This holiday season, if you’re looking for a budget-friendly gift that punches above its weight, the Sony SRS-XB100 Bluetooth speaker is now $38 (down from $59.99)—its lowest price ever according to price trackers. Measuring 3 by 3.8 inches and weighing just 9.7 ounces, this speaker is compact enough to fit in a stocking or toss in a bag. Plus, it comes in four color options including black, gray, orange, and blue, and features a removable lanyard for added portability (makes it easy to attach to your bag or carry wherever you go).
The SRS-XB100 packs a two-watt driver and a passive bass radiator that work together to deliver mono audio with a frequency range of 100Hz to 15kHz—pretty impressive for such a small speaker. You’ll find all the necessary controls, including a multifunction button (for playback, track navigation, and call management), a power button, volume controls, and a Bluetooth pairing button neatly placed around the base of the speaker. The SRS-XB100 connects via Bluetooth 5.3 and works with AAC and SBC codecs. Additionally, if you’re an Android user, you’ll appreciate the Google Fast Pair feature, which makes setup quick and effortless on compatible devices—a handy perk highlighted in this PCMag review.
For such a small speaker, the SRS-XB100 delivers surprisingly powerful sound with a solid amount of thump. That said, it’s not designed for deep bass and can’t quite compete with larger, pricier options. Still, for its size, it’s more than enough to fill a room or keep the vibe going outdoors.
Speaking of outdoors, the SRS-XB100 boasts a durable build with an IP67 rating, meaning you can dunk it underwater, roll it around on the beach, or even give it a quick rinse. And with a battery life of up to 16 hours (according to the manufacturer), you won’t have to constantly worry about recharging during your adventures.
