Ī reviewer for the New Zealand Herald praised it for ease-of-use and quality of sound. In testing the claim that the UE Boom produced '360-degree sound', he noted that the speaker's imaging did not suffer with different placement or listening position. Greenwald also noted that the UE BOOM 'doesn't exactly impress' in terms of low frequency sound. He noted that there was emphasis on the low-midrange tones. Will Greenwald reviewed the UE Boom for PC Magazine, remarking favorably on its design, volume and stereo pairing function.

CNET also commented that, like most small speakers, the UE Boom 'just doesn't deliver a ton of bass', and that at higher volumes, the UE Boom may distort 'bass-heavy material'.

Ī recently released firmware update enabled a feature called 'PartyUp' which allows a person to pair 150+ UE Boom, Boom 2, and MegaBoom speakers, and have them all playing music from a single source. Additionally, two speakers can be paired to one source, with each speaker playing back a separate channel, or both speakers playing both channels. It also supports passive NFC, can be used as a Bluetooth speakerphone and has an alarm feature. In addition to supporting Bluetooth, the speaker can be connected via a standard 3.5mm audio input. On one end, it has a removable D-ring, which one reviewer suggested might be used to hang the device like a lantern. In terms of sound output, it supports a maximum of 88 dBA in a range of 90 Hz–20 kHz.

UE Boom consists of two 38-millimetre (1.5 in) drivers at 4 Ω, and has two passive radiators measuring 51 millimetres (2 in).

It is coated in a water- and stain-resistant material and partly covered with rubber. The speaker is an elongated cylinder measuring 18 cm × 6.5 cm (7.1 in × 2.6 in), similar in shape to a canned beverage, and weighing 538 g (19.0 oz).
