Posted .Hi QueenofthePirates,
Thank you for the review and we're sorry to hear what happened. The overall volume may vary depending on the source content. Make sure to turn up the volume of the speaker and the connected device. The sound may become low in the following cases. This is not a malfunction. -When the built-in battery is running low and the CHARGE indicator flashes slowly, while the speaker is being powered by the built-in battery only. -When the rechargeable built-in battery is running low as a result of long-time use of the speaker at a loud volume even though the speaker was connected to an AC outlet by a USB AC adaptor (commercially available) or to a computer that comes equipped with a USB charging port. Make sure to charge the built-in battery sufficiently.

Brilliant Sound
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was excited to use this speaker as soon as I unboxed it. I noticed right away that it has a strap that allows you to quickly and easily attach it to items, such as your backpack, the handle on your stroller, etc…. Finally you have a way to HANG it. This is small enough to fit in a cup holder too, the diameter is about the size of a 12 oz can of soda. The next thing I noticed was the open air space at the bottom of the speaker. This will help it to produce the EXTRA bass. I am truly amazed at how they can make such a rich full sound from a small unit. And then as I set the speaker on the table I realized the bottom has a non stick rubber material to keep it in place. Setting it on the table you realize the speaker is not moving. It is very stable and not going to be easily knocked over or move as the bass and volume increase. GENIUS. The unit has updated waterproof design meeting IP67 standards. It has a long battery life, nearly 16 hours. Oh and you can even use this as hands free calling. BRAVO. My callers could hear my well on their end and I could hear them equally well on my end. You even have the option to connect more than one SRS-XB13 speaker wirelessly to make a truly surround sound experience. It does come with a USB c type cable for charging. And Sony has added a battery meter, that displays on your smartphone so you know just how much power is left in the unit before you need to charge it. Connection was super easy with Fast pair. I turned it on, and it immediately went into discovery mode. I opened the bluetooth settings on my iPhone and it was already there waiting for me to connect.
