Customer Ratings & Reviews

Picked up the Move 2 when it was on sale. Typical Sonos build quality and excellent sound. Very good volume levels and fair amount of base for its size. Connectivity, however, is spotty on WiFi - music would simply stop. Had to connect via Bluetooth.

Really impressed with this speaker. I picked this up to add to my Sonos ecosystem and the system works awesome! It is not the cheapest, but the sound out of this speaker is great. The touch controls are all very responsive, and the sliding volume is super slick. We've activated the talk to function and with a quick "hey sonos" we are listening to music from our favorite streaming stations. It's connected to our Alexa system too which makes life easy. If you are looking for a semi transportable speaker with amazing full range sound, check out the Move 2!

The speaker puts out very good sound, the build quality is great. The Sonos app and its stability as well as the voice recognition need work however.

This speaker is amazing, no doubt. But it is not worth $500 unless you are already neck deep in the Sonos ecosystem (like me). One will easily fill up a room, I can't imagine what stereo pairing sounds like. Speaking of, I've heard that you can't unpair a stereo pai unless you have Wi-Fi, so keep that in mind. I haven't actually ran the battery on this yet, but I believe it is 24hrs. It's pretty heavy so I can't imagine travelling to a lot of places with this. Wait for a sale imo.

I really like this portable speaker. Has great sound, and blends in with our decor. This item was hard to setup-due to the factory settings—no lights or sound - and poor directions—we called customer service and they helped to reset the device - worked fine after that.

Great sound and excellent quality! A very expensive Bluetooth speaker though, Doesn't really connect well, or play nice with all the other Sonos speakers/systems. Works best as a standalone, portable speaker. Connects every time, sounds great, sometimes there are static or scratchy or crackly sounds when played at higher volumes. Not what I would expect from a $400+ speaker.

From the sound performance perspective, the Move 2's deliver clean, undistorted, full-range sound. Sadly, they suffer from the same software ills that plague all Sonos products. I am used to dealing with Sonos quirks so am probably more forgiving than others. But be forewarned, it takes patience and technical knowledge to keep these speakers working, especially if one moves them often. They struggle with reliable wifi discovery and reestablishing network connectivity. If one is looking mainly for blue-tooth portability (ie not wifi network connectivity), there are less-expensive alternatives available. For those wanting the flexibility offered by a smart wifi portable speaker around the house, the feature set this speaker offers would fit the bill. But the software implementation falls short when it comes to reliable performance. In a nutshell, Sonos builds a grade A speaker but their software rates a C for reliability and end-user ease-of-use. This is especially surprising for a company that pioneered the field of smart speakers. One would have expected them to set a high bar for the competition to aspire to and justify their price premium (eg as Apple does with their products). I cannot say they have.

Im surprised at the quality and the amount of sound that comes out of this fairly small speaker. I bought the roam along with the move to be able to listen to the same music as i bounce in and out of the house and they sync very well. I didn’t give it 5 stars because of the app and even though there is a setting to apply “auto connect” it doesn’t. Problem with the app is do listen to multiple speakers at once you have to use the sknos app that yiu have connected to your apple music or spotify. Seems like an unnecessary requirement except they eant to mine your musical data. Price is a little steep for what you’re getting, wait for a sale.

The move 2 is one of the best sounding portable speakers available. Build quality, battery life and controls are all top notch. What keeps it from being 5 stars are some software bugs that occasionally create playback problems over WiFi (easily fixed by a quick reboot). Also you can’t check the battery life unless it’s on WiFi which is very strange.

I have to say this speaker sounds great and integates well with the sonos multiroom system. It is terribly expensive so I bought an ioen item at a discount. Also beware you cannot pair it with any sonos sub, in case you may have considered that as a setup.

the portability is convenient and sounds pretty good, but there are some connectivity issues. after it goes into sleep mode the only way I can get it to show up or connect is to hold down the power button long enough to do a power reset. If Sonos ever fixes this bug I will add another star, and recommend it here.

I absolutely love the Sonos Move! The sound quality is amazing! Very easy to connect to your Bluetooth and portable, so you can bring with you to the backyard, the pool, the beach!

Good speakers but not as loud as I expected. For $600 you can buy a full audio system.

I really liked how the speaker sounded and how it could charge on its base. But comparing it to some other speakers I already own, these really didn’t blow me away. And those were ~$100

The Sonos app will the bane of my existence. When it works, it works… everything installs easily… etc… But when the app doesn’t want to work. Oh boy… I am a tech guy myself… and never experienced an app so inconsistent and cumbersome before. This would be a 5 star speaker if Sonos listened to their customers and fixed the app. Because the speaker itself is amazing. Solid well rounded sound, with a notable improvement over the first move.

Sounds good and enjoy the functionality that allows you to use an old amp/stereo system and combine with current streaming platforms. Price seems high for comparison to other quality brand Bluetooth speakers (that won’t connect to older stereos).

The sound is not balaned at max volume. It looses nass. But 75% and lower its probably the best sounding portable speaker out there. Great battery life.

outstanding sound quality, futuristic design. most likely the ideal speaker model for the majority if you want a compact speaker with impressive sound quality. one problem for me is that the connection to the application is sometimes not smooth, and the line out mode is very inconvenient!

Used it as a replacement for my dying Bose Soundlink Pro. Its probably a little too nice to use at the golf course. I wish there was a silicone case you can put it in to keep damage to a minimum. Battery life was great. The charging ring is the only major thing I find wrong. The pins are hollow, which makes them susceptible to corrosion in humid or salty environments. A friend has one and told me about his issue. 4 stars overall. 5 stars if you want the loudest speaker on the course ;-)!

Pros: Great sound and portable. Cons: A tad bit heavy and I’ve been getting some crackling sound when playing music. Overall: great sound!
