Sonos Move 2 Review

Ideal for moving around your home and into the garden, the Sonos Move 2 is a powerful, portable speaker with all-day battery life.

Excellent battery life ; High-quality audio ; Works as a regular Sonos speaker at home

Expensive ; Line-in adaptor is optional extra

With its redesigned audio system, the Sonos Move 2 adds two tweeters into the mix to deliver stereo, as well as a wider, less positional soundscape than its predecessor. There’s no escaping that this is an expensive speaker, but there’s nothing else...

Sonos Move 2 review: portable sound just got better

The updated Move 2 costs a little more but it you want to take your music with you, it can't be beaten

Big sound with lots of bass ; Great battery life ; Works nicely indoors and outdoors

Physically big and heavy ; No spatial audio ; Era 100 speakers sound as good

The Sonos Move 2 is the ultimate portable Bluetooth speaker but is also just as at home indoors, providing an experience that’s very close to the Era 100. If you want a speaker that delivers great sound both indoors and outdoors, this is the one to...

Sonos Move 2 review

The Move 2 remains a unique offering from Sonos – but is it too expensive now?

Sounds clearer, more detailed and more agile than predecessor ; Big, bold sound ; Excellent streaming features ; Longer battery life

Very expensive ; Still too big to be truly ‘portable’ ; No hi-res support ; Rivals sound more nuanced, time better and are more spacious

The Sonos Move 2 has carved its niche as a feature-packed portable wireless speaker, but there are better-performing rivals at this premium price point

Sonos Move 2 review: Fantastic sound for every room (and the outdoors)

The Sonos Move 2 isn't the smallest of portable speakers, but produces larger-than-life sound and can be taken outdoors. Just don't bring it for a dip. #sonos #move2

IP56-rated dust and water resistance ; Excellent audio performance (even if high-res audio is missing) ; Fits seamlessly with existing Sonos gear, but works fine on its own ; Wireless-charging dock ; Stereo playback out of the box ; Matte Olive finish...

Not exactly cheap ; Rather big and chonky ; Missing support for Google Assistant

Sonos Move 2 review: same body, better soul

The Sonos Move 2 improves on the first-gen Move speaker with better battery life, better sound, and more features. But Google fans may want to look elsewhere.

Balanced and immersive sound 24-hour battery Analog line-in (with optional adapter) Charges your devices

Awkward to carry No Google Assistant option

“Whether indoors or outside, the Sonos Move 2 is a highly versatile smart speaker.”

Sonos Move 2 review: a slam-dunk sequel

When you're considering the sequel of any tech product, it's easy to jump to the conclusion that it's “everything the original should've been.” And as I've been testing out the new $449 Sonos Move 2 speaker over the last several days, it's been...

Improved stereo sound ; Much longer battery life ; Supports line-in playback

No more Google Assistant ; Can’t be used as a speakerphone ; Hefty for a portable speaker

As a complete package, the Move 2 is a slam-dunk sequel that will only get better when you factor in Sonos’ long-term software support. The company needed to draw on lessons learned from other products to get here, but anyone who loved the first Move...
