The next stage in wireless speakers has arrived, and this one can go underwater. The UE Roll 2 is a portable speaker that looks more like a Frisbee and can be dragged right under the waves without risking damage — it’s completely waterproof!

Fifteen percent louder than the original UE Roll, you can even double this second-generation speaker up with another Roll 2 for twice the sound. The speaker comes equipped with a bungee cord so you can attach it to your bike, board or backpack to take on your travels. At only half a pound it’s one of the most lightweight speakers on the market.

The UE Roll 2 has a battery life of roughly nine hours, so it works perfectly for an all-night dance party and with the compatible app you can control it right from your phone. It works with Bluetooth tech but comes with a USB and aux-in port in case you’re a little old school.

The speaker retails online for only $99.99, quite a steal for such a versatile piece of equipment. You can take this thing just about anywhere you can think of without having to worry about damaging it, from the beach all the way to the Amazon River.

Check it out online at the Ultimate Ears website.
