    Excellent speaker - wonderful sound! Big enough that it can fill a room but not so large that portability becomes an issue. App has a nice feature where you can set the battery to only charge to 90% which will extend the life of the battery. Only disappointment is with the rubber door on the back that covers the charging port. The seal is not great so the door does not stay shut. That's why I knocked it down from 5 start to 4.

    A Bit Disappointing

    I’m a huge Sony fan. I own and love all their products. From the Playstation, Bravia TV, Wireless Headphones XM4, and Wireless Free Earbuds XM4. I’ve never had a portable speaker from them, but I imagined it would of sounded great based off my experience with their headphones and earbuds. However, my expectations were far greater than what Sony delivered. First, I’m not a fan of the design at all. Not because of how it looks, i think it looks very sleek and cool, but the lack of 360 audio doesn’t work for me. If the speaker isn’t facing towards you, then it sounds muffled, or like you have it in the bathroom with the door closed and you’re listening to it from the outside. Even when you do have it facing towards you, the sound is pretty lackluster still. It sounds tinny and hollow. I don’t know if it’s because of the pentagon shape it is vs the traditional round cylinder shape you usually get from a speaker. It sounds like the music is bouncing off the hollow walls inside the speaker, rather than from the actual tweeters and drivers. The base is decent, but the mids and highs sound tinny and hollow. Adjusting the EQ helped a little, but even then when i compare it to my old UE Mini Boom speaker it’s still not as good to where i want it to be. The Volume is nothing to brag about either. I honestly couldn’t recommend this to anyone, when there are much better speakers on the market. As a huge Sony fan, I hope they come back with a better line of speakers.

      Hi amosvane,

      Thanks for commenting. While we are thrilled to hear that you love our products, we are really sorry if our SRS-XE300 didn't live up to your expectations. We greatly appreciate your feedback with its design and sound quality. The XE300 is specifically designed for audio clarity throughout its volume range. This is something our music-loving customers appreciate most. That being said the XE300 also gets very loud for its size and audio precision. To ensure that you're having the best listening experience, we recommend performing the steps on this Help Guide link:
      https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xe300/v1/en/contents/TP1000611676.html?search=low%20sound%20quality

      You may also find different devices will perform better than others, as will different apps due to different types of audio compression and transmission.

      I hope this helps.

      If there's something we can do to help or you may need an additional information or technical assistance with our product, please feel free to email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details and we'll be more than happy to assist you.

      Hi palekeleke,

      Thanks for commenting! We are extremely pleased to know that you love your XE200. 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.

      Thank you very much for the perfect star review and for choosing Sony!
