Perfect addition to the Sonos family
This is perfect for extending your music through the home to anywhere you need it. I find it really good for the pool area, having an era 100 playing in the patio and the roam 2 in the pool area is a great combination and you never miss out on sound. The battery is good as well.

Great sound quality
Not as loud as others bigger speakers in the same price range, but the sound quality is amazing, plus the integration with Alexa and adaptative sound

Good sound, crap app.
Sound quality is really good- surprising amount of bass for such a small thing. Even double bass sounds quite good through this Connects easily to my phone for playing Spotify. The only problem i have is that the Sonos app that is supposed to work with it does not work, and you need it to use some of its features. The was upgraded last year, and the new version is quite broken- it does not connect to the speaker, and it requires that i register, but their system won't let me register. Apparently the app has been broken for a year now and they can't fix it. This doesn't make much difference to me- i can still use it the way i want to, and as i said, it sounds great. It's just a bit annoying.

Saved By WiFi Feature.
If it wasn't for the wifi feature this product would not have been on my purchase list. Being able to stream directly from Spotify, Amazon Music etc does not impact your phone or tablet battery. The unit's compact size and rechargeable battery makes it suitable for personal use at home or when travelling. It appears to be well built, is visually attractive and has decent sound and volume. The claimed 10 hour battery life seems a bit of a stretch...perhaps if volume was that low you would need to hold up to your ear. The worst aspect of this unit is the glitchy Sonos App. Google voice assistant is no longer available and you are left with Alexa and Sonos voice assistant. Alexa is pretty decent, Sonos next to useless. The ability to import playlists from Streaming Services into the Sonos App is appealing...in reality it is somewhat of a nightmare and currently not working. I have for the time being given up after multiple attempts at fixing (numerous YouTube & Google searches). Unless you want WiFi, I would not recommend this speaker. Numerous Bluetooth speakers sound significantly better and considerably less expensive.

Things to consider
Up to 10 hours of battery life is practical for day use, but some larger portable speakers offer longer runtime and bigger bass output.
Portability rating
9/10 - very compact 168 x 62 x 60 mm design and light 0.43 kg weight make it easy to carry anywhere
Outdoor suitability
High - IP67 waterproof and dustproof build suits outdoor listening, travel, and poolside use
Battery endurance rating
7/10 - up to 10 hours is solid for casual daily use, but shorter than some larger portable alternatives
Audio quality score
8/10 - clear, balanced sound with strong performance for its size, though it is not as full or bass-heavy as larger speakers
Multi-device compatibility
8/10 - supports Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, AirPlay 2, Sonos multi-room audio, and Amazon Alexa for flexible use across devices and rooms
Key benefits
- Compact design: Small, lightweight build fits easily in a backpack, side pocket, or tight spaces around the home.
- IP67 durability: Dustproof and waterproof construction makes it better suited to outdoor use, beach days, and poolside listening.
- Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity: Lets you use it as a simple portable speaker or connect to your home network for broader streaming options.
- Up to 10 hours battery life: Gives you portable playback for day trips, casual outdoor sessions, and room-to-room listening.
- Automatic Trueplay tuning: Adjusts sound to the environment to help maintain balanced audio in different spaces.
- USB-C charging: Makes recharging simple with a common cable type used across many modern devices.
- Dedicated Bluetooth button: Makes switching to Bluetooth faster and easier than older Sonos portable setup workflows.
- AirPlay 2 support: Adds convenient wireless playback for compatible Apple devices at home.
Q: Can you use Roam 2 as a Bluetooth speaker without Wi-Fi setup
A: Yes. Roam 2 can pair as a Bluetooth speaker straight out of the box by using its dedicated Bluetooth button, so initial Wi-Fi setup is not required. Wi-Fi is still needed for Sonos app features such as multi-room audio and Automatic Trueplay.
Q: Will voice assistants work when you are away from home Wi-Fi
A: No. Sonos Roam 2 needs Wi-Fi and the Sonos app for voice assistant use, so that feature is mainly for home network listening. When you are away from Wi-Fi and using Bluetooth, control comes from your phone or the speaker's buttons.
Q: Does Automatic Trueplay work when Roam 2 is only on Bluetooth
A: No. Automatic Trueplay needs both the Sonos app and a Wi-Fi connection to tune the speaker for its surroundings. If Roam 2 is used only over Bluetooth, it still plays normally, but that automatic tuning feature is not available.
Q: How long does Roam 2 battery last in real use
A: Sonos Roam 2 is rated for up to 10 hours of listening at moderate volume levels. Battery life will be shorter at higher volumes or with heavier use, so it suits day trips and casual portable listening more than all-day playback.
Q: What does the IP67 rating mean for pool or beach use
A: Sonos Roam 2 has an IP67 rating, which means it is dustproof and can handle submersion in 1 metre of water for up to 30 minutes. That suits poolside or beach use, but it is not designed to stay underwater or be used while submerged.
Q: Can this speaker charge on a wireless charger or only USB-C
A: Yes. Sonos Roam 2 can charge with the included USB-C cable or on a compatible wireless charger. Wireless charging is useful for drop-and-go charging at home, but charger compatibility depends on the pad or stand you use.
