Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the Beam (Gen 2)'s unmatched sound quality, ease of use, and convenient size. Many find the setup process to be super easy and enjoy the great bass and slim design. However, some customers have reported connectivity issues, while others feel the volume could be improved and that the Dolby Atmos feature may not perform as expected. A few customers also mentioned the product being pricey.

    We intended to buy a simple bluetooth capable soundbar to use in a limited need workout room and we unfortunately let the Best Buy salesperson talk us into the Sonos Beam for its various features and "improved" online capabilities. Unfortunately, the features are virtually unusable as this device is seemingly dependent on very high capacity wifi to work with apps on the TV - despite being connected to HDMI arc. While the TV signal works fine and picture quality/playability is fine over 5g, the Sonos wifi dependency makes little sense. However, searching for troubleshooting issues, the other online complaints appear to point to this reality. Since its in our basement with limited wifi (despite the picture signal being fine and various devices in play to extend/boost our signal) there are numerous playability issues and the hardware itself needs to be frequently reset and reconnected to the HDMI ARC connector. Sound quality seems fine when it does work, but the frequent need to monitor, connect, reconnect and still not be able to use it with certain apps (Prime and Netflix in particular). It's a disappointing waste of money and space.
