Customer Ratings & Reviews

This isn’t your standard travel, outdoor, or reckless Bluetooth speaker. However, for mobility around the house or taking to similar settings (you’ll have to change the WiFi setting), it’s amazing. Very few speakers out there that use air play, and that alone is enough to buy Sonos. Battery is solid, but Sonos app, software and updates need a lot of work.

It's not often that a product surprises me but the Sonos Roam is such a product. I unpacked it and hit the power switch. It immediately discovered my Sonos network, and a notification popped up on my phone asking if I wanted to add the Roam to my network. A couple taps later and it was ready to go. Couldn't have been easier to set up, took less than 2 minutes. It was 51% charged out of the box. I plugged it in and an hour later it was fully charged. One last comment. The Roam is smaller than a bottle of water, yet somehow they get excellent sound quality out if it. Pros: Easy setup Great sound Great battery life.

The sonos roam is just what ive been waiting for. The sound is amazing for a small speaker. Excellent for traveling and i love that it's not only bluetooth but also wifi. Worth the price, considering buying a second one!

Sonos has created quality speakers for home setups, but didn't dive into the portable speaker marketplace until now. Although they introduced the Sonos Move, it didn't compete with other truly portable speakers because of its size, weight, and price. The Sonos Roam has perfectly executed both portability and sound quality, all while integrating seamless functionality. Switching music from one speaker to another is quick and effortless, and grouping multiple speakers for synchronized play is equally seamless. The sleek design, IP67 rating, smart assistant integration, and user-friendly controls are just cherries on top of an already sweet product. This should definitely be a heavy consideration when looking for your next perfect speaker.

Excellent sound from such a small device. Turning it on / off seems to be tricky esp. as they don't tell you how. Bluetooth connectivity & wifi connectivity in the beginning took forever. Once set up, it works very well.

The Sonos roam gets so much right. The sound is balanced with a decent amount of bass. The vocals are crisp and the volume is perfect for a small area, even outdoors. The build quality is excellent and the battery life is more than enough. The one issue i have is the interface, it can be tricky switching from Wifi to bluetooth mode. I wish there was a dedicated button for this, additionally the on off button would benefit from a similar design change. Outside of that, i feel the size and performance are fantastic. This slips into my backpack and i forget its there. Solid purchase

Love my Roam, I can take anywhere. Light weight. Worth every dollar great quality great sound.

Been working well for 2 years since the purchase was made. Sound quality works amazing. You can make it vertical or horizontal depending on how you want it to work. Portable makes it even better for the experience

I received this for Christmas. I didn't use it much until I moved into a studio apartment, and I was blown away by how wonderful it sounds! I might need to get a SONOS sound system!

Nice speaker for the size. I have my house full of sonos speakers so getting this was a must. I did expect better sound because they make the best smart speakers. It will travel good and is waterproof so I will get plenty of use with it. I do think its a bit overpriced. Hopefully they build on this model and make improvements to the sound.

We have a Sonos sound bar and the sound quality is still excellent! The battery life lasts all day. The app is pretty simple and you can connect it right to spotify, iheartradio and prime music accounts. Once one is playing you can close the app on your phone and play/pause right from the Roam. If you have other Sonos devices you can sync and play though all or switch seamlessly. The only issues have been listening to music stored locally on my phone is kind of clunky, the app will load a playlist but doesn't shuffle very well and playing through the samsing music app causes it to only play one song then stops. The other issue is if you have a high quality .flac file, such as from bandcamp, it may be unable to play it, which is surprising.

Sonos sound quality is great. I find the battery doesn’t last long so I have you keep it plugged in. I am worried that this will ruin the battery. Also haven’t gotten the Google/Alexa to work yet

Works great easy set up sounds excellent light weight

First Best Buy review on the Sonos Roam speaker. This has been highly anticipated over the past month. After going through the many reviews from 3rd parties who have gotten their hands on the speaker, it is expected to blow all other speakers of this size out of the water. A feature I'm looking forward to the most is the ability to operate on your network, then instantly transfer to bluetooth when you leave the network area. Brilliant! Cannot wait to get my hands on the speaker today! Of course two of them were ordered to pair up in stereo mode. Check out online reviews and order yours right away!

I use these in my 2 bathrooms and they are surprisingly loud for how small they are. Sound quality is good but its definitely a step down from any other sonos speakers... but then again the price reflects that so i am happy with my purchase, no other sonos speakers can fit in my bathroom conveniently so these complete my setup of a speaker in every room.

I have 2 of these as my rear speakers, teamed up with a sound bar and they complete the surround sound I wanted. These guys produce good sound. Def worth the purchase. I keep them permanently plugged in because the battery doesn’t last more than a day

I also have the Sonos Arc and Subwoofer. The products all work great together but the other 2 sound much better. Also The sound is amazing especially when Dolby Atmos is included but without that the sound can be very inconsistent

The stereo pair sound good for such small speakers. Connection to wireless sometimes spotty, although that may be fault of wireless network more than speakers. On wirpeless, batteries wore down faster than materials said.

The best use case is for current Sonos owners who want a small speaker to move around the house with. It sounds good next to other speakers and when you balance the volume you can sort of get a stereo effect if you have rooms with other speakers present. I use this mostly in my bedroom and office where each have a single One. This adds to the sound in those rooms. I also use it in the shower, which has made the ritual of showering much more enjoyable and relaxing. Out of home, I use headphones, and it's winter where I am, so I haven't had any outdoor gatherings to "DJ", so not sure about the out-of-home / social experience of using this yet. I do not recommend this if you do not already have, or plan to have additional Sonos speakers at home. the value prop and performance is weak and overpriced as a single speaker. Pros: - size and weight, very portable. lighter and smaller than my JBL - Integration w/ my existing Sonos system - sound quality is pretty good all things considered. it sounds clear and crisp, and the fact that it is weak in the low end isn't bothersome. as long as your expectations are in the right place, you won't be disappointed by how it sounds overall. Cons: Controls, pairing, overall usability, and functionality - Many times activating this speaker with music already playing will crash the system. For example, I have a One playing music, I hold the play button on the Roam and sometimes it works, but other times, it kills all the music and unlinks the other speakers that may be playing at the same time. Then I have to get into the app, reselect the music, and wait for it to pick up. its just not as smooth as the wired speakers. - BATTERY LIFE IS THE PITS. making it not a good speaker to take out on a trip. Bluetooth battery MIGHT be better, but I haven't been able to quantify the difference between the two - wouldn't take it to the beach, the pool, the patio, etc. it's not loud enough by itself and I'd only get 1-2 hours on the battery. - volume when paired with other speakers in home: when you adjust the volume on the speaker, it adjusts for each speaker that is playing. not a bad thing, but there are many times where the other speakers are fine and just this one needs to be adjusted. You have to go into the app to adjust this. - takes too long to get up and running. With the JBL's you play something on your phone, turn on the speaker and it pairs and plays almost immediately. with this, I have to go through MANY more steps AFTER picking music because of fumbling with the Sonos app in addition to fumbling with Sonos/Apple - So far I have been unsuccessful with getting the voice controls to work. one day I may figure this out.

One of the nos compact speakers and easy to use and best clean sound
