Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the XP500's impressive sound quality, deep bass, and long battery life as key strengths. Its portability and loud volume are also frequently praised, making it ideal for parties and outdoor use. While some find it a bit heavy, the water resistance and attractive design are generally well-received. A few users mentioned that the price point could be improved and the app requires some enhancements.

    Speaker is loud and battery is great! Reccomend with a blue tooth app getting an equalizer app to adjust for cleaner highs. I would reccomend this speaker for anyone looking for a great bluetooth speaker. We use it for cookouts and outdoor gatherings. Its loud enough that we only turn it up half way and still can hear it far away. For the price its up there with the best.

    In my opinion, this speaker is perfect for me. It's loud and boomy on low volume and gets really loud at high volume without distortion. I also connected an electric guitar and a mic and it's flawless. It also has a Usb connection that you can conned and a flash drive but music tracks can be controlled through the Sony Music Center app. I'm happy with my purchase.
