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.

    Very good sound for size. Portability is great. Biggest issue is with switching from one Sonos system to another. That process is cumbersome. Bluetooth is a much easier process. Still think it’s a nice speaker for those who need a portable speaker for their Sonos system

    Fantastic small speaker in size with a very large volume. Picks up Bluetooth or Sonos speakers. You can make requests from Alexa just by using your voice. Great buy and very portable. As usual Sonos has made a quality product at a reasonable price!! I highly recommend this speaker to all. It charges quickly and last for a very long time. I played mine for over 8 hours and didn’t need it anymore and soI charged it; however, it wasn’t out of charge.

    Short/bad battery?

    I’ve had my speaker for just over a year (a year and 4 days) and its battery has already died. Will not charge. I don’t use very often, but when I do, I don’t charge it until it’s dead. The last two months of using it, it would die after just a few hours of use rather than a few days. It’s unfortunate it didn’t last long with even mild use. When I would use it in my office, I would connect to our tv (maybe 15ft away around the corner) and the audio cracks in and out as if it has a bad connection. I could get over the cracking despite its annoyance, and until a couple months ago, I’ve had a great time using it. The battery dying has me giving it a ‘fair’ review.

    Excellent speaker from Sonos to take with you anywhere. I have waited for years for Sonos to come out with type of speaker and they finally delivered in a major way. The speaker has great sound as with all Sonos products but this one can fit in your pocket and still deliver great quality away from home. This is a must buy for portable speaker lovers. I have the beats and the Bose portable speakers and this one is the best of the three.

    So far so good. Had what seemed to be a little hiccup in the first week when the battery drained to zero, but it appeared first like a software problem. Turns out I just was impatient with the recharge. I love that it works well with the rest of my Sonos equipment.

    It has great power for such a small sleek unit. Actually smaller than expected but still worth the purchase. The only thing is that the power and volume buttons are hard to see clearly. But overall happy with this addition to our existing outdoor Sonos set up.

    First impression - smaller then expected, however, sound was richer than anticipated for such a small footprint. Rubberized for grip and very portable. Linked with WiFi effortlessly - the main reason I purchased this devise over competitors. I use it on the deck and around the outside of the house where WiFi is accessible which frees my phone from needing to be in range as would be the case in Bluetooth mode; another option here as well.

    “Is that music coming from the restaurant’s sound system?” That was the question I got during a birthday party at a fairly loud restaurant while I played music for my 95 year old mom to entertain her during her party. This little unit pumps out professional sounding music which will knock your socks off - even in a loud restaurant! I am so happy with this purchase and have been enjoying this Sonos portable speaker so much!!

    You NEED to connect it to the app for Bluetooth.

    The audio quality of this speaker is great. It gets really loud. The only issue is that to even get the Bluetooth pairing to work you HAVE to connect it to the app. It’s so odd that you can’t connect it right out of the box to Bluetooth.
