Used during chores when earbuds are charging. Only con is sound can be too soft for talk shows, but music is good. Keeps a charge for days.

EXCELLENT bluetooth speaker
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent compact speaker; nice sound; easy to use. Charge it completely before first use--- takes about 4 hours for complete charge: DO IT. After that, it is easy to connect to device. I love the size too. Price was good. I do recommend it.

Great for small group listening
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds is great for clipping it on a bag for hiking, or close to body listen without disturbing others. Has held up well. It can get washed out if you take to beach on high wind days. Battery has lasted awhile too.

Take them anywhere Sony Speakers
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these speakers everywhere. I originally purchased them to use on the new boat because I didn't want to cut any speaker holes. I purchased two because they link together and work in stereo mode. I just pace them in the front cupholders and they provide all the sound I could ever need and the quality is fantastic. The speakers are weatherproof and I have been using them for over two years. I bring them on vacation and to outdoor and indoor events. I use them on the beach all the time. The Bluetooth works great with my phone. I would buy these again

Sony extra bass SRS XB-13 bluetooth speakers
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my Sony SRS XB-13 bluetooth speakers. Got them at a discounted price $40. Value for my money. Its been close to a year of using them. - They has excellent battery life. - in built microphone, so can be used for phone calls while listening to videos/music. - sound quality of very good. - This is helpful when working from home. I don't have to wear earphones/headphones through put the day. I use them for my online meetings and never had any problem with sound quality. - range is decent. - solid build quality. They fell numerously but no damage to sound quality. Buy two and pair them to get surround sound feeling of a theatre system.

Great little speaker with a big bass boost
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really love this little speaker. It sounds really great for its size. And, the bass is similar to other bigger speakers. Nice looking in taupe. And the removable strap lets you hand the speaker from a towel rack while listening in the bathroom, for example. Easily connects to my devices via Bluetooth. Battery life is very long. I only charged it once and listened for several hours over several days while away on vacation. Definitely a nice purchase for a very reasonable price.

Best little portable speaker!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For it’s size, it’s well worth it! The sound is loud and crisp. First few uses, I took it to the lake and not only did it run for 7 1/2 hours straight with no interruptions but it could be heard from 2 neighboring picnic tables and I was afraid when it was outside it would not be loud enough. But boy was I wrong! The fact that it lasted soonh without charging and I still took it home and had it playing in the bathroom for almost 2 hours, says a lot for this little thing! I highly recommend it for the price! It was meant for when I kayak and to keep in my bathroom and I couldn’t be more pleased!

Strong BT connection
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had never had a bluetooth speaker before--I normally stick with headphones. I had a wired speaker previously (for working around the house) but my device with a headphone jack stopped working. In comparison to that speaker, this one is much clearer. I'm so pleased that I can leave my device in another room and just carry this speaker with me when I pick up to do chores in another area. Volume is limited to my device's volume, which I didn't expect. Not horrible, just a little quieter than expected. Guess I don't really have to party as hard while cleaning (lol). I went with Sony because I have lots of their headphones and their small peripherals like this just tend to be durable and last forever. I'm hoping it's an investment that will last for the next few years.

Portable, affordable, good sound for the size
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for my 8yo MacBook Pro when the speakers started going because swapping those speakers is rocket surgery. It’s louder than the stock mid-2014 speakers and the microphone is clearer. The battery lasts pretty long, but if you forget to charge it you can use it while it’s plugged in. It also fits nicely in a backpack. This was built for budget/portability and it delivers on both. My family uses it for video calls and playing the Sims, and it does music a bit better than iPhone speaker quality. If you want more than that, don’t expect miracles despite the “Extra Bass” moniker. We are all bound by the laws of physics.

Worth a Listen

Good speaker, stupid strap
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this speaker but one star off for the stupid strap structure. The sound is great and it has a long life. Instead of a neat little hook like others, this one has a weird long strap. I still recommend it though

Not very loud.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If used as a computer speaker or connected to your phone in a small room it is fine. In a large room it is very underpowered and the bass, while strong, doesnt trasmit beyoond the immediate area surrounding the speaker. If your looking for a loud pary speaker for a small kick back this is not the choice. If your looking for something to play music at a reasonble volume in a small space it provides excellent sound quality in that appllication.

GREAT SOUND!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.great sound. Durable. Portable. Bass hits. For the price its a buy. Don't complain on the quality of volume when each song and its final master makes a difference. Nothing to do with the speaker.

Ok for this price but would not recommend
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'd recommend paying a little more for something bigger. I purchased this specifically for a tubing exclusion and although it sounds good, battery lasted the whole trip and survived being on a creek, the bass is not as "extra" as the name implies and it is not loud. There were other groups with speakers much louder than these. I do plan to keep these as I really like how these look and the portability but will swap if I find something that looks similar and performs better.
