphic equalizer like you get with the JBL Clip 5, and no way to skip back to the previous track directly from the speaker.
