Posted .Hi user962312, Great! We're glad you like the amazing sound quality of your Sony SRSXE200. To ensure optimal listening experience, install the Sony Music Center app to adjust the equalizer and set the BLUETOOTH connection quality to "Priority on Sound Quality". The “Priority on Sound Quality” preference provides compatibility not only with SBC but also with AAC and LDAC* for music playback of high sound quality. 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

Not feeling this, literally. Too subpar. Avoid it.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First, what good that is here, as this isn't like God awful. The size & weight is very similar & comparable to probably one of their biggest competitors the JBL Charge 5. Ok, this is slightly bigger, but it's comparable and find a friend or family member who has a JBL Charge 5. If you can live with that for portability, you can live with this. Also, while not going to praise the sound much, what it's doing here it's doing well. It's like listening to a singer or band who isn't great, but keeps from being terrible because they know & are aware of their range and what their capable of and while they stick to that, their fine. Same concept here. Ok, obviously this speaker didn't get 2 stars from being great. Let's dive into the bad. First, maybe I should've gotten a black version instead of a blue one, because I immediately see smudges from my fingerprints, but everyone (seemingly) gets a black or gray version, I wanted something slightly different. That's not really much of an issue. What is to me is there's no real defined spot to sit this on. Seriously feel like over a short space of time whatever side I decide to put it on will get more scuffed up than both other sides and in comparison with a speaker that has a defined spot to sit it on, like the JBL Charge 5, for comparison, has numerous rubber lines on the bottom that form a surprisingly durable base. Oh, and as I continue, I get that I'm comparing a lot to the JBL Charge 5 here and I'm NOT wanting to sound like this review is an endorsement for the JBL Charge 5, I'm just using it because it's a similar all around speaker by a competitive brand that's proven to be popular. Moving on, the lack of a defined spot to sit it on wasn't the only design element lacking here. The fabric, what limited amount there is here, is fine, however you can feel the plastic, uh whatever they used to keep it's shape how they want it, and it feels like it has limited durability. In the hands of someone who takes good care of their things it'll be fine, but for real, this isn't what you want say your 5 year old to be handling, accident waiting to happen if you're not cautious. Ok, so next is sound quality. Actually, the notion of their "Line-Shape Diffuser" works quite well, nearly exactly as you want and expect and even hope it will. As I said in the beginning, while sticking to what their goal is this does well. However I don't know about the majority, but I for one want to FEEL the bass in a speaker, especially a decent sized one. I get there's no little subs on this, but even holding it in your hand and cranking the music you're just not going to feel any bass. That was really what pushed this over the edge. A few fingerprints & smudges? I could learn to live with that. A few scuffs from whatever side I end up resting it on? I could learn to live with that too. Be careful as it's not too durable? I am typically cautious anyway so not a biggie. Pretty much zero bass in a good sized speaker? Yeah, that's the real reason it got returned. No I don't recommend this for anyone. The JBL Charge 5? I suppose, but not to sound like a singing endorsement for JBL I'll say that the Sony XG-300, which is often on sale for $200 (regular price of $300 so watch for sales, they really do happen) is a superb choice too. A bit bigger and heavier, but it has a handle so it's not as restricting and is more accommodating. Sony can and does have not just good, but truly great bluetooth speakers, available right now even, this here just isn't one of them. Oh, and on an ending note, not to be a complete hater of this I suppose if you got it as a gift or even if the price becomes a $100 or less I could justify this. Price isn't a big factor here, but it'd help.

Disappointed
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So disappointed in this purchase. The sound had decent clarity but bass levels and overall loudness was far less than desired. I've paid $49 for Anker speakers that are louder and just as clear. Don't be deceived by the "LIVE LIFE LOUD" on side of box because it definitely is not loud.

Disappointing
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had high hopes for this speaker. As a long time user of Sony headphones and one other of their bluetooth speakers I though it would be a solid upgrade to my already years old alternatives. After using the XE300, however, I'm flabbergasted. It doesn't sound much better than other no name brand speakers you could pick up for half the price. I was hoping this XE300 would finally unseat my old JBL Charge 4 as my goto bluetooth speaker. The Charge 4 has served me well over the years. It's taken it's share of abuse and yet it still sounds better. I don't understand it. Sony touts the bass of the XE300. I find it middling at best. They say that the new design provides room filling sound. I disagree and believe my older speakers do a much better job. In order to get the XE300 to sound anywhere close to my old speaker (which was simply paired and used) I had to go into eq settings and fiddle around. Even then the results weren't great. Depending on the type of music played, I'd have to go back and fiddle some more. Sony, you make some of the best headphones I've ever owned. Why do your bluetooth speakers always seem to fall short?

Not for everyone.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you love music and want a speaker to fill the room--this isn't it. I love sony headphones and thought this would be a great investment based on the other reviews. It was terrible. The speaker design does not allow the music to be heard clearly away from the speaker. I know I'm an outlier, but if you love music and being surrounded by clear, crisp sounds--this is not the one. I returned it promptly.

Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is NOT loud as expected. It can fill a small room with good sound but once taken outside for outdoor fun, it loses all credibility as the sound has no real reach. I have an older $75 apeaker from Amazon that sounds way better. Too bad I can't return this item, I just tried it this weekend for an outdoor event and everyone complained on how low it sounded.
