Battery life as promised and sound is very SONY. Loving it. Easy to carry along and listen to my favorite music on the go.

The sound quality, bass and clarity is way beyond what it looks like. Punches way above its weight and size. The built quality is robust too. Battery life on Bluetooth mode could have been better but it's decent to give you decent hours of runtime on Bluetooth mode more than enough a person needs before next charge.

So far good, nice battery backup, quick connectivity, great bass, should have added audio jack

Really great product, I appreciate how the connection is seamless and how the buttons are so responsive since am coming from Anker products.

One con will be if you plan to use the same for watching some casual movies the conversation is not the best, Of course if you are bass head then this is really great

Worth buying.. the bass is totally awasome. At a full volume the product sound doesn't feel distortion. Good battery but need fast charging .

Very nice speaker in budget.

The bass is really good with ult mode on.

Suitable for room.The sound clarity is also wonderful

Overall happy me🕺

Volume: Within a room its very loud

dont expect the same in outdoor

I’m genuinely surprised by the quality of this speaker feels very solid sound is great but sound is clear only till 70% volume so I would not say that this is true 30W speaker it’s fantastic if I consider it as 15w or 20w speaker and considering price of 8k it’s the best value speaker without missing any features

I received the product with connectivity issues. When I try to connect it to Alexa via Bluetooth, it sometimes fails to connect, even after troubleshooting.

Another major issue is that the product turns off automatically after some time. It has a standby feature that should keep it on for 15 minutes, but even after disabling this feature, the product still turns off almost immediately. This is disappointing, as I expected it to work properly.

I contacted Amazon customer support, but they advised me to contact the brand directly. Unfortunately, the brand’s service center is around 20 km away from my location, which is inconvenient.

I will update this review after contacting the brand and finding out whether the issue can be resolved. For now, my experience has been disappointing.

We were on the market for a bluetooth portable speaker for our 18 year old daughter as a birthday present. We normally gravitate to the JBL brand - which ARE, and still remain to be, great speakers. But, being the baby of the family and living with hand-me-down [you name it]s all her life, I knew she'd appreciate a speaker in a style that was totally her own -- not another one of mom and dad's (or big brother's) speakers. Fun and easy as that sounds, this meant stepping out of my comfort zone. (You know how it is: you like what you like!) So I REALLY did my homework by researching many different brands/styles/specs (Bose, Beats, etc.) of speakers in the (about $100-150) price range.

The number one thing our daughter was asking for was portability - hesitantly saying nothing bigger than her brother's JBL Charge 4, but I could tell smaller would be better. Bigger speakers may give better sound, but she wanted a "water bottle speaker" as they're called because they fit nicely in cup holders. So I began my search by comparing models to JBL's Flip 6 - the one I was originally going to purchase.

I came across this Sony ULT Field 1, which is a new model that Sony released just a few months ago. I was impressed by it's veratility. Built the same way as the Flip 6 (outward facing woofer and tweeter, side bass) it has many of the same features as the Flip 6 like an app with an equalizer so you can fine tune your music and 12 hours of battery life. But the Field 1 came with a few extra features that raised my eyebrow... A ULT bassboost button giving you an extra, little option: go with a deeper bass if you're dancin' the night away - or turn it off if you're, say, talking with friends around a campfire and save on battery life. (By the way, it sounds GREAT even with it off!) It also comes with a phyical pause button and voice feature - where you can answer the phone through the speaker, (like in your car). Although it IS bigger than the Flip 6 it is smaller than the JBL Charge 5 - the newer version of her brother's speaker.

As far as sound quality, several reviewers (YouTube) stated that the Field 1's sound quality falls BETWEEN JBL's Flip 6 and Charge 5 models. (I used my headphones to listen while they demonstrated the different speakers' sounds and, yes... uh-huh... I agree.) Again, ALL 3 speakers have very, VERY good sound quality - you really can't go wrong with any of them. We were looking at Sony's ULT Field 1 simply because we wanted to give our daughter something unique to our household - that fit her description of "bottle speaker" but measured up to my (ha!) standards of sound quality.

I also want to point out (on a petty note) that we DO LIKE the carrying cord - a feature I thought at first glance might be awkward. It can be removed if desired but lemme tell ya, it's QUITE handy! :D

So I added it to my cart, did that lil' 'hold-your-breath' pause thing we all do ...then tapped the 'ORDER' button.

It arrived today (very next day) and, wanting to surprise her [a month] early, went ahead and handed her the package. (Sigh...gone are the days of my elegant gift wrapping sessions.) The surprise alone tickled her - but when she opened it, her eyes grew WIDE! She genuinely LOVED it!! (May I be clear here: I couldve given her a cleaned up, secondhand, garage sale speaker and she, in her sweet-nature, would have "LOVED" that. Ha! Ha! It was a sweet treat to do this for her.) 😄🥲

I asked if the size was too big and she said it was very much OK!

Now, my picky ears are truly impressed by it's CLEAR sound - even turned ALL the way up, there's no "fuzziness" here! I had chosen the white color and it's very nice. It's not a sporty, bright white - just kind of a classy, muted off-white.

One thing I DO like over the JBL brand is that the buttons have little, lights by each one so they'll be more easily seen in the evenings. (Cool!😎) Connectivity was easy - or so I assume. She had it out if the box and connected to her iPhone faster than I could say "Wait; there's an app...". She was already downloading the app and was playing music as I sat at down at the table to look it all over. So I'm feeling pretty confident to say it's easy to set up.

As far as fitting in the cup holder, it does fit...kind of. It sits about 2½ inches down - snuggly enough to keep it securely upright while driving, but not all the way seated down inside it. Our car's cupholders (Ford Escape) have these little spring loaded, retractable, grabber things that prevent it from being seated all the way down inside. Bump it with your elbow and it'll go flying. That said, it still may fit in YOUR cupholders.

It definitely will fit the (Ford) truck's cupholders. Lol!

She loved the speaker so much though, it wasn't a deal breaker!

After all that - go figure! (RME) But, hey!...that just tells you how good this speaker is!!)

Overall, it is very much a sweet little speaker for its size and price point! (Way to go, Sony!) As they say in other Amazon reviews: "If you're on the fence give it a try - you will be pleasantly surprised."

(🤔Hmmm...Let's see...

MY birthday is in March...) 😄

I really like it; the size, sound quality, and bass are excellent. I bought it while it was on sale and have no regrets—I think it's better than JBL.

Muito bom... atendeu plenamente as minhas expectativas

Excelente Audio bajos profundos y el buton adicional da aún mejor bajo y sonido de agudos en equilibrio pila de larga duración práctica de llevar excelente bocina

I bought Tribit for 65$ first, thought higher price means higher quality, returned as it was a mess of all sounds, terrible. Then right after Amazon returned my guldens I bought Sony ULT Field 1. I am trying it third day in a row and i’m not happy at all. All these video reviews on tube and feedbacks on Amazon worth nothing. Why? Because you don’t know who has what experience, interests or anything else…age, income… So, ling story short- I have LG speaker PL7 and JBL C5 and Sony F1 is falls short compared to previous two. Ugly, very ugly bass, especially when you press ULT button in the middle of the song it spews on you weird sound, very disturbing and disappointing….Sometimes, when I see stuff like these, dashboard of Camry and hull design of Nissan Centra… I am thinking this these guys must have taken something strong…. Do not waste your money for ULT field 1, Tribits and rest …. Go for clear, soft almost perfect voice of PL7-you won’t be regret! Last advice- test first, then buy !
