Customer Ratings & Reviews

Sony really hit the ball out of the park on this one! Let’s start with appearance, the XB41 has a deep cranberry-red color accompanied by beautiful strobe lights that are interchangeable at your request. The Bluetooth pairing was very easy, both my cellular phone and laptop recognized the speaker instantly. -Sound this speaker packs an awesome punch with sounds that are loud and clear in audio clarity. -Portability this speaker can be used for classroom functions, parties, outdoor gatherings and even the beach because of its water-resistant abilities. I am an educator, and I plan to use this speaker frequently in the classroom for audio lectures. -Features I love the fact this speaker has the ability to daisy link as I have the XB21 as well as the V11 to add this feature on to. I believe all users will love the usefulness as well as robust features of this speaker. Sony claims 24 hours of usage without the strobe lights, which will undoubtedly be the star of the party! I highly recommend this Bluetooth speaker!

I love music, and as such I love speakers that make music sound better. This speaker does this, with a twist. This speaker gives you a bunch of things in a speaker, that you didn't realize were possible to have in a speaker. Lights! waterproof! Long battery life! Being a DJ! Bluetooth and NFC! As for the sound, you won't find anything that sounds better. If you want, you can tweak the sound to allow for different modes. Live, Arena, Concert, etc. You can pick extra bass, or not. You can pick the clear quality mode, that decides what sounds best. And if you don't like that, you can change the equalizer to match your tastes. What more could you want from a speaker? How about an app that lets you do all of this programming? Sony has it. Do you want something you can take to the beach? Or maybe your worksite while building a house? Dustproof and waterproof. Awesome! How about a battery that lasts as long as your workday does? It has a 24 hour estimated battery life - I was getting more that that by putting it on my desk at work and just playing music through it. Nothing fancy. I'm sure the 24 hour rating is legitimate. Bluetooth connected without any drama, and I didn't try the NFC as I don't have anything that is NFC to try it out. The lights are cool, I find it uplifting to have them on while I'm at work and sometimes dealing with the winter blues due to the lack of sunlight. You can change the rhythm of the lights, and what lights you want on, what color, etc. I like the flexibility of this kind of programming. You will find this next part fun. You can add DJ effects by tapping on different parts of this speaker or on the Fiestable app. I am not much of a party guy, but it is fun to give that inner party animal something to do from time to time. Sony speakers are so amazing right now. I'm not sure what they were like in the last few years, but these are amazing and worth every penny. If you buy it and don't like it, you can return it due to Best Buy's great return policy. If you are like me, you won't find a need to return it, it is simply amazing. Great size, great sound, great value!.

Speaker is the bomb, battery life is 2 plus days with heavy use lights do turn off behind the water resistant seal.

For the size and the light show you get it's definitely worth it. Loud enough and connects to other Sony speakers!

Worth the money very loud awesome for on the go very helpful because it’s portable comes in handy for camping trips .

Stereo sounds great, very loud for a smaller speaker. Super cool feature to link up to another stereo, and app is a lot of fun.

This thing pumps out some great sound for the size and price. And the battery last a long time. I dig it.

Very portable and great speakers. I highly recommend it

Great sound! I bought 2 to link them and it makes all the difference. I use it for the yard and beach. Works great. Light show is cool too. I wish the light worked in sync to the music.

I have a boom 2 and Bose color SoundLink that I love but this Sony has more bass and gets louder. Plus the lights are super cool!

This device works well with Bluetooth devices as well as with older devices. I love the sound and the lights on this device!

The speaker sounds great and really fills a room. Battery life is better than expected and plays most types of music very well

Good sound. Very impressed with the size and the loud sound. Very happy

The sound is great. Sounds like it's a really big speaker. The changing of the light makes it the perfect party speaker.

The SRS-XB41 range is quite good. No loss of signal in any room. Sounds great, nice full sound with excellent bass.

Durable compact with great sound. Really fun using the boom box features. I would recommend this product to anyone.
