So overall Sony’s new X series line up speakers is decent. The Sony XG500 is super portable, its got a great battery life, and it has a mic input which is a little rare for a speaker like this. The XP700 is a good large box speaker which delivers all around and then there’s the XP500 which is also good… but you’ll might want to use this speaker mostly while its plugged in. But nonetheless if you’re trying to decide between either of these speakers lets see which ones right for you.
So the new sony XP700 is a decent box speaker from sony. It sounds much better than its predecessor the Sony XB90, and it has a new more dynamic looking light feature that looks great either indoors or at night. Now over all the XP700 gets the job done… but naturally we’ve gotta see how it stakes up to its direct competitor the JBL Partybox 310.
So this is the Sony SRS-XP700… its a part of Sony’s new X series line up of speakers and it was released alongside the Sony XG500. Now just like the XG500, the XP700 is trying to differentiate itself from the competition by having a long lasting battery life. But it also has some very noteworthy upgrades from its predecessor like lets say the Sony XB90 like all new drivers, an additional tweeter, and an all new look.
The Sony XG500 is Sony’s direct response to the super popular JBL Boombox 2 and my personal favorite sounding and most used speaker the UE Hyperboom. And if you’re looking for a larger portable bluetooth speaker to take on the go with you from time to time then all three of these speakers are great options to consider. However, I feel all three of these speakers have their own stand out characteristics that depending on your needs will better suit you.
So this is the Sony SRS-XG500… its Sony’s direct response to the super popular JBL Boombox 2 and one of my favorite bluetooth speakers the UE Hyperboom. But its perfectly clear that Sony isn’t playing around here… they went in and added more bass, more ports and they even threw in a light feature for good measure. Overall the XG500 is pretty impressive… so lets check it out
So the Sonos Roam is here just in time for summer 2021… but like I mentioned in the full review with the Sonos roam you’re paying a premium cause of its smarts and not so much for its sound. Now like I said in the full review if you’re looking for a Bluetooth speaker and you’ve got a budget between $150 and $200 then I highly recommend that you just get the JBL Charge 5. With the Charge 5 you’re going to get much better sound and a much better battery life. But if you’re specifically looking for a small speaker like the Roam… then today we’re going to directly compere it to both the JBL Flip 5 and Sony XB23.
So this is the Sonos Roam, its Sonos’s latest ultra portable bluetooth speaker that’s either meant to be used at home or you can just throw it into your back pack and take it on the go with you to either to the beach or on a camping trip. Now even though the Roam is packed with a whole lot of smarts… for me its very hard to justify getting this thing and I can’t help but feel that its just been over hyped.
So now that the JBL Charge 5 is here Partyboost is finally complete. So today we’re going to break down JBL’s Partyboost speaker line up to see which one is right for you. We’ve got the JBL Clip 4, the Flip 5, the Charge 5, the Pulse 4, the Xtreme 3 and the JBL Boombox 2. Even though these are all just speakers depending on your needs you’ll be better off with one over the others. Besides sound… there’s also battery life, ports, portability, and extra little features to take into consideration.
