      Hi cjlowe,

      Thank you for the positive feedback. The SRS-XB23 has undergone extensive shock testing to make sure it can withstand the inevitable knocks, bumps and scrapes that come with everyday use. Even if you drop it, the SRS-XB23 will keep on working. It also has an IP67 rating which makes the speaker dustproof, waterproof, rustproof and washable

      Thank you for choosing Sony!

    The Sony SRS-XB23 provides wonderful sound for the price and this type of speaker. If you want more, you pay more, but I think this speaker is just what I need. It uses a USB C charging cable which is great as my phone does also. It does not have a 3.5 aux connector, but most people would not use it. The Bluetooth connection works well.
