    Great sound, battery life. I love the speaker the lights on the side are little underwhelming but you want a speaker for the sound not the lights. Definitely worth buying especially on sale!

    I’ve had the device for 3 years now and it’s never failed me one, battery lasts for a very long time the bass isn’t the best but what mobile speaker at that size does have good bass. I’ve taken the speaker to many fields and even went kayaking with the device and always works perfectly. Speaker range is more than half a football field.

    Bought this thing when it was on sale and it was the best decision that I made. Battery life on this thing is amazing and the sound is crystal clear. 10 out of 10 and would recommend as it sole purpose for me was to have it for our beach trip.

    This speaker is worth buying. I've put it through its paces while BBQing and just chilling at home. The bass is punchy and responsive yet not overpowering. The light effects also make it something fun to look at while vibing to music.

    We bought this on sale at $249 and couldnt be happier. It "plugs and plays" so easily with Android and iOS. It sounds almost great. The battery life is phenomenal and the build quality is top notch. If the sound were just a little vit better; I'd buy another and use them as stereo speakers.

    I take this speaker everywhere, it has enough volume to place it outside at party‘a in parks. I can hear the speaker while I’m wearing hearing protection and working 20ft away from it and it’s not even at its max volume. If I’m playing a song and get into my car I don’t bother switching to my car stereo. This thing is great it lasts all work day plus some! Only thing I don’t like about it is the charge feature it really doesn’t charge the phone but more like makes the phone die slower I know it’s more of a gimmick but would only recommend using this as an emergency power bank if your using a low power phone or a gps of some kind.

    These speakers are astonishingly clear for a small speaker. Especially at softer volumes. When two of them are coupled together for a stereo effect, they become even better. I highly suggest using them in smaller spaces like an office or bedroom.

      Hi music, We're very grateful for this positive feedback! We're glad you like the audio clarity and excellent stereo sound using the stereo pair function. The 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. Pair with IP67 Water resistance, dustproof and shockproof design, this speaker is made for even the strongest elements. Keep the party going with up to 16-hours of battery life on a single charge and USB-C quick charging gives you up to 70 minutes of playback after just 10 minutes of charge time. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam Sony_US

    It works overall and is sufficient for casual use. Nothing too fancy. I did however take a second look at brand once I listened to it. I thought the sound would be better for the cost and brand name. the outside is made of a material that gets dirty easily. The size and shape are nice. If you want to Jam - this is not the unit to get.

    Great volume, great battery, great connectivity (low Bluetooth Latency and an Aux port). Sony knocked it out the park with this one. The ShortCiruit video on this (along with them saying the price of $349.99 being a great price) really holds true.
