Customers are saying
Customers admire the Roam Smart Portable Speaker's amazing sound quality, portability, and surprisingly big sound for its small size. Many appreciate its ease of setup and Bluetooth connectivity, along with its water resistance for use in various settings. However, some users point to inconsistent battery life and occasionally low volume as drawbacks. A few also mention challenges with charging and the power button.

Bricked after constant known charging issues
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Repeatedly stopped charging and needed to be reset to work. Now seems bricked and Sonos's solution is to buy an overpriced charger from them since it's a known issue with seemingly every charger I already own. If it only works with one special charger, they need to include it with the purchase.

An Awesome Speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This little thing is awesome! I bought 2 for my outdoor deck (16 x 32). Its surprisingly loud and the base is perfect. Its cool to be able pick up the speakers and move them from room to room due to the internal battery.

Great bang for the buck
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great bang for the buck. Love that it integrates with my existing Sonos system. Not as strong as my Sonos Ones, but then again it's not supposed to. Easily one of the best portable speakers out there at this price range.

Amazing!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I freaking love this thing. I linked it up with a standard wireless charger and it works flawlessly. We use it on the go and even in the shower lol. Best thing of all, it syncs seamlessly with our other Sonos products.

Very Happy. Works like it's Supposed to
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Product. Understand how it automatically turns on/off when connected to power/wireless charge/etc. Once you know that it is great; otherwise you could show up to needing it and it's dead.

Sounds good and tiny
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wife bought this because of its size and loves our other Sonos speakers. It is small but better than other brands the same size. Bass suffers slightly but is not “tinty” sounding.

Dazed and Confused
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have many SONOS products in my home and my overall satisfaction with Sonos is very high. The Sonos Roam made that opinion fall considerably. The Roam took forever to charge with the supplied USB cable. You can buy as an accessory plug to connect the USB to a wall socket for an extra 20$ or a wireless charger for 50$. Really Sonos, your a high end experience company and no connection to wall power to charge in a reasonable amount of time? Also the roam only works with S2 app so if you have an existing SONOS S1 environment the Roam wont work. Not a big deal if you convert all your existing environment to S2 but if you have lots of SONOS devices that wont work on S1 it is a disaster. The coexistence of S1 and S2 was glitchy in my experience. The other issue I found was anytime I went form one home to another like a friends the Roam got confused. It keep searching for the wi-fi connection that it had a password for and it seemed to override the bluetooth connection. The product really need a pocket instruction manual. It was suppose to make different sounds during setup which it never did. There were lots of simple user issues that I had to call support on which I shouldn't of had to do if the on-line documentation had a simple cheat sheet. Overall the speaker sound was great but due to all of the other user experience stuff I decided to return the product as my frustration with operation grew.

Nice little speaker
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ordered 2 of these to add to my living room system, but they only connect for music. They sounded great and would be perfect for a portable speaker. I definitely recommend.

The true portable Sonos.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The true portable Sonos speaker. The move has more power but isn’t something that is easy to take with you. If you are looking for a Sonos speaker you want to be able to use on the go, this is it.

Great sound, versatile speaker - for Sonos users!
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you already have Sonos, this is a no brainer to add to your system. It's super light, well made and the sound is BIG. Really nice battery life and flexibility. Love this little speaker!

Small and cumbersome.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound but when traveling; the connection can become unreliable. Switching between Wifi and Bluetooth is not easy and often cannot connect with out jumping through hoops. When part of the home it works seemlessly, although getting it jump between your home speakers and back to the Roam isn't always seemless. Best to do all connections through the SONOS app.

Weak battery, not worth the price
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the speaker, it's a good portable option for moving to areas where I don't have speakers plugged in (closet, pantry, etc) but it's not as loud as my other Sonos speakers and the battery dies too often for me. If the battery lasted longer I'd give it 4 stars. It's easy to use and pairs with the other speakers, but not worth the price imo.
