Ultimate Ears Roll 2 Review: The Loudest and Longest-Lasting Bluetooth Speaker



I own an original UE Roll, so Ultimate Ears sent me a UE Roll 2 for a comparison review ahead of the new speaker's rollout. When it comes to design, the palm-sized UE Roll 2 is physically identical to the original UE Roll. It features the same flat, circular design with a bungee cord in the back and a flap to cover both a microUSB port used for charging and a 3.5mm audio-in jack.


Depending on your preferences, you may like either the Ultimate Ears BOOM 3 or the Sonos Roam. The Ultimate Ears is better-built, gets louder, and has longer battery life. Its soundstage performance is better, too. While it comes with a graphic EQ and presets, the Sonos has bass and treble adjustments. The Sonos has a more neutral sound out-of-the-box, and it also supports voice assistants.




Ultimate Ears Roll 2 Review – Louder, longer



I agree Canon needs to get moving and come up with some trend setting advancements. Up until about 5 years ago cameras were advancing at a rapid rate. Since then improvements have been slow and DSLR cameras are no longer hot items. The general public has or is rapidly losing interest.BTW, I do not agree about the "dark" tunnel. The viewfinder on my T6s seems brighter than the one on my T3i even though the magnification is supposed to be slightly less.


The second half of the performance features visiting artists Patricia Hoffbauer and George Emilio Sanchez, who were commissioned by Dance Umbrella to create this project. Focusing their lens on issues of assimilation and cultural identity, the pair explore the transformation of the native into the clown, sex object, and,finally, into an assimilated ghost figure. Fragmentation touches every aspect of the performance, from the use of "Spanglish" to the use of filmed montages to the performers' gestures, which are repeated so quickly that they resemble Latin dance moves. Movement from the first half of the show reappears in the choreography as the performers struggle to create their own individual identities -- apart from the ones imposed on them by external, controlling influences. Clothing becomes a prison, trapping one in an unwanted identity. To shed the unwanted clothing is to celebrate the individual and to give hope to others caught in the search.

Beautiful boys who inspire lust and cause trouble are quite prevalent in YA lit these days, so Avery shouldn't be surprised at all when the new boy in town, who is, of course, almost impossibly attractive, also raises unsettling questions. As if Avery didn't have enough to contend with, since her parents were recently brutally murdered, she can't remember the details of having found their bodies, and developers now threaten the local woods to which she feels deeply and supernaturally attached. Add to that the fact that her first love, Ben, turns out to be a werewolf, and Avery has quite a bit on her plate. Avery is hauntingly innocent as she tries, bewildered and grief-stricken, to bring forth repressed memories and deal with a world from which her parents had largely protected her. Unfortunately, the incessant hinting and red herrings about potential suspects all but guarantee that readers will either roll their eyes at the rather unlikely actual murderer or feel confused by the sudden drop of a significant plot element involving a mysterious, non-human evil force. In addition, Avery's fierce loyalty to those she loves conveniently disappears at the one moment it is most necessary, allowing for a plot twist but weakening her solidity as a protagonist. Even so, it goes without saying that hottie supernatural boys, girls with just enough gumption to save themselves (at least a little), and, in this case, a genuinely creepy and memorable setting, will feed the Twilight appetite.
