Logitech Ultimate Ears UE 900 Earbuds Review: Mind-Blowing Sound - Less Than Brilliant Ergonomics

Posted by in Accessories, Other Reviews, Reviews
Last Updated: October 5th, 2012

At $400 (I know, I know - stay with me here), the Logitech UE900s are well out of many people's perceived reasonable price range for a set of headphones. Especially earbuds. But I'd like to remind everyone that there is a definitely a market for headphones at this level, and it's not just reserved for the well-to-do and audio geeks. The fact of the matter is, when it comes to sound, you can spend thousands of dollars to find the "ideal" system. Audiophiles amass huge collections of equipment over their lives devoted only to reproducing sound - setups that can be valued at more than the cost of a nice midsized sedan.

[Updated] Logitech UE Boombox And Mobile Boombox Review: Two Impressive Entries In A Crowded Market

Posted by in Other Reviews

Back at IFA 2012, Logitech unveiled its new series of Ultimate Ears accessories. Among those were a couple of portable speakers: the Boombox and Mobile Boombox. I've spent the last few weeks using both, and have been quite impressed for the most part. Without giving too much away right off the bat, both units sound surprisingly good compared to Logitech's previous Bluetooth speakers (and the competition), and are priced pretty aggressively for the features offered.

Mobile Boombox

  • Size:  4.4" x 2.6" x 2.4", 0.66 lbs. (298g)
  • Options: White, Black, Blue/White, Black/Green, Black/Red
  • Price: $99
  • Where to buy: Logitech

The Mobile Boombox is the smaller of the two and is a direct competitor to the Jawbone Jambox.

Review: Ultimate Ears TripleFi 10 Earbuds Are True Hi-Fi In Your Pocket, And Your Lightened Wallet Will Provide The Extra Space

Posted by in Other Reviews

I'll make it known now, I've been itching to try out Logitech's Ultimate Ears TripleFi 10 headphones for some time. Artem, the Android Police Chief, if you will, swears by this pair of headphones. I'm pretty picky about sound, so I wasn't entirely certain if I'd come to love them as much as he does. But after a couple of weeks with these rather pricey earbuds, I have to say, the sound is better than any other earbud I've used (admittedly, I've not tried any other earbuds above the $150 mark for any meaningful amount of time).

This article was written by a guest writer, Mikhail Lifshits, better known as ljokerl over at head-fi.org. Mikhail is an audiophile to the bone - a single look at his forum user page will leave you wondering if there is a pair of earbuds Mikhail hasn't owned or tried yet.

Today’s smartphones are quickly absorbing the functions of other portable devices - PDAs, portable GPS units, and standalone MIDs are a thing of the past - and conventional MP3 players may be next on the cutting block.

The audio quality of the latest-gen Android devices nowadays leaves little to be desired in comparison to the majority of mp3 players but the headsets included with most phones are a different story.
