Sony's pocket rocket with the bass badge
The XB100 packs Sony's Extra Bass philosophy into the palm class: a compact cylinder whose passive-radiator low end genuinely thumps beyond its size, a Sound Diffusion Processor spreading music wider than the little body suggests, 16 hours of battery, and full IP67 waterproof-dustproof sealing with a strap for hanging duty. It is the branded compact that punches up.
