Design
Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by the product's chassis or, in simpler terms, the space the product occupies.
A speaker driver is an individual transducer that converts electrical energy to sound waves. More drivers may result in better sound quality.
There is a control panel on the device body, so you can easily access the volume control or remote without having to interact with a cable or another device it's connected to.
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device. Bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.
Devices with neodymium magnets are lighter and more powerful than those which use ferrite magnets. They also have more bass and clear high notes.
The device comes with its own special case or pouch, which is useful for safe transportation.
You can operate the device easily, by pressing the screen with your fingers.
The device is protected with extra seals to prevent failures caused by dust, raindrops, and water splashes.
The device is dustproof and water-resistant. Water-resistant devices can resist the penetration of water, such as powerful water jets, but not being submerged into water.
Sound quality
Devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better experience.
Devices with a subwoofer have a higher quality, deeper bass.
The highest frequency at which device produces audio. The higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble.
The lowest frequency at which the device produces audio. The lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass.
Audio output power is based on the number of speakers and their power in watts. High audio output power results in loud, clear sounds.
A passive radiator is a type of driver (speaker) that doesn't have a voice coil and a magnet. The sound vibrations produced by a passive radiator depend on its mass and the size of its enclosure. It is usually used in combination with a woofer to produce deep bass tones.
More microphones result in better sound quality and enable the device to filter out background noise.
These microphones are designed to filter out background noise from the desired sound. Especially useful in noisy environments.

After trying the XB33, I gotta admit that I was quite surprised. I was used to see mediocre speakers coming from Sony but this one felt different. To begin with, sound was pretty enjoyable but it has its flaws. Highs were quite bad and didn't have so much detail, mids were quite muddy and there was so much bass. The thing is that after using the EQ, I managed to improve the sound of the speaker but it's not the best speaker I heard anyhow. It was enjoyable but not as I would like. Something I liked a lot was that the sound is stereo and that it uses a better audio codec which provided a cleaner sound overall. In terms of the design, I didn't liked it. I found it too simple and its lights didn't help at all. I prefer a design like the XB23 or the Flip 6 (which has a pretty beautiful design tbh). Battery life was great, achieving good numbers after my testing. Price in the other hand was not that great because I found a contender which basically delivers everything I was looking for and it's the Flip 6. It's not only much cheaper but it is also much more comparable to this speaker than the Charge 5. I found the Flip's sound to be richer, with more detail and punch than the Sony's. Because of the Flip 6 existence, I ended up switching to JBL's instead. Not a bad speaker but I found a better choice out there. (Also Anker Motion+ is a good option too).
