Sony XB100 Is Fantastic
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m a musician, hence I am very picky about music playing devices. After listening to the demo unit at Bestbuy I purchased the Sony XB100 wireless Bluetooth speaker June 5, 2023. I use it to play music mp3 files on my Android 12 phone: jazz, pop, & classical music. I wanted a small, easy to carry speaker, that sounded good. Starting with typical pop tunes they sound super on this Sony XB100. The sound of jazz string bass playing was also deep and rich with NO distortion. This particularly impressed me. Classical music, with a lot of highs and midrange, also were clean sounding. To me I classify speakers into two categories. (1) Ones that project sound outward, and (2) ones where the sound seems to be inside the speaker wanting to come out, but can’t. This Sony XB100 is a winning (1) that projects beautifully into a room. Needless to say (1) wins for me personally. This Sony XB100 speaker comes with a superb setup booklet. After charging the first time I turned it on and it immediately went into bluetooth paring mode. I looked at my Android 12 phone and it popped up a finger tap window asking if I wanted to pair it. One touch, done, paired, and ready to play music. The touch controls on this XB100 speaker are also excellent. I played music nonstop for 2 hours. I plugged it to recharge it. That took only 5 minutes. The USB charge cable that came with it is a USB C cable that plugs into the XB100 either way. Simple. I want to say that I first purchased another maker’s small Bluetooth speaker whose name begins with a “B.” It did not come with a specific instruction booklet. Instead “B’s” little booklet featured nothing that was helpful in many world languages. You had to install a phone app from “B” to make the speaker work. Really? Yes! I took it back for a refund. In closing, I highly recommend the Sony XB100 speaker.

Christmas Gift
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for a Christmas present and was very pleased. Sound is clear and louder than expected from a smaller speaker. I can not comment on the battery life since we have not used it enough to know how long it will last on a single charge. I recommend this to anyone in the market for a smaller Bluetooth speaker.

Good for room settings
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good quality for a compact model. There is no bass adjustment, so it doesn't handle very highly volume very well. Though it's a sufficient player for small/medium size room.
