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 ErrolA, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your SRSXE300. While we're glad you like the excellent battery life, we regret to hear about the volume level did not meet your expectations. To ensure optimal listening experience, please follow the steps on this link:
https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xe300/v1/en/contents/TP1000611676.html
Please note: 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.
If the sound becomes low while in use, follow the procedure below.
-Turn off the speaker.
-Charge the built-in battery sufficiently.
We also have noted your input about the lack of auxiliary input and will be sure to forward this feedback to the appropriate department.

Versatile and Great Sound
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very nice Bluetooth speaker in terms of solid construction and the ease of Bluetooth pairing with your cell phone, TV or PC. It has all the best features for dustproof, waterproof and shockproof design. Bass reproduction is very strong although the overall volume capability was lower on my non-Sony brand TV. However from the PC or cell phone - the volume was louder. Also on my Sony brand TV the volume could be set very loud. On the non-Sony brand TV there was also a pop-up from the TV every time I turned the system on to ask if I wanted the Bluetooth speaker. On the Sony TV on every power on the Bluetooth Sony speaker just connected automatically. This could be important to know if you are interested in using this speaker for enhanced TV audio. On the very positive side, any TV I used had far better sound using this small Bluetooth speaker than the internal speakers. This I believe is at least partly due to Sony's ‘Line-Shape Diffuser’ technology that distributes the sound energy evenly – I have to say this did work nicely. I did find that if needed, the claim of 70 minutes playback with only 10 minutes charge time was indeed true. Be aware that even though the Bluetooth blue LED is blinking, the speaker does not attempt to pair unless you tap the Bluetooth button on the speaker. Of course a fantastic option is connecting this Bluetooth speaker to your cell phone. Download the Sony Music Center app and you will have added facilities for shaping the sound. You can also enable the microphone on this device and use it with Alexa or Google to ask the time or other commands. Great product and I highly recommend it.

Posted .Hi RalphHenry, Thank you for the fantastic and thorough review of your new Sony SRS-XE200! We're glad you like the solid construction, easy Bluetooth pairing, IP67 rating, powerful bass, quick charging, easy to use Sony Music Center app, and excellent sound quality of your new Bluetooth speaker.
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. The XE200 will give you 16-hours of play when the battery is fully charged, that means that a single charge should be long enough to power through any party. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam

Could be better, could be worse.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a horrible speaker, wish the audio was a little bit more crisp, and battery is pretty bad, it seems like it needs charged pretty often. Yet it still succeeds what what it needs to, so its a fairly avarage speaker.

Posted .Hi JonathanS, Thank you for your feedback on the SRS-XE300. We're sorry to hear that the audio quality and battery life did not meet your expectations. The SRS-XE300 is designed to deliver clear and powerful sound, and we want to ensure you get the best experience possible.
To enhance the audio crispness, we recommend using the Sony Music Center app, which allows you to fine-tune the sound settings, including the equalizer (EQ) options. This can help you achieve the desired audio quality.
Regarding the battery life, it's important to fully charge the speaker, especially after it has gone below 20 or 10%, as this can impact performance. Additionally, turning on the STAMINA function and lowering the volume can help protect the battery and extend its life.

Posted .Hi Tito, Thank you for taking the time to review your SRS-XE300 speaker. While we're glad you like most of the features and voice guidance associated with the remaining battery power, we're sorry to hear it hasn't performed to your standards when it comes to the bass sound and you find the speaker doesn't get very loud. We want to make sure you are getting the most out of your speaker.
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.
Additionally, if there is ambient noise or another speaker nearby, the Ambient Noise Sensing function may activate and cause this issue. You can deactivate the Ambient Noise Sensing function using the Sony | Music Center app or speaker button. For more details, refer to this Help Guide link: https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xe300/v1/en/contents/TP1000669370.html
The XE300 speaker is perfect for bringing quality sound to your party. The Line-Shape Diffuser sends a wide sound all around, without compromising on quality. Plus, with a long battery life, portable size and impressive durability, this speaker is the perfect partner for your next party, wherever that might be. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Jess
