    The SRS-XB31 is one of the better wireless speakers I have ever owned in recent memory. Appearance wise the XB31 looks like many other wireless speakers with the White/Green combo being aesthetically pleasing. IP67 certified for dust and waterproofing; great for use in a beach, BBQ or bathroom setting. Connecting to the speaker from my iPhone was a breeze and upon playing my music I instantly could tell the sound was going to be decent. Mid range is good and highs are OK at best with more noticeable distortion. The bass is quite strong and clear, something Sony has done a solid job with over the years via Extra Bass. The battery life is a terrific reported 24 hours and I was able to get 22+ hours without messing with the LEDs, turning on Live Sound or Party Booster. The Live Sound feature I could do without; most single wireless speakers I have tested simply do not emulate 3D room filling sound well no matter what 3D or Live feature they possess with the exception of Bose products. The Party Booster feature is different and sort of neat for me as it allows you to mix in different sounds on the XB31 simply by touching the outside of the speaker in various places; cool feature but it does not enhance the value enough for me. I found the LEDs to be more interesting, especially when used in a more darker room setting. The XB31 allows for daisy chaining of up to 100 wireless speakers in total or directly with Speaker Add Function. Overall I recommend the XB31 to anyone who is looking for a nice looking wireless speaker that has very good bass, decent sound overall and is easy to operate. 24 hours battery is great along with IP67 dustproof and waterproof certification!

    I have several bluetooth speakers, high end to low end; this falls in the middle. Setup was easy. There is an app, but its not mandatory to download it to use the speaker but it is helpful. Sony lists this as water resistant, I did not test that part out Pros The sound was good, and the lights were cool. There is a USB port in the back if you need to power up your phone (this opens the sealed back so probably not water resistant when you do this). Good bass if you download the app you have party control of the lights with the app you can string together multiple speakers (I only have 1) long battery life and not super heavy. I left this on standby for 3 days and the app still said 100% power. This fit pretty easily in my hand when I walked around. Cons: this is one of the few speakers I own that does not have smart connectivity. This is not a must have, but I guess I have come to expect it more so. There is no power button on the device, the app will turn off the speaker. You have to "forget device" in bluetooth and have to find it again later. The power button on the device (with no app) turns off the music but not the device. Scared the heck out of me when I had it ring one night and I thought it was turned off. The sound can be a little flat, play with your eq and of course find a setting you like. Overall: This does not sound as good as my bose speaker, but the sound if very decent in the group. If you know you are going to the beach, or pool this is a great idea. If you can get a few of them you can really make the party rock.

    This speaker is loud and fun, with its lights and connectablility between other Sony speakers. The one thing it advertises is bass, but that drops out the more you turn up the volume. All in all, it had a decent sound and fun features. It is not the best I have ever heard, not for any one looking for quality sound, but if you want a speaker that is loud and sounds decent and fun buy a few and enjoy!
