Great size, Solid balance, Surprisingly decent bass, Supports the virtual assistants with a microphone, Alwayson TruePlay can be quite useful, and you can turn it off if you don't like it, Works as both a Sonos multiroom speaker and as a Bluetooth speaker
Battery drains pretty seriously while unused, Could do with a touch more volume
If the goal of delivering the Sonos Move in a smaller size was the intention, it's pretty clear Sonos has nailed it, or managed to get bloody close with the Roam.Simply put, the Roam is a success, achieving excellent sound both at home and to go, and maki...

Great design, Excellent connectivity options, Light, Cool features
Bass is a touch gratuitous
The versatility and portability of the Sonos Roam ticks all of the boxes. The extra features thrown in and the fact it'll play nice with any existing Sonos systems are added bonuses, but it's just as worthy as a standalone Bluetooth speaker. Sonos should...

great sound, Trueplay, easy to use, wifi and Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, water and shock resistant, optional Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa, small and light, USBC and Qi wireless charging, battery can be replaced through service, very long so
battery life only about 10 hours, takes a long time to charge, cannot be grouped as part of a Sonos home cinema system, not cheap
The Roam is easily one of the best portable speakers and, unlike the majority of the competition, it works even better indoors.It isn't the biggest or the loudest and doesn't have thumping bass or super-long battery life. But the Roam produces quality, we...
