WonderBoom 2 Review is part of my Travel Widgets where I review all indispensable travel gadgets.
With travel around the corner, it’s time to update My Travel Technology post originally written in 2015. Today, I’m starting with the best travel speaker, the WonderBoom 2. In 2015, I promoted the Big Jambox as my travel speaker, a device that the Israelis said tested positive for explosives (see “You Leave Only with Passport!” Detained in Tel Aviv Again) and a device that continuously baffled TSA (see The TSA Won’t Jam).
Tired of being interrogated and tired of carrying around the heavy JamBox, I searched for a worthy alternative. For years, I was using the original WonderBoom, which I called the Avocado on account of its green color. I upgraded to the 2 because the new Boom has a better battery life, more powerful sound, and a boost feature for amplifying the sound outdoors. Unlike the Big Jambox which weighs 2.7lbs, Boom 2 only weighs 15oz. Unlike the Big Jambox, it clearly looks like a speaker, leaving me less likely to end up with a device ripped apart like this:
Most importantly, the Wonderboom 2 fits snugly in my golf cart, allowing me to play my jams which are controlled by my Garmin Venu, while crushing the competition (see VIDEO: Golfing Rio Mar, Puerto Rico).
What’s in your carry-on? Hopefully nothing that triggers a positive explosive test.
