    Sony - XB100 Compact Bluetooth Speaker Review

    I purchased this product to provide better sound and portability when connecting to video meetings via phone and PC. The product itself is a nice sized, easy to use device that connects easily to phone and tablet devices. Sound quality is very good, as is the microphone. Connectivity and set up to get this working on a Win 11 PC is complex and difficult without a high level of capability, hence not suitable for a novice. The help available on the internet only takes you so far. While I have managed to get this working, it did require a few hours of investigation, trial and error, not simple plug and play with Bluetooth connectivity. Note, I would not recommend using the USB connection from your PC to the speaker and expecting it to work, I gave up on that.

    It’s a nice speaker to take on trips. Nice and portable. Battery lasts very long. It has good sound quality for how small it is. It is worth the $39.99 I paid for it when it was on sale. Great alternative then just listening to a cell phone speaker.

    Didn't really know what to expect. Never purchased a Bluetooth speaker before. Glad I got this one. Build quality seems robust and sturdy. Sound quality is a little heavy on the bass end but personally it works for me. I mostly listen to podcasts tho. Battery life is good and lasts me all day. The quick connect feature with Android is a nice touch too that my other Bluetooth devices don't have

    This speaker isn’t as loud as I thought but it definitely good for the shower and maybe just vibing out. I like how the sound goes straight up so if you have an echo room then it would sound a little louder.

The XB100 redefines the boundaries of portable audio with its robust and crystal-clear sound quality. The bass, deep and rich, seems to echo from the depths of the earth, while the treble notes are as light and ethereal as a feather dancing in the breeze. What truly sets the XB100 apart is its innovative True Wireless Stereo technology, allowing you to pair two speakers for an immersive stereo experience that fills any space with dynamic, high-fidelity sound. This feature transforms ordinary gatherings into memorable music-filled events. Moreover, its rugged, waterproof design makes it a fearless companion for all adventures, from sandy beaches to snowy peaks. Battery life? The XB100 has it in spades. It keeps the party going long after other speakers have fallen silent. In summary, the XB100 isn’t just a speaker; it’s a portal to an auditory paradise, a compact herald of high-quality sound, and the ultimate companion for any music enthusiast on the go.

    Huge sound in this little speaker. Super portable. Can be held easily and comfortably with one hand. The cylinder shape and texture make it great to use during phone conversations. Clarity of convo and music is very good. Battery life is pretty good. Better than competitors in my experience anyway. Have not tested the limits of BT range or water resistance.

    This speaker is compact and cute. It is easy to use and charges quickly when charging is needed. I use this speaker in a smaller space, but it also sounds loud enough in larger rooms in my house. I am looking forward to using it at the beach and outside for cookouts. The bass does make the speaker move a bit, nothing crazy though.

    Good Little speaker. It was louder in the store. The volume level with my I Phone can't get as loud as the demo at the store. Good sound quality for indoor use. Overall good speaker for the money as long as you are close by or use it indoors. Battery life is excellent. Holds a charge for a long time.

      Hi JohnL,

      Thanks for commenting! We are thrilled to hear about your satisfaction with the superb performance of your XB100. We appreciate your feedback with the loudness/volume of this portable speaker. For the loudness as well as the sound quality of the speaker, this usually depends on the source that you're playing and audio device that you are using. You can turn up the volume of the speaker and the connected device to isolate the problem. Also, take note that sound becomes low while in use 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.

      Additionally, the SRS-XB100 can also be paired with another SRS-XB100 if you want an even bigger sound.

    Solid sound quality, a surprising amount of bass, and it fits easily into cupholders for any journeyman or renter needing more than the local gospel channels. The only downside is the lackluster battery life

    The make of the speaker and the sound is excellent. It gives enough treble and bass. I bought this for my mother who is having difficulty hearing her audio books and her music off her computer and phone. She also has low vision and was happy to be able to find her speaker, because of the cool color in Orange. It is a beautiful color and just big enough for her to carry with her on her walks around the neighborhood.

      Hi Kymberli, It's wonderful to hear how well the SRS-XB100 has worked out for your mother. The sound quality, with its balanced treble and bass, seems to be perfect for her needs with audio books and music. The vibrant orange color not only makes it easy to spot for those with low vision but also adds a stylish touch. It's great that it's portable enough for her walks too. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Jess Sony_US
