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.

    Easy to set up. It ain't no Bose, nor even better than the "echo" dot, but super portable and a smart speaker, so, that's all I got to say 'bout that.

    I love Sonos, and love their products. I still give it a 5 stars because the other things it can do and how loud it is. only one issue I have is the bluetooth the lack of connections when I use my tv and when watch a movie the words are delayed from the speaker Sonos and that is the only disappointment.

    Sound and portability is good. Having to setup via wifi first before setting up Bluetooth is wonky. Power button and pairing is clunky.

    This little speaker has great sound! It was easy to add to my current system. Gave to my husband as a gift and he loves it. This is the third portable speaker we've had and this has the best sound quality and is the smallest of the three. It's also the most expensive.

    Instant, room filling, high quality sound. I listen to everything from polka, to rock, to dubstep, to country, and rap and more, and every single song sounds amazing. Easy to set equalizer and volume limiter, blue tooth for on the go. It's perfect. I work in a loud factory and can hear it fine.

    Love the sound!!! Love the ease of carrying. Reason why I’m not giving it 5 stars is because I can’t get it to work when I travel!!!!!

    Excellent sound for the size. I was sold on using only bose portable speakers until i tried this out. It sounds great and is so compact you can actually take it with you. Im not overly fo d of the sonos app for playing however it works perfect as just a Bluetooth speaker too.

    Best Portable Speaker Ever

    This thing is super impressive. I wanted to get my Dad and Step Mom a speaker for their wedding and went back and forth between this and the Sonos One. They like to go back and forth from the yard to inside their small house so I thought this would be perfect as long as the sound was still good. I was skeptical such a small package could sound so good, but this speaker really delivers. It sounds clear at low volumes and never distorts at high volumes. It can really fill a room and we have never needed 100% volume. Voices sounds really clear and it's great for playing podcasts or pairing to a mac/Apple TV for streaming. Having airplay 2 made the whole thing easier for me to show them how to use. It makes playing music or TV from their iMac or iPhones much easier than swapping Bluetooth connections. Overall I would highly recommend this speaker. It's so small, solid, and sounds way better than it should at its size. I'm considering getting one for myself, and my parents love it.

    I gotta say i was suprised at how full and rich the sound was on this portable speaker. This is my first sonos and i love it. I was a bose person brfore but i sold my bose red color mini and bought this sonos instead. The only thing is that i dont lke the way the speaker adjusts my volume while im showering. I bought this as my bathroom speaker and it lowers the volume when im in the shower on its own when ive set it at the volume i want it at. Its quite annoying but then i just ask alexa to up the volume by 1 and it stsys at that volume.

    Packs some serious punch for a small speaker! Love how it integrates with the Sonos S2 app so I can include it with whole home audio when playing music. Will for sure grab it for hiking and other outdoor fun, but right now as a bathroom speaker it crushes.

    We bought two to add to an older Sonos version. Although they have superior sound quality, one of the units did not stay linked/compatible with APP/other speakers.

    Sound is good, I wouldn't say GREAT, but pretty good for it's size. It's a nicely built little speaker. A bit smaller than I thought it would be. I'm a bit disappointed that I can't add it to a Google Home Speaker Group, though, or Chromecast to it. That was the point of me buying it. There really aren't many options for a true portable Chromecast device since JBL stopped making the Links, and Insignia stopped making their speaker. The new Nests don't have batteries, or even 3rd party accessories

    Perfect speaker for taking outside or on a trip! Great sound quality. I use it with both with WiFi, Bluetooth mode. Alexa built in is a plus for me. Especially like the contemporary look & the fact I can use it in either vertical or horizontal position without hurting sound quality.

    Not sure how, but Sonos has big sound compared to similar sized speakers...love the integration into the sonos system and app...have 4 total speakers now, and easily controlled by the app. Like that this is more portable as well - very pleased, prices are high, but the quality is there.

    Sound quality is great, although bass-heavy; so probably not the best for podcasts but fantastic for background music. The build quality is top-notch.

    Would not hold charge. Otherwise light, small and good sound quality. In my opinion, for price, not worth the splurge.

    The sound quality is very good. I really like the added Bluetooth feature. I gave it a 4 star because the battery charge only seems to last about 5 hours.

    I am a classical music fan and I find this portable bluetooth speaker an astounding solution for enjoying quality sound and utmost portability. Other competitors offer stronger bass but none come even close to the purity of the sound of this speaker. An incredible small wonder!!
