Lacking low/deep/heavy bass output
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great mid size portable speaker if you only want clear music. This does not have lots of low or heavy bass so I'm not satisfied with this new Sony model because if that. Note to Sony: Please design/build/program the your next model to have very good low bass and deeper like JBL did with the Partybox line.

Not loud, but great features
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you’re looking for a LOUD speaker- this isn’t it. YES it has amazing features and battery life- but I had the volume up to the MAX in my bedroom and it wasn’t loud enough for me. I personally prefer something louder, without all the extras I do t really know how to operate anyway (ex: the DJ option on the app)

Great speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bass doesn’t hit as hard as the JBL party box 310, but still an amazing speaker.
