The Sonos Roam 2 is an absolute game-changer! I’ve been using it for a few weeks now, and it has quickly become my go-to speaker for both indoor and outdoor listening. The build quality is top-notch—sturdy, sleek, and truly portable. It’s lightweight and perfectly sized, making it easy to take anywhere.
The sound quality is phenomenal. Despite its compact size, the Roam 2 delivers rich, full-bodied audio with impressive bass and clear highs. Whether I’m relaxing at home or having a picnic at the park, the sound fills the space beautifully. The automatic Trueplay tuning is a fantastic feature, adjusting the sound to match the environment seamlessly.
Battery life is excellent, easily lasting through long days of use. The wireless charging option is super convenient, and I love how effortlessly it integrates with my existing Sonos system. Switching between Wi-Fi and Bluetooth is smooth, making it perfect for on-the-go use.
Overall, the Sonos Roam 2 is a must-have for anyone who values quality sound and portability. It’s the perfect blend of smart features, durability, and exceptional audio performance. Highly recommended!

I’ve recently committed to all Sonos for sound products and haven’t regretted it one bit. This little guy is great for quick trips, and packs great sound in a small footprint

I can't say enough great things about Sonos and their speakers! The Roam 2 portable speaker is amazing! It sounds so much bigger than it physically is, and it connects without a flaw to my iPhone, turntable, computer, etc. Using the Sonos app, I can connect multiple Sonos speakers (Roams, soundbars, etc.) into one giant, great-sounding sound system. Total game changer! I suffered for a few years using some Apple HomePod minis, which sounded ok, but wouldn't hold a connection worth a darn. Sonos totally blows those out of the water! If you're looking for a compact portable speaker, buy the Sonos Roam 2--you won't be sorry!

So I was disappointed that the 2 had already come out and the salesmen tried to sell me the one for more with the wireless charger. I returned for the less expensive two which I can now carry around and enjoy our at the pool. Not super loud but great quality. JBM louder, but quality way better with Sonos.

I purchased the Roam 2 portable smart speaker to use at work. It has blue tooth so I can play my Apple music playlists or if I chose to use the Sonos app, I can use the many radio stations they make available at no charge. This is definitely a great purchase. I had some trouble with the Sonos app not working because I was using public WiFi. It was resolved as soon as I used private WiFi. The Sonos support team was great and helped me with that issue. I would definitely recommend you buy this speaker.

Over the years, I’ve had numerous portable speakers, including JBL and Apple HomePod minis. I can definitely say without a doubt, the Sonos Roam 2 is hands-down the best sounding, most durable, and longest-lasting portable speaker I’ve ever used. This speaker is amazing! Connection is flawless and it’s simple to set up using the Sonos app. The bass response and volume are incredible for a speaker this small. Buy them in pairs and use them around your home. Great job, Sonos!

I have 6 speakers total from Sonos, 3 are Roam 2. I thought these would be great to have 1 in the kitchen and 2 outside to be movable since they recharge. What I have found is that when they are working, they sound great. However, they cut out and loose signal a lot. All 3 lose signal regularly. Plugged in or not and they are all within 5 feet of the WiFi router. We have 2gb, lots of bandwidth and nothing to interfere at such close range. I would return them if I could, but I bought them before summer hit. My other 3 Sonos speaker are also wifi and do not have this issue and are all further from the router.

Was interfacing with Bluetooth on Mac mini. It had a good sound, but kept dropping to monologue. I think it was just the interface. Wasn’t right for my needs.

Much much much much (should I go on?) better than the original. This speaker finally allows you to connect via Bluetooth without having to first connect with WiFi (which was a nightmare to travel with)
I wish they would let me replace my original with this newer model at no cost for all of the hassle it’s caused.

We are thrilled to hear that you’re enjoying the Roam 2 and that it’s made a big difference in your experience, especially with the Bluetooth functionality!

1 speaker is good, paired with a 2nd is phenomenal for their form factor. I did a blind comparison with a set of bookshelf Paradigm speakers with my wife, and to her untrained ear, they sounded just as good. Don't hesitate in buying these.
