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.

    Great compliment to my existing Sonos One pair. Great versatility and the wireless charging is very convenient. Wish it was a bit louder, but I’ll take the Sonia integration over the max volume.

    The sound quality is quite good but sometimes I have trouble with connection. Turning it on and off can be somewhat troublesome as the difference between connecting and on/off is small.

    The sound is great. It is very light weight and wonderful to take any where. I gave it 3 stars because it requires that you plug it into your computer to fully charge it. I originally plugged it into a regular outlet the way I do my iPhone and iPad and it sent me a notice that it wasn’t fully charging. It told me to plug it into my computer for a full charge and I did and it charged just right. What if you don’t have a computer handy to charge it? I think it’s impractical.

    I’ve had several and still do own every amplified or connected product Sonos has made in 10 years. The Roam is convenient, lightweight, durable, and it’s familiarity in the Sonos app ecosystem are the absolute reason I chose it. But……and I do mean but…the kids to highs are fairly clean and realistic, and keep your expectations in check that the sound rolls off at the bottom end with barely mid-bass. Even heavily reliant on DSP and mics to continually calibrate it simply isn’t going to reproduce notes under 100hz. Period. Good all around sound but barely a representation of bass notes. Elsewhere it’s a good product and well executed usability/portability.

    Sonos speaker is like no other speaker I’ve had before it puts all other speakers to shame, including JPL, Skullcandy, and beats by Dre. So little costly, but worth every penny, it can also be connected to your Alexa devices.

    This little speaker packs such nice sound in a small body! For the price and size I’m very impressed but that being said the sound is decent and not that of the Sonos one. I would say it’s closer what you would get out of a HomePod mini. I got this as it has wifi and works well with other Sonos speakers and homekit/airplay 2! I use this in my back yard a lot and have no connectivity issues with wifi, and if I did well easy enough I can switch to Bluetooth! I usually play in many speakers at once which is why the airplay 2 is important an I have no issues on that front. Only complaint is the short battery life, but It’s easy enough to throw on a wireless charger!

    Overall: the sound is great and it's awesome for travel, but I wish the battery lasted longer and that it was easier to switch between devices using bluetooth. I like that it uses usb-c to charge, but it's not much of a *roam* if I have to leave it plugged in. I bought this because I wanted an additional Sonos speaker (I have a few of the early Sonos speakers and they have worked flawlessly for years) but wasn't sure if I wanted to splurge yet on the newer version. Plus, I wanted something to play directly from Apple Music since I find it annoying on the Sonos app. 4.5 stars.

    Love, love, love this portable speaker. Highly recommend the wireless charging base to make it easier to charge it. Just a great product and sounds larger than it looks. I've received a lot of compliments. Water resistant is a bonus for those that accidently leave the speaker outside overnight.

    How something so tiny can produce such great sound is astounding. Love it - use it in two different rooms - it's so easy to move and use. btw, after setup I ditch the Sonos app and just use Spotify and Tunein on my iPhone to select/control the speaker.
