    Great mid-tones within 1 meter. Clarity is optimal. This is good for travel; the weight makes it easy to carry it around. Although there is noticeable latency when connecting to a computer. It's fairly durable as well.

    Good sound and plenty loud for a unit so small. Some music sounds better than others on this unit. Sometimes the high frequencies seem missing and the middle frequencies seem a bitt muddy, while the bass can sometimes seem heavy, especially at higher volumes. It would have helped if there were equalizer (bass and treble) controls, which this unit does not have.

    It's a sleek speaker that looks great on a shelf without obnoxious glowing LED lights. Which I loved because I used it to play nature sounds for sleeping. It broadcasts the sound nicely, filling a room. I can use all night long around 6 to 9 hours and it takes a few days before I need to charge it. There was also zero issue connecting my phone to it and the app connected immediately and there was no issues there either. It updated quick. There's nothing about this speaker that I dislike.

    We bought this speaker to use during a very informal vow renewal ceremony and it was prefect — very loud (no distortion at high volumes!) and excellent sound quality. Battery life is awesome, too. Since that event, we’ve taken it all kinds of places and it’s been great. Definitely an excellent speaker for the price and miles better than any of the cheaper Bluetooth speakers we’ve purchased in the past.

      Hi ChueV,

      Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the XE300. We're glad that you like the sound quality of the speaker. Your feedback about its volume is greatly appreciated.

      The overall volume may vary depending on the source content. For optimum performance, make sure to charge the built-in battery sufficiently. The sound may become low in the following cases. This is not a malfunction:

      -When the built-in battery is running low and the CHARGE indicator flashes slowly, while the speaker is being powered by the built-in battery only.

      -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.

      -When the ambient temperature of the speaker is high.

      Additionally, you can use the Party Connect function and Stereo Pair function to enjoy a more powerful sound. You may refer to these links for more information:

    So far a great speaker, several pros: Decent batter life, excellent sound quality, easy connectivity. Several cons: No 3.5mm in (I know that's antiquated, but for certain applications it's a must-have), hard to keep clean in dirty environments, voice notifications (batter life, connections, etc.) really annoying. I can live with these grievances, but in the future I'll probably get the bigger version.

      Hi EricP

      Thank you for telling us about your experience with your XE200 speaker. We're truly glad that you like its incredible features, especially the amazing sound, easy Bluetooth pairing, and great battery life. We're sorry, but this unit doesn't feature an AUDIO IN jack. It is a Bluetooth only model. If you want to play music, you can use your smartphone and connect it via Bluetooth connection. However, our XG300 features an aux input jack for connecting devices via a 3.5mm audio cable.

      By using “Sony | Music Center,” you can activate/deactivate the voice guidance associated with the remaining battery power that you hear when you turn on the speaker.
