I have used the speaker outdoors poolside, and at the beach without any problems.

Had it in the sun for few hours next to the pool.. no problems

Hanson · Answer

Maybe not under direct sunlight (discolor and sun wear) but outdoors in the shade and even in the mist this is 100% fine

SonyListens · Answer

Hi Norm,

Thanks for your inquiry. Using the speaker under direct sunlight is not recommended. To eliminate the risk of malfunctions, avoid the following locations when placing or leaving this speaker:

- Place subject to high temperatures, such as under direct sunlight or lighting equipment, near a heat source, or in a sauna.

- Inside a vehicle with the windows closed (especially in the summertime).

- Place subject to excessive dust.

- Place subject to strong vibration.

Hope this helps,
