Lovely sounds from this box love it and it’s easy adore it

We love this Bluetooth speaker! It is a great size for small spaces.

It's the Alan Shearer of the Blue Tooth Speaker world

I’ve had this speaker a few weeks now and I wouldn’t go back. My husband always insists on another brand of speaker which we have all around the house but this speaker knocks spots off them. My two sons keep hijacking this speaker and I think secretly my husband agrees it sounds better. It was easy to set up (much easier than the other speakers) and looks great.

Did the research and settled on this unit and I am very satisfied.

I bought this about a month ago and now it doesn’t power on. It doesn’t do anything. Nothing happens when I plug it in, it’s just dead.

I am Happy becouse It has got a good subwoofer, you can put a micro

It will shake the house down in just a small package

Great sound and features. Lovely design, bass in incredible. Love it!

Got it for my birthday, was in my wishlist for a while now. Chose this one cause of battery endurance, look, weight, capacity and price after comparing it with a lot of other similar boxes. It is worth it. Sounds good, Looks nice, app helps you make easy adjustments, also responds on connection via my smart watch which is nice during training sessions. And it has a nice price - not too expensive, and Sony for me has a good reputation for sound products. It is a big box, so do not under estimate its size, but if that is exactly what you are looking for, it is perfect.

I would have hoped it would be louder. Works good not as much control as I would have liked. Have a jbl earlier model seems just as loud and sounds just as good.

Got it for a birthday present. The sound is really great! I use it all the time out on the patio, or in the house listening to all my old rock from the 80s.

The performance on this speaker incredibly loud! Think I should have bought the smaller one lol 😆.

This speaker is INCREDIBLE. You don’t even have to go full blast for you to feel the bass in every song. The battery life is fantastic as well. But… it is a big lad. I could definitely use it as a dumbbell for dumbbell rows and a few other exercises for a home workout so please bear that in mind (especially if you are carrying it to go somewhere as this is NOT fitting in a bag). I haven’t used the microphone feature YET but I do plan on doing so soon.

I bought this speaker for listen when it's raining, amazing !

I bought this device about 3 weeks about and all friends are impressed from sound and battery durability. Best device even brought to the beach. Only don’t download Fiestable program. It crashed few times with my Android phone and I deleted it.

I was going to buy the JBL 3 none in stock. This one’s a 100 less and sounds comparable to the JBL.

So stoked on this speaker. It bangs hard everywhere I go . It fits between my head rest and rear window of my trucks cab . Wedges right there. Ear level. Blasting down the freeway. Battery lasts 30 hrs. Loud enough to cover the bowl jam at the skatepark… ish . Guitar /hi/z input too! Now we’re cookin with fire!!!

I wanted a new Bluetooth product to blast tunes from my phone through my garage while I’m working on whatever! This Sony does the trick. My 8,000 sqft garage Rocks with my favorite tunes and that bass is kickin it.

The sound is magical , warm and expressive as If you were in the studio. I compare it with JBL, Harman Kardon, Tribit, Bose....for two months

This speaker is heavy, solid and has a nice tone sound to it. The usb playback works well. The rest you really need the Sony music app. This enables you to listen via app integration to radio, audible, YouTube etc. Bluetooth to phone is good, but to things like using it as a soundbar, haven't managed to Bluetooth it for more than a few seconds to TV. This lets the product down. If it could be rectified with a software update will would get 5 stars. It might also be manufacturing company TV issue my other speaker doesn't stay connected either. Echos manage it extremely well!!

I bought this a month ago, which is precisely what I expected. I had bought one from LG but was unhappy about the output and had to ask for a refund

I had a JBL Boombox. Within two years, it stopped working by shutting down every ten minutes. I like to fall asleep listening to music. Getting up every ten minutes to tun the JBL became a pain. I already had a Bluetooth Sony-- a small speaker attached to my computer. I needed a wider bandwidth to reproduce the full spectrum of classical music, including the bass. I picked Sony. I have been using this speaker for six months now. It works beautifully, the Bluetooth pairs with my computer automatically, and even more important, the music is fantastic! The fidelity is excellent! The price is right.

The only thing that I would want with this is a shoulder strap.

I have had this speaker for a few weeks now and am very pleased with it. It is easily portable and has great sound for the price. The Mega Base is superb.

This produckt iş wonderfull. I bought today and I am very happy ....

Bought for my husband! He just loved it ! Best things ever I bought ! It’s looks so smart!

Had for a week now, very loud, very clear and lots of bass. Battery life is amazing. Just buy one...you won't be disappointed.

I’ve had this speaker for a few days and it’s honestly the best looking,Sounding and large portable speaker i’ve ever seen! Amazing product and i hope Sony come up with more revolutionary sounding speakers

I like the fact that portable! I can use it for a long time!

Just bought this baby and I am loving it. The sound quality is another level.

Really love it, I recommand this speaker. The quality of the sound is great

Many "professional reviewers" have given so-so reviews of the XG500, so I almost didn't buy it, but my favorite Bluetooth speaker is the SRS-XB43 - and I just couldn't imagine that the XG500 would really disappoint. So after checking if the XG500 supported the stereo-pair function (it does!) I splurged and bought 2 of them! These speakers are made for bass lovers, the sound is so big and rich with Mega-amounts of bass, voices and other instruments are represented very well, even while the bass thumps. A very pleasant surprise is how easy these speakers are to listen too even at VERY high volumes. Sony tuned the highs to be smooth instead of brassy, that tuning can make the highs sound a little soft at low volumes, but app based adjustments for Bass, Mids, and Treble can be used to fine tune the sound, these adjustments makes noticeable changes to the sound but don't change the overall character of the sound. I am a certified speaker lover and I have several sets of Sony Bluetooth speakers, the XG500 takes all of the goodness of the SRS-XB43 and takes it to party level. It's a fun loud speaker that will put a smile on your face no matter what kind of music you prefer. The XG500 has played every genre of music that I have tried very well, including of course Dance and EDM, but also Rock, Smooth Jazz, Broadway/Show tunes, Country, Pop, R&B and even Bass heavy Rap and Hip Hop. Like the SRS-XB43, the XG500 is REALLY good at older R&B, Pop, and Rock from the early 80's and 90's. It makes you want to hear all your old favorites again! To say I'm happy with my purchase is an understatement, I love these speakers and I'm glad i followed my gut.

Very impressed by this portable speaker, connected to my phone straight away, the sound is extremely powerful but quiet if it needs to be, like the customisable light feature as well. Definitely would recommend.
