Q: What is the range (in feet) of this speaker from original Bluetooth device?

A: Hello, thank you for your message. A power-class 2 Bluetooth® wireless device has a transmission operating range of approximately 30 feet (10 meters) within a line of sight but will vary depending on the surrounding conditions. NOTE: Communication range will vary according to whether walls or other obstacles are located between the devices, the material used in the intervening walls, the presence of Radio Frequency (RF) interference and other environmental conditions, and the type of software being used, if applicable. -Oscar.

Q: Loudness

A: For the size and the price it sounds great, however it is so small don't expect to have a party or dance off, it more for background music or personal listening. It also works great for watching a movie on your laptop or tablet. If is great if you live in a condo or apartment and you don't want to get a letter from the HOA or management company for volume.

Q: My dad has a hearing aid and is looking for a way to hear the phone better

A: Yes, he will and can be able to speak and listen to the speaker.

Q: Can the Sony SRS=X3kit be used to hear a movie being played off net flix by way off an Iphone or Ipad and a chrome device?

A: Hi , there are two ways to listening music of a device 1- using the audio out Jack on the SRSX3 or 2-using the Bluetooth function, these are the Bluetooth profiles that the unit is compatible with A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile). Enables you to enjoy high-quality audio contents wirelessly. AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile) *Emily*

Q: plug into auto cig lighter

A: it charges with usb so if you had a usb power adapter in your cig lighter I bet it would

Q: Can you sync two?

A: I thought about this when I purchased two of them together because they were on such a great deal. I got one for my wife. I forgot about trying it until I read your post. I tried it on my macbook unsuccessfully today. I was able to pair both of the exact same units, however sound only comes out of one of them, the first one that was paired. Was a cool idea! I know there are other types of speaker systems that you can use bluetooth to do this with multiple speakers, however they all have a main unit to pair them all through. From my research online the reason is one of security. Bluetooth was created on the platform of being able to not have any other device retrieve the data being sent. As cool as this idea is to have multiple speakers wirelessly running at the same time, it would go against the initial purpose of bluetooth. I am sure in the future we will have more than one bluetooth's on devices, since we are going more & more wireless with tech. Keep in mind you generally have a 14 day return policy at Best Buy, so try it if you can. Please respond to this post if you are successful in doing so!

Q: Back of the speaker

A: Yes, it is completely covered apart from the ports available for the power cord, audio in port and the reset.~Jeannette

Q: How do I buy this as the deal of the day if it's not available within 250 miles for pick up can I buy it online

A: Hi, we recommend contacting BestBuy near you for further assistance regarding your concern. Dave

Great sound from such a small speaker.
This is my first mini bluetooth speaker and I didn't know what to expect. I know that I am a Sony fan and their products are really great so I decided on Sony especially after reading the great reviews. This is only like 6 inches but the sound is amazing and has nice bass. 20W is a lot of power from such a small speaker. It has more watts than my hunky 17W boombox that I was using. When I play tennis, I bring this speaker and my phone. The bluetooth always works perfectly. Oddly, the music actually plays louder when connected to bluetooth over the audio cable. Rechargeable battery lasts about 7 hours. If you blast it, it is gonna be less time. I would recommend this speaker.

Good Bluetooth Speaker, Not Great
I bought this speaker on sale for I believe $60 because it was being discontinued by Sony. It was a little bass-y sounding, but for it being half-price, it was worth it.

Great Bass. Just a little muffled on Midrange
Hi all, This unit is replacing my stolen Logitech UE mobile boombox ( the really little black one, on sale for $80 ). It was a fantastic speaker, and one of the best values for the money in the whole store. They were out of the black ones, and I don't want purple and lime, so I needed something else. I take the unit to work, so it needs to be slightly rugged. A rubbery outer coating is a plus. A strong grille is a requirement. It must be BT. It must have decent sound ( I understand what I should be getting at this price point ). I prefer black, or some other dark color. No lights, charging ports, or any other such gimmickry. Just a good, rugged, speaker. I checked out the really nice JBL Charge, the Bose SoundLink, the Ultimate Ears Boom, the JBL Pulse, and the Beats Pill. The JBL Charge is very bright, but they want an extra $50 for a USB charging port. The sound is exactly the same as the $79 Flip 2. Nope. The Bose sounds like a 5 speaker system! It fills the whole room with sound. Great, but still a little lacking on bass. At the $199 price point, it's a little more than my budget. The JBL Pulse has good sound, but I don't need or want the lightshow. More gimmickry that is an attempt to distract me from sound quality. Again, $199 is out of range anyway. Then the Beats Pill. The display unit wasn't working, but $199 is still too high. The Ultimate Ears Boom, which is the newer, bigger brother to the UE boombox I am replacing, wasn't working either. But, again, $199, so it didn't matter. Sony had four selections. The SRS-X2, X3, X5, & X7. The X2 was initially the one I wanted to listen to, but it too wasn't working. For just a few more bucks was the X3. Very nice! It stands almost toe to toe with the Bose. Not quite as loud, or as bright, but the bass response is better. The X5, which has a dedicated mid-range speaker, is the best sounding unit in the entire portable speaker section. Including being better than the Bose. But, at $199, it too is out of range. The X5 has much better button build quality, fantastic sound, and not too big of a size. The X3 has been in use with me for about 3 weeks. It had tall shoes to fill after my Logitech. It has performed wonderfully! The bass response is a bit much for spoken word, or really old songs, so there is a "sound mode" button on the unit, which reduces the bass and allows the audio to be much brighter. It great if you're listening to talk radio, morning shows, the news, etc. It works well for classical music too. When not in "sound mode," the bass response is nothing short of magical, for a speaker of it's size and class. Put it in something, like an ice chest, or an empty cabinet, to really get it to resonate. It's quite loud, at least in the empty buildings I work in. I haven't yet been able to turn it up all the way. I have not tested it at a noisy place like the pool or beach. The box has no information on it, so don't even bother. There are no brochures, nothing on the website, and the manual is useless. It's almost as if Sony is trying not to sell any of this line of speakers. All the models are like this. The Bluetooth response is good, and it doesn't get fuzzy if you go to the next room. The range is just a bit less than my Logitech, but it's still good at about 35ft. I haven't seen a way to rename it, so you're stuck with Sony:SRS-X3. The charging light is on top with the buttons. It doesn't appear to change color with the amount of charge, so you're stuck with an amber light. It goes out when the unit is fully charged. The unit charges with a micro USB, so your phone charger can also be used on the speaker. There is also a white power light, just above the power button. All buttons are on top, and are covered with a rubbery membrane. The phone speaker can be toggled from the unit. The button has a picture of a telephone handset on it. Lastly, there is also a 3mm AUX jack in the back, next to the USB port. And a little Reset hole, where you put a paper clip if the unit is responding to a full moon. It's been a good purchase so far (only 3 weeks as of this review). It's a good value for the money. Make that a great value for the money. If you're considering this unit, and you don't want to pay $199 for the next class, this unit is excellent.
