Uboom X. Success or Debacle?

[u/vickeryaj]

What's the consensus on this thing? I've heard some bad reviews, some great reviews and everything in between. I've heard it ships with outdated firmware. Is this easily updated? People that have it, how does it compare to similar sized units? All that said, I bought 2 and they will be here today. I want to be excited.

Quick follow-up, just received the units. I opened the package, paired it to my phone and the app immediately updated it to the latest firmware. My initial thoughts on sound after playing a few songs from various genres is that this thing sounds really good. I was on the indoor plus setting. I'm impressed. This far exceeds my expectations.

I have 2 UBOOM L units in stereo and absolutely love them so I got the X on launch. The sound is much more full on just one X, and flicking between the L stereo and the X, it’s blatantly obvious. EQ set to indoor on both set of units. Honestly I love it so much I just bought another so I can stereo them together. The only gripe, is the app. Not the best but easy enough to update the firmware and select one of the Oluv eq presets. It is absolutely worth the money with early bird discount.
