    It works fine but not very loud. I have a $49 no-name speaker I bought at the swap meet that’s louder. Anyways I’d recommending upgrading to the $500 Sony speaker which is a lot of money but beautiful loud sound quality

      Hi Sergio,

      Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the XG300. Your feedback about the volume is greatly appreciated. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the speaker is up-to-date. Please refer to this link for more information:

      https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/speakers-wireless-speakers/srs-xg300/software/00283954

      The sound may become low in the following cases. This is not a malfunction.
      -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.

      It is recommended to charge the built-in battery sufficiently.

      You also have the option to adjust the sound settings of the speaker to tailor-fit the sound quality to your needs. You may find this link helpful:

      https://helpguide.sony.net/speaker/srs-xg300/v1/en/contents/TP1000669923.html

      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:
