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.

    Small footprint but powerful sound. Excellent sound quality for being outdoor speaker! Love the airplay compatibility.

    Excellent sound, size & shape for portability. Set up could be tricky for tech challenged people but it walks you through it well.

    We’re a small business Home A/V Installation Service that focuses on practical solutions that are future proofed to a certain degree. Sonos offers ease and practicality with a level of precision like no other. I tell my customers all the time it won’t literally happen but on the level of product comparison; Sonos has the tech and product level that redefines music and could put Bose in their place to out of business. Sonos is to retail shopping what Amazon has done to the world.

    Love the Sonos line. Wanted a speaker that was smaller and more portable than my Roam. Small size but great sound.

    Definitely worth buying. I was very curious about how the sound quality would be coming from such a small device but it sounds amazing! I have several Sonos SL speakers throughout my house. I keep the Roam plugged into power in my living room and basically treat it like a SL when playing the same tunes throughout the house, then if I go outside to BBQ or mow, I unplug and bring it with me. Anyone who has multiple SL's I would recommend trying this. It's a better option then buying another SL.

    Stopped connecting to our Sonos system fairly quickly and can't seem to get it reset. It takes too much time to keep trying. Maybe it was just a lemon. It also was less loud than the Sonos One. We got it to use by the pool, but it just doesn't do the job. We use a Sonos One instead.

    When it's working it's sounds great, it does drop off our Sonos network often and sometimes has to be reset multiple times to work but lately it's been working well, even using Bluetooth. Battery life is very good for such a small device.

    Half baked portable Sonos.

    +airplay 2 + Bluetooth - The battery on this product is trash. Every time I want to use it its dead and I manually power is off between uses. - I cannot believe how Sonos s2 ecosystem has become. I used to have Bose sound touch systems (and thought that was bad) and moved to Sonos and Sonos has become buggy now. (Bose’s new smart home system works better then my Sonos gear.) -I bought this as a 2nd try on Sonos and it sounds ok but the tweeter crackles when you use Spotify connect and the volume “steps” on Spotify connect is too annoying. This seems like a decent first try for a portable Sonos but I would wait for the next version. This one feels half baked. Summary: It is priced exactly as it should. At 169$ the bugs can be forgiven. Under 200$ Perfection is not expected. Good enough is the “new normal”
