As summer approaches, Sony’s SRS-XB100 portable speaker seems to be an ideal companion for outdoor activities. Its compact design and weatherproof construction make it suitable for day-long outings, and the 16-hour battery life eliminates concerns about running out of power.
Regarding sound quality, Sony has made bold claims for the SRS-XB100. While it may not match the rich, full sound of the larger and more premium Sonos Move, it offers a more affordable alternative. Comparisons to the Sonos Roam, a smaller and lightweight model designed for portability, are more apt. However, the Roam’s higher price and average 10-hour battery life make the SRS-XB100 a strong contender, especially considering its weatherproof build and extended battery life.
