Update: I am still just blown away .. .HOW did a company I already trusted (and I dont say that lightly or often) make my favorite speaker the XSound Surf ... better? ... HOW? ... I saw a deal on a used-like New one for $19+ tax ... I had to get it and it IS USB C and does sound identical to the original (other than tape on the box ... and i admit the seller was Tribit's parent company too) ... It basically looks brand new ... I am so happy about Tribit speakers, I admit it ... for "the right price" .. I am keeping an eye on the Tribit Max Sound Plus ... OH NOT TO REPLACE any of the ones i have ... just to add ANOTHER Tribit speaker to my collection.Thanks for making such great products AND having great support... even trying to help me in the past when i had issues with tribit speaker from a true (not related to Tribit in any way) third party seller.---------------------------------------To be fair I was going to wait to write this review. The thinking was something really impresses me at first when it’s right out of the box, but then becomes “meh… I like it but it’s just ok” after some time using it. Before I begin, I will not bore people with the list of bluetooth devices I have but just to note, I do have some Tribit headphones, as well as the following bluetooth speakers- Oontz Angle 3 Ultra (that matters … I think as you go up in the Oontz lineup they sound a bit better than the last)- 2 Tribit XSound Surfs- LFS – LFS 180 – my first BT speaker- Braven BRV-1and a DOSS Soundbox TouchI DO WANT to note that this review is on the apparent Upgraded version of the XSound Surf. I think it was youtuber Oluv Gadgets that said the originals didn’t sound as good to him but then he tried the upgraded model and it sounded a bit better. Which model one gets maybe key hereI am NOT a fan of “OMG this is the best … there is nothing wrong with this product” reviews but .. to be honest other than a “things to note” item or two maybe … I have NOTHING bad to say about this speaker.Sound Quality, Build Quality, just … everything I can think of, I love. Basically one of my favorite speakers has been the Tribit XSound Surf (this speaker’s “little brother” I suppose). If someone said “OK you love the XSound Surf but be critical … what would you like to make it better?” … I would sayA) longer battery life .. the Surf is ADVERTISED at 10HR max (the sound quality you get makes that totally acceptable to me… the Surf sounds GREAT) … AND B) without harming the great sound … maybe a little more soundstage or a “wider” sound. … WELL … that is what I am hearing with the GO. I DO ADMIT I have had this for less than a week so I really cant comment on the battery life other than “IT DOES last longer than the Surf” … just to be fair. But somehow they made a great sounding speaker sound better.Sound is right where I like it … there is so much punch in the bass, but it’s a CLEAN bass .. it doesn’t bleed into anything in my view. Also while you may not expect it looking at the “small package” of this speaker, to get a “sub-woofer” like sound out of it, but you do. Everything is right where I like it. It’s a “U” or “V” shaped sound but its sounds good and not forced in my view.“Things to Note”: Here I have to watch how I say this … this maybe as close to what some consider a “con” as you will get but I cant bring myself to say these are Cons.- While … almost all the speakers I have are like this and I do know “360 sound” speakers exist (Tribit even has some I believe) … the sound is not as “perfect” if you are not right in front of the speaker. Meaning behind it or on the side, you may really get the great sound but it’s not the best sound compared to “head one, speaker facing you”. Again this is NOT just an issue with the XSound GO.- Late at night I like listening Smooth Jazz, and relaxing music at lower volumes. With the Go and it’s lowest setting it is quiet (what I want) but sometimes the thump of that “subwoofer” type sound is still there … it drowns out the rest of the audio. One “click” up in volume and the issue is almost solved completely. While this sounds like a “Con”… this type of tuning makes me ALSO LOVE the speaker.BASICALLY what I mean is that at specific times in my use-case … It’s not the best at it’s lowest volume and that boomy sub-woofer like sound on those genres … OTHER TIMES this exact tuning at any other time of day (even the same genres) MAKES THIS MY FAVORITE sounding speaker.Comparisons to other speakers- The LFS 180 speaker has the issue of even at it’s lowest volume AND EVERYTIME you turn it on, it’s REALLY LOUD, but worse … it has a “Bluetooth buzz or hum” to it. It has great sound, but those issues make me not want to use it as much as I normally would. The Go is better than this speaker… the LFS sounds great but those two issues hold it back.- Tribit XSound Surf – Like I said this speaker maybe the “Little brother” of the XSound Surf. Everything is basically the same but I feel the GO (again this is the Upgraded “GO”) sounds a little more “full” and open to me. The battery life at least being advertised as a bit more than the Surf is a plus too. Not counting wanting more battery life, I think that the Surf MAY have been my former #1 favorite just on sound alone.- Oontz Angle 3 Ultra – without going into too much of a description the Ultra (2nd gen I think I have) sounds decent but it can sound boomy at times. Remember when I said this GO has “clean bass” well … I don’t want to go overboard as headphone, speaker, earbud wise I have heard FAR WORSE … the bass on the ultra bleeds into the mids sometimes … DON'T GET ME WRONG, I still REALLY love and recommend the ultra, but it doesn’t sound as “crisp” in the mids and highs as it could and … really how this XSound Go sounds. I know “muddy” and while I may have just described it, the Ultra is “not that “ bad but it is noticeable to me. I just want to be fair (pro and con sound wise) to Oontz there. Also I can not speak for “lower” Oontz models.- DOSS Soundbox TouchWhile the Soundbox Touch has bass, don’t get me wrong and late at night at low volumes it DOESN’T have that extra thump the XSound Go has (solving one of my “things to note” issues) … at higher volumes you 100% here the bass but many would consider the Soundbox Touch lacking in the bass.. especially self described “bass heads” … I suppose it depends on the sound you are looking for, but the Go 100% HAS a thump in the bass, the Soundbox doesn’t.- The Braven I have issues the comparison at the time of me typing this. The Braven has a good balance sound (I’d say cleaner and better than the Oontz Angle 3 Ultra) but its maybe a similar sound to the XSound GO here or XSound Surf with the bass pulled back a little … a thump but not as impactful as the Go’s or Surf’s .. TOTALLY not saying that is a bad thing either way.Conclusion:This … this Tribit XSound Surf MAY HAVE de-throned the Tribit XSound Surf as my #1 favorite bluetooth speaker that I own. I DO WANT to just bring up that while I have had issues with that LFS speaker I have. I RECOMMEND ALL of the ones mentioned here… Even with some having different pros and cons.XSound Go (Upgraded) wise … well that is a no-brainer if its my new favorite. OF COURSE I recommend it

