Portable and great sound!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased for my son's birthday. He loves it! We have a larger one that my husband uses, but this one is so much more portable. Excellent sound, good Bluetooth range. He takes it everywhere.

Posted .Hello Customerone,
What a great gift! We're glad that your son is loving the audio quality of his new Sony Portable Bluetooth Speaker. The SRS-XG500 is perfect for taking a powerful sound outside. The combination of the X-Balanced Speaker Unit, High-efficiency Tweeter, and passive radiators deliver a crisp and clear sound whether you’re listening in an indoor space or outside. Plus, with a durable exterior, an IP66 Water-resistant and Dustproof rating (Dustproof and Water-resistant are effective only when the cap is closed), up to 30-hour battery life, and an easy-to-hold handle, you can take it almost wherever you want to go. Thanks for choosing Sony! - Marco
Rockin’ (not so little) Speaker
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very pleased with this purchase! It is a little on the pricey side but I think it was worth the extra pennies! Great bass when you want it and overall excellent sound! I wish you could connect it to the srs-xb43 but it won’t allow it. You can connect it to other speakers of the same type though.
