    Great sound for such a little unit. Couldn't be happier with it. Of course, I've been very happy with every Sony product I've purchased over the years.

    I don’t know if I got a dud, but this does not hold a charge at all. Went from fully charged to 20% in 10 minutes. It’s also not very loud. I can barely hear it at full volume if I’m working in the garage and walk 10 feet outside. The sound is very bass heavy (which I usually don’t mind) so much so that it drowns out other sounds instruments when listening to music and it makes listening to a podcast almost impossible. Do not recommend.

      Hi Zach,

      We regret to hear that you are not satisfied with the speaker. Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority.

      The sound quality may vary depending on the source content. The surrounding area of the speaker and your device also affects Bluetooth connection as well as the sound quality. Move the speaker away from a device such as a microwave oven and a wireless LAN access point that may affect the sound quality of the speaker. Bring the Bluetooth device closer to the speaker. If there is any obstacle between the speaker and the Bluetooth device, move it out of the way.

      For optimum performance, make sure to charge built-in battery sufficiently. The sound may become low in the following cases. This is not a malfunction:

      -When the built-in battery is running low and the CHARGE indicator flashes slowly, while the speaker is being powered by the built-in battery only.

      -When the rechargeable built-in battery is running low as a result of long-time use of the speaker at a loud volume even though the speaker was connected to an AC outlet by a USB AC adaptor (commercially available) or to a computer that comes equipped with a USB charging port.

      -When the ambient temperature of the speaker is high.

      It's important to note that while the speaker is physically capable of outdoor use, the sound performance can vary depending on the specific outdoor environment, including factors such as wind, background noise, and open spaces, which may affect the perceived loudness.

      In some cases, you might find that the speaker's sound may not be as loud as desired for outdoor use, especially in noisy or wide-open areas. For optimal sound quality and performance, we recommend using the speaker primarily for indoor purposes, where environmental factors are more likely controlled, and you can fully enjoy its audio capabilities.

      For battery issues, initialize the speaker to factory settings:

      -While the speaker is turned on, press and hold the – (volume) button and the (BLUETOOTH) button until the speaker turns off (5 seconds or more). The speaker is initialized. Settings such as volume, etc., are restored to the default settings, and all pairing information is deleted.

      Note: The speaker cannot be initialized while the power is off.

      Hope this helps. In case you need additional assistance, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

    The sound was not allowed at all and we were probably about four maybe 5 feet away from the speaker. I could barely hear it. It’s not an outdoor speaker. Let that be said maybe the outcome would’ve been a little better if I used in the bathroom. But the clerk at the store assured me that this was an outdoor speaker and would be able to hear it and we could not. I do not recommend this to anyone. It is not worth the price.

      Hi Ashish, Great! We're glad that you like the sound quality. The battery life when played at max volume (50) is approximately 5 hours. The built-in battery life above is measured using our specified music source. Actual performance time may vary from the listed time due to the volume, songs played, surrounding temperature, and usage conditions.

      Enjoy big sound with the super-compact SRS-XB100 wireless speaker, offering powerful, clear sound, an updated IP67 waterproof and dustproof design and up to 16 hours of battery life. Small enough to fit in a bag or cupholder, the XB100 also features a versatile strap to take with you wherever you go.