I bought this speaker in 2021 and forgot to write a review until I was camping in 2025 and everyone around the campfire asked me what speaker this was. I couldn't remember but people wanted me to see if it was still available. The bass is fantastic and the volume levels are super loud if you want them to be. The treble to to bass ratio is really great and the water resistance has been great as well. I have never has a single problem with this speaker and am loving it 4 years later just as much as I did when I bought it. Fantastic speaker that I highly recommend.

It has really good sound quality and deep bass. I use this speaker in my office so I don’t usually blare it, but on occasion I have turned it up and it didn’t disappoint. It seems to be a great value for the price.

These speakers sound pretty well for the affordable price. Better than the Soundcore 2 in my opinion as those sound more "closed" and seem to have less bass than the XSound Go here. Did not get to test these in TWS as that would have gone over my budget. I do wish that 1 of these would have had stereo sound though.These do not have enough bass for my needs, as I tested them with portable Nintendo games. This did let me trust in Tribit as a brand though. Would recommend if budget is tight and you don't need much bass.

This speaker is amazing!! So I originally bought the DOSS speaker. And I was reading through the reviews and there were a lot of good reviews, but there were really negative reviews about the bass and I was getting into use it, but I really did not like how it sounded. It was very choppy and I just did not like it so I went searching and I found this speaker. It is amazing. It’s so easy. I got the color black and it’s perfect. It works so good and the volume is so loud.

This Tribit speaker not only sounds great, but is rugged. 5 years of beach use and plays like when it was new!
