At a glance

It suits homes that use both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, with handy extras like AirPlay 2, automatic sound tuning and a charging base. Its main limitation is that it prioritises portability and convenience over the bigger, fuller sound of larger fixed speakers.

Things to consider
It is more versatile than many home-only speakers, but larger premium models can deliver wider, more room-filling sound and deeper bass.
Multi-room flexibility
Works with a Sonos system over Wi-Fi for room-to-room listening at home, while Bluetooth adds flexibility away from home.
Portability rating
9/10 - compact, durable and battery-powered with a charging base for easy grab-and-go use.
Music quality score
8/10 - strong, balanced sound for its size with automatic tuning, though larger speakers can sound fuller.
Smart home compatibility
Apple AirPlay 2, Sonos app ecosystem, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth streaming
Outdoor suitability
9/10 - IP67 waterproofing, drop-resistant build and long battery life make it well suited to outdoor use.
Key benefits
- Portable Design: Compact build makes it easy to move from room to room or take outdoors.
- IP67 Waterproofing: Handles water exposure and dusty environments better for poolside or beach use.
- 24-Hour Battery Life: Supports up to 24 hours of playback for day-long listening without frequent recharging.
- Wireless Charging Base: Included base makes topping up the speaker simple between listening sessions.
- Wi-Fi 6 Connectivity: Gives you a stable home streaming option when you are connected to your wireless network.
- Bluetooth 5.3: Lets you stream directly away from home without relying on your Wi-Fi network.
- Automatic Trueplay Tuning: Adjusts the sound to better suit the space around the speaker.
- Power Bank Function: Can charge another device when you need extra convenience on the go.
Q: Can it play over Bluetooth away from my home WiFi?
A: Yes. Sonos Play supports Bluetooth 5.3, so you can stream directly from a phone or tablet when you are away from home WiFi. WiFi 6 is useful at home for Sonos system use, but it is not required for portable listening.
Q: Does Sonos Play join a Sonos multi-room system at home?
A: Yes. Sonos Play can connect over WiFi 6 and work as part of a Sonos setup around the home. When you take it out, Bluetooth gives you a separate direct streaming option, so the speaker suits both fixed and portable use.
Q: Can this speaker charge a phone while music is playing?
A: Yes. Sonos Play includes a power bank function, so it can top up another device when you are away from a power point. It is best treated as a convenience feature for smaller devices, not a substitute for a dedicated laptop charger.
Q: Is it suitable for beach trips and poolside use?
A: Yes. Sonos Play has an IP67 rating and a drop-resistant design, so it is built for splashes, dust and being moved around outdoors. That makes it suitable near pools or at the beach, but it still needs charging access for longer trips.
Q: How does the included charging base work day to day?
A: The included charging base is designed for easy drop-on top-ups at home, so you do not need to plug a cable into the speaker each time. It is convenient for regular use between outings, but it still relies on mains power where the base is placed.
