Review on Sony SRS-XB43 Extra Bass Wireless Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Blue (Renewed) by Hoon Alvin ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Im amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

When it came time to make a purchase, I was debating between the JBL Extreme 3 and the Sony XB43. Extreme 2 was the backup option; however, it is no longer sold in the limited number of places that still carry it, and the pricing has become unsatisfactory. I can't stress enough how important it is for you to visit a large store and give careful consideration to both of your available choices before making a purchase. This will prevent you from later kicking your feet in reviews and pulling out your hair over careless financial decisions. I analyzed the differences in sound quality across genres and songs in my collection. In my perspective, Sony did a better job; the sound is warmer and fuller than that of the other brand, the volume is appropriate for use in an apartment, and even the bass is more enjoyable. However I have to acknowledge that JBL is also a good brand; it is significantly louder in terms of the highest possible sound level; it produces a more natural sound outside (exactly three of my friends own JBL); and the bass thumps like crazy. All of the variations in the choice were determined by the price. Sony was able to acquire the XB33 at a price that was competitive with the competition; however, the difference of 5,000–6,000 rubles with the dzhibielka does not justify the premium price. Everyone who comes to visit enjoys the backlight, and shaking when the light is off is a lot of fun)) You need to have an understanding of the capabilities of the item in addition to where it fits in the market, which is something that the commentators below have already pointed out. There are, without a doubt, speakers and speaker systems available that are significantly superior in terms of sound quality, the amount of power produced by the acoustic palette, and also the price.

Pros
  • Sound quality is great for a speaker at this price point. At home in the apartment, it plays at a volume of one hundred percent, but outside in the natural environment, the design elements cause it to play at a lower volume (front-facing speakers). When the light is turned down low, the illumination of the case takes on a peculiar appearance; under the application settings, you have the option of synchronizing the flickering with the beat of the song.
Cons
  • There aren't any glaring problems, and while everyone has their own preferences, I feel that my expectations were reasonable.
