Good for the money but needs more volume.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds good when in the office, but lacks the ability to keep up outside. I wish it was a little louder. But worth the money none the less.

Posted .Hi AndrewS, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your SRSXB100. The SRS-XB100 is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, especially when considering the speaker’s design with an IP67 rating. Meaning it is indeed built to withstand exposure to natural elements such as dust and water. The SRS-XB100 can certainly function in various environments.
However, we understand your concern about sound performance when using the speaker outdoors. 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 Hope this helps!
The SRS-XB100 has up to 16 hours of battery life, waterproof and dustproof with an IP67 rating. and comes with a durable exterior and multi-way strap so it’s perfect for life on the go. Whether you’re at home or out and about, the built-in microphone lets you enjoy hands-free calling straight through your speaker. And you can count on better, clearer calls with Echo Cancelling, which allows two people to talk at the same time without cutting off either of them. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam

Good product for bedroom/office areas. Not loud.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good product, seems like it got less loud the longer we’ve had it. For the price it’s justified though.

A small but very powerful speaker
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m not easily impressed, but this Sony SRS-XB100 is a very small, and very cool speaker. And it is so small that it’s hard to imagine the sound that’s coming out of it. From a size perspective, it is 3.7” tall, 2.9” wide, and 3.4” deep, yet the bass coming out of this thing is outstanding. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised since the bass has been outstanding in every SRS model I’ve owned. Still, it’s so small… Upon receipt, I plugged the speaker in to ensure a full charge. It uses (and they provide) a USB-C type cable. While charging, a small red LED appears next to the Power button indicating that it was charging. That light disappeared once charging was done. The controls sit toward the bottom-side of the speaker. They consist of the following: • Power Button • Bluetooth Button • Pause/Play • Minus (reduce volume) • Plus (increase volume) There’s a small microphone slot located directly under the Pause/Play button. Pairing the speaker to my iPhone was seamless. The speaker went into pairing mode as soon as I powered it on. I went into Settings on my phone, then Bluetooth. I then selected the SRS-XB051 device, and it was done. Very easy! With the speaker turned on and paired, I went to my music app and selected music to play. Chicago sounded outstanding. The same goes for Sammy Smith. In fact, everything I play sounds top-notch – even my Audible books. And this little speaker offers up to 16 hours of play time. Sony has documented some features of this speaker. They include but are not limited to the following: • IP67 Waterproof and Dustproof Rating. • Compatible with a second speaker for stereo sound, although the second speaker must also be an SRS-XB100. • Echo cancelling technology when paired with the microphone. • This speaker has been tested and maintains it operability when gently submersed in water to a depth of 1m and left for 30 minutes. [Note that a different article indicated a depth of 1ft. Not sure which is correct.] Note that Sony recommends not placing this speaker directly on sand. It’s not hard to rave on this speaker; it’s really that good. As such, I am giving this speaker a 5-star rating.

Great sound, horrible support.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does not play with windows 11 and so far no firmware update or support from Sony. No mention of it not working on Win 11. It recognized the speaker but no sound. Known issue posts all over the internet about it.
