help Ultimate Ears Megablast FAQ
Does the Ultimate Ears MEGABLAST support Alexa over Bluetooth?
Alexa voice control uses the speaker's Wi-Fi connection, while Bluetooth is used for ordinary wireless audio. The MEGABLAST was marketed as a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth speaker with Alexa, so Alexa features may not be available when it is operating only as a Bluetooth speaker.

Is the Ultimate Ears MEGABLAST waterproof?
It carries an IP67 rating, meaning it is dustproof and designed to withstand immersion in up to about 3 feet of water for up to 30 minutes. It is still sensible to keep the charging connection dry and inspect the seals before outdoor use.

How long does the MEGABLAST battery last?
Ultimate Ears quoted up to 16 hours of battery life for the MEGABLAST. Actual time changes with volume, Wi-Fi use, Bluetooth use, and battery age, so the figure is a maximum claim rather than a guarantee.

Is the MEGABLAST the same speaker as the MEGABOOM 3?
No. The MEGABLAST is the older Alexa and Wi-Fi model, while the MEGABOOM 3 belongs to a later portable Bluetooth speaker line. Choose the MEGABLAST when built-in Alexa matters, and verify app and service support before buying a used unit.
