    Sony is not sponsoring me at all. I wish they were since I purchase many of their products. I love their products. Nevertheless this little speaker sounds clear and packs a punch for the bass being a small speaker. It is good for a small and close environment. In a bigger environment the sounds gets lost. I was definitely surprised with the audio quality.

    I really love this speaker the size of it makes it easy for travel, the battery life is great to where i dont need to worry about it, and while the sound qualty isnt anything to ride home about i think it still does a good job separating low and mid range frequencies overall you cant go wrong with the price of it and the performance of it

    Great sound, compact enough to take anywhere. I love how they redesigned the “handle” for easier use. I bought the same one a few years ago and it’s held up very well. It’s been to the beach, on boats and to work with me. This was a Father’s Day present. Highly recommend.
