    Just Buy Two, Seriously

    Sixty dollars for the Sony XB100 Wireless Speaker? This is literally a steal for what you are getting. We have a couple different Bluetooth speakers in the house from a well known audio manufacturer whose name is four letters long and starts with the second letter of the alphabet, and this Sony is easily their equal for both sound quality and for design. And at a fraction of the price. The XB100 is a cylinder slightly bigger around than a soda can, shorter than a soda can, weighs nine and a half ounces, and is covered in a soft-touch rubberized coating. It has a fabric strap (that can be removed) for carrying or hanging, making it handy to take places rather than just using it around the house. The grille for the single, top-firing driver is sturdy, perforated metal. There are four ports around the bottom of the unit through which sound emanates from the passive radiator at the bottom of the unit. Sony claims 16 hours of battery life per charge which should be more than enough for a day away from home. The included charging cord is 12 inches long and consists of a USB-C connector that plugs into the speaker and a USB-A connector that plugs into a charging block (not included) or some other port that will supply power. Sony claims that the XB100 performs to certain industry waterproof and dustproof specifications, although I didn’t experience either of those conditions. Because of that, the charging port is contained behind a small rubber door that is attached to the unit by a seriously stout tether. The control buttons are behind the rubber facade covering the speaker and are marked by raised symbols that are painted white on my dark gray-colored unit. The play/pause button also lets you skip forward to the next track by pressing it twice in quick succession and pressing it three times goes back to the beginning of the track or to the previous track. You can also answer and hang up calls with this button. When I first received the XB100 I felt that is was unusually light in weight (probably to enhance it being portable), but I must say Sony’s engineers worked some real magic when it comes to the sound quality this small speaker puts out. Music presents with both crisp highs and some really good sounding bass response especially considering its size, and I believe the passive radiator on the bottom makes a true difference. While containing a small microphone opening by the controls, the sound quality of speech when on a phone call is superb. I usually use my ear buds for long conversations to help with sound clarity, but this little Sony speaker does just as well, if not better for those calls. For the price point of the XB100, no one should be disappointed with the quality they are receiving. As an added bonus, you can pair a second XB100 with it and have true stereo sound from your media source. And for the price of this unit I may do just that. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to a friend to just go ahead and buy two at a time, even without auditioning them…they are that good.

    Excellent Sound in the Size of a Pop Can

    The Sony XB100 is a small speaker that, for its size and price point, produces pretty good sound. I like it. Its audio fills a room, it sounds good while outside, and its small size makes it incredibly portable. I can set the speaker down or hang it from a hook on the wall. It’s light. It’s easy to use. It has great volume. The ability to use the XB100 as a speakerphone or to pair it with another XB100 for stereo sound makes the speaker even more impressive. In short, it’s a solid little gadget. Initial impressions out of the box are pretty good. This is another stylish Sony speaker. The upward firing speaker has a rubberized texture on the outside. It fits like a pop can in my hand. It stands around 3.3 inches tall. The strap is easy to adjust. The Sony XB100 comes with a a USB-C charging cable. However, I should point out that the charging cable is short. It’s only about a foot long. The USB port appears to only be for charging. Don’t expect audio over a wired connection. There also is no 3.5mm AUX input. There is no Wi-Fi connection, companion app, or Alexa / “Hey Google” integration. The Sony XB100 is IP67 rated. IP stands for ingress protection. The first number is a range of 0 to 6 representing how well the item protects against solids. The second number is presented in a range of 0 to 9 and represents how well the item protects against liquids of various volumes and temperature. The XB100 has a rating of 67. As such, it’s rated for up to thirty minutes in water as deep as a meter or 3.3 feet. Sony advertises battery life at around 16 hours. I seemed to get around that mark in my testing. Audio quality is incredibly subjective. I think it sounds very good, especially considering its size and price point. It’s never going to replace my portable party speaker, but it’s not supposed to. However, having said that, the speaker produces some thump for its small size. There’s a good amount of bass here. Podcast / audiobook vocals were loud and clear. Sometimes, mids got a bit drowned out. But, on the whole, I would say the audio quality is very good. I’m going to pick up another speaker for stereo mode as soon as I can. Conclusion: The XB100 is a great little speaker. If you’re looking for a Bluetooth speaker in this price point, the XB100 is easy to recommend. 5/5

    If you're in search of a high-quality portable Bluetooth speaker, look no further. With its impressive performance and compact design, the Sony Compact Bluetooth Speaker fits the bill. It's a Sony so I expect superior sound quality and it delivers even despite the speakers small size of just two inches. The audio is remarkably clear and powerful. The bass is rich and resonant, while the overall volume is sufficient to enjoy your favorite music or podcasts from up to 40 feet away. Measuring at 3 inches wide and 3.5 inches tall, this speaker is perfectly sized to fit snugly into any backpack without occupying much space. Its build construction is notably sturdy, featuring a combination of durable plastic and a protective metal screen for the speaker. This thoughtful design ensures that you need not worry about accidental damage, allowing you to take the speaker on your adventures without hesitation. The buttons on the speaker are thoughtfully designed, slightly raised for easy access and with a satisfying tactile feedback when pressed. The charger cover is conveniently removable, revealing a standard USB-C port for effortless charging. Moreover, the inclusion of a stylish and convenient strap adds to the overall appeal of the speaker. This strap can be easily attached or detached, providing a secure grip even during moments of vigorous movement. The speaker is designed to withstand jostling and is unlikely to accidentally detach. The build quality looks like a good level of water resistance making it an excellent companion for poolside lounging or any outdoor activities involving water. Battery life has been more than enough. We've been using it for days without charging it again. The one thing I could have wanted was maybe a stainless steel 1/4 inch thread for the base so you could mount it easily for various locations. The XB100 has got impressive sound quality, compact size, sturdy construction, user-friendly design, water resistance, and seamless connectivity. It's a no-brainer.
