Sony sounds fabulous
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At last! I have bought several portable speakers in the past, only to grow upset and disappointed with the results upon trying to get the Bluetooth to do what I want. This Sony speaker came with clear instructions, and the thing works beautifully. I couldn’t be more pleased.

Posted .Hello MarthaRand, Awesome! We're glad that found the right Bluetooth speaker!

Easy to use and to connect with other devices, our XE200 speaker sends sound out from a small, compact unit. You can spread sound wider with the Line-Shape Diffuser and enjoy powerful sound pressure and clarity with the X-Balanced Speaker, all housed inside a portable speaker with a handy strap. Thank you for choosing Sony! - Marco
Great choice for a Bluetooth speaker.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I tried the Jbl party box 100 and partybox 1000, the bass was pretty great with those but the sound quality was muddled and unclear. This Sony speaker obviously doesn’t have the bass like the jbl speakers but it has much better sound clarity. I am very happy with this little Sony, I may buy another.

Sturdy speaker for decent sound
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Speaker is sturdy and sound is decent with good bass. Easy to use in mono mode but the stereo option (if you own two) unfortunately requires the app to be opened each time you want to enable stereo. Although they sound good in stereo given the sound stage of the music the sound can drop out momentarily due to signal issues.

Would Be 5 Stars Except...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This speaker has everything great except that I thought it would be louder. Based on the design, I thought it would achieve high volume to go with that punchy bass...

Decent bathroom speaker
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this for tunes while I get ready for work in the morning. It definitely is waterproof for the shower. Maybe I am losing my hearing in my old age but JBL and even ONN speakers seem to have better clarity in sound. Still it works for what I got it for.

Cool music

I would recommend this to a friendSony The Bomb
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What can I say, Sony is the bomb for sound and quality. I have tried JBL extreme 3 and the charge 5 but Sony has the much better sound for this portable speaker. Jbl has too much treble and mids, yes you can adjust the eq but Sony out the box has the much better sound quality I'm looking for. The Sony app has a better set-up, very sophisticated.

Decent sound for the price
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice sound for a small speaker.. it does cut lower when battery starts to drain. I was expecting the battery to last a bit longer, but I primarily use it in my work van and plug into cig lighter usb charger. Decent for the price!

Bass is good but…
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Enjoyed most music from these (bought 2 for stereo) but overall sound is muffled. Getting them to play in stereo requires going to app and setting it up everytime. Not convenient at all and there were times one speaker would cut out. Speakers would not turn off automatically either even though a 15 minute timer was part of their DNA supposedly.

Posted .Hi TMonk,
Thank you for taking the time to review your SRS-XE300 speaker. We're sorry to hear it hasn't performed to your standards when it comes to the sound quality. We want to make sure you are getting the most out of your speaker. By downloading the Sony Music Center app, you will find all sorts of tools to fine-tune the speaker using the built-in EQ to ensure optimal listening experience. Additionally, we recommend to update the pre-installed software to the latest version on each and every speaker.
It's important to note that when using the Stereo Pair and Part Connect function , the codec automatically switches to SBC. You may also find different devices will perform better than others, as will different apps due to different types of audio compression and transmission. If you're encountering distorted sound, humming, or noise in your speaker output, please follow the steps outlined in the links below to help resolve the issue.

https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/speakers-wireless-speakers/srs-xe300/articles/00245763
XE300 has an Auto Standby function where it turns off automatically for about 15 minutes if the speaker satisfies the following conditions (At the time of purchase, the Auto Standby function is set to on):
-No operation on the speaker.
-The hands-free function of the connected smartphone or mobile phone is set to off and the smartphone or mobile phone is not playing music (audio), nor is it being operated. For details, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the smartphone or mobile phone.
-The connected BLUETOOTH device, such as a WALKMAN®, is not playing music (audio), nor is it being operated.

It's mediocre
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great speaker but the only cons it has: slim directional sound and lacking lower end (sub). So for a person who is looking hard bass, this is no it. Its awesome if you bring it to a pool party.

Posted .Hi Joseph, we're glad you are enjoying our product. We understand your feedback regarding the bass on your Sony unit;.

This function is designed to detect environmental noises during music playback and help reduce power consumption and preserve the battery by cutting out bass sounds that may become hard to hear because of the ambient noise.
