Sonos Move (Lunar White)

We took a Sonos speaker on its first trip outside the house and off of Wi-Fi.

• +

  Outstanding sound with strong base and a sound signature that auto-tunes itself depending on where you place it. Splash resistant (IP56). Works with any existing Sonos setup. Microphones for barking at Google or Alexa voice assistants. Drop resistant. Bluetooth compatible.

• -

  Cannot use the Sonos app while in Bluetooth mode. No advanced Bluetooth features (can only connect to one device at a time via Bluetooth). Not submersible in water, and touch controls tend to go haywire when wet. Expensive.

Nos encontramos ante el primer producto portable de SONOS, y estoy seguro que ha sido un gran desafío para sus ingenieros. El resultado ha sido muy satisfactorio bajo mi punto de vista. Moves es un altavoz que hereda todo lo bueno de productos como SONOS One y lo extiende a un dispositivo portable.

  Diseño impecable para poder moverlo con una sola mano, Base de carga compacta y ligera, Sonido a la altura de cualquier altavoz de su tamaño no portable, Resistencia IP56, Gran calidad de construcción, WiFi y AirPlay 2, Integración con Alexa y Google Assistant

  La duración de la batería no es la prometida y es sistema de hibernación es mejorable

Expectations were high for Sonos Move, the multi-room audio company’s first portable, Bluetooth-compatible speaker. Dangerously high, you could argue: Sonos says its users have been asking for a completely wire-free speaker pretty much from day one, and that’s plenty of time for an outlandish...

• +

  Sonos style subtly integrates ruggedization, Sounds great, inside and out, Automatic Trueplay is simple and effective, Long battery life and fast recharging, Replaceable battery is reassuring

• -

  Expensive for a Bluetooth speaker, Bluetooth experience lacks some of the Sonos niceties

If you can live with its price and size, the Sonos Move is an excellent portable wireless speaker that expands the play area of your Sonos system.

• +

  A solid portable speaker for an existing Sonos system. Sturdy, water-resistant, dustproof and voice-enabled (on a Wi-Fi network) with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa. Up to 10 hours of playback. Autotuning system calibrates to any environment. The battery is replaceable.

• -

  Somewhat expensive, the Move is big and hefty for a portable speaker. Battery life can be adversely impacted by how you use it.

The Sonos Move is a powerful multi-room smart speaker with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice control, as well as a durable, battery-powered design you can use anywhere.

• +

  Powerful audio with rich bass depth and bright highs, Portable, dust- and water-resistant build, Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice control

• -

  Expensive, Heavy, Sculpted, mono sound signature not for everyone

“Built to go anywhere, but just as happy at home, the Sonos Move may be the only speaker you need.”

• +

  Superb build quality, Integration with Sonos systems, Sounds especially good outdoors, User-replaceable battery

• -

  Sonos app doesn’t work over Bluetooth, Big size, big price

The $399 Sonos Move marks the next evolution of smart speakers. With Auto TruePlay spatial tuning, a rugged design and built-in virtual assistants, it's an excellent indoor-outdoor audio device.

• +

  Superb audio quality, Built-in Automatic TruePlay technology, Easy Wi-Fi-to-Bluetooth connection conversion, Comprehensive durability

• -

  Pricey, No smart features in Bluetooth mode, Heavy for a portable device

The Sonos Move is a great speaker but it might not be for you. If you already are a part of or plan on joining the Sonos ecosystem then this is a great addition to your setup.

• +

  Reliable connection, Solid Sonos app, IP56 rating, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, Microphones work well, can be toggled off, Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa compatibility, The charging cradle is great

• -

  Price, AAC and SBC only, no aptX, The handle is not for carrying the speaker long distances, Speaker is too heavy and awkward to be truly portable

If you already own some Sonos products then get the Move. If you don’t, weigh your options very carefully since a lot of the features I liked the most about it won’t be available to you

• +

  Sound quality is superb, It's built to last, A portable Sonos speaker is very useful

  It's pretty hefty, The cost is significant, Battery life could be better

  Expensive, Mic pickup a bit iffy, Really heavy

I'm very satisfied with my Sonos Move. I use it to play a variety of music in the kitchen, including music through Google by voice command and radio through the Sonos app. The sound quality is pretty good and the bluetooth capability is very handy when I wish to use the Move outside the range of my...

• +

  Good sound quality, portable, uses bluetooth and wifi, plays from many sources

• -

  Somewhat heavy, a few controls are on the back of the unit which makes them hard to reach

This is a great speaker! Wonderful sound! Amazing bass! Easy to set-up! Very easy to use! And it is very portable! We have had several wonderful evenings sitting on the deck, listening to our own music stored on our computer, as well as Sonos radio and Sirius XM. Again, it is simply a great speaker.

A little pricy, but this is a great standalone surround speaker that will fill any room. I love the versatility of being able to use it outdoors with bluetooth as well. I have several Bose products and love them as well, but I like the Sonos Move better than it's competitors for it's rich sound and...

I’ve been waiting for an outdoor speaker from Sonos for a long time, this one is everything that I hoped for and more. Great battery life solid construction and still sounds beautiful.

As expected with Sonos, great sound. Easy setup. Solid quality speaker. Very nice to be able to take Sonos outside and everywhere. Definitely worth the money.

I love the Sonos Move! I have a base in the bedroom and in the living room. I am so much more productive with music on as opposed to the television. The sound quality is superb!

I'm really blown away at how good this little speaker sounds, the software services that come with it, the apps (and Alexa) that control it, and the overall product engineering. I play a wide variety of music and talk and Sonos Move handles it.

• +

  Great software control, good smooth balanced sound.

  It's a little heavy, but I'm sure it's the battery that comprises much of the weight. But the trade off (increased play time) is acceptable.

I've had the Sonos Move for two weeks now. At first the overall sound was less accommodating to my room as I had expected. But after awhile it became noticeably better. The True Play feature really works, and in this case, its on a mobile speaker, so it will always adjust to the environment.

I have several Sonos speakers in our residences, and have been waiting for them to introduce an outdoor speaker. They again have come through with a great product. Sound is excellent and battery life is perfect. I will always recommend their products.
