Nice, but wouldn’t spend extra money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality was nice but should have been better. It was also a bit heavy to carry around at the beach. Also, the so-called speaker function/mic wouldn’t stay connected and had poor mic/sound quality

“Poor sound quality”
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was dissatisfied with this speaker. In my opinion, they should make the necessary adjustments, starting with the sound quality. The sound is not loud enough and appears to be static. It's not worth the high price for the low quality it offers. Sony fell short of my expectations.

-While the speaker is running on power from the rechargeable built-in battery, the sound may become low in the event that the rechargeable built-in battery is running out of power and the CHARGE indicator flashes slowly. This, however, does not indicate a malfunction.
-When the ambient temperature of the speaker is high.
You also have the option to adjust the sound settings of the speaker to tailor-fit the sound quality to your needs. Please refer to this link:

Sony speaker review
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speaker sounded good in a quiet room but not loud enough when there's other noise around

Posted .Hi CalandraC, Thank you for your feedback. We're glad that you like the sound quality in a quiet room. This speaker is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, especially when considering the speaker’s design with an IP67 rating. Meaning it is indeed built to withstand exposure to natural elements such as dust and water.
However, we understand your concern about sound performance when there's other noise around. It's important to note that the sound performance can vary depending on the specific outdoor environment, including factors such as wind, background noise, and open spaces, which may affect the perceived loudness.
In some cases, you might find that the speaker's sound may not be as loud as desired for outdoor use, especially in noisy or wide-open areas. For optimal sound quality and performance, we recommend using the speaker primarily for indoor purposes, where environmental factors are more likely controlled, and you can fully enjoy its audio capabilities.
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. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Erin

Posted .Hello Esty711,
Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your Sony SRSXE300 Portable Speaker. While we're glad you appreciate the sound quality, we're sorry to hear you find the speaker doesn't get very loud as you would like. We want to make sure you are getting the most out of your speaker. Depending on the connected BLUETOOTH device, volume adjustment on the BLUETOOTH device may not change the volume level of the speaker (i.e. the (power) indicator does not flash). When the volume of the speaker sounds low, adjust the volume level of the BLUETOOTH device to an appropriate one, and then adjust the volume level of the speaker with the +/- (volume) buttons on the speaker.
If the Sound becomes low while in use, refer to these helpful links:
https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/speakers-wireless-speakers/srs-xe300/articles/00278737https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xe300/v1/en/contents/TP1000611675.htmlhttps://www.sony.com/electronics/support/speakers-wireless-speakers/srs-xe300/articles/00278737
By downloading the Sony Music Center app, you will find all sorts of tools to fine-tune the speaker using the built-in EQ and maximize the volume to ensure optimal listening experience. To get the most out of the volume, turn up the volume of the speaker and the connected device. 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 need further assistance regarding your concern, you can email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

Posted .Hi JimmyJams, We are glad to hear that you are happy with the SRSXE200 but it is more delightful to hear that you got an upgrade! The XG300 speaker is perfect for bringing a big sound to a portable party. Whether you’re at home or at the beach, park or poolside, this speaker will give you a great sound even at high volume, and will have enough battery life to keep going as long as you do.

Posted .Hi Annthrax,
Thank you for taking the time to review your XG300 speaker. We're so sorry it hasn't performed to your standards when it comes to battery life. We want to make sure you are getting the most out of your speaker. The XG300 will give you 25 hours of play when the battery is fully charged, meaning a single charge should be long enough to power through any party.
Built-in battery life (while the speaker is not in Battery Care mode and a BLUETOOTH connection is established)
Approx. 25 hours: Volume level: 24, Sound: MEGA BASS on, Lighting: off
Approx. 15 hours (default): Volume level: 24, MEGA BASS on, Lighting: on
Approx. 5 hours: Volume level: 50 (MAX.), MEGA BASS on, Lighting: off
Approx. 4 hours: Volume level: 50 (MAX.), MEGA BASS on, Lighting: on
The built-in battery life above is measured using our specified music source. Actual performance time may vary from the listed time due to the volume, songs played, surrounding temperature, and usage conditions.
