Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very easy to use and fun to look at with the lights along with excellent sound it can even be more enhanced with the live version,

Speaker packs a punch for such a little device. We bought several for different locations, including the camper and the car for trips to the park.

It's perfect with just taking it around with you while doing things. Has quality sound and a pretty cool light show.

The sound is huge for this little speaker. The lights are fun and the app is awesome. I paid $150 for this on sale and it didn't hurt a bit.

Love my speaker. The light is so beautiful. It’s a bit heavy and you can connect it with other speakers.

I got this speaker for my son ugh sorry I did NO PEACE the sound is crystal clear and load!! It’s nice with the lights and he’s enjoying it.

I am really happy with my purchase. The sound quality is great and price was spot on! The only con is the so so app.

This Thing sounds great, great bass the function of adding more speakers to it is awesome definitely worth every penny

This speaker is awesome and loud love the option of connecting 100 more like it or other similar models and way cheaper than others

Portable, great sound, holds charge for a long time and we enjoy the color changing lights. We own several of these.

The size, features, and battery life should really appeal to most people who are looking for an all-around great wireless speaker.

Worth every penny!! Although I got mine on special! But it’s so good!!! I take it everywhere I go!! Super loud! Just excellent!

I can a classic car driver. My car doesn't have a working radio and this is the "go to" for Bluetooth streaming in the classics. I bought this for the fiancé for Christmas but have stolen it a few times to use. He uses it in our bigger detached garage and the sounds is great, clear and functional from distances. Make sure to get the app on your phone for this speaker as you can change the color, movements or just plain turn off the color.

The Sony - SRS-XB41 Portable Bluetooth Speaker sounds and look great. Their are apps to control the lights on the speaker

Excellent sound for both inside and outside use. Portable and holds a long charge. I use it in my barn when working as well as in the yard.

The Sony speaker is great even for a smaller area but with tall ceilings. Love the color changes. Good volume with Great bass also.

The sound quality of this speaks is great and the size is very good to take places to party or relax would recommend to anyone

I was blown away by the sound this small handheld speaker outputs. Great for outdoor use. A must have for portable sound.

Sony recently introduced a lineup of three SRS-XB speakers. At almost a foot long and weighing in at 3 pounds and 5 ounces, the XB41 is far and away the largest of the three and packs the biggeset punch. Like it’s middle brother, the XB31, the XB41 also has an interesting party trick: you can tap it to produce various sounds. The smaller XB21 does not include this feature. If the idea of tapping the speaker to make various percussion sounds doesn’t sound all that useful to you, you’d be right. But it can be a little bit fun. You also get a ring of light around the grill and two mini-strobes at the sides that all flash in rhythm. Again, not all that useful, but it adds a touch of fun. But those lights and sounds are just party tricks. The real trick with this speaker is how rich the soundfield is and how deep the bass is.  For a speaker this size, this is a phenomenal speaker. We tried a variety of types of music, and the XB41 handled them all with ease, returning a really engaging depth of sound and bass response.  Sony has done a terrific job with their LIVE SOUND mode. In terms of other features, battery life is phenomenal. Sony rates the XB41 for 24 hours of play, without the lights and such.  And the XB41 carries an IP67 waterproof rating (Sony also says it is dustproof and rustproof). It natively communicates via BT 4.2 and also includes NFC pairing.  I would have liked to see BT 5.0, since these are a new line of speakers, but 4.2 isn’t bad.  The fact is, most devices you’ll use it with don’t have BT 5.0, either. Another positive feature is that you can pair up to 100 of these XB speakers together to create what Sony calls a “party chain.”  The lights in each speaker of the chain will operate in unison, which would probably be pretty cool if you linked a number of them together, although I doubt anyone will string 100 of them together any time soon. The party chain can be activated via app or a button on the back of the speaker. I created a party chain with the XB41 and the XB31. It worked flawlessly; the speakers were perfectly synchonized and the sound was excellent.  The XB41 comes in three color options: black, blue, and red. Mine is red, as pictured. Like it's smaller brother, the XB41 is a terrific portable speaker, and I highly recommend it. 

The speak has a nice size, sounds great and it’s rather flashy! Ina good way. Overall very impressed and glad I purchased it.
