    Ok like I am super old school. I remember taking my boom box everywhere I went. That was the thing to do. Nowadays everything is compact. And hidden. I love this speaker. First the color. And sound is amazing. Super easy hook up to the phone Bluetooth. Volume control on phone or speaker. I have taken this thing everywhere. Fits super comfortable anywhere. You can show it or hide it. Not too heavy. Charges fast. A very good product.

    This speaker is amazing! I have been using Sony products since the 90's and the brand has always backed up its claim to quality. The battery life is good and the sound is heaven! The bass is very noticeable, no need for am extra bass button. I love how it literally has 360 degrees of speaker so the whole room can hear it. I am enjoying this speaker to the max and would recommend it to anyone!

    Great speaker, clear sound

    This speaker has crystal clear sound with no distortion at the higher end, the only reason for the 4 Star rating is that the unit doesn't seem to reach higher volumes like other units, say like a JBL. Battery life is great, I've only charged it maybe 3 times in the span of a month with moderate use. There an optional app for the device that allows you to adjust the bass, treble and mids as well other options such as pairing with multiple speakers. All in all a solid unit even with the shortfall on the max volume.

    A very good speaker. I don’t think it packed as much power as I would have liked in regards to volume as bass. Not a ton of low end, even though you can help that a tad bit with the app’s EQ. Sound is very clear and the battery seems to last as long as advertised. Not sure why this level of speaker has skyrocketed as far as price, but this seemed to be the best deal for the price point when I listened to a few at the store.

    One of my favorite purchases ever, I use this at work and at home. I work in a factory so the environment is loud and this breaks through the sound and still be loud! It’s also got some good quality audio. I also love using this with thunderstorm and rain sounds at home. It’s got a nice balance between base and treble with the nice crisp audio that it honestly sometimes sounds like there an actual storm going on!

    Put this speaker in my garage/workout area. Great sound - loud enough that I need to be aware how loud it is to my neighbors. Sound is clear regardless of volume. Charged it the first time, then used it for 15-20 hours before it needed another charge (I don't know exactly how long - I just know I used it for an 1+ each day for 2 weeks before it told me it needed a recharge!). Not sure if I would have paid full price ($350+/-) for it but for the $150 I paid, it is one of the best purchase I've made in a long time.

    Impulsively grabbed this for a camping trip and was pleased to find that it exceeded any expectations i had. People hanging out around our tent would ask, puzzled look on their faces "where's that music coming from?" and i'd point to this little guy, and they would be confused that something this size could put out such great sound. Super easy to use, and holds a decent charge. Would 100% buy again!

    Pros: Easy to use Cool Lighting Effects Sound Level (Loudness) is mid tier Can pair with a 2nd speaker for stereo Can also pair with multiple 3rd party speakers for "party mode" Can charge a phone while listening. (All these features make it great for the beach!) Cons: 2nd device pairing fails sometimes speakers are not loud enough for large outdoor spaces. (Perfect for indoors though if you want it loud) no way to control your songs from the device itself.

    Produces a high-quality sound and can reach loud volumes to fill a room, or more. There's a button to add more bass. It connects easily by Bluetooth to phone or computer (and also a 3.5mm input jack [not included]). It includes a USB-C charger with cable. There's a USB-A port where you can hook up a device that you wish to charge up (cable not included). Push a button and activate lights on the end that pulse along with the music. I enjoy using it around the house each day.

    I use this for the gym, they have a Bluetooth set up I can use but it’s somewhat complicated to set up. I bought this so I could have an easier and more mobile sound system and it honestly blows me away how amazing this speaker sounds for its size. The bass is top notch and its crisp sound is icing on the cake. It’s loud, clear, and booming!

    this is a very capable Bluetooth speaker, it has an amazing battery life the music is very clean and clear the only real cons on this breaker is that it does not get loud enough, there are just to many speakers at this price point that get way louder and sound just as good. So even though I rate it well I would encourage other to check the marketplace as there are a lot of less expensive speakers that sound just as well in addition to being louder with many of them retailing for a lower price.
