Meets expectations for a box of this size and price. Recommended!

I have been able to test this small bluetooth speaker for a week now. Here you will find my findings so far. The first thing I noticed was the size of the speaker when I took it out of the package. So small! That immediately tempered my expectations about the capabilities of the speaker. It looks like a small black cylinder about 9 cm high and 7 cm in diameter. What immediately stands out is the handy carrying strap, with which you can hang the speaker on your bag or belt, for example. Although I would not recommend your belt because it is actually just too big for that. At the bottom of the speaker are four openings that should amplify the bass. On top of the speaker is a metal grill to protect it against falls. Furthermore, the speaker is equipped with five buttons: power button, bluetooth button and indicator, a play/pause button and two buttons for the volume. Nice and basic, easy to find and with good response. What stands out when the speaker is switched on for the first time is the connection with, for example, your phone. With the Fast Pair technology from Sony, this is done in no time and you can immediately enjoy the excellent sound reproduction. And it didn't disappoint me! What a good sound comes out of this little powerhouse, really beyond expectations. I have to say that for people like me, who like music with a lot of bass, this is disappointing. So if you like such music, I advise you to look for a somewhat larger speaker. But for use on the beach, for example, at a barbeque on your terrace or even as a PC speaker, this speaker is an excellent choice!

Been testing the Sony wireless speaker SRS-XB13 for the review club for a week.
When unpacking, a nice small speaker comes out of the box (height 9.5 cm and diameter 7.6 cm). You wonder if that can produce a good sound However, I was pleasantly surprised by the sound it produces, this is mainly due to the extra bass I think.
It has a detachable strap so you can hang it on something. Indoors it gives a nice surround sound in the room, I have not tested it outdoors yet.
Thanks to the Fast Pair technology, it was quickly connected to my Samsung smartphone via bluetooth. it is also very easy to use with a few buttons. Volume can be adjusted via speaker as well as telephone. For me personally, the volume is loud enough, but I can imagine that you would want a slightly louder volume in a larger room. The battery life is 16 hours which works fine for me. It is waterproof and dustproof, but I haven't had it long enough to give an opinion on this. Hands-free calling is also possible What is a minus is the cord that comes with it for charging via USB. It is very short and I use the charging cable of my Samsung phone.
So far I am very satisfied with this nice speaker.
