Sony SRS-XB100 Reviews & Tests

Expert review by : Cesci Angell (techradar.com)

Sony SRS-XB100 review: a cheap Bluetooth speaker with good sound but too few features

Portable, durable, but also a little forgettable

Up to 16 hours of battery life ; Compact size ; IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating

Bland design ; Disappointing app support ; Underperforming highs

Affordable and functional, the Sony XB100 delivers satisfying bass and mids. With an IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating and surprising volume for its size, it’d make a good BBQ companion. That said, it lags behind competitors in terms of features...

Sony SRS-XB100 review

Looking for a tiny, portable Bluetooth speaker that sounds great? Sony may have the answer

Lightweight and compact ; Great sound ; Long battery life ; Mic for calls

Sound varies depending where it’s sat ; Could be louder

Lovely little speaker that can kick out some great audio, so long as you place it on the right surface.

Review: Sony SRS-XB100

This Bluetooth-enabled cylinder brings the bass with you everywhere.

Ultra-portable design. Clear and relatively well-balanced sound. Improved bass response. Stylish and grippy exterior. Easy access controls. Google Fast Pair. Great battery life. Excellent dust and waterproofing. Good call quality.

Performance is dependent on placement. No EQ.

Sony SRS-XB100 Review

The $60 Sony SRS-XB100 has an adventure-ready build and delivers more sound than you might expect for such a small speaker.

Sony SRS-XB100 Bluetooth speaker review

This Sony SRS-XB100 Bluetooth speaker doesn't skimp on sound quality and it compact and portable design makes and strong durability make it a winner for life on-the-go inside and out.

Charging woes aside, the Sony SRS-XB100 is a pretty exceptional speaker considering it costs just $59. You can’t get many great devices for that price these days, without making some major trade-offs. It might not have many bells and whistles — no EQ...
