RTINGS

The Sonos Roam is the best smart shower speaker we've tested. It offers outstanding voice assistant support with Alexa and Google Assistant built-in and has little trouble registering your commands from far away and in noisier settings. You can activate your assistant with your voice, and you can mute the speaker's mic when you no longer want it to listen to you.

With its Trueplay room correction feature enabled, its sound profile is fairly balanced, making it suitable for listening to a wide variety of audio content. It lacks low-bass, and higher-pitched voices and lead instruments also sound a bit dark at times. Fortunately, there are bass and treble adjustments in the Sonos S2 app to tweak its sound. It's also amazingly built, with an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance that certifies it to be immersible in up to a meter of water for 30 minutes.

Unfortunately, its room correction feature is only available with iOS devices. It also doesn't get very loud, and there's some compression present at max volume that can affect the quality of your audio when the speaker is pushed to its louder volume levels. If you like singing along to your favorite tunes in the shower and rely on voice assistant support, this versatile speaker is still a solid choice.

If you're looking for a waterproof smart speaker, check out the Sonos Roam. While connected to a Wi-Fi network, this small smart speaker offers fantastic voice assistant support with Alexa and Google Assistant built-in. It's rated IP67 for dust and water resistance, making it dust-tight and immersible in a meter of water for 30 minutes. It comes with a room correction feature Sonos calls 'Trueplay', which adjusts the speaker's sound according to the unique acoustics of the space it's placed in. With this feature enabled, it has a balanced sound profile suitable for listening to many different music genres. There are also bass and treble adjustments to tweak its sound.

However, its room correction feature is currently only available on iOS devices. Also, like most small speakers, it struggles to reproduce low bass. There's a lot more compression present at max volume than the Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM 3, so the quality of your audio degrades more as you bump up the volume. It also has a significantly shorter battery life of just over five hours, which isn't ideal for longer listening sessions. That said, it's still a good choice for the price.

Looking for a shower speaker, smart home speaker, and outdoor speaker all in one? The Sonos Roam's small, well-built design makes it a great, versatile option. It offers outstanding voice assistant support with Alexa and Google Assistant built-in and has little trouble registering your commands from far away and in noisier settings, so you don't have to worry about it hearing you over the noise of your shower. You can activate your assistant with your voice and can mute the speaker's mic when you no longer want it to listen to you. It's also rated IP67 for dust and water resistance, meaning it's certified to be dust-tight and immersible in up to a meter of water for 30 minutes, though it doesn't float. Since the manufacturer doesn't specify if you can expose it to soapy water, it's best to avoid placing it in areas of your shower where it can get splashed with soap.

Its sound profile is fairly balanced with its Trueplay room correction feature enabled, making it suitable for listening to different audio content. There are also bass and treble adjustments in the Sonos S2 app to tweak its sound. However, it lacks low-bass, and higher-pitched voices and lead instruments also sound dark at times. Unfortunately, its room correction feature is only available with iOS devices. It doesn't get as loud as the Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM 3, and there's a lot more compression that affects the quality of your audio when the speaker is pushed to its louder volume levels. Its soundstage also doesn't sound as spacious and as immersive.

Consumer Reports

With a rechargeable battery and compact portable design, the Roam is a versatile smart speaker that can also add capabilities to an existing Sonos system. Like the much more expensive Move, the Roam features Bluetooth connectivity, so you can stream music easily from a smartphone. It also allows you to stream your favorite playlist from your phone to other Sonos speakers throughout your home simply by connecting the Roam to your multiroom system via the Sonos mobile app. The Roam is also compatible with Amazon’s Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple AirPlay.The Roam is quite small and claimed to be water-resistant, which makes it the rare Sonos smart speaker you’d toss into a backpack and take to the beach.While the Roam sounds fine for a small portable speaker, the audio quality falls short of the model’s larger siblings. According to our testers, the bass has decent impact for a speaker this size, but the midrange is a bit congested and the sound can get harsh at max volume. In short, the sound quality is competitive with other compact portable models, but it falls well short of the sound of the Sonos One (which now sits just a bit above our $200 price cutoff) and the Ikea Symfonik Bookshelf Speaker, which is considerably less expensive but isn’t a smart speaker.

TechGearLab

The Sonos Roam is the only speaker we tested that's set up to take advantage of the ever more ubiquitous wireless charging stations. If you have a few wireless charging stations around your house for your phone, the Roam can use the same chargers. Just take this little speaker with you throughout your home, and conveniently set it down to charge. The Roam also utilizes your home's WiFi to sync up with other Sonos speakers, so if you've invested in a Sonos system, the Roam can serve as an additional speaker to pump out mids and highs, or seamlessly transfer to Bluetooth and go out to the park with you and your mobile device. Like most speakers we've tested from Sonos, the Roam also sounds great, producing excellent audio at decent volumes.
It's a good thing that this speaker is wireless charging compatible because battery life is not its strong suit. It churns out tunes for just over 10 hours, which isn't that impressive by today's standards, and not enough for a long weekend of camping. If you are a satisfied owner of a Sonos system or the wireless charging features appeal to you, this is the portable speaker you should add to your collection.

