Customer Ratings & Reviews

My family loves Sony portable, Bluetooth speakers. We've had several models and have never been disappointed. One of the differences from this model to some older ones we have is the exterior material. While our older speakers had more of a rubber feel to the exterior, this series is more like a fabric type of feel. It's actually pretty nice feeling and I get the sense that it will provide durability over the long haul too. Just the fact that this speaker is waterproof lends itself to so many more applications around the swimming pool, ocean, etc.... Buyers should note that this XB41 speaker is the largest in this line of speakers. It is still portable to take on trips to the beach, but if you want something smaller the XB31 is shorter in length, but still packs a great sound. The lights that sync to the music are a cool feature for parties and the like, but we generally have turned that feature off for personal use. Prefer the sound with extra bass even though the live sound mode is interesting. We've never had any issues with these speakers not having a sufficient charge to meet our use. Bottom line you're getting quality sound and a well built product that is easy to use. I don't hesitate to recommend Sony products in general since we've had very good results with them.

I have to really come to love the Sony has designed, built and made the speakers easy to connect to each other. The sound out of this thing is amazing. The bass that it produces is superior to anything else that I've had. The sound is crystal clear and pairing was super simple. My wife and kids love the lights, and I must admit that they have grown on me. I wouldn't but the speaker for them, but they do add a little fun to the listening. If you're in a more mellow music listening mood, you can just turn them off. You can use the speaker by itself or you can create a group with other speakers in a few taps, which I did with this SRS-XB41 and an SRS-XB31. Highly recommended. Now you can set up your speakers all over and blanket a pretty good sized area with music. The advantage is that you can play the music at lower levels and hear it everywhere, rather than blaring it out to reach everywhere and having it way too loud to stand near. I also connected by bluetooth to my Echo and it worked fabulously. You can call out your commands to Alexa, skip, play this or that, etc. I love it. I would recommend this to everyone either by itself and more highly recommend with others to string your music together. I've had many bluetooth speakers over the years and these are the best.

I purchased this speaker as an upgrade to the previous model XB30. The battery life is great, the bass is even better and look and feel is amazing.

Amazing! Great sound quality and long lasting battery!

Price range goes like this in order from cheapest to expensive. Generic, skull candy, jbl, Sony, Bose. There are others in there but they fall real close between these. Sony isn't much more expensive than jbl, but a lot cheaper than Bose. The sounds are real close on the three. I went with name recognition which this brand has.

Great sound with app (of course) and long battery life.
