SRS-XB100 Wireless Bluetooth Portable Lightweight Super-Compact Travel Speaker, Durable IP67 Waterproof & Dustproof Shower Speaker, 16 Hour Battery, Versatile Strap, & Hands-free Calling, Orange

I love the sound. This little Bluetooth speaker cost me a little more than half a Benjamin and turns my smartphone into a respectable sound system. Plus, it’s compact, portable, battery powered (for approximately six to eight hours at high volumes w/quick recharge using the newest standardized rechargeable/data connection that has a small, rounded-rectangular “pill”-shaped reversible plug), waterproof, and incredibly drop-resistant. When I drop it, instead of worrying I tell myself, "Relax, it's a Sony, it will be fine," and it always is. This is actually my second one. I dropped the first speaker many dozens of times over the past four years (easily 50+) and it continued to play flawlessly. What finally pushed me to replace it wasn’t normal wear and tear. During a cross-town move from Brooklyn to Manhattan, I carelessly packed it in an open box. A sudden stop from the moving van bounced it out of the unsecured box, and a heavy table ended up resting on top of it. Amazingly, it wasn’t crushed or dented. The only issue was a slight decline in sound quality at higher volumes — the bass was no longer as clean. Considering what it survived, I was thrilled to find another one just like it for sale on Amazon. Because it’s affordable and so durable, I kept the original as a backup and bought a new one.

Setup was quick and the Bluetooth connection has been stable so far. The speaker feels well built and the compact design makes it easy to carry anywhere. Sound quality is good for casual listening, and the battery seems to last a long time between charges. It won’t replace a large speaker, but for travel or a desk setup it works really well.

I really like this speaker. It’s very small/compact but has a very nice, high quality, clear sound. The Bluetooth connection is SUPER easy to use; I just downloaded the app and it connected immediately - no repeated set up attempts and no fuss! And the Bluetooth connection doesn't drop - even when switching back and forth between multiple phones/devices which is somewhat rare with these kinds of speakers. It has a strap with a "buckle" so you can strap it on to almost anything and it's also waterproof which gives me peace of mind since I'm using it in the bathroom to listen to while showering etc. It plays a LONG time on a charge but you can also keep it plugged in all the time with the easy to use USB-C port. It's not the loudest speaker in the world but given it's very compact size, I really wouldn't expect it to be and I'd prefer crisp sound over booming volume. I would NOT recommend this you are trying to find a speaker for a large room or to hear throughout multiple rooms but for smaller areas (like a deck/patio, a smaller bedroom, or a bathroom which is where I am using it), it's an incredible deal. I got it on sale during prime days but depending on the color and when you buy, I've seen it at or near the same low price since. I'm definitely happy with this purchase!

I reserved judgement until I could get a good well-rounded opinion, as I've never personally or directly owned a Sony product before. My family has a long history of consumerism, but I was never the owner. As far as the packaging, it was all recyclable and the speaker is also made of recycled material. There was no unnecessary wrap or filler pieces, as the stereo is a solid short piece and didn't much need to be protected. It's about the size of a soda can but shorter, as they describe, and no frills. All capabilities also. It comes with a strap and charging cable, which is super handy (not the cable, I've got 100 of those, but I do appreciate it's the thought that counts). I mostly use it at night for my sleep sounds. I do also use it for the car, since my car is older and doesn't have anything fancy. I also use it for the kids sleep and nap sounds. However, now that I've had it for over a year, recently it's started to cut out at night and turn off. I cannot figure out why, but I suspect it's my sound app (which shouldn't turn off either). I'm not going back to the listing, but based on the box, I believe it is waterproof. Considering my current limitations, I have no interest in testing this matter. There's no standard/old school battery to replace. And Bluetooth connection has a range up to about 50 feet before it cuts. Pros: compact, small, easy to travel with; fits in cupholders; decent sound, with a wide range. Cons: loud "on" jingle, super annoying; the cutting out thing. Overall, I do still think it's a great value, and worth it. You can carry it on or in a purse or backpack of almost any size. I got the light grey, which allows me to see it in my black purse interior.

Overall, amazingly powerful little speaker with far-reaching range, great sound quality, and long battery life. I use this speaker daily in the bathroom when I’m in the shower and getting ready. I love the loop feature because I hang it over a towel hook while I shower. Because it’s waterproof, I’m sure you could take it in there with you, but I personally don’t have the hook or shelf space to accommodate an extra item. Whether it’s a getting ready playlist or a favorite podcast, this speaker lets out great range to hear over my shower faucet and noisy exhaust fan. When I’m done there, the soft-touch material of the buttons make it easy to turn down the music while I do my make-up. This little device is so lightweight and portable, and I frequently bring it into the kitchen when me while I’m cooking or tidying up. You can easily connect it to multiple devices (I have my phone, my iPad, and partner’s phones connected) so that anyone can play DJ. My only gripe with this speaker, and I knew it going in, is that I wish it had a skip button. Sometimes I’m not feeling a certain song, but if I’m in the shower, I’m stuck with it! First world problem, I know, but it would really elevate the experience if there were skip and rewind buttons. Other than that, amazing speaker and so happy I purchased it! Give it a try and you won’t regret it!

Great sound quality and very lightweight. Clear voice when placing a call. Better suited for smaller areas. Great price! Easy to use.

This is a nice speaker. It's easy to connect, got a great sound, goes loud, and looks good.

Great portable speaker. Bass is outstanding for Bluetooth speaker. Waterproof and easy Bluetooth setup with iPhone. Comes with charging cable. Easy to take on the road or outdoors, also super functional for just sitting outside on the porch. Highly recommend!