It’s far overpriced for such a small speaker that lacks sound. You are paying for convenience for those who already have Sonos speakers throughout their home like me. I do enjoy taking it in and out of house and having my music all playing at once but the sound is weak. If you do not own any Sonos products and just want a portable Bluetooth speaker I would def pass on this item

Overpriced

 So i can see the rom being popular with existing customers who are looking to expand their system with another room of music, such as a bathroom or kitchen, with the option to then take out into the garden or on holiday. I can also see people who are new to sonos opting for the rome as a good, portable speaker solution and also an affordable way to start off a sonos home setup. So, let's briefly cover the pros and cons then, so i think the main pro for the rom is the flexibility of both wi-fi and bluetooth control. This sets the room apart in a very crowded market, as it's not just a portable speaker for taken away, but it can also be part of your sonos home ecosystem and offer another room of music

 So, let's briefly cover the pros and cons then, so i think the main pro for the rom is the flexibility of both wi-fi and bluetooth control. This sets the room apart in a very crowded market, as it's not just a portable speaker for taken away, but it can also be part of your sonos home ecosystem and offer another room of music. The battery life is also a good pro, along with features such as auto, true play and sound. Swap the cons are at the moment, it's not possible to use two sonos roms in stereo mode in bluetooth and of course you can't use the rom as rears to a sonos tv speaker such as the arc or beam

 At home as well, rome will also automatically switch to bluetooth mode if it's lost range of wi-fi or connect to your wi-fi from bluetooth. If it's in range, so connectivity in general is very straightforward. You also have the option to use voice control via amazon or google assistant, or you could use spotify connect or apple airplay 2. If you've got an ios device, the top of the speaker, which is rubberized to be more rugged and durable, features top panel controls such as play, pause, skipping track previous track volume, controls and a microphone privacy button for muting the voice assistant temporarily, the shape of the Speaker has been designed in such a way, so it doesn't roll around as easily as other portable speakers and the roam will automatically adjust whether it's in a vertical or horizontal position

Sonos Roam Lowdown: Everything You Need To Know In 5 Minutes

1.  You can set a volume limiter on the Roam, but it doesn't actually show what the volume setting is at.  When I increase volume on my mobile device, I don't know if that is just the bluetooth volume on my phone or of the Roam itself.  

  To use it, you must have a Sonos account.  After setting that up, you can add the Roam as a device and set it up to hook up to your wifi network.  This failed for me twice even though my mobile device, Roam, and wireless adapter were all in the same room.  

This does require the use of the Sonos app.  While the app is pretty streamlined for the most part, I feel that they can definitely make it better.  To use it, you must have a Sonos account.  After setting that up, you can add the Roam as a device and set it up to hook up to your wifi network

  This failed for me twice even though my mobile device, Roam, and wireless adapter were all in the same room.

 Now, first things: first, when we got our hands on the room, we all commented on how small and light it was not that you would be holding it all the time, but it's definitely lightweight, and i can imagine taking this with me - camping a little day trips Out and about or some sort of activity, as it's only 0.43 kilograms, it does give you the confidence to throw it around a bit, and i wouldn't panic if i dropped the roam like i did with the move now in terms of its dimensions.

Sonos Roam In-Depth Review: The Portable Speaker To Beat?

 It can handle picnic duty for a small group at the park or come for a ride-along on your bike. And yes, it shines in the shower. But if you’re leading a dance class or trying to entertain guests at a barbecue, these are the types of situations where the larger Move easily wins out and proves its worth. Think of it this way: the more people that will be listening, the sooner you’ll turn to a speaker that isn’t the Roam

The Roam can fill in any nook of your living space — the bathroom, the garage, wherever — that doesn’t have another full-time Sonos speaker in it. On the go with Bluetooth, it’s easy to use and kicks out clear, satisfying sound for its size. Sonos needs to work on keeping the Roam’s smarts together when you’re on different Wi-Fi, and stereo pairing over Bluetooth should’ve been a feature on day one. But neither is enough to sink the overall value of Sonos’ latest speaker

 But if you’re leading a dance class or trying to entertain guests at a barbecue, these are the types of situations where the larger Move easily wins out and proves its worth. Think of it this way: the more people that will be listening, the sooner you’ll turn to a speaker that isn’t the Roam. 

 As long as you don’t expect miracles from its compact size, I think you’ll end up happy. 

The tiny, lightweight speaker has a ton of functionality, but don’t expect sound quality miracles

Good Sound, compact design, integrates well with SONOS platform. Battery seems to drain faster than I would have thought, but still acceptable. One draw back to this bundle package is they don't include a secondary block and charger, which would have been nice as price point is north of $200 and the base is a little clunky to grab and go. Nonetheless, the cord is a generic type which doesn't cost much

Pretty Good!

It's a shame that you can't call on the voice assistant while using Bluetooth, but it's certainly not a dealbreaker &ndash; and we daresay the experience of using Google Assistant over Bluetooth would be more frustrating than helpful.

Following in the footsteps of the larger Sonos Move, the Roam comes with both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, which means it can work as a portable speaker as well as part of your wider multi-room Sonos system &ndash; and with Google Assistant and Alexa onboard, it doubles up a smart speaker too.&nbsp;

Some portable speakers can look a little garish, but the Sonos Roam retains the company's understated design aesthetic.

There's no shortage of powerful bass frequencies with the Sonos Roam, making it ideal for listening outside.
