    Small and portable make this speaker more to love! It’s very loud and the bass in it is awesome for it to be so small and produce the sound well. For a great price! Can’t beat that!

    Super simple to use and it has quite the punch for being a little guy. Great for transporting and really nice blue color. The battery last a long time and I like how it charges quickly.

    Cool little speaker, got it for $35 on sale and its really good. The bass is deep, wish it was a little louder though. Happy its water proof, hoping it doesnt blow out fast like most of the other bluetooth speakers ive purchased

    I purchased this, and the XB23 for my wife for Christmas because she likes to listen to music in the shower, and as background while working in the house. We also can take it while going for a walk because of the light weight. It is a nice little speaker. It puts out good sound, and for it's size, puts out a loud amount of it. Don't expect a lot of bass due to the size, but it is a great upgrade from the sound of a cell phone or or a Kindle. It pairs up easily to a phone or tablet. I got it during a Christmas sale, and really like the purchase.

    As a long time Sony brand purchaser, I was not disappointed with the quality of this little gem! It does all that is promised. The size is compact, which makes it convenient at home and to carry in a handbag, tote or backpack. It’s very comfortable to hold in your hand. The silicone body makes it easy to grip. I find myself using it frequently with my phone—as a speakerphone and listening to the radio/tv, music & podcasts. I didn’t think I needed this—but I appreciate this ‘mini’ (in size only!) Bluetooth speaker. Great sound, too!

    After my second Beats Pill died recently, I was looking for something cheaper to use poolside in our backyard. Beats are way too expensive to be dying after just 18-24 months. I can’t speak for the longevity of this little Sony speaker, but I can say it puts out great sound. The sound is clear and crisp, and it’s loud enough that we can hear it while splashing and playing in and around the pool. Bonus that it’s water resistant! If it continues performing well, I plan on purchasing a second one so we can have “surround sound.” Highly recommend; good bang for your buck!

    I needed a small, inexpensive, portable speaker for my new portable CD player so I could practice some new songs I needed to learn quickly for a choral performance. This one has good quality, good volume, and holds a charge for a long time.

    Great sound for small speaker. Nice base. Good volume. I like its size for portability. The strap is a nice addition as it provides greater options for use. I gave this as a gift and my friend was thrilled with it when we tried it out.

    My only regret about buying this speaker is that I didn't buy it soon enough. I want to be able to pair this with multiple speakers but unfortunately I don't know if this will be able to pair with newer models. I was able to find this on sale so it was so worth it. The sound quality is fantastic and battery lasts longer than expected! Also small enough to fit perfectly in my bag for on-the-go usage like hikes, traveling, or weekend getaways.

    I don't actually use it for traveling since I don't travel a lot, but YOU could use it for traveling if you want to. Compact, good quality sound, waterproof, shock proof, AND still affordable, this bad boy can take a beating from being dropped a lot and still sound great. Can pair with a second one if you'd like. I personally use it in the shower so I know first hand that it's waterproof also shock proof because I drop it a lot on accident.

    Love this little speaker. Packs a pouch in sound. May be small but it’s great for a computer, tailgates, traveling. Has a small band to carry with you. Battery last a long time. You can buy more than one and sync them. You have two set up for your computer and choose left and right to get the best sound. Some Sony Bluetooth speakers do not connect to one another in the app. Make sure you get the right kinds to hook up to one another.

    I am very impressed with this little speaker. It puts out a nice thump, has high highs and surprisingly, low lows. I’d definitely recommend this little unit to anyone that needs a highly portable speaker. And did I mention it’s standby capabilities?? I actively used it for a few hours earlier this week and I left it on standby for a few days and didn’t discover it until late into the second day. I then used it for a few hours.....and still haven’t killed the battery. Impressive.

    I am very happy with this product. You can read whatever it says and not truly believe it. I was listening to music in the bathroom. The speaker falls into the bathtub full of water, still played well while being submerged under water. Took it out, dried it and still plays well. Very durable speaker too. I’ve dropped it a few times mainly because the bass coming from the speaker will vibrate it right off whatever it is stationed on. So make sure it’s somewhere safe.

    I looked over all wireless speakers and found that this one for $39.99 was the best value. The Sony brand speaks for itself, although purchased for a work desk to listen to music softly, I was amazed at the sound quality and felt this was the perfect wireless speaker to take anywhere, the park, beach, health club and has a capacity to use in any room in your home. The size and color options make it a very attractive product and it has a handy handle, light and easy to transport. I think it would be a hit for any one on your gift list!
