It’s a good speaker!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Small powerful speaker. It’s nice but sometimes the bass is so much if I don’t have it clipped onto something the speaker will fall off or vibrate the table. Even if the volume isn’t at max it does this.

Great little speaker, good for travel & outdoors
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony XB100 portable Bluetooth speaker is an updated version of the XB13. It's also similar to the XB23, but less than half the height. It's designed to fit in most cupholders, so you can take it with you in your car. It also has a strap, so you can hook it to a backpack, tent or pretty much whatever you want. The XB100 is waterproof and dustproof, so it's perfect for any indoor or outdoor situations. The exterior is textured to make it easier to hold, though I think a slightly more rubbery or silicone finish would be better. The controls on the side are simple, the buttons are: power, Bluetooth, play/pause, and volume down and up. The battery is rated to last up to 16 hours. I had it on and used it several times without having to recharge it. It has a USB-C charging port with a fairly short included cable (one end of the cable is USB-C to plug into the speaker, the other end is a standard legacy USB to plug into a computer or power station). The USB-C port on the speaker is only for charging, nothing else. Connecting to a device is easy with Bluetooth. I connected the speaker to my computer, my Android phone and an older Android phone that I use to play music. Playing music sounds good, though a couple of times with songs with a lot of bass it produced a slight vibration. There is no sound adjustment possible except volume. You can use the Sony Music Center app to play music and it also tells you the amount of power left on the speaker. The XB100 also has a built-in microphone, so you can use it as a hands-free device for phone calls. The nice thing about using this as a speakerphone is you don't get the delay or cutting off when two people try to speak at the same time. As with other Sony portable speaker models, you can pair the XB100 with another XB100 for stereo sound. You can't connect it to any other models, however.

Not Good for TV
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product information said this speaker offers powerful, clear sound. It was anything but powerful. I was using it for my television and I had to crank the volume up as far as it would go, but I could hardly hear the audio even with the speaker sitting right next to me on the end table. I did not try listening to music -- maybe that would give a better result.

Posted .Hi NancyL,
Thank you for your time writing this review. We're sorry to hear if the sound quality of your XB100 speaker didn't live up to your expectations. Allow us to help turn this to a better experience.
When the volume of the speaker sounds low, adjust the volume level of the BLUETOOTH device to an appropriate one, and then adjust the volume level of the speaker with the –/+ (volume) buttons on the speaker.
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.
- When the ambient temperature of the speaker is high.
If the sound becomes low while in use, follow the procedure below.
Turn off the speaker.
Charge the built-in battery sufficiently.

Posted .Hi Purr1963,
Thank you for the review and we do apologize for the inconvenience. The sound quality will depend in the source, battery life and environment that you're playing. Also, the sound quality may change when water enters the speaker section of the system. If you have used the speaker in a location where may have been in contact with water, try the following procedure. Wipe off any moisture on the speaker's surface. Put the speaker on a dry soft cloth with the fabric part facing down to drain any water that may have collected inside the speaker. If the issue is resolved.
The issue was caused by water getting inside the speaker.
If the issue is not resolved, initialize your speaker and try again. Here's the link on how to.
