Reviews around battery life (4.62 of 5)

  • One issue I did have and found that other people have, though, is that it will stutter as if it’s buffering about once per song when connected to an Android phone running 6.0 Marshmallow, which admittedly is a few years old now
  • This Speakers has big but detailed sound as well as an excellent battery life
  • Took this on a float trip and the battery life is very good
  • The battery life is great and the sound is good enough, so for the $99 price tag, it's a good deal.
  • This is a great speaker, very good sound, very good battery life

Reviews around light (4.49 of 5)

  • However, I expect longer life now that I have seen all the lighting modes I need to see and have disabled the lighting
  • I like that its water and dust proof and the lights are cool
  • Great bass and the lights are pretty cool when you have them going
  • The lights are cool even if they don't synch with the music
  • We turned off the stupid lights--a bug to us olds, but you might like them

Reviews around product (4.47 of 5)

  • I don`t know if I got a defective product or that`s just how they are
  • Awesome sound though with nice bass; an overall great little product.
  • When this Sony popped up in my Amazon Vine queue for products available for sampling and review, I almost passed on it since I already have all I need in small BT speakers, but the synced lighting effects on the face of the unit looked kind of fun to me (besides affording my wife the opportunity to roll her eyes at me saying, "Really
  • I love Sony products so I am a big fan and expected a lot from this speaker
  • But neither detracts from what is a simply an outstanding product!In short, there are no downsides for me - and overall, I could not be happier with this unit

Reviews around price (4.41 of 5)

  • The sound is great and loud for such a small speaker and reasonably priced speaker
  • It is either defective, or the quality of this speaker is definitely NOT worth the hefty price tag
  • Best buy wanted 100 bucks for the same speaker so this is an awesome price.
  • This is absolutely one of the best portable Bluetooth speakers I've ever heard or used for a great price!
  • Sony has managed to get everything right with this portable wireless Bluetooth speaker and managed to get the price fairly reasonable as well

Reviews around music (4.14 of 5)

  • It's lazy, and it ruins anything but a subset of popular music with no complexity to lose in the first place
  • It's lazy, and it ruins anything but a subset of popular music with no complexity to lose in the first place
  • I got to thinking, in order to be fair and give Sony the benefit of the doubt, I had failed to consider in my first test run and review, that the short battery life might have been the victim of running the "light show" on the speaker, the whole time that it was playing loud music
  • While this is fine music, it's not so great for normal speech
  • so you get additional sounds out of while your favorite music is playing

Reviews around sony (4.09 of 5)

  • The only other experience I've had with Sony wireless speakers is with the Sony XB40 Portable Wireless Speaker with Bluetooth and Speaker Lights, Black, and that was very positive
  • (Sony XB10 Portable Wireless Speaker with Bluetooth, Black) speakers and assumed these would be like those but bigger and better
  • Sony have simply exceeded my expectations with this Bluetooth speaker
  • Sony also reduced the number of controls on the top of the device, which is okay, since you are able to access all of the options via the Sony Music app
  • The speaker is loud, and maybe the Bose sounds better (sound link, sound revolve, etc, but they dont't sound as loud as the Sony, in my opinion I wanted to buy the best speaker there was an jbl that cost 450$ but it was to big, Sony is the best portable speaker period I checked all speakers in the store

Reviews around bass (3.72 of 5)

  • These small Bluetooth speakers purposely overemphasize bass and trick the ear into being impressed
  • This is a nice speaker with amazing bass sounds and cool lights
  • Great bass and the lights are pretty cool when you have them going
  • Great bass and the lights are pretty cool when you have them going
  • At lower levels the XB21 sounds good, but as you raise the volume, you lose bass

Reviews around feature (3.71 of 5)

  • I didn’t like the “live” feature even though it’s supposed to make it sound better
  • LOL.The multi-directional feature is cool, and works great for a small speaker like this.
  • outlet!There are a couple of odd features that I don't expect to ever use: strike it at different locations to create sounds, and daisy chain 100 of them (yes, 100)
  • I personally think this feature is lame, and I can't really see what, if anything in the music is cueing the lights
  • Excellent sound quality for the price and the RGB light features are incredible

Reviews around case (2.33 of 5)

  • Worst case scenario, after having deleted the app (apps; there are two that sounded likely but
  • Usually, I would recommend this option; however, the flat line on the EQ did sound as good as if you elevated each of the three areas (treble, midtone, bass) in some successive pattern
  • On my first test run, I had played it with the light show going the full time, as well as with the above average sound level
  • I also got a hard case that fits perfectly (Esimen 2018 Design Hard Case

Reviews around star (2.33 of 5)

  • We use it for background music at home as well as when my daughters are practicing routines with their music.
  • Where it loses stars is the power cord and battery life
  • The color changing LED’s are really fun and give a cool ambiance to any party scene.
  • If you pour water on your speaker you don't have to worry as it will bead off the thing.

Reviews around bite (1.44 of 5)

  • It may be a bit harsh, but when a company makes a bold claim, they need to deliver on it
  • It's always a bit difficult to review a non-book item as I never know how long it will last
  • The light system, while gimmicky, adds a bit of fun, as does the ability to setup multiple speakers in a group
  • The music app is a bit difficult for me at first, yet it all depended on if I had enabled Bluetooth, and registering this baby was not allowed at one point,
  • While the flashing lights are great for when I have guests, personally I enjoy the lights when I'm home alone too because I just love a bit of a light show any old time
