Great little speaker
Jaffa Posted
Great sound for something so tiny. Perfect for my desk to lust to while I work. Easy to use. The color is a light orange which I like a lot. The only thing I don’t like is the strap which is just a bit weird but it is removable so you can just take it off the speaker.

Very nice
Mylenio Posted
Very nice speaker, so nice that I had to buy a second one. I like the function of linking the two speakers together and having a type of surround sound. It works really well. The speaker is loud and has some solid bass, which I really like.

This speaker is awesome
BigAle29 Posted
[Employee of bestbuy] So I’ve had it for over a year but the sounds quality has always been great. Over the summer, someone accidentally knocked it into the pool. We didnt realize it and honestly not sure how long it had been in there but when we noticed it had been in the water, ot still worked perfectly fine. It was submerged atleast 3-4ft but even 5 months later it still works just as well as when I first bought it.

Great Alternative to the Pricier Brands
MarcC Posted
My father had been looking into replacing some older bluetooth speakers as they no longer functioned with some of the newest operating systems. He had been looking into some more expensive bigger brand ones when I offered to do a little digging for some other options. I came upon this Sony portable speaker that seemed to review well and was much cheaper. Having heard them in person they are quite nice and there is no distortion as long as you are not cranking up the volume to max on the device itself. You can also easily pair 2 together in order to get stereo sound. There is also a strap attached which allows you to hang and angle them to project the sound/music across the room.

Excellent Choice
UncleEek Posted
This little speaker is exactly what I was looking for . Super EZ to pair up and surprisingly great sound and great bass. Of coarse to me you can’t have enough bass but this little unit is well worth the little bit of money it cost.

Favorite little Bluetooth speaker

Love this speaker. Last a really long time after charge and has great sound quality. Typically listen to audio books in shower and am able to hear them just fine over the running water.

GREAT compact speaker for offices and bedroom!
SamKnowsBest Posted
I needed a small speaker for my office. I saw the reviews on this speaker so I decided to buy it. Great speaker that is very clear and crisp to have for background music. It does get loud as well to even fill a living room. And it wont distort at a high volume. Now it says that has bass boosters to it but I only hear a little bit of it. Thats okay. I didn’t expect mind blowing bass coming from this product. Overall, I’m happy with this purchase.

Buy 2
JLP144 Posted
Amazing sound and bass and volume for a little speaker. Bought 2 for stereo spatial sound. Used at camp made the musical atmosphere awesome! Also the batteries last a very long time before needing charge maybe 8 hours or so. Can be a little tough to pair in stereo but once done, automatically pairs to your device after that. The strap lets you hang the speakers easily.

This is a great speaker and I might a matching to see if can do a stereo pair. I use all day working from my home office and bring it to our bedroom so I can listen to soft music to help me relax over night.

Amazing Sound and Bass Quality
LisaSamsung43 Posted
This little Sony speaker has an amazing sound and bass quality that ranges from 98ft which works great for my needs. I use it while showering and while I'm parked in my car since my radio stopped working. It works great.

Outstanding voice quality
MacUser Posted
This little speaker has some of the best sound I've ever heard from a bluetooth speaker at this price range. The driver Sony employs is of a very high quality. The sound coming out of this diminutive speaker is very satisfying and can get quite loud. The bass is quite good, highs are clear, and mids are solid. Of course it's a small speaker so I'm not expecting it to sound like party. It's a great sounding mini speaker, considering how small it is. It is loud indoors. Haven't yet tried outdoors so not sure how it is out there. Bluetooth connectivity is a breeze. Battery life is good. The main selling point for this little guy is it's portability and durability. Nice rubberized texture button press is good. Sony engineers nailed it on this little gem of a speaker. The buttons are easy to push and well laid out. I have been listening to this with music and movies for the past few hours while charging it at the same time. I like the cute little carry handle, never seen that feature before. There is a small rubber ring at the bottom to keep the unit from sliding around. This is the same exact speaker as the Sony XB10 with few minor changes. The waterproof rating got upgraded to IP67 which is negligible unless you really, really want a speaker able to be submersed underwater. It’s very handy with its handle that’s hanging down. It comes with a USB-C charging cable. Battery life is also great. I am going on 2 days without charging it, streaming via bluetooth about 3 hours per day from phone, and still going. I want to see how long it will really go. Impressive! Also it can be paired up with another XB13 for stereo sound. The volume can continue to be increased on them even if the volume on the source reaches it's limit, just by using the plus or minus signs on the side of each speaker to turn them up or down individually; or if the speakers are paired, only one speaker needs to be turned up for both speakers to increase/decrease in volume. Get two or more in this compact and portable size for great surround-sound and functionality! This is an excellent product for the price. It's made by Sony, so you are going to get what you pay for. Extremely affordable. Thank you Sony so very very much for living up to your name!!! They may not be top of the line, expensive speakers, but they are definitely the next best thing. No distortion at all at full volume and nice, rich bass. Not sure what the folks who complained about the sound were expecting, but I have zero complaints about the sound. Yes, this is not a speaker that you are going to use in a dancehall for a party. It is perfect for your home or patio. It can be too loud for certain circumstances, but then you can just adjust the volume down. For the price, none better can be found! All in all, I like the speakers and recommend them.
